I can't wait for Cain/JDS.

I think JDS is going to catch Cain again, Junior is so good at controlling range with his footwork and speed. I think Cain may have some moments though early but it won't go past the third round.

Lauzon has always been an awesome first round fighter but he always seems to fade after that, probably due to his go for broke style. I think Miller weathers than storm and submits Lauzon late in the fight.

Tim Boetsch is a winner but I've never been overly impressed with him, especially for someone who is ranked in the top 5 according to a lot of people. I think Okami would beat him 99/100 times, although that was an amazing comeback, and he didn't really do anything of substance to beat Lombard in what was a really bad fight. Costa Phillipou has really good hands and good power, if he can keep the fight standing I see him upsetting Boetsch.

The Alan Belcher and Yushin Okami fight is extremely hard to pick. Okami is a monster in the clinch and in top control where he smashes people, but Belcher has improved a lot. I think I like Okami by decision is a close back and forth fight.

Chris Leben is supposedly drug free and living a healthy lifestyle, which is good to hear. Even if he wasn't I would still pick him by KO over Strikeforce import Derek Brunson.

Other fights I'm really looking forward to are the Brad Pickett vs Eddie Wineland and the Melvin Guillard and Jamie Varner fights. Pickett and Wineland are two aggressive, in you r face bantamweights with power, should be a show. Guillard was pissed off about something with Varner at the weigh ins yesterday, needs to keep his emotions in check because he always makes stupid mistakes when he fights angry. Todd Duffee also returns to the UFC, interested to see what he looks like, had a ton of hype at one point.

Somewhere between 11:30-11:45 would be my guess.

No doubt about this one. Guess Cain/JDS 3 on tap.

You can't knock that guy out. JDS has some serious heart.

Good showing by Cain but, his top game is severely overrated.

What a fight! Looked like Cain overwhelmed and hurt/gassed JDS. Unreal heart by Junior, great performance by Cain who was on a mission.

Cain looked very good. This is what I expected from him in the first fight but didn't get it.

A bit yes. His problem is that he leaves too many openings while on the ground. A gassed JDS, Brock (well he is a better wrestler), Rothwell, and Kongo should not be able to get up so easily.

Junior showed great TDD and scrambling last night, especially for being gassed and hurt. Cain had great top control and damage against Big Foot. I'd love to see a third fight, I think Junior wins the rubber match.

All I'm saying is that he leaves a lot of openings on the ground.

Let there be a bigger gap between fights next time. Overeem and Werdum deserves next crack at it.
