Powell's POV: I did my best to drop hints to my girlfriend and 17 year-old niece that watching UFC would be fun, but it turned into movie night with viewings of Forgetting Sarah Marashall and Tropic Thunder. Sigh. Hey, it could have been worse. At least they prefer comedies over chick flicks. As for my predictions, I went 1-1 with Silva winning and Florian losing.
