Deliberate and insightful analysis, Wandy. I think we can all agree where our money is going on Saturday.

I'm rooting for Matt Brown, Little Nog, and and Bobby Green but they are all underdogs.

The only guy on saturday I don't have any rooting interest in is Clay Guida. Not so much because of his Hatsu Hioki and Kawijri and GRAY MAYNARD and handful of other recent bad fights, nope, but because Dennis Bermudez always puts on a show and Guida has already had many chances. It's time for Dennis to be the fun wrestler that Guida stopped being long ago. Also I wasn't aware that Bermudez is also currently on a 6 fight win streak so a win over Guida would put him in a big fight. Maybe the winner fights Edgar next.

But yeah any combination of Lawler/Brown/Thomson/Green/Nog/Rumble winning I would be okay with since they all have things I like about them.

Other than that I hope Cruickshank brings it to Masvidal. That fight isn't getting enough attention.

I also don't like Clay Guida and hope Bermudez wins. Everyone needs to watch Matt Grice vs Dennis Bermudez that was literally one of the coolest back and forth holy poo poo no one should be able to survive this poo poo fights. It is on par with decision dan vs shogun.

The rabbits knocked over Lawler, which either means he wins or he's getting sparked out.
The bird picked Brown without question.

A draw after 5 rounds of brutal brawling confirmed.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

But maybe the rabbit follows Guess Who? rules and by knocking down Lawler it is deeming Brown, the one standing, the victor.

It looks poo poo because it's hard to get the good parts and have it look good to fit avatar file size, so this is the best I can do for it in-case anyone wanted.

There is a serious dog deficiency in the PSP pet shop so I decided that my Golden Retriever should take a stab at a prediction. He is very telegenic:



On the one hand he's a Golden so he's basically love with an appetite. On the other hand he's named after a dog genius so maybe he's super smart.

Anyway here's the video. Sorry it's vertical and not horizontal, I don't have much experience with videos. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpW3iN3FcJ4
