It may not be the UFC 137 you were expecting, but it's still UFC 137, dammit!

The next installment of the popular Ultimate Fighting Challenge comes to us live tonight from fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada, with a tantalizing main event between Nick Diaz and BJ Penn.

Things are scheduled to kick off first at 6:15pm 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 had Downes by Decision until I watched the weigh-ins.  Nijim looked to have much more energy.

If I don't nail this Danny Downes upset pick I'm in a deep 0-3 hole and it will be quite difficult to get that "most points" award.

I gave Carmont all 3 rounds and the 2nd with the close finish could be considered a 10-8 round by some judges. I  had it 30-27 Carmont.

I really don't mind decisions at all as long as they were good fights like the last one.  It's Starks/Jacoby decisions that piss me off.
