I'll go out on a limb and say Okami wins by decision.  Training with Chael has helped him a lot and he'll be very well prepared.
I'm hoping its Barboza that finishes via spinning heel kick like he almost did to Njokuani

  
 
Very possible for andy to pull off a flash KO on Okami but Im rooting for Okami via Andy getting wrestle****'d and GNP into UD.
 
Anyone watch the weigh ins? Anyone else reminded of last weeks Curb episode? Anderson went full 90 degrees, but Yushin hit him with the "poopbow"... maaaaybe 15 degrees.
 
I really hope Big Nog can come out there and get a win tomorrow, but IMO he is gonna get ko'd. I hope im wrong though.
 
rooting for okami as well, got alil bit wagered on the underdog, mma lines are pretty off this time, i probably wouldnt have dropped any money if it was +325 but at +425, justifies a small bet

LOVE Seeing Paul Harris in action. People think he's just a leg-lock guy, but his overall BJJ game is pure pwnage. Watch him transition from Salaverry's back to the armbar

I am a big fan of the Miller bros, but I think Palhares takes this.

FOTN: Barboza vs. Pearson
 
Anderson's Nike x Corinthians x Burger King gear was pretty cool.

It's pretty exciting to see something bigger than the Gun Store and Condom Depot on a fighter.

Im going for Okami here. been a fan of his since his fight with Tanner. gonna be a hard battle tho. but im confident he can get him to the ground and work some gnp elbows.
