Didn't think so.

I don't know about "Night of the Underdogs", but I do think Waldburger will armbar Amagov in the first round

You heard it here first lol

I feel much better knowing I'mnot the only one who took Waldburger and Marquardt, both are very underrated

I was going back and forth between those picks, more so on Waldburger. I saw the weigh-ins yesterday and decided to go with Waldburger because he looked huge. Lombard looked really good at WW but he was already in great shape at 185 and did not have success.

Yeah he's a big WW dude, and Amagov is overrated IMO, and he hasn't looked good since before the Lawler KO.

Waldburger is a beast in the first round, but has shown that he fade. Amagov is rounded enough to earn a decision over him and avoid being subbed. Lombard/Marquardt is another super tough fight to pick on this card, but I decided to go with Marquardt based on his gas tank and third-round surges. I expect him to lose the first.

-edit- my bad, I had it on the post a reply page and didn't see skelliher's post directed at nojuice

Yeah, Amagov showed some really unorthodox striking but the fight with Spang was pretty lackluster and I think Burger's UFC experience will help. Waldburger is the type of submission guy who if he gets an arm you're in big trouble.

Recent tweet by DFW:

'Cain vs JDS, Roy Nelson vs Cormier and Diego Sanchez vs Gilbert Martinez!!!! Are u ****ting me??? Pumped'

I know there's some tapologists that remember the Gil Martinez joke hahaha. Thought that was pretty funny.

I love how Dana talks **** to people on twitter too. A guy corrected him on the Melendez thing, he responds by calling him a 'crackhead looking goofball.' hahahahahahaha

Yeah, he kept on arguing with the kid to the point where I had to follow him on Twitter. I can't believe he's the president and the face of the UFC and he acts like a 14 year old child on Twitter.

He should be ashamed of himself and should start potraying himself like a professional.

It's funny how he'll fire guys over Twitter jokes about ****s and such bs, yet he's arguing with fans and offending fans on Twitter. Hypocrisy at its finest.

I haven't watched the full set of prelims in a while, but tonight I will.

I think the fight I'm most excited about is Kyoji's debut. It's going to be hilarious if he gets KO'd since I'm so psyched about it. I hope not and I'm confident he won't.

Like I said before, I see that fight going down similar to his fight with Ian Loveland.

The rubber match will be alot like the 2nd fight, one sided beat down....JDS cant stop the takedown, so that means Cain turns into a 8 time world champion k-1 striker again....
