Predictions: 7 of 10 Winners, 4 Perfect, 515 Points   |   Tied for 32nd with 10 others

Prelims kick off on FS2 (annoying) at 8pm ET followed by the main card on FS1 at 10pm. 

Don't miss the early fights, as they're some of the better ones on an overall decent card. 

Hope they keep Koscheck off the broadcast, though ... his desk work during the weigh-ins was truly cringeworthy.

Jouban should fight Peter Sobotta or Lance Benoist next

I can understand that it is hard to lose the extra weight. Maybe he will spend more time preparing for a fight then cutting to WW. That said, I'm not confident that he will do amazing. He will struggle when he is matched up against some about T20-25.

I agree with @sreimuth on Jouban vs. Thatch.  I think Thatch has proven ready for a step up while Jouban is still pretty green.  I wouldn't mind seeing Jouban vs. Siyar.

I'd say Jouban vs. Magny/Garcia winner.

Where the hell did that come from? He was a round and a half away from potentially getting cut. Great KO that got the crowd screaming. Boetsch vs winner of Carmont/Leites. Tavares vs Mark Munoz.
