Nah, unfortunately at the time I should have joined the military I was too busy being a complete idiot.

They woulda’ kicked me out anyway.

Gonna go with Mighty Mouse too, because no one can beat Mighty Mouse.

Looking at his picture, I could swear he has hydrocephalus.

Lovely trip take down by Little Pettis!

I’m not sure that I have seen him fight before tonight.

No finishes in the pre-lims, all decisions. Hate it when that happens, but they were all entertaining fights to watch.

But I can’t watch the main card, too poor, stupid Obama. So I am going ot watch it on this thread, and the ufc live results page, and by way of the post game show.

I picked Jones, but I’m rooting for OSP, because I don’t really like Jones.

Go OSP but I think JBJ takes it easily.

I think I might enter the contest, to spend a day with Cowboy it would be awesome if I won.

If OSP makes it past the first round I’ll be stunned.

I can see OSP making into the second round due to possible ring rust from JBJ. I don’t think it’s likely though. Unfortunately, JBJ will be coming out to send a message to Cormier.

I agree Jones is definitely going to send a message that’s for sure.

Mighty Mouse with the KO!

I’d probably still say Jones is the #1 Pound for Pound fighter, but it’s close.
