Predictions: 6 of 10 Winners, 1 Perfect, 325 Points   |   Tied for 340th

The UFC's network television debut is finally here!  UFC on FOX is coming to you live on... Fox, obviously, at 9:00pm eastern tonight with a single fight extravaganza surrounding Junior Dos Santos vs Cain Velasquez for the heavyweight championship.

At the moment it appears the Facebook preliminary card will begin at 4:45pm eastern time (final time still unknown) for 9 prelims on Facebook.com/UFC.  Then at 9:00 eastern time you need to flip channels to Fox to see history made.

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

Fox doesn't broadcast only the last inning of the world series, they show more then 1 quarter of a football game. Seriously hyping up UFC/ MMA give me the card not 1 fight that can go five rounds or 1 minute. Case like this I prefer a PPV.

LMAO. Some guy on Twitter told me that Carwin is a non contender and that he doesn't deserve to fight Cain. WOW

Good for junior, great guy to have as the title holder. And I doubt Brock wants anything to do with him....probably why he kept saying he wanted Cain. Doesn't matter anyway, can't wait to watch him break dance across the octagon against Overeem. Like everyone else is saying, JDS/Overeem would be crazy.

Big props to JDS for a hell of a victory. I don't like Overeem or Brock's chances against him honestly.

Also, what is all this stuff about JDS gassing in later rounds that they kept saying?

Brock Lesnar was really wanting a rematch with Cain Velasquez before the fight, but when the commentator asked about Lesnar facing JDS, he was real quick to point out that he has to face Overeem first. Prior to the fight, he was looking past Overeem, after the fight, he seemed to have a whole different attitude about looking past Overeem.

Brock is right about JDS needing to be pressured right from the start. You cant stand in front of him and let him time you.
