Predictions: 11 of 11 Winners, 7 Perfect, 775 Points   |   1st Place

1 Prelim streams online at 430pm ET, followed by FS1 Prelims at 5pm and the main card on big FOX at 8pm.

This was one of the best cards of the year, but after injuries derailed the two most anticipated fights, it's lost some luster. 

Still, it's a fantastic free card. 

Oh, and it kinda sorta decides the winner of Tapology's $500 Autumn 2013 Predictions Competition. 

So there's that.

Hopefully people will stop underrating MM now. He's one of the most technical fighters in the UFC.

Christ...

MM is seriously clearing out the division. Rematches with Pickett, Dodson and Uncle Creepy still very much interest me....maybe a fight with Lineker also but outside of that he's in a world of his own..

I think Lineker's probably next, unless they give Dodson the rematch first.

Linker and Ali are fighting at UFC 169, so that's the number one contender.

I'm curious to see how the hell anyone plans on beating MM now.  I thought if it was gonna be anyone, it was gonna be Benavidez.  Honestly didn't think MM had that kind of power but **** was I wrong.  That just put ******* everyone at 125 on notice and anyone at 135 thinking about making a drop.

Benavidez, Benson and Dos Santos are all in the same boat now.

@CONDIT729 MM is boring and doesn't have finishing power.

That was easy.

Even minus that KO, I still find MM exciting. He's so fast, so technical. I enjoy watching his fights.
