Yushin Okami vs. Chael Sonnen (When I first checked Junkie, they had Okami vs. Rivera, haha, screenshot coming)
TV fights (9-10 PM ET on Spike):

Ryan Bader vs. Eric/Red Schafer
PPV:
Anthony Johnson vs. Yoshiyuki Yoshida-Catch Weight at 176

Cain Velasquez vs. Ben Rothwell
Main Event: UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Ryoto (Lyoto) Machida vs. Mauricio Rua for the title

Most of the usual sites will have the post-fight press conference starting sometime between 1-1:30 AM ET, I can confirm Junkie will have it. After all that's over, don't forget to switch over to HDNet for DREAM 12 LIVE at 2 AM ET.

Edit:

That's good money for Rivera.

Wow i can't wait for this event!

Cannot believe Okami/Sonnen is not even one of the TV fights at least though...

Uh, don't you mean Okami-Rivera? Probably because it's likely the usual Okami fight-snoozefest. Boring, and Dana doesn't want to show boring fights.

No, he was right, Okami vs Sonnen is the fight. Rivera is fighting Kimmons

edit: Wait, were you being sarchastic about it being Okami vs Rivera?

I'm such a little bitch and changed my pick to Machida last minute

WAR SHOGUN! ... and parlay!

It should pay off though but I want Shogun to win so bad. He'd be a better, more dynamic champ then Machida. But cheers to a great night of MMA everybody

Cant wait to watch this and DREAM 12 tonight! All nighter boys

I think Jorge Rivera will win in a similar fashion to how he defeated David Loiseau at UFC 44.

i think im going to change my pick to yoshida


EDIT: nah nevermind...my heart is telling me to though..we'll see

I doubt the weight cut has affected Rumble's chances of winning too much.

Going by THIS interview it seems he just tried a different method of weight cutting that he wasn't used to.

It's tough to ignore two consensus top 10 ranked fighters in the same fight though.

this is probably my biggest gamble heavy card parlay with Gormley, Rothwell (also have money on Rothwell mind you) and Al-Hassan.

I wil either gain a lot of money or lose a lot of money in this one *crosses fingers*

I have money on Gormley and Rothwell also, but i'm struggling to see how a bet on Al-Hassan will pay off.

I think it was because he was +120 ot something when I made the bet and he just kinda stayed clicked even though I was leaning towards switching it to Schafer. Oh Well, need to double check more now

I have a parlay of Stevenson, Struve, and Tibau.

Those of you with Gormley just lost. Struve wins by sub in 4:04.

I'm 1-0 with 11 points. I also got the first part of my parlay.

1-0, 11 points, off to a great start!

1-0 7 points

Great start for me again.....

Kingsbury wins a split decision with two 29-28 scores to Al-Hussan's one.

isn't that a split decision?

close fight

Jorge Rivera vs. Rob Kimmons up next. I got Rivera in a close fight.

I'm 2-0 with 18 points.

No way is Sonnen a consensus top 10 MW. Okami yes, but I'd say more people rank Sonnen below top ten than not.

0-2. Hopefully me being wishy-washy and picking Kimmons literally 1 minute before the picks closed works

I'm 3-0 with 28 points.

and 0-3 for me :(

im 2-1 but im glad rivera won even though it hurts my record, I basically saw this fight as end of the line for rivera but he proved me wrong won all rounds and finished the fight

Having an awful event so far
