Teixeira still ranked at number 3 shows you how weak 205 is.

Damn !!

I picked Teixeira to win but didn't expect that. Experience came through in the end.

Crikunov proving to be a very short lived prospect.

Glover looked really slow on the feet. But once it hit the ground he just steamrolled Cirkunov. Pretty impressive, looked like Cirkunov was about to tap to strikes.

Glover really needed that win after that fight with Gustafsson.  If he gets another win, he could easily be looking at a title shot sometime soon.  As of right now though, I'd say OSP has the best argument for a shot.

Second time I’ve made money betting against Cirkunov. Good fighter, but a little overhyped, partially due to the lack of depth in the division.

Glover usually gets hit a lot early in fights,**** he almost got ko'd by Ryan Bader.He usually adjusts very well,have no clue why he was the underdog and counted out by most.Guys still a monster.

Hardest fight to pick on the card for me and the one i'm looking forward to the most

Ponzi is a very good striker but with a suspect chin.

Perry is a limited fighter but can finish the fight anytime, especially up close.

WAR !!!

Trying not to get my hopes up for this one,but I have seen great fights on paper suck balls like Melvin Guillard vs Jeremy Stephens.I think the only way this fight doesn't live up to expectations is if someone gets ko'd or subbed super early.Ponz is way better but Perry has that great equalizer.

Ponzi is going to get KTFO'd tonight.  I like Ponzi a lot, but Perry is going to close the distance, pressure and get the KO.

Glover is so good on the ground that it actually makes him vs DC an intriguing fight,but on a 1 fight win streak it's kind of silly (but so is the division atm).

Yeah, I feel Ponzi is the better striker, but Perry has the power to put anyone out. I picked Perry but this is our best chance so far to finally see him knocked out...

...which should make everyone happy.

Close round.  Scoring 10-9 Perry.  God damn that was intense. Both guys were landing good stuff and I think Perry may have stunned Ponzi

Ponzinibbio on his bike a little too much. Looks afraid of Perry's power.
