Pace/Torres could be fight of the night.  Or it could... not be.  Kind of depends how Torres approaches this fight, I think.

Torres should prevail unless Pace has serious power in his hands.

I have a feeling Torres is going to look like his old self again and put on a show.

Feeling out process for a minute or two and then Torres goes on the warpath. At least I hope so.

I can't believe Baczynski beat Matt Brown. You know everytime I pick against Matt Brown, he wins, and I everytime I pick him he loses. I can't stand fighters like that, because they ruin my numbers.
