    Very weird to see a fighter like Brandao come in over weight. Gotta wonder whats up there. Definitely picking Poirier now.
    It's one thing to miss weight, it's another to do it by 7 pounds. What happened. I don't even
    maybe an injury interfering with his cutting regime? that's been the reason that's been given by other fighters anyway.

    Tate got utterly destroyed (as have all of them) last time they fought, so I don't see it going much differently.

    Maybe Tate manages to survive into the second, but she will get subbed fo sho

    I really think it's a matter of time before someone takes Rouseys back off of that scarf hold she uses and gets the choke. There's a reason we don't see that much in MMA. That said I hope she triple armbars Tate. One arm, then the other, then back to the first arm again to break it some more.

    Also Dana is announcing something in a few here. Could be Lesnar who knows.

    if only josh Rosenthal was reffing
    he'd let her go into the next round with a broken arm
    there is precedent!

    Anyway, my picks:

    Peralta/Payan - Peralta has got some punches, bro. He's gonna punch Payan into a living death and then unconsciousness in the second.
    Macario/Voelker - Voelker is getting a sympathy fight from the UFC. Macario is rubbish. Macario loses by TKO in the first.
    Howard/Bahadurzada - Much like his last fight, Doomsday is coming in as the underdog. I like Siyar, but Doomsday is a personal favorite. Close decision. Unabashed fan pick.
    Siver/Gamburyan - Manvel is shot. Dude is constantly injured and almost gets finished in every one of his fights. Siver by liver destruction in the third.
    Tibau/Johnson - Johnson is notoriously inconsistent. Tibau isn't and also has a cartoonishly oversized torso. Tibau by decision.
    Leben/Hall - Leben looked wobbly walking out to the weigh-ins. Hall by headshot in the 2nd.
    Porier/Brandao - Brandao missed weight and did it badly. What happened? My guess is Diego gasses and Porier finishes him in the third.
    Miller/Camoes - Who the fuck is Fabricio Camoes? Miller by 2nd round sub.
    Barnett/Browne - The Warmaster will continue murdering opponents on his way to the throne. Barnett by arm triangle choke in the 2nd round.
    Rousey/Tate - Meisha Tate is an upper top 10 bantamweight. She is fodder for Rousey's fame. Rousey by broken arm in last minute of round one.
    Weidman/Silva - I am too lazy to look up my prediction of their first meeting, so I will paraphrase:
    TehSpectre wrote:
    Silva will underestimate Weidman's power and wrestling and it will be his first loss in the UFC.

    In their rematch, Silva will finish Weidman.
    I got the first part correct already, let's see if I actually am psychic. :P

    There's a non zero chance Josh Barnett is going to walk out to World Eater '94. That would make my goddamn year.

    Fuck off and die.

    I don't see her getting past the 1st round.

    However, I have a weird feeling that Ronda is going to KO her. I really can't explain it.

    The press conference has been about the new UFC Fight Pass. There were 3 chairs and only he and Lorenzo were sitting on stage, so I feel Dana was trolling about the Brock rumors.

    $9.99 a month starting in March. The service is free until then. It is replacing UFC.TV

    The entire UFC fight catalog will be available.

    All of the other promotions Zuffa bought will be available.

    Yes, even Elite XC.

    Payan getting worked. Shocking.

    Edit: I may have underestimated how shitty Peralta is on the ground.

    I'm annoyed. I had Payan by decision at first, but changed it due to overwhelming mma blog writer's faith in Peralta. Arg.

    That wasn't a good stoppage. Payan was fighting back and trying to defend the entire time.

    Edit: I take it back. Payan goes out for a second and an uncontested punch wakes him up.

    http://www.ufc.tv/page/fightpass

    I think that's just a placeholder until they get the real site up and running.

    Also, I missed it, but free early prelims will no longer exist. So no Youtube/Facebook prelims unless you are subscribed to Fightpass. For any card.

    legally.
    Just the Facebook/Youtube prelims. Usually one or two fights before the main prelims on FS1 or something.

    Also, $10 is something I can afford for the UFC Fightpass thing.

    Macario didn't look good on TUF Brazil and didn't look good in his last fight.

    What is happening.

    Edit: Voelker is a fuckin' gamer. His nose and face is a bloody mess. Holy fuck. He is still trying to finish the fight. Woooo - hang in there, buddy

    Was kinda hoping Patalino would get KTFO after he started throwing those oblique kicks.
