Well Sass/Grant should be a no-brainer now.

Wow, I'm really bummed out about Johnson. His stand up did look good though. In my honest opinion he will continue to improve and he still has a lot of potential. I think when all is said and done he'll be better than Sass.

Beautiful submission by Sass.  Would love to see him fight T.J. Waldburger.  Johnson was looking good though.  He didn't know how to defend the heel hook.

I'm just going to stop picking decisions from here on out.  The perfect decision isn't worth that many points anyway, and they seem to be becoming more and more rare as time goes on.  Seems the odds are better for a perfect if you pick a finish.  Great performance for Sass.  I'm looking forward to seeing him again, especially with his slick submission skills.  His stand-up actually didn't look horrible, if he cleaned it up a little and didn't go quite as wild.  Make a guy defend your high kicks, spinning back fists, etc. and then look for the take down low.  The great part about having a feared ground game is that you can try any kind of striking technique, because you aren't afraid to hit the mats.

Got Yves Edwards winning the next one.  For some reason every Oliveira is nasty at submissions.  Yves is vicious though, hopefully he can bounce back from the Stout knockout.

@redkayak... strange! it seems there's a small bug with those single-pick images.  there should be a red X not a green check next to your round 2 on sass.

Yves is always fun to watch.  I'm like you guys, I hope he's okay to compete after his devastating knock out at the hands of Stout (literally.)  I don't even remember who I picked in this fight, so I'll have to go back and look at my predictions before it starts.  Either way, I wouldn't be upset if Yves walked away with the victory.

I don't think i'll be picking decisions any longer either. At least with the undercard.
