I for one cannot wait until this event happens.  There's a few good fights on the card already, not to mention the winner of TUF 17 will be crowned.  Also the next TUF coach opposite or Rousey will be revealed as well.  It'll be a good card.  Let's hope no injuries affect any of these fights.

Oh and maybe not too confident in picking Faber to sub Jorgensen in the first ... Jorgensen's tough and can survive a decision loss, but I have a gut feeling Faber's subbing him in the 1st ...

@yoss

You chose Browne and Bubba!!  I got Gabe upsetting Browne.  Although I (again) made my pick based off personal dislike for Travis.  I didn't like his attitude after losing to Bigfoot, nor did I like the way he thought he was Bruce Jon Jones Lee out there.

Still, I like Gabe to upset him.

Bubba....I dunno....I picked against him for same reasons.  Not a fan.


**EDIT** Browne might be well prepared and focused for this fight though, cuz he really took his loss to BF badly.

I'm not  a fan of Bubba either, I just think that without the weight cuts (which were hard on him) and with a full camp at Jacksons he's too much for inexperienced and bad cardio Gilbert.

Bubba's got way too much experience for him. He takes this easily ... maybe even finishes ...

Yea I find it hard to choose Gilbert.  He's the fellow with the massive muscles and glasses right? 
I don't even know his background but he just seems inexperienced.  He was literally a lay n pray artist on TUF if I recall correctly too.

No way that guy doesn't gas, being 185 with muscles that big.

Still, I picked him on my phantom-pick list haha.

I liked Hester on the show, Marunde not so much. Hope Clint can get the job done here.

10-9 Hester hope the judges get that right, Marunde did nothing with the takedowns...

Not the most exciting round, but I gave it to Hester 10-9. Marunde got two takedowns, but did absolutely nothing with either one of them.
