I actually think Hammil is getting KO'd bad in this one.  He carries his hands soooo low and doesn't have much head movement.  Rampage can stuff a good takedown as well.

Yeah probably. However, if Rampage comes in out of shape and unmotivated, I can see Hammil winning a horrendously boring split decision because of take downs and leg kicks.

Hopefully Page comes to fight, finishes Hammil quick and starts preparing for a real fight in his next go round.

It just seems like such a weak card.  After they cancelled the main event they just moved Rampage/Hamill to the main event status.  I don't even think Rampage wants to fight Hamill.  This should be a freebee on Spike.

I wouldn't bet money on any of these...they're all a toss up.

I think Nelson will catch Mir with a solid overhad or upper.  I'm looking forward to this one.

You might be right on the :"horror" Story.  The man is HUNGRY.  Alves better be on his A game.

Seems I am the only one on here that has picked Story over Alves, and you the only one who has picked Santiago over Stann, both should be good fights.

So who you got between Stefan Struve vs. Travis Browne ?

Another one that can go either way. I'll pick Struve.

Thiago was a huge huge huge disappointment.  Nelson and Mir= pretty equal talent wise, I just hate Frank Mir. I never heard of the guy Struve was fighting and I never bothered to look him up, so I picked Struve.

I was really impressed with Story.  Especially his chin. 
Nelson and Mir was sloppy at best.  Nelson is just so outta shape and overweight.  I can't really blame Mir for gassing.  He was fighting a human sized bowling ball with arms. 
I know how you feel about Mir, but i'd like to see how he fares against JDS.
