Maybe you haven't heard, but the UFC Bantamweight title is up for grabs tonight when champion Dominick Cruz defends his belt against Demetrious Johnson in the main event of UFC on Versus 6.  Put down the bacon and tune in.

Things are scheduled to kick off first at 6:00pm (possibly delaying to 6:40pm) eastern time for 6 prelims on Facebook.com/UFC.  Then at 9:00pm eastern time, make your way over to Versus for the televised main card.

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! 
REMINDER: No requesting of or posting links to illegal streams of the Versus broadcast.

Jesus Mario, he ate like 15-20 unanswered shots.  Great technical striking by Edwards. Wasn't unimpressed by Oliveira, he looked solid, he just needs more crisp stand-up.

Yves looked great, especially after the Stout fight.  Got Wiman winning the first fight on the main card via second round Submission.  A non-controversial submission finish that is.

Then the sport would be frowned upon because of severe brain damage.  It's a lose-lose situation.

@crum

i disagree. a few seconds with punches is a few seconds with punches.its not a few seconds with a crocodile.

All finishes tonight, nice going pre-lim fighters. So far I give Neer/Wisniewski for FOTN, Sass SOTN, and Yves KOTN.

"a few seconds with a crocodile" would make for a good reality show.

 I'd rather see the fight go 2 seconds longer than have the dispute of an early stop, as long as the fighter isn't obviously sleeping.

@ greg 
bull rider would make good wrestlers; it takes a very strong base and back.

@ itfigures

Yves looked good. I'm very happy he won. He will never be top notch again but he looked good enough to belong in the UFC. But for now, WAR THUGJITSU

I'm still really pissed about Johnson losing. (For those of you who don't know he was born where I live, went to highschool where my brother went, and started his career in Springfield MO where I have some family, so I go there often, and I've actually met him a few times. Obviously I don't "know" him per se, but still, hate to see him lose a fight that he should have won)

Just a friendly reminder not to post spoilers here, since some people might be waiting to watch Bellator later.
