Evans is kind of like Machida, in the sense that he seems to do best against opponents who push the pace so that he can wait for them to make mistakes. Tito and Bisping never really pulled the trigger, so Rashad didn't have an opportunity to exploit.

Rashad vs. Machida would probably be one of the most boring fights of all time. No, excuse me, I mean one of the most "Evasive" fights of all time.

Damn, i bet Bisping wants Rich to win because he knows he would have a easier time with him, Hendo would blanket his ass.

Agreed. Hendo by decision over both Ace and Bisping

I doubt that Rich will pick Dan apart though i give Rich a points advantage standing. The problem is that Dan will press foward and keep Rich Retreating and I expect that Rich will respect Dan's power and also will have trouble getting Dan to Respect his. Once the fight hits the ground Dan will (unfortuneately) LNP because Rich is good getting up and is very active on the ground and has highly underrated BJJ.

I think destroy is a little too much. I would take both Hendo and Ace by decision though.

Happened to Nog.

If Franklin wins I don't see him going back down in weight to fight Bisping.
Maybe that's why Bisping wants him to win.
