Predictions: 7 of 11 Winners, 1 Perfect, 435 Points   |   Tied for 552nd

Depending on who you ask, prelims are starting anywhere from 510pm ET to 530. I'll keep an eye out on that pick lock. Main card airs live on Fox Sports 1 at 8pm.

This is one of the best free cards in a while, ladies and gents. Make those picks count.

Great strategy by Bodão there in the end. Charge at your opponent with your chin up in the air and hands low.

I can only assume at that point Perpetuo didn't know Akhmedov could punch back

I really don´t feel like Akhemedov is better than Bodao though. If there is such a thing as a ¨lucky punch¨, that was it

Sambo fighters are just dangerous as hell in wild fights. They're constantly scrambling and looking for the finish.

Also, their defense consists of hitting you hard enough that you stop hitting them.

I havent picked against these sambo guys and i will continue that tred. Only bust was azmat gashimov. 

I was yelling *** are you doing. I couldnt figure out why he let go of that first rnc. It was sunk in deep under the chin. It almost cost him the fight, lucky for him hes got heavy hands. But he needs to work on being more technical. That wild **** will catch up to him eventually.

I think the signings of these these guys is cause the ufc is gonna hold an event in russia sometime in 2014. But make no mistake, M-1 has a hold of a lot of the top talent from eastern europe. And bellator has grabbed a lot of good guys. M-1 and bellator seem to be in a battle for the talent. Cause 3 well known M-1 russians tried to jump to bellator and M-1 was gonna sue bellator and the fighters for breaking contract.

Can't stand watching Pepey fight. I think neither him nor Sicilia are really UFC caliber fighters. Loser should leave town IMO.

Yeah this guy has nowhere near the skill level of rustam or khabib. Both are more accomplished sambo fighters and while i wouldnt call them technical, they are more under control in their striking than this guy is.
