UFC 106 - November 21, 2009
Forrest can't do much worse than his last fight - disastrous fight. I think he comes out swinging in this one. I got him by TKO.

Looking forward to Koscheck vs. Johnson fight. Love watching Johnson fight, one of my favorite fighters as of late.
i hope griffin knocks tito the fuck out.
amir vs phil is an odd matchup, I think phil will out muscle amir, but if amir can weather the first round, the fight is his...baroni has no gas!
and I hate how ortiz claims that he can never get a good training camp in...except for this fight. He has hyped up his last 4 fights like that and I am starting to not believe him. plus he sucks at fighting. war forrest.

Excluding split decisions and fights against Ken Shamrock, Ortiz has precisely one win in the last eight years: a boring, lay-and-pray win over a bloated 205-lb Patrick Cote.
The best fight on this card should be Minotoro versus Banha. Cane is probably the better striker, and the fight should take place mostly on the feet which gives him an advantage. But his edge standing isn't necessarily huge, and I think Nogueira has the superior gas tank and a much better ground game. Overall, I see this fight as a toss up.
If Anthony Johnson lives up to the hype, his fight with Koscheck could be good as well, but I have a sneaking suspicion he'll be exposed badly on saturday, just like I felt he was when he fought Rich Clementi. Here's hoping I'm wrong there.
Saunders versus Davis should be good as well. The two are headed in opposite directions: Davis is 36 and doesn't seem to be showing much improvement anymore, whereas Saunders is a prospect. Still, Davis is probably a bit too much for Saunders at this point.
Uno-Camoes is likely to be a slow-paced technical grappling battle; as such, it's very unlikely to make the broadcast. Both guys have serious skills, though, so I'm looking forward to catching it later.

If Tito really is stronger and faster than he has ever been (which I think is total bullshit), Forrest got some work to do... otherwise, I see a ton of jabs and low kicks coming Tito's way to try to keep him from going for a takedown. Forrest is either gonna wear him out and finish him in the third or win by decision.
Im really looking for the Rumble match... I really hope he knocks Koscheck silly.
Looking forward to this card, seems like ages ago that Brock and Carwin was supposed to be on this, anyway to fights at hand.
Forrest vs. the biggest head in mma(figuratively and literally)- I think Forrest will win this, yea his last fight was a disaster, but Tito is no spider. I think if Forrest sticks to the game plan he and couture and the rest of his people formulate he will take it. Keep lemon head at bay with kicks and jabs, win will be decision.
Rumble vs. Kos- We'll see what weight Rumble comes in at. Going from 220-170 is not smart, sounds like he only went up to 200 this time but still if Kos can get this into round 2 he could win.
Cane vs. Rogerio- has potential to be fight of the night. I'll leave it at that.
Amir vs. New York- I think Amir will win, but will look like he lost at the post fight presser. Phil will land a few shots, but Amir will get a sub on him.
Would love to watch Caol fight, but Arbiter is right here, going to be a grappler's match, other fights are going to have to end very early for this one to be shown.

Luiz Cane vs. Antonio Rogerio Nogueira will the be the fight of the night. Really hoping for a quick knockout by Johnson, I really can't stand Koscheck and his lay & pray.
Sotiropoulos is a monster on the ground...brilliant.
Great under card so far..
Way better boxing!
