Time for predictions and my response to Mr. Cofield for picking Evans over Machida. The main event is going to be certainly exciting. You have someone who everyone love’s to hate and a guy who has bored people to death in a few of his fights just to come back and dish out a knock [...]
UFC 97 is upon us and we have some good match-ups on our hands. Silva should be the favorite to win against Leites. But Chuck Liddell vs. Rua is the one to watch for. The loser is probably done ever getting a title shot in the UFC, and Rua could actually be out of a [...]
Tonight, we are going to see Jackson go against Jardine, so I thought it’d be fun to show a trailer of them fighting inside UFC’s newest game. But unlike in the game, this fight shouldn’t last that long unless Jackson messes up badly. Jackon should win in the 2nd round.
Foxnews had a roundtable on UFC 91 and the mega fight between Randy and Brock. But folks gave Lesnar a hard time for getting a title shot. Dana did his best to defend the fight. Having said that, I still think these folks didn’t give Lesnar much respect. I think Lesnar will win this fight [...]
Time for predictions and my response to Mr. Cofield for picking Evans over Machida. The main event is going to be certainly exciting. You have someone who everyone love’s to hate and a guy who has bored people to death in a few of his fights just to come back and dish out a knock out to Silva. Machida has not been hit, and it’d be interesting to see whether Evans can catch him with a good shot. Evans will probably try to use his wrestling for a ground and pound win as I can’t see him knocking out Machida on the feet. I do expect Machida to lay down a beating on Evans (similar to that he did to Tito) and probably even knock him out (like Rich Franklin).
Matt Hughes vs. Matt Serra is the freak show of the night. Both of these guys are out of the title picture, and to be honest no one really cares who wins this fight. GPS and Thiago Alves are a level above both of these folks, but my pick is Serra in this fight. Matt Hughes is just too into his retirement to put up a good fight.
Finally, Sherk vs. Edgar is going to be an interesting fight. I can’t pick against Sherk as he has yet to lose against a non-elite fighter. Sherk is not going to win a title against a Penn or GSP but he’ll be dangerous. Florian vs. Sherk rematch or a fight with Sanchez should be good.
There you have it. It’s going to be an exciting event with possibly a new LHW champ by the end of the night. Who are you picks for this main card?
