Damn, I picked 7/16 underdogs.  

Picking all the hometown fighters will likely turn out to be a poor decision and I apologize to my team in advance.

One change to the ammy card at weigh-ins. Actually the first fight of the night. Non-pickable.

Ouradnik takes the decision.  He went from 8% to 13%.  

I'm glad I could help.

Surprised how heavy the Checco picks are.  I thought it was a "pick em" fight.  Collier has fought much better competition and only lost to a solid prospect in Tiller.
