That was crazy. My picks are horrible. Don't think I have got one right.

Up Next...

The co-main event :

I think we're both 2-2

This is where we go in different directions... whoever gets this one correct, will be the prognosticator with the most correct picks and points for our predictions.

Philippou looking just a tad better than Larkin so far... he seems to be the stronger of the 2 fighters, and appears to be able to manhandle Larkin in the clinch.

Damn... these fellas are goin' at it on the feet !
