Predictions: 6 of 12 Winners, 5 Perfect, 450 Points   |   Tied for 938th

Cain Velasquez returns as the champion to prove that he once again can be the best in the world. But standing in his way once again is Antonio "Bigfoot" Silva. Cain Velasquez coming off his big wins over Bigfoot Silva and the champion in Junior dos Santos to reclaim his belt. Where as Bigfoot is coming of 2 big victories, including once undefeated Travis Browne and in a huge upset over Strikeforce and K-1 champion Alistair Overeem.

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

I think he was cautious due to the weight cut so I'll give him a pass. I was NOT that impressed.

I picked Bowles as most did, but I'm still not really sure if I believe in him as a top 10 bantamweight.  Maybe it's just me having a hard time getting over the whole "I don't look at all like an MMA fighter" thing.

This is an interesting fight.

I'm not a fan of Roop, but he usually wins fights he's supposed to lose and Bowles has had a long layoff, so Roop might be able to pull out the win here.

I remember when Bowles beat Torres for the WEC bantamweight title. That was a huge upset back then and came out of nowhere because Torres legit and built as one of the best fighters in the world and Bowles just put him to sleep out of nowhere.

Good times.

I'm starting to regret not picking Teixeira by sub.  Te Huna is tough as hell but Teixeira is such a beast.

Oh ****, Bowles looks tired ... and why the **** is Roop's corner lying to his face??? Tell him he stole the round (even though he didn't steal it, he won it quite clearly) ...
