Predictions: 9 of 11 Winners, 4 Perfect, 550 Points   |   Tied for 73rd

Do you like UFC title fights? I said DO YOU LIKE UFC TITLE FIGHTS?!? Well if so, you've actually come to the wrong place. To catch tonight's two big title fights you'll need to go elsewhere. However, as you watch them, be sure to come on down to Tapology to discuss all the action as it unfolds.

Things are scheduled to kick off first at AROUND 6:00pm eastern time (final time still unknown) for 4 prelims on Facebook.com/UFC.  Then at 8:00 eastern time you can catch a pair of excellent fights on Spike TV. Finally at 9:00pm eastern time, plunk down your hard earned dollars to watch the Pay Per View 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.   Your picks, as well as a link to embed the image, and the top of the site-wide leaderboard will all 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 Pay Per View broadcast.

REMINDER 2: as a courtesy to those not watching Bellator until later, please do not post spoilers in this thread.

I wanted to pick Maia by decision, but I already had 7 decision picks, lol.  I figured Maia had the best chance at a finish.

I've been hit and miss so far with the UFC 136 card. 3-and-3 ... I'm doing a bit better with the Bellator 53 picks.
