Too bad Mo and Rampage made up, because that would have been the biggest fight in Bellator history theoretically.

Askren's top game improved leaps and bounds! Great performance! Mo was dominant as well.

Yes it did, big time. He mauled Amossou.

UFC on Fox tomorrow night, great main card. I'm most excited for Cerrone, I really hope he beats up Pettis. What are everyone's picks?

MAIN (FOX, 8 p.m. ET)
Demetrious Johnson vs. John Dodson - for flyweight title
Quinton Jackson vs. Glover Teixeira
Donald Cerrone vs. Anthony Pettis
Erik Koch vs. Ricardo Lamas

Was wondering that too, he isn't ripped up really at all.

I'm going with a couple upsets.
Dodson over Mighty Mouse
Rampage over Glover
Cerrone over Pettis
Koch over Lamas

I think Glover tends to stand in the pocket and that is playing right into Rampage's game. he could get caught. Pettis and Cerrone could be a fight of the year type of match up.

I don't think Rampage gives a fuck. He could have the mentality of "I'm going out with a bang" but i think he'll lose.

I feel like all the pressure is on Glover, biggest fight of his life. Rampage has nothing to lose here. It's going to be a banger either way. I could see Lamas beating Koch if he mixes up his takedowns with his strikes, Koch has been out for a looooooooong time which could play a factor.

I'm not expecting an exciting fight. I really only care about the Cowboy/Pettis fight. Flyweights are too small - they're both 5'3! They looked ridiculous getting interviewed, they're basically midgets.

I had to laugh at how Amossou basically called Askren a "lay-n-pray bitch" in the whole pre-fight hype bit...and then got taken down at will and totally mauled until the doctor finally decided he'd gotten destroyed too much to continue.

That was the first Askren fight that I have found enjoyable. He passed to half guard and did serious damage with punches and elbows, Amossou's eye was a wreck. Good for Ben for taking the criticism he gets and working on things.

Rampage looked in great shape, he had better be ready because Glover is a killer and will beat his ass if he's not.

Dodson
Rampage (Tough one to pick for me) I would rather see Glover win so he can advance in the division if Rampage is leaving but Rampage could go Rampage on him.
Pettis
I have no clue who Lamas or Koch are

Both were WEC guys, Koch trains with Anthony Pettis and his only loss came to Chad Mendes. Lamas has come on of late and has beaten Cub Swanson and Hatsu Hioki.

Guida did it again, bounced around, stalled, a was gifted a decision in a fight he didn't win. He doesn't come to fight anymore.
