Predictions: 7 of 10 Winners, 4 Perfect, 515 Points   |   Tied for 32nd with 10 others

Prelims kick off on FS2 (annoying) at 8pm ET followed by the main card on FS1 at 10pm. 

Don't miss the early fights, as they're some of the better ones on an overall decent card. 

Hope they keep Koscheck off the broadcast, though ... his desk work during the weigh-ins was truly cringeworthy.

Can't wait! Wasn't all that excited for this card but since I got free tickets and they are pretty good seats it should be fun!

The placement of this card is terrible. Mcmann goes from title shot to near bottom of a FS1 card.

@vazio Rafael Cordeiro, founder of Kings MMA and renowned trainer of guys from Anderson Silva to Shogun to Wanderlei Silva to Cyborg to Fabricio Werdum to Lyoto Machida, etc. called Ticman easily one of the most talented fighters he's ever coached and says he fights like Wanderlei did in PRIDE.  Cordeiro has had Ticman be the other cornerman in a few recent Kings MMA fighter's fights.  Most recently I believe being Beniel Dariush's last fight.  He got in by Cordeiro's praise of him to UFC brass.  We'll see if he lives up to Rafael's hype.

Yeah, he's 4-1 with a loss by doctor stoppage.  I have no idea if he was winning and got a fluke injury causing the stoppage or was getting beat down.  I do know he's hyper aggressive which should either lead to an early finish or play right into Saenz TD's if he is constantly over-committing and doesn't get the finish.  Definitely a coin-flip, Ticman could've improved way beyond his record taking these last two years off to focus on training under Cordeiro.  A lot of questions it'd be good to know now will be answered in the fight.
