Who	Weight Class
Mike Brown vs. Daniel Pineda	Featherweight
Kyle Kingsbury vs. Glover Teixeira	Light Heavyweight
Jacob Volkmann vs. Paul Sass	Lightweight

The premier matchup is undoubtedly Brown vs. Pineda.

Brown is a former featherweight champion. Pineda has won seven straight fights. This sets up a very interesting preliminary battle.

Brown has fallen from grace against better competition as of late, but his grappling skills are still top notch. He can overpower Pineda late in this match, something Pineda has had a problem with whenever he does happen to lose.

Pineda is one of the hottest fighters in MMA today, but Brown will put a stop to that run tonight.

Now, the preliminary fights taking place on FX.

*Preliminary coverage begins at 8 p.m.EST on FX.

Who	Weight Class
Dan Hardy vs. Duane Ludwig	Welterweight
Jason Miller vs. C.B. Dollaway	Middleweight
Edson Barboza vs. Jamie Varner	Lightweight
Diego Brandao vs. Darren Elkins	Featherweight

Hardy and Ludwig provide a great matchup in this grouping. Ludwig has been one of MMA's best strikers for a very long time and Hardy used to be one of the sport's biggest rising stars.

Both are dangerous, but Hardy is more fit to win. Ludwig struggles to take any punishment, and Hardy loves to dish it out.

Dollaway and Miller should be interesting as well.

Both are above average wrestlers with so-so reputations overall. Dollaway and Miller will put on a master display of submission and grappling techniques this evening.
