One of the better UFC Fight Night offerings in recent months, this Albuquerque card kicks off on UFC Fight Pass at 730pm ET with one Pat Cummins-centric prelim, followed by 10 more quality fights on FOX Sports 1 beginning at 8pm. 

Do you smell any upsets on this one?

Oh, and this is the final event in the $500 Spring 2014 UFC Predictions Competition. A champion shall be crowned, and monies shall be awarded.

Before we call it a night, I just found something interesting out.

Since he was losing the fight badly, Diego Sanchez closed at +5000 at live betting (Ross Pearson -8000). That probably makes Sanchez vs Pearson the greatest comeback of all time, and a testament to just how badly the judges can **** things up.

I hate picking UFC cards.  I'm just terrible.  Always.

"I definitely thought I won the first and third round," Sanchez stated. "I thought it was unanimous, but I haven't got to see the fight yet. I can't really assess it, but definitely thought I won the fight. I thought 30-27 was ridiculous, but, you know, I got my hand raised.

"I'm happy," he continued. "I felt like I landed the big power shots. I felt like I had him wobbled. I felt like I had him hurt a couple of times. It was a good fight. I was happy with it."

"He was a fun fight. I'd fight him any day of the week," Sanchez said of Pearson. "Ain't no haters going to rob me of my joy right now, my victory. This was a great night for me. I thought I won the fight, 100 percent. So did the judges. Yeah, it's my hometown, but the judges came and did their job. Some reporters can say this, say that. I'm the original guy. I've dealt with this all my career.

"I've had people say, 'Oh, he lost this fight. He didn't win this fight.' You know what? I won the fight tonight. My hand was raised. I'm happy."

I thought Dos Anjos deserved the 2nd POTN over Hallman.
