Light Heavyweight Championship bout: Maurício Rua (c) vs Jon Jones
I’ve got Jon Jones winning this one. Rua might be the more powerful fighter here, but Jones is more dangerous in more places.
Bantamweight bout: Urijah Faber vs Eddie Wineland
Faber.
Lightweight bout: Jim Miller vs Kamal Shalorus
Miller should be able to keep this on the feet and out box Shalorus. This fight should be awesome as Shalorus is world class wrestler which will completely nullify Miller’s takedowns. Miller those is far superior in the boxing department where Shalorus wings bombs over and over. You know what I’m changing my pick. Shalorus via decision.
Middleweight bout: Nate Marquardt vs Dan Miller
Nate Marquardt. Better everywhere.
Heavyweight bout: Mirko Filipovic vs Brendan Schaub
Brendan Schaub. Younger fighters seem to be giving Mirko problems.
Preliminary card (Spike TV Card)
Light Heavyweight bout: Luiz Cane vs Eliot Marshall
Luiz Cane easily. Well he won’t necessarily win easily, but I think its a easy pick.
Lightweight bout: Edson Barboza vs Anthony Njokuani
No pick, but like seeing Njokuani fight.
Preliminary card (Facebook)
Welterweight bout: Ricardo Almeida vs Mike Pyle
Ricardo Almeida doesn’t want to get choked out again. I don’t think Pyle is going to get that shot. I like Almeida here.
Lightweight bout: Kurt Pellegrino vs Gleison Tibau
If Gleison fights at his best he will be too strong and big for Pellegrino who has had problems against bigger fighters.
Preliminary card

Benavidez

Assunção
