Predictions: 7 of 12 Winners, 3 Perfect, 475 Points   |   Tied for 665th

The OFFICIAL discussion thread has arrived, my children. 

This should be a good one, chalk-full of intriguing and semi freak-show attractions. In short, it's everything a major Japan show should be. 

Prelims are set to kick off at 1230am ET Saturday morning. 

Who's staying up -- or getting up -- with me?

This thread is dedicated to hdmexiqtioner, who's day of birthing was recently celebrated!

Starting to get the feeling Sadollah beats Sexy.

If I'm still feeling awake after Bellator I'll pull an all-nighter for this. I hate staying up all night... but this card is just so good.

@skelli, I've been feeling that all along, in fact the only think that made me stay with sexyama was his fight vs. Shields. But I will not be surprised in the slightest if Sadollah wins and gut feeling even expects him to.

I finally did it ... I made the switch from Sexy to Sadollah. It may come back to bite me, but gut feeling is too strong on this one.
