"The Irish Hand Grenade" is going to destroy Swick. I'm going to love that. Davis = MUCH better combos, uses angles better, has A LOT more power. If he touches Swick on the jaw, expect a finish that looks reminiscent to his destruction of Liaudin.

I like my boy Nate "The Great" via UD over Thales. Like DrewMone said, this fight will gauge where Leites is on the 185 lb. map right now in his career.

Wiman & Tavares has the possibility to be FOTN. I personally...like Matt in that bout.

Taylor versus Jess "The Joker" has SLUGFEST written all over it. That's going to be tremendous as well. I see Taylor out-striking Liaudin for a round & 1/2, then tagging Jess on the button, getting him outta there.

Of course, Kampmann is FINALLY BACK, and he's got a good test in "El Conquistador." Should be pretty entertaining for 2 rounds I'll say, then Martin will submit Jorge with something flashy.

The Werdum we saw versus 'Zaga. Yeah, if he shows up in the fight with Vera, we could see Brandon suffer his 2nd loss in a row. FabWerdum's striking is improving rapidly, and he's quietly dangerous on the feet. We know how good Vera's striking is...but will he push the pace? He sure didn't again Tim-may. We'll see how it goes.

My opinion on the main event almost EXACTLY mirrors Nick_V03's thoughts on Chuckles vs. Sugar. For details, read his post. Regardless, I see Liddell winning via 2nd round G-n-P stoppage (ala the ending of his 2nd fight with Ortiz).

Okkk
