I should've known Johnson would get screwed. That moves me to 1-9 picking him. I hate picking his fights.

Wow, apparently my jinx pick worked. Heard others talking about how bad they picked these 2 fighters and I noticed that I too was 2-8 picking Johnson and 1-5 picking Dariush & I wanted Dariush to win so I switched my pick to Johnson. But that was a bad decision.

Picked Dariush DEC. Thought Johnson clearly edged every round other than the third. But still. Booing Dariush isn't right. Where's Iaquinta when you need him.
