Who you got???

I'm taking Chael over Anderson.    I do think this is a long shot but Chael is an Oregon Duck so I must stick with my boys.

Forrest over Tito.   More of a wish than a pick. Both of these guys are hard to figure, it really depends on who shows up.   I almost went with Tito just because he should be hyped for his last fight.

Cote over Le.    I think Le is overrated.   I remember after the Shamrock fight (Mar 08) people wanted to see him and Anderson.   Since then he's split fights with Scott Smith and lost to Wand.    In that same period of time Anderson has beat - Hendo,  Irvin, Cote, Leites, Griffin, Maia, Sonnen, Belfort and Okami.   

Kim over Maia.    Seems like Kim is on the rise.

I'll take McKenzie over Mendez.

I believe it will be AS, Cote, Forrest, Maia and Mendez for the big W tonight. Therefore none of them will actually be able to win due to some kind of strange law in the universe that says my picks must always be wrong.

I will go AS, Le, Forrest, Maia, Mendez. I am also ALWAYS wrong. 

I have a feeling AS will destroy the Chael. Therefore Chael might win by KO.

I thought the Ortiz vs. Griffin decision was absolutely terrible.  Forrest wasknocked down 2x and taken down several other times.  It didn't seem like Forrest landed anything with any power.  I am a Griffin fan as well.... just thought Tito was cheated.

The clever combatant imposes his will on the enemy, but does not allow the enemy's will to be imposed on him.

^Same. But, I DID pick him to win, and like UTN called every other fight on the main card. I really should have done a parlay....my friend who knows nothing about MMA made $100 from betting on the Silva fight based on my suggestion I should take a percentage. Good night of fights but wtf was Sonnen thinking with that spinning back fist that ended up costing him the fight.

man, I have to watch that fight again.  So baffled to see him scoot back and sit against the cage, so weird.

Great first round, than that.. sigh.

also, noticed a few people (elsewhere) calling it an early stoppage, though I didnt think it would change anything if it lasted a bit longer.
