UFC on Fox Prediction Results: I was 239-166-3 coming in, and did pretty good. What a night of fights, especially each one building up the main event of the evening. The Guida and Henderson fight was great as promised. Both guys wanted it but Benson came away and now will fight Frankie Edgar in Japan supposedly. The main event, I was rooting for JDS and bo did he deliver. A great win for a truly good person.  Overall, I went 6-3-1 (I expect Peralta’s TKO to be a NC soon) and I am now 245-169-4… my winning percentage remains at 59%
