Definitely watching this. I think Mir will beat Brock again. He looked great against Big Nog. GSP > Alves and Hendo > Bisping. I think Bisping is a prick and hope he gets his ass kicked by Hendo. I could be wrong in my picks because the guys are all good which makes this a great UFC card.

I almost forgot this to, Hendo has bad bjj defense and Bisping has really good and underrated bjj. This could also be a way Hendo goes down.

Thats not true at all. Getting submitted 3 times in your entire career (by BJJ black belts no less) does not qualify you as having bad BJJ defense.

On the contrary, if you look the the caliber guys he's fought over the years, and the grappling credentials of so many of those fighters, you'll see his BJJ defensive is actually awesome.

Totally with you on that one. I think Bisping is going to treat this almost the same way as the Leben fight. Get in, score points, circle out.



I'm going with...

** MAIN CARD **
Mir - Deep down I don't think he'll win, but I really hope he does. Though if he loses at least we can get setup for a trilogy. I know Lesnar doesn't really feel like he lost their first fight, I want to see how he adjusts and comes back after getting what he'd consider a "real loss".
GSP - I think these two will have a GSP/Hughes situation. Alves will take him down in their second meeting in a year or so. If Alves wins I hope its with a left knee when GSP goes for a take down.
Bisping - Reasons above, though I hate him and I'm rooting on Hendo
Fitch - Going to be a mauling
Akiyama - An Akiyama win makes the top of the division much more interesting

** PRELIMS **
Coleman - Going to be close, but I just have that feeling Coleman's going to out muscle him and get a ground and pound TKO. If this goes the distance I think Bonnar will probably have won it
JON BONES JONES - kids on a roll, o'brien won't be the one to stop him
Miller - Should be a close one and I like Danzig, but I don't think he'll have enough to save his job
Lawlor - Because I HAAAAAAAAAAATE Dolloway
Kim - Because I haven't seen enough from TJ Grant
Gugerty - Have the feeling he'll out grapple Grice and get the sub

idk if I'd say its awesome its good, but if anyone gives him trouble its bjj or jujitsu. Bisping is a black belt not only that but he's submitted half the dudes he beat. In my book that spells problems for Hendo. I think Hendo will get the better of the takedowns but in the end he's going down.
