There are a lot of fights on this card that I'm really not confident in re: my picks.

To be honest i hate making picks on this card because all the fights are 50/50 and could go either way just my opinion though + it being a Ultimate Fighter Finale card being that i don't even watch TUF anymore so lol.

I switched to Claudia last minute. For some reason this year is the year of title changes.

Stipe beating Fabrico
Bisping beating Rockhold
Alvarez beating RDA
Cruz beating Dillashaw
Tate beating Holm

5/10 switched in less than a year. Seems like a trend. We will see what happens. It will be interesting.

This is my best season to date since joining Tapology. I was like 43rd or something close to that going into Fight Night 90 and now I'm 19th heading into the last event of the season. I don't think I'll be able to get into the top 5 though because of all the TUF, I mean tough fights on this card plus I picked a little too many Decisions. Anyways I'm happy with this season because I told myself anywhere inside of top 100 would be a success.

Now that I mentioned this I'll most likely crash and burn.

I like Leech here, but we didn't get to see much of Zafir in his debut in his debut. He's still a big question mark to me.

Matthews-Lee has barnburner potential.

I always like Kevin Lee. But inconsistent performances and his fights going completely against what one would easily assume, makes him a guy who I always feel I'm gonna get wrong when I bet on his fights.

Anyone else like this w/ Kevin???

Even though I'm from the Detroit area Im not a fan of Lee. But I'm surprised on all the love for Matthews honestly. That's a pretty even fight in my book but I think Lee takes a close decision.
