Predictions:

Prelims:
Njokuani 2nd Round TKO
Volkmann Decision
Gamburyan Decision
Ramos Decision
DHK Decision
Pearson 3rd Round TKO

Main:
Phan Decision
Gustafsson 2nd Round TKO
Fitch Decision. I want Hendricks but I don't see Fitch losing to anyone at WW besides GSP
Cerrone Decision
Overeem 2nd Round Sub. When I first heard of this matchup I thought WOW Lesnar is gonna get absolutely demolished, I've let up on that and I'm giving him a pretty good chance to win. But I still think Ubereem catches him early in the 2nd and Lesnar folds and Reem takes his back and finishes with a RNC.

Fight of the Night: Cerrone/Diaz
KO of the Night: Gustafsson
Sub of the Night: Overeem

Diaz Decision (4-5)
Overeem 1st Round TKO (5-5) WOW. My initial take on the fight was dead on. Lesnar didn't even look to belong anywhere near a cage with the Reem.

[The_Legend_of_Northwest]

My stream was pretty bad. So Overeem/Lesnar was the only fight I got to see.

Lesnar retires after the fight. I think its the right choice.

[LICKING COUNTY FAN]

I agree he made the right choice to retire.
Dude had been through hell the last two years.
Hopefully he recovers and lives a great life.

He will be back in WWE within a Year

I don't think his heart was in it anymore. Can't blame him either. I said going in that it was 50/50... whoever did their thing first would win. We know Brock isn't great at striking defense and Alistar has a questionable chin as well. I expected Brock to charge Overeem to the fence and try a takedown but he let Alistar come forward. Worst gameplan ever. Don't understand it. Would have like to seen Brock try it once. I picked Brock just because I don't trust Alistar's takedown defense against someone like Brock, but he never attempted anything significant to test it.

I expected a Cerrone win with how he has looked recently, but hats off to Diaz for being accurate with his striking. Donald just did not get off in the fight like he normally does, that first round really did him in. Happy for Nate.

Shocker of the night is definitely Hendricks. Knew he had KO power but Fitch is Fitch.

Hattes was a pleasant surprise. Thought we'd see Nam be able to strike at range or at least stop takedowns, but when Hattes touched him it was on the mat. Very impressive.

I picked Njokouani to TKO Castillo in the second and he had it... but decided to clinch with a hurt wrestler. I facepalmed.

I started 4-1 heading into the main card with my 50/50 main event pick and what I thought were some sure picks... Nam being mauled and Fitch KO definitely put an end to that. 5-5 overall.

What is next for this guy ? He's too young to completely retire at 34 and does he really have enough money to do it anyway ? I always thought he would perfect for worlds strongest man competition and go up against guys from all over the world . You might be right it might be back to WWE .

Brock

What about him?

[The_Legend_of_Northwest]

The Riddle/Ramos fight was cancelled last second due to Riddle being ill

I finally got to see the whole card. Hettes looked phenomenal, the only thing he lacked was a finish.
