I am liking this card. Some good style matchups. Rampage/Hamill and Alves/Story are similar, as are Struve/Browne and Grove/Boetsch.
I like the forum feature that shows where u place and also how many people have participated. I wonder how many more than 818 there will be when it gets closer to the event. I recall Gregory saying there were 1400 people that took part in UFC 129. Or it may have been the event before that... I don't remember. You wouldn't expect 130 to get as much activity as 129. Gregory is it possible to display that number on each event page? I want to see how many people made picks for other events, like UFC 128.

I have to use the html editor so hopefully the above image works. Not picked any submissions. I'd expect one of Struve, Grove, or Barao to win via sub, but individually I think each fight is more likely to finish the way I've predicted. Alves/Story is hardest fight to call. I can see Story grinding out a tough decision. That said, I don't expect I'll make any changes to my picks.

Quinton Jackson (71%, 82%, 7-1) Matt Hamill
Frank Mir (55%, 48%, 6-2) Roy Nelson
Travis Browne (56%, 30%, 3-5) Stefan Struve
Thiago Alves (65%, 83%, 8-0) Rick Story
Brian Stann (55%, 72%, 5-3) Jorge Santiago
Miguel Torres (50%, 71%, 6-2) Demetrious Johnson
Kendall Grove (58%, 60%, 4-4) Tim Boetsch
Gleison Tibau (73%, 93%, 8-0) Rafaello Oliveira
Michael McDonald (74%, 88%, 8-0) Chris Cariaso
Renan Barao (75%, 74%, 4-4) Cole Escovedo
The most surprising this is that Travis Browne is slight favorite with bookmakers, but Stefan Struve is heavily favored on Tapology, and slightly favored at BE. I wonder why this is. Is it because Struve is a bigger name, or maybe because he's a fan favorite?
Like I said I'm very surprised all 8 staff members at BE picked Alves over Story. Also, Renan Barao is more favored by bookmakers than he is by Tapology and BE. BE's 4-4 is surprising here.
