Predictions: 6 of 12 Winners, 5 Perfect, 450 Points | Tied for 938th
They are set to meet again for a heavyweight contest for the UFC Heavyweight Championship.
And for the co-main event we have a great striking battle in the former UFC heavyweight champion Junior dos Santos and the former K-1 champion and PRIDE FC veteran and modern day cinderella man, Mark "Super Samoan" Hunt. A true test in striking to find out who could be next for the title.
And for a battle of Light Heavyweights we have the Brazilian sensation in Glover Teixeira taking on an Australian contender in James Te Huna.
And to start out the Pay Per View Night we have 2 Lightweight matches starting with Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone vs a man making his UFC debut KJ Noons, and after that 2 top 10 contenders in TJ Grant and Gray "The Bully" Maynard will battle it out to see where they stand in the Lightweight Division.
A great night of fights for a great main card along with a must watch prelims.
Make your predictions and enjoy a great night of fights for the UFC Heavyweight Championship

No matter what, I'm still sitting in shock over the Roop/Bowles fight. @LnxGuy - I agree, where does Bowles go from here. He just hasn't been the same since coming to the UFC. Maybe being among the elite is just too much for him. I don't know, but I really thought that this was Bowles fight for the taking.

Strikes landed means less than controlling your opponent.
People need to stop acting as if Thompson didn't clear beat Burrell. He clinched him against the cage and took him down and pretty much controlled the majority of the fight.
It's a given he won the fight despite the amount of strikes landed.
Also the judges don't watch the fights counting how many strikes a fighter's landed, they just watch to see who they thought was more dominant in the round and in MMA the fighter who controls where the fight takes place for the majority of the round is the winner.

Overhyped most definitely. He will never be a top tier fighter.
EVEN IF THERE'S A FIRE!

Roop is a good fighter, don't get me wrong, and you have to beat a fighter who's gassed and he did so in spectacular fashion, but he hasn't suddenly become a contender ...

He fights at 170 aka the division filled with wrestlers. Good luck with the run.
But that's just my opinion.
