I'm pretty excited for this one! If nothing else we get to slam the door on this season!

Slightly bad news: Start time has been DELAYED. New start time is 7:30 PM ET.

I think Belcher vs Gouveia is a toss-up.

as do i, one of the hardest fights to pick tonight, i got belcher though

Wonder why the hold up? Hopefully no fights get delayed, some nice prelims tonight.

I also think Burns vs Grant is a pretty big toss up imo.

We're about to get started, fighters on their way to the cage.

I have Burns by UD.

I like this card, I think we'll see some good fights.

Interesting side note from the start of Burns-Grant: The referee is Greg Franklin, Rich Franklin's brother.

Intersting he should know what to do then.

Indeed he does. From Junkie: The fighters return to their feet, and Grant connects on an illegal knee to the junk, and Franklin calls a timeout. A replay shows a direct dent to the ding-dong.
DING-DONG!

And it's over. Grant gets the TKO with 3 seconds left in round 1.

That author always abuses alliterations.

1-0 with 5 points Always bank on the Canadian.

1-0 5 points

Interesting stat here: This is only the 2nd career TKO win for Grant, his first (and last one) was over 3 years ago.

0-1 then so far....Parlay gone already!!

I'm 0-1 and my parlay is dead.

1-0 5 points

Son of a Bitch!

Haha 0-1 already....I have been doing so bad lately, and I may be headed that way again.....

looks like everyone had burns winning

Not everyone. I correctly picked Grant in R1...albeit by submission of course. he's not supposed to get TKOs!

And it's safe to say The Fire Burns no longer. That's 4 straight L's for Burns, so he's probably got Das Boot coming.

Since I'm in a slightly picky mood, only 54% picked Burns.

Same. Luckily Grant came through for us, but I really thought DeMarques was going to get KO'd here (which he nearly did if I'm reading the pbp correctly). He's so inconsistent.

On a side note, good action so far.
