    Main event Evans vs Lyoto
    I think Evans has the best resume of the two (Lidell, Forrest,Tito,) even though he caught them on the way out , Experience is gonna show on the fight not to mention Evans started at heavyweight so I cant see how Lyoto is gonna hurt him. On the other hand Lyoto does have a very difficult style to look good against hes so "elusive" in other words this guy very defensive and rarely leads but he is coming a very impressive ko of Vera i think his name was which he was supposed to be a striker. I think on paper Evans has all the right advantages but you never know .............my pick is Evans by dec. i'd be very impressed if Evans stopped Lyoto.

    Serra vs Hughes
    These two guys are really not in their prime theyre vets but whats interesting about this fight is that they seem to genuinely dislike each other. Hughes is no where near the dominant force he once was but he is a "wrastler" which hell have to use to neutralize Serras heavy hands. Hughes is motivated but well see how much he has left in him if anything, Serra In my opinion has a better chance of beating Hughes now instead of 2 or 3 years ago when this fight should of taken place, If he ko's Hughes I would not be surprised................I slightly favor Serra in this one.

    Edgar vs Sherk
    Sherk has better stand up better oh what the hell am i saying theres no way Edgar wins this ........Sherk takes this by a dominating performance

    Miller vs Sonen
    I may be wrong but i havent seen miller fight in the octagon but should be a good fight .......its a toss up fight for me
    Enjoy

    Well i'm glad i didnt bet on these fights, I just want to know what was Evans strategy for this fight all i seen him do was throw some weak jabs and circle and did not counter when Lyoto was advancing. I think I saw Evans counter Lyoto once with some rights but it was evident he needed to do more to win the fight. I dont recall him throwing one single kick or attempt a takedown. Lyoto on the hand looked very good (no homo) keeping his distance mixing up his offense with kicks and punches in combinations and that barrage of punches he finished off Evans with was awesome, the way Evans crumbled to the floor was scary. Well deserved win for Lyoto.
    Hughes came in lookin buff, i thought this fight failed to deliver though unlike Mcfedries, Swick vs Mcfedries would be an entertaining fight. Sherk was throwing just could not land that reach made a diffrence, good win for Frankie. I wanna see Griffin vs Lyoto
