i think it's fair to say this is a pretty week card, but still looking forward to the main event, im going with franklin but i wouldnt put too much money on it. wand is still dangerous but i don't see him out-striking franklin for the entire fight, his best chance of winning is by KO.
franklin has a reach advantage, and a size advantage and i think that will be they key factor in the fight even though franklin hasnt fought in over a year i think he will be more than ready to fight. would be pretty awesome to see wand win in brazil though and i would never count him out of this fight, he has Ko Power and one of the nastiest clinch games in the history of MMA.
werdum and russow looks like a mismatch on paper, and i think werdum should win easily, his stand up looked great against nelson where he delivered some brutal knees in the clinch that would of sent most other people to the canvas unconscious, i just hope he's been working really hard on his takedown defence and general wrestling. if he can keep the fight standing he should be able to stop russow who gassed horribly in his last fight.
russow has good takedowns but i can see the ref standing the fight up as he wont be able to get any ground and pound of on werdum who's jiu jitsu is world class, and russow wont be able to advance past full guard. might take a look at the odds on a fabricio sub tomorow.
on a side not it will be interesting to see what kind of condition russow looks to be in at the weigh ins
out of the tuf brasil card i've only seen the first couple of episodes so i dont have a clue about most of the other fighters on the card

Just because it is in brazil, and the chance that frankin might have ring rust, I am laying franking tko/ko. Not overly confident though.
i dont see it going the distance, won't it be 5 rounds?!!! tko/ko is the only way i can see franklin winning
I think the axe murdering bastard will prevail. Just got this feeling.
i think they start at midnight ish on facebook, im only watching the main event tonight though, i dont know a single person on the prelims
pearson messed up a couple of my accumulators last night 
got werdum in a few others though
got werdum in a few others though
Good first fight of the prelim! Victory to...the underdog...apparently.
they might repeat it on the main card if they have time to spare, otherwise i'll watch em tomorow
franklins odds are drifting somewhat, but i think its just bookmakres money coming in

got Werdum mainly in some accumalator's and a bit on franklin :) dont know anything about any of the other fights lol
same, poor card. Whats ur nap of the night? I fancy a gamble
he doesnt have to cut to 185 that's probably, they fight at a catchweight of 195. he looks in good shape though
yea, just seems to look naturally big. Hes always been a dogged, determined fighter but not a fav of mine. Would like to see him win toinight tho. Wonder what the odds would be if it wasnt in Brazil?
missed most the fight m8, got caught up in the boxing
think were the only2 stupid enough to stay up...dedicated!
poker for me, I play for a living but ufc a nice distraction
the crowd look awesome tonight! this kid looks pretty emotional, hope it doesn't affect him to much
PEPE lost the round by basically giving him it by gifting his back!
goddard is just looking for something that aint there
1.01??!!! market has gone mad, i'd never take odds like that on a fight like this, look at the paquiao fight and this was closer than that
1st round coul have gone either way 2nd round to serg and the 3rd could go either yet 1.2s at the bell ferr?
the straight right cemented it?? he'd already lost the fight by then joes! he'd lost it straight after the 2nd when ferr was as good as dead!
i guess the portions of the rounds where sergio did damage were quite short but still..
getting a bit nervous about my franklin bet, might lay some of it of
could have swore he said 46 before..he's 35..dont know what they were going on a about before??
yes he does
he had to have plastic surgery coz of scar tissue i think

how can some fighters not be ripped? Surely their training is mega intense.
agreed franklin looks like he's sharper or silva got worse than last time
tbh they've both probably declined a bit since last time. difference is wand has lost by KO multiple times recently
jesus christ wtf are you doing getting mixed up in that
could have won the fight easily without having a ego trip toe to toe
if this goes to points it prob wont matter what else happens after this as that last round will have won the fight being in brazil
ye, those body kicks from rich could be a big factor later on
price is too big on franklin, nearly 1.4 at the end of that round

glad im not one of them lol, although i did get a lay bet of 100 quid taken on franklin at 1.17 
when wand knocked him down
need franklin to take him down again
when wand knocked him downneed franklin to take him down again
he kicked them like he was a goalaie kicking a ball from his hands
i was going to say i bet he can't remember anything past the 2nd
