Going with Pendergarst here... Eilers is tough, but is obviously somewhat limited. IMHO unless Sherman allows him to brawl this fight should end with Justin on his back taking punishment for a TKO loss early.
It's off to AC for the weigh-in. We'll try to get some pics of the weigh-in posted here.
Ill say Eilers in the first round. 4 minutes in.
TTT
So far, the tally is:
4 votes - Sherman Pendergarst

Sorry... There was a last minute change with the hotel and some really bad weather and traffic driving down to AC. Much better day today. Got to the weigh-in late. I'll find out if I can get some pics from the photographer. Don't want to give away any secrets, but Sherman has been doing some notable training with some notable people and looks trim and ready. Didn't get a chance to see Eilers. We're on our way to the Rich Franklin seminar. I'll remember to bring my camera.
Looks like at this point, only 9 people have a FREE chance at winning "two pairs of Combat Sports International Professional MMA gloves".
This contest closes in 12 hours (8:00 pm EST). Make a guess. It's FREE.

I hope this works. If the posting works, the image is Pendergarst at weigh-in. If it doesn't work, then the image is of a naked round card girl.
USKBASPORTS,
2 notables in one sentence, that's notable...
Good Luck to Sherman. He has worked hard for this fight.
I'll try to upload some additional pics from the weigh-in before I have to get over to Boardwalk Hall for the show. The pics are courtesy of MMA Weekly - Lenny Campbell.
