Main card
Lightweight bout: Diego "Nightmare" Sanchez vs. Joe "Daddy" Stevenson Diego makes the proper move to 155 against the Daddy who is desperately seeking a win after getting waxed by Kenny Florian. Both men are superb wrestlers but as most guys will tell you, no matter where it goes on the floor, Sanchez is a top. Super aggressive with stamina Joe can't handle, expect the Nightmare to be in a mad scramble at all times, and use his reach to land some set up shots in route to taking out the very tough Stevenson for a successful Lightweight debut.

WINNER-Diego Sanchez by TKO Rd.3
Welterweight bout: Dan Hardy vs. Rory "Here To Bleed" Markham The mohawk Brit faces the ultra tough Miletich fighter and exciting IFL alumnus. Rory is always quick to bleed but tough as the come facing reach of the better banger in Hardy. "Fight Of The Night" pick as these 2 are going to throwdown, but.....

Middleweight bout: Nate Marquardt vs. Wilson Gouveia The winner has to be the #1 contender, after the Anderson Silva/Thales Leitas title fight, so this battle has big ramifications. Gouveia has that damn KO power to save his ass after he is losing a fight ala Jason Lambert, but "The Great" has such a better MMA education and arsenal leading to a punishing win over the cardio challenged Gouveia and getting the rematch he deserves!

Middleweight bout: Demian Maia vs. Chael "For My Lord" Sonnen Chael deserves to be back, but is going to be subbed by Maia, no doubt. The problem, is Sonnen likes to make a boring fight Team Quest style (boring to arena fans not myself) and is good enough to frustrate Maia, but at the end of the day the Jiu-Jitsu genius taps everyone.

Welterweight bout: Josh Koscheck vs. Paulo Thiago OMG "Kos" is gonna rape this bitch. "Blanket" no more, I'm on board with JK and Paul is here to build up Koscheck's resume.

Prelims
Lightweight bout: Brian Cobb vs. Terry Etim Terry has all the reach in the world (as he usually does) but "Bandit" has put in his time on the floor with 10 winning submissions. 9 fight winning streak for Cobb while Terry is 2-2 in the UFC and on the verge of getting bounced. I like Brian to eventually outwork Etim who sets an early blistering pace, but fades against the consistent Cobb.

Heavyweight bout: Junior dos Santos vs. Stefan Struve 2 Heavyweight fights on 1 card, a rarity indeed. "Skyscraper" reminds me of a Shemmy Shilt, only 3 inches shorter at a mere 6'8" while Jr. is the Fabricio Werdum killer with major league striking, and training from Team Nogueira. The Holland fighter is actually adept at submissions with his size, but I think Jr. stays off the floor punching out the white Manute Bol for the win.

Heavyweight bout: Mike Ciesnolevicz vs. Neil Grove Mike Cisenshellovicussoos is a Miletich Light Heavyweight against "Goliath," which is a fitting nickname for a guy who has to cut weight to make the 265 lb. Heavyweight Division, where this bout occurs. Mike has that standard solid wrestling base while Neil punch yo face till fall down time. Grove is also 38 but doesn't have a lot of wear and tear for his age and lacks a neck which deters the guillotine Grove is semi-famous for. Mike's a better fighter in the wrong weight class but he is a true MMA fighter while the big heavy will gas out and tapout.

WINNER-MC by said guillotine
Lightweight bout: Per Eklund vs. Evan Dunham 7-0 Evan is a good submission fighter and Per isn't really good at anything, though he knows a little about everything. Also, its hard to pick anyone who lost to Sam Stout.

WINNER-Evan Dunham and peanut by decision
Welterweight bout: Troy Mandaloniz vs. Paul Kelly The tough Brit is going to take a "bobby" baton to the "Rude Boy" as if he were soccer hooligan.
