The UFC is back with a little-publicized UFC Fight Night card. But sometimes it's these smaller ones that can pack the best punch.  The televised action is live on Spike TV in the U.S. at 9:00 eastern time.  

But wait, that's not all... you also get all the preliminary card fights streaming at Facebook.com/UFC beginning at 5:30pm eastern time. Come on down to Tapology and discuss the fights.

Your prediction results and leaderboard ranking will automatically show up in any posts made here. If you want to embed your full listing of picks you can do that also.   The top of the leaderboard will be available in the right column on this thread.

Enjoy the fights and good luck in your predictions!

Dunham is putting it on Bailey, easily took the first round.  Displaying very crisp striking.

Dunham hit him a ton, and lumped him up a bit, but he can't seem to really hurt Bailey.

I think Bailey needs to move up a weight class.  Dunham did excellent with those devastating combos.  Bailey still hanging in there though.
