Pickett Decision. Gonna be a fast pace barnburner, Pickett is one of my faves and thats why I'm taking him
Leben 1st Round TKO. I think Munoz has a fragile chin Damien Maia put him on wobbly legs and I see Leben putting him down and out fairly early.

I went 9/10, only missing Diabate. Figured he could avoid Perosh's awful takedown attempts and utilize his much more refined stand-up. As soon as it hit the floor I knew it was over. Pickett is an alright fighter but he's not someone who can defeat Barao. His father was a boxer and now a boxing coach and he's a BJJ black belt at Nova Uniao. That = success.

Nothing on the card was shocking but it was entertaining.
