Derek Downey will surprise. Keep it on the main card, The UFC finally has a middleweight worthy of title-contention.

Been 3 years since Alexander has been passed the 1st round, win or lose. Will continue on in this fight, Gusmao TKO 3rd minute.

Stout needs to stop having fights go to a decision. Don’t think this will be the fight he does it, Wiman by UD.

Catone 1st round 3rd minute TKO.

Catone vs Downey should be bumped down from main card and Anthony Rumble Johnson vs Luigi Fioravanti should be put onto the main card.

Alexander is in another fight? Don’t know too much about gusmao but if watches Houston’s tape all he has to is get him to the ground and make him tap, but seeing houston standing over someone he knocked out yelling at him would be pretty sweet though.

Wiman didn’t look bad his last fight but Miller just looked amazing. Wiman should pound on Stout on the ground and then finish the fight standing. I got Wiman in the 2nd

Downey-Catone hmmm… I’ll take the undefeated Catone haha

Its good to see Houston getting back in there, hopefully he triped and fell broke a toe got slapped by his momma and found something that looks remotely like a ground game… I like Alxeander but the guy needs to get his shhh together, I think that his story is good and he is a pretty good standup fighter, but he needs this win bad… I wish to make it to the show on May 23rd but as of now im not quite sure..

Wiman~Stout, I dont know but my gut tells me to go with Wiman
Downey~Catone mehhhhh

Looks like UFN 17 has filled out again, I’m glad they found replacements. I’m not nearly as interested in seeing Downey-Catone as I was Sadollah-Catone, but it could still be a good fight. Alexander v. Gusmao is probably a loser leaves fight, Alexander on the feet, Gusmao if it goes to the ground. Wiman v. Stout should be a good fight, I think Wiman is safe win or lose, but Stout could be looking for a promotion if he loses. Wiman definitely needs to have a better showing than he did against Jim Miller, he looked pathetic in that fight.

Not bad match-ups. but it sucks that Stout is fighting Wiman as I’m a fan of both and I think the loser is going to be on the back tread for a while. I say Stout on the feet and Wiman on the ground.
