I couldn't find a thread like this, so sorry if I'm doubling up here.

My picks for quarterfinals:

Brookins v Watson - Brookins by TKO strikes Rd 3 Both guys have great BJJ, I'm giving Brookins the edge as the sharper and smarter fighter.

Johnson v Phan - Phan by decision. If Cody could overwhelm Nam in the first, I think Johnson will manhandle him. But Johnson has not shown much ability to finish, so I see Nam weathering the storm and outpointing once Johnson wears himself out.

Sounds right to me tho I don't know what will happen in Johnson vs Phan.   Phan looks really small for LW.  

I think Brookins wins the whole thing.  He's so creative with throws and grappling, I think he is ready for UFC.

I'll take Brookins and Johnson and then Brookins to win the whole thing.
