Can't pick against Rampage even though I think he'll lose.
Such a great card and then it gets even better the following week with UFC 156.

I'm not a big fan of the flyweights either but it shouldn't be a bad fight. Not a fight I would want to pay for and it won't be one of the fights of the year like a lot of people will claim but IMO it's worth watching.

I'm actually a bit interested in this flyweight fight as I think Dodson is a little ********. Would like to see MM win it but I don't think it'll happen.

Reason: championship belt win via decision
I don't mean to sound ignorant, but is the only reason Johnson-Dodson is the main over Tex-Rampage because it's a title fight? I havn't watched a flyweight fight before so it should be interesting anyway.

If this main event and Rousey's main event swapped undercards/cities I wonder which card would sell better. As disinterested as some may be in the headline fight, it seems to be carrying ticket sales more than Rousey is.

I think Dodson may win, but I can't bring myself to bet on him to win. With Rampage, I may change my pick after the weigh-in.
I like flyweight, I do not like Johnson. Have far more interest in the Benavidez-McCall fight next month than this. Do not think Johnson will be champ at 125 for long but he's fighting somebody way too similar to himself with absolutely no advantages over him in any facet.
