    That was intentional, but I have no problem adding the fight if that's what everyone wants.

    When adding fights, I like to look at a few things first. I add all the main card bouts. When it comes to the rest of the undercard: Will the fight be broadcast on television or online? Have both fighters competed for a major organization like the UFC, PRIDE, DREAM, EliteXC, StrikeForce, etc...

    This is Kimura's debut for the UFC, and he has only competed in the smaller organizations at the moment. As I said, I have no problems with adding him if most of you think he is known well enough.

    I think if they're in the UFC -- it's almost certain they'll be enough resources to see them fight. I say we do the whole card.

    Isn't it a tad counter productive and unfair to their dream to dismiss them based on their lack of prevelance?

    If they're on the card, were doing them the honor of looking more into their career. :happy

    If we weren't doing Bellator and OneFC as well, I'd say do the whole card, but since there are 3 events running at the same time, most of my picks are gonna be coin flips anyway

    I'm probably going with Hieron by tko or submission. I don't think Woodley has the stamina. Every time Woodley fights recently, I wonder if he can make it out of the 3rd round.

    I'm reminded of my feeling before the Hendo vs Fedor card:
