Soto decsion over Osipczak
Lentz 2nd Rnd Sub over Winner
Lauzon 1st Rnd Sub over Ruediger

[The Enforcer]

I agree with your predictions, Except, I see Penn Subbing Edgar in a later Rd.

just watching Coture beating the crap out of Toney makes this card worth watching

Last nights card was very boring. The only good fight I thought was the Diaz fight.
