Once again, another PPV UFC event, and the fight card with my predictions.
Chuck Liddell Vs. Randy Couture
While I'm a huge fan of Chuck, I have to go with Couture on this one. I think he's a smarter fighter, and realizes his weaknesses, while Chuck thinks he can just pound away and win. Look for a fast takedown by Couture.
Frank Mir Vs. Marcio Cruz
While Mir has been out of the game for a while, he'll be hungry for a win to get him back into title shot range. Mir, 100%
Renato Sobral Vs. Mike Van Arsdale
I haven't seen fights by either fighter, but Renato has more professional fights under his belt, so I'll go with him.
Alessio Sakara Vs. Elvis Sinosic
Once again, I don't know these fighters all that well. I'm going with Elvis.
Brandon Vera Vs. Justin Eilers
Vera, easily.
Paul Buentello Vs. Gilbert Aldana
I've never been a fan of Buentello; he strikes me as the same type of fighter as Sylvia--big, and difficult to fight, but really not overly skilled. Aldana.
Jeff Monson Vs. Branden Lee Hinkle
If they actually show this fight, then it'd be a good time to grab another drink or fill up the chip bowl. Way too many guys over 200 fighting, could be a slow night. As for this fight, flipped a coin, and I'll go with the Snowman.
Nick Diaz Vs. Joe Riggs
Ahhh, now this could be a great fight. Hopefully Riggs being 170 isn't an issue anymore, and he's back to his psycho self. As badass as Riggs is, I have to go with Diaz on this one. May be the best fight of the night.
Keith Jardine Vs. Mike Whitehead
How Whitehead is even getting a PPV fight is beyond me; Matt must have forgiven him for his pathetic showing during the TUF season, and pulled a few strings. Regardless, Keith will take it.
So, there you have it. I have to pull a 14hr nightshift tonight, so I'll only catch the results via the internet if I have time. The rest of you lucky feckers can sit back and enjoy the show!!
