Predictions: 1 of 11 Winners, 0 Perfect, 50 Points   |   Tied for 1190th

This one kicks off on Fight Pass around 4pm ET, then moves over to FOX Sports 1 at 7pm. 

Not a lot of big names on the undercard, but hopefully we'll get some good fights. Then the hopefully-epic rematch!

Enjoy.

I'm actually not doing too bad. I guess picking my favorite fighters instead of the smart pick is paying off this time

LMAO, just noticed on the right it's Moti Horenstein's birthday (first Israeli fighter in the UFC) and Noad got knocked out with a flying knee. That's brutal.

I have had picks that saved differently than I had intended, but because of picking them on a tablet and my finger tap logs as something different than I had intended.  My fault for using something as imprecise as a touch screen tablet to make picks and not rechecking before I save, not Tapology's fault.

Ok that 1st point deduction was ********. He wasn't trying to kick him, he was trying to scramble up. I had to go back and watch it again because it was so damn fast. That's as accidental as any groin shot I've ever seen and Prazeres didn't appear to even notice it. The 1st fence grab was the only truly blatant one. The following one(s) looked more to me like just sticking his arm out trying to push off the fence which is allowed but after the first one I'm okay with taking a point for that but anyone that says Mario isn't completely overzealous with his point deductions is insane imo.

That said, Taisumov had zero urgency and would've lost anyway.
