Main card
Light Heavyweight bout:  Rashad Evans vs.  Phil Davis
Middleweight bout:  Michael Bisping vs.  Chael Sonnen
Middleweight bout:  Demian Maia vs.  Chris Weidman

Preliminary card (Fuel TV)
Lightweight bout:  Evan Dunham vs.  Nik Lentz
Heavyweight bout:  Mike Russow vs.  John-Olav Einemo
Bantamweight bout:  Johnny Bedford vs.  Mitch Gagnon
Featherweight bout:  Cub Swanson vs.  George Roop
Featherweight bout:  Charles Oliveira vs.  Eric Wisely
Lightweight bout:  Michael Johnson vs.  Shane Roller
Heavyweight bout:  Joey Beltran vs.  Lavar Johnson
Middleweight bout:  Chris Camozzi vs.  Dustin Jacoby

who ya got? im going for a big bet on evans, phil davis has overated wrestling who struggled to take down little nog a while ago, his stand up is not in the same league as rashad's either in my opinion. haven't really looked at the other fights yet, although einemo could be a decent underdog to bet on, his stand up looked good against herman and undoubtedly has a jiu jitsu advantage over russow.
i'm thinking sonnen will win his fight but 1.25 is to short for me to back, bisping has a very underrated guard and his take down defence is good too(see his fight against rashad evans) however i feel that sonnen has underrated kickboxing, and this could be an interesting affair standing up. it will be interesting to see if bisping's cardio plays a factor here as he has said that he is finding it harder and harder to make weight at 185, and sonnen more than likely will be pressing for takedowns throughout this fight, which could wear bisping out.

I can't see how weidman 4/6 can be favorite over maia 6/5, i think if the fight stay's standing maia will outpoint him. Maia's standup improves with every fight an can see him having the edge there. Weidman has amazing wrestling, but maia has amazing jujitsu. Weidman also took this fight on 2 weeks notice, an even if he takes maia down, you have to constantly stay active on the ground just like munoz, did against maia otherwise you will get submitted. Im not sure if weidman will be able to keep the pace for the duration, thats why i can see maia on points or maia by a late submission.
For me sonnen is an absolute banker against bisping, i just can't see how bisping can win, as much as id love him to. 1/4 isnt to attractive tho but i will include in a multi.
oliveira also should go well, now he has dropped weight class, he was good at lightweight against opponents a lot bigger, so now at featherweight he should be a beast. 1/5 is not to appealing tho.
Evans should win, i doubt davis will be able to take rashard down an keep him there. Evans should be to fast and have to much experience for davis. It does worry me tho how evans has been number 1 contender for so long, and had multiple title shots scrapped through injury. Its almost like it's destiny for him not to fight jones for the title. Hopefully not tho and rashard will get through davis an get his title shot which he deserves.

Did anyone notice Bisping's tone sounds slightly less reassured within the last couple of interviews, especially with Ariel?

Just a quick note to point out the three fight main card begins at 1am UK time.  Betfair had it up as a five fight main card starting at 3am.

im just going with a large bet on rashad, and some very small bets on maia, einemo and sonnen, surprised that rashads price hasn't shortened really at all, einemo's has shortend from 3 to 2.5 which i managed to arb quite a lot which was a nice catch

alwayswinning2000 only read your few first lines but spot on lad...ridiculous that weidman is fav in this is utter madness...the dogs bite tonight fells big time! back every outsider on the main card and you wont go far wrong!..this is the post i put on facebook, see what you guys think...

maia price is huge! weidman looks like his strength is maia strength... the floor ! sonnen didnt last a round with them tactics so take that away from weid and what has he left?..maia stand up has improved as well so fancy him there at 2.3 !..going with davis against evans purely on value..nearly 2/1! and sonnen bisping..bisping one of the best take down defences in the game against sonnen awesome grappling..if bisping can stop the take down he wins as he will always out work him and if it goes to points bisping wins imo..the big if is can bisping twarts the take down if he can he wins...5/1 bisping? gotta give that a shout!..DOGS TO BITE!?

Confused
