Wearing an airbrushed Evan Tanner: The Power of One memorial T-shirt, featuring Evan playing with a neon blue wolf, Dana White approached the podium crying behind his aviator glasses and holding a tall boy in each hand. Apparently Tanner's ghost came and told him that it was his last wish to have this event named after a Cringer song. Thus the line continues.
To the fights:
Miller vs. Kimmons: Two grapplers with great records that I know nothing about. Kimmons has a win by knee bar. Miller has a bigger record. I have no clue, so I will go with Miller by sub in the 2nd.
McFedries vs. Massenzio: McFedries explodes like the drummer for Spinal Tap. He KOs Massenzio in the 1st.
Britz vs. Morris: Both have solid records in the lower orgs. I know nothing. Britz by KO in the 3rd.
Bradley vs. Lauzon: Joe Lauzon is one of my favortie fighters. He is a solid grappler and can hang in there in the stand-up. Joe hangs around and subs Bradley in the 2nd. Then he fixes your internet.
Gouveia vs. Jensen: Gouveia is a big striker. I enjoy watching him wail on people. He will wail on Jensen and KO him in the 2nd.
Sakara vs. Vedepo: If I bet money, Sakara would be the hole in my bank account. Always finding new ways to lose, always finding me rooting for him. I enjoy the Sakara. Sakara by TKO in the 1st. If he loses it will be something else inexplicable.
Schafer vs. Alexander: I don't believe in Alexander, I am not that interested in Schafer. I don't think Alexander the powerlifter has the wrestling chops to hang in with Schafer. I think it will probably be ground dominance for Schafer. Nevertheless, I am calling a win by KO for Alexander in the first 30 seconds.
Herman vs. Belcher: Ed Herman is the UFC Frankenstein, he is big and plodding and you can't figure out how he is beating everyone. I now have some faith in him. Herman by grinding decision. He will take a submission if it is there.
Danzig vs. Guida: I have talked about Evan Tanner's singularity all week. Now that he is gone, it doesn't mean that the sport is devoid of its indivdualists. Mac Danzig is an interesting dude. I world class grump and an wthletic vegan. His photos are actually pretty decent too. I like Guida as well. He always wears his carpenter union patches. That rules. Guida goes 100% for all three rounds. Guida is a better wrestler than Danzig. He has good stand-up. I think Danzig's stand-up is getting better and better. I would assume that his cardio is getting better. His sprawl is good. His subs are sick. His grit is undeniable. I am a Danzig fan and he think he is going to hang in, be losing and pull off an oportunistic sub in the 3rd.
Diaz vs. Neer: Some people are full of piss and vinegar. The Diazs are full of piss, refined mixed into vinegar and brewed up in a still up in the mountains with strychnine and nitroglycerin and then thrown in the revenuers eyes and then those tears are refined through the same process. Whne I give a rundown of Nate Diaz I might as well be giving a rundown of Nick. I haven't really seen their games differ that much. As usual regarding the terrible two any analysis I make is irrelevant as I will never bet against a Diaz. That being he case, Neer is a better wrestler. Neer can put Diaz on his back. WIll it matter? Does he want him there? Subject to much criticism, I like how the Diazs box. I think they know what they are doing. I think Nate will damage Neer on the feet. One of Neers eyes will be swollen coming into the 3rd round. He will desperately take down Diaz who will find a space and sub him.
There it is kids. Drink one for your dead homies. Find a dadgum roof for Chad's house. Wake up Arash Markazi, he is sleeping on the frat porch. Here we goes.

The house is all right, the fence is not. We still have no power. Everyone around is going bat shit crazy for gasoline. I am back at the schoolhouse listening to MMA Sunday School.
