Predictions: 8 of 12 Winners, 2 Perfect, 480 Points   |   Tied for 799th

Lots of FOTN candidates here.  Mighty mouse never disappoints, Ellenberger is exciting and MacDonald is always worth watching.


I think that Moraga and Dodson are the only ones in the weight class that have a chance at beating Might Mouse.


I for one think that with all these FS1 events, 2013 will have better free cards than the PPVs.




What does everyone think of this care since it's final and less than 10 days away?  Let's get some talk going since I think I am the only one on Tapology right now....lmao!

I gave the 3rd to Riley.... maybe a judge gave him the 1st?

Impressed with Salas' footwork and boxing but he did way too much backtracking. I wouldn't have been surprised if they gave it to Riley for Octagon control and aggression. If you want the reward that a perfectly timed counter brings then you have to have the balls to stay in the pocket.

Did you all see the TUF preview? Looks pretty good, I hope it is as good, if not better, than last season.

@C_Arnoud, not having time to review your picks is the best way to have a good night ... every time I review mine I make dumb changes :)))

That TUF preview showed how ridiculously blown out of proportion the Ronda/Miesha rivalry is and I don't care because it's going to be entertaining as ****! 

I hate Miesha's dumb attitude though....she acts like she somehow earned it when she is literally there by default. I'm excited to see ******nozzle Caraway's inevitable coaching position and if he shows the world how truly dumb he really is. 

Dana is being a **** calling it "By far the biggest rivalry in TUF history" also..

Shamrock vs Tito? Rashad vs Rampage? It's an interesting rivalry but nothing beats the "You a *****. Treat me like a *****" incident. Nothing.
