This weekend's card, which takes place at the FedEx Forum in Memphis, Tennessee, features fan favorite UFC lightweight champion B.J. Penn and The Ultimate Fighter winner Diego Sanchez in the main event. In the co-main event former UFC champion Frank Mir faces dangerous striker Cheick Kongo.

The main card is rounded out by a lightweight clash between The Ultimate Fighter finalist Kenny Florian and Clay Guida. Top three welterweight Jon Fitch faces Mike Pierce in Pierces second UFC appearance, and heavyweights Paul Buentello and Stefan Struve have found their way to each other.

The undercard features a wealth of talent as well including Rousimar Palhares, TUF 9 finalist DaMarques Johnson, Matt Wiman, T.J. Grant, and an exciting middleweight bout between Alan Belcher and Wilson Gouveia.

Another Pick comes in from Mike Reilly - Team Bison: Penn vs Sanchez

Sanchez has a unique ability to make exciting fighters boring. He takes people out of their game, makes them hesitant. He is a frustrating fighter. Penn over the last few years has developed the premier skill set in the world. He also over came his early career cardio weakness. But against the night mare he will also have to tap into his patience. The fighter that loses patience in this bout will be the fighter that loses. If Penn stays in his game he will get a ref stoppage or a decision. If he loses patience Diego will make him pay.

I predict Penn will fight smart and controlled and take a 49-46 decision.

Someone is gonna get KTFO in the Kongo - Mir Fight!

kimbo and Tyson at the Game awards tonight, maybe a backstage brawl?

Anywho, I hope they show the Palhares win on the PPV telecast.

Tyson was looking a little large................no way he is fighting Sapp next year..........

I never even heard of Funch or that Edgar before.

and I am excited to see that giant Skyscraper dude.
