I hope this fight is as epic as it is expected to be. I feel pretty damn confident in my picks for this event, but who knows, I've been confident before and ended up 5 for 10.

5 for 10? That's nothing! Last night I went 3 for 7, and 3 for 9. I can't do much worse than that.

T-Wood and Smith have me nervous, and I've never had any faith in JZ, so I'm very curious how those 3 fights will turn out.

Any other losses I suffer tonight will be pure flukes.

Can't wait for this event tonight.  I have a lot of picks that could go either way in my mind.  I'm hoping to see Tim Kennedy put on a clinic, and grab some attention from Dana White, and hopefully set up a move to the UFC in the near future.  He doesn't have a lot of fights left, as he has indicated his interest in going back into active duty military to serve with his brothers in arms.

Also, Fedor vs. Henderson could go either way, depending on which Fedor shows up.  This is a great match-up, with fireworks potential, but I could also see it being a snooze fest if Henderson activates his wrestling.

I think Daley vs. Woodley will end up being the fight of the night, possibly beaten out by Lawler vs. Kennedy if that fight doesn't hit the mats right away. 

Really looking forward to these match-ups, and the others should be exciting as well.

I had to turn off my computer for 15 minutes to resist my urge to make last-minute changes to my picks before it locked.
