Predictions: 9 of 11 Winners, 5 Perfect, 615 Points   |   Tied for 151st

Greg and Skelliher are off this week (fixing global warming and bringing peace to the Middle East, respectively).  

I agreed to monitor the festivities of UFC Fight Night 44.  

Featuring a likely title-eliminator fight in the main event, and some great talent on the undercard, enjoy this fine free event from your UFC overlords.

I think Bruce made a mistake, even the text on the screen said submission.

Sad that a heavyweight cant beat a natural LHW. Lucky kick against rama, couldnt finish titties from TUF in 5 rounds. Only reason he got signed probably was cause hes a jacksons guy. Dunno why the hell i picked him when i knew he wasnt ufc material. Guess i thought a real HW would hit harder and being a wrestler wouldnt get rag dolled by a lhw.

Why are they signing guys like him when theres Smoldarev, Tybura, Malikov, Cutelaba, Didier, Rodrigues, Colombo and at least 20 others that are better than hamilton.
