Alvarez vs Melendez is MMAs version of Pac vs Money lol. A few years ago I would have flipped, now it is more for history sake that I see it. Still a good fight either way.

I will take Werdum winning via Cain can't possibly train AND stay healthy. So either he trains and the fight doesn't happen or he doesn't train and makes it to fight night.

Torres is going to kick some serious ass. Can't wait for that fight. One of the best divisions in MMA for me.


Also Cathal "Opposite of Fabio Maldonado" Pendred will win.

Pretty crazy that JDS and Velasquez in the last two years essentially have had a resounding one fight total between both of them. How lame-sauce.

If Cain comes in at 240lbs, I'll know he's fully healthy and had a solid camp. However If comes in again at 249lbs, like he did against JDS the first time, I'll know he was still injured during his camp and probably doesn't stand much of a chance against Werdum.
