This card is getting me as jittery as when Gandalf and the Nazgul King met at Minas Tirith!
Is it time to bump this thread? :p

I don't know if you guys like to watch these, but they usually give good behind the scenes/personal/training insight on what goes on leading up to the fight.
Love them
Thanks for the reminder
MAIN CARD (Pay-per-view)
* Champ Anderson Silva vs. Vitor Belfort (for middleweight le) hopefully no ring rust
* Forrest Griffin vs. Rich Franklin (not picking a winner, just want to enjoy the fight)
* Jake Ellenberger vs. Carlos Eduardo Rocha
* Ryan Bader vs. Jon Jones
* Antonio Banuelos vs. Miguel Torres
PRELIMINARY CARD ( e TV)

Paul Kelly vs. Donald Cerrone
Chad Mendes vs. Michihiro Omigawa
Silva

Torres
Cerrone
Griffin
MAIN CARD
Anderson Silva vs. Vitor Belfort - War Vitor!
Forrest Griffin vs. Rich Franklin - I can't choose, but it's going to decision.
Jake Ellenberger vs. Carlos Eduardo Rocha - Despite being kind of boring, Ellenberger is a tough dude and I don't see him getting submitted by Rocha's resume.
Ryan Bader vs. Jon Jones - Bader is scared.
Antonio Banuelos vs. Miguel Torres - The mystique is gone from Torres, but he's got some nasty tricks that makes him exciting to watch.
PRELIMINARY CARD
Paul Kelly vs. Donald Cerrone - Cowboy is coming to prove the WEC belongs among the UFC's best, so I expect him to finish this by the 2nd round.

Rich and Forrest is such a tough one to call. I love Rich so i will probably vote with my fandom..
Come on.. You are not picking Rich/Forrest.. That is weak man..
Weak..
Bunch of wussies..
We're usually allowed 1 undercard pick if we don't want to ruin a main card fight by picking sides.Bunch of wussies..
I'll probably never win a season because i only pick the Main Card.We're usually allowed 1 undercard pick if we don't want to ruin a main card fight by picking sides.
I'm always all in baby...
Com'n man! I'm really hoping it will end up in a draw + FOTN award! No one would lose!Come on.. You are not picking Rich/Forrest.. That is weak man..
Weak..
Both fighters said they have almost identical fighting abilities and tendencies, but then again Forrest said that that long time off gave him the time to totally redo his technique. I'm interested to see how much it has changed.
* Champ Anderson Silva vs. Vitor Belfort (for middleweight le) I think Silva is going to win, but I simply can't pick him on principle. Go yourself, Anderson.
* Forrest Griffin vs. Rich Franklin Are you ting me? Rich is still a bad ass.
* Ryan Bader vs. Jon Jones LOL Bader... If this fight goes more than two minutes, I'll be shocked. SHOCKED.
* Antonio Banuelos vs. Miguel Torres How Torres gets on the main card over Cerrone is a head scratcher. At least we don't have to listen to WEC Todd call him, "Miguel On Torres" like he's some master of the spanish language.

Trout i look forward to your fight picks so much.. The comedy gold that comes with is just so great..
MAIN CARD (Pay-per-view)
* Champ Anderson Silva vs. Vitor Belfort (for middleweight le)
I'll take Vitor here for 3 reasons. 1) Neither guy has wrestling or any interest in the TD so it will stay standing. 2) Vitor has the best chance on the feet of anyone Silva has fought in the UFC. He has real KO power and great hand speed. 3) I hate Silva and am dying to see him get laid the out..
* Forrest Griffin vs. Rich Franklin
Taking Rich because he has so much experience against so many great fighters. He's fought really every style. To me he is the most under-rated legend in all of MMA. I like that he is a south-paw here and i think he has a more well versed stand up game. This is very close, neither guy has huge power so i see a decision either way. Maybe even a SD but i got Ace FTW here. War Rich...
* Jake Ellenberger vs. Carlos Eduardo Rocha
Jake has too much experience..
* Ryan Bader vs. Jon Jones*
Bones Jones is gonna walk right through Bader. I don't even think this will be a fight. Jones is like GSP in that he chews wrestlers up and spits them out. Bader is really only gonna win if he controls the fight with TD's and Bones is too strong, to good at wrestling and too athletic for that to happen. Jones will be the one getting it down and i have him putting Bader away with GNP late first or early 2nd round..
Antonio Banuelos vs. Miguel Torres
I miss talking some MMA with you guys.
Silva
Franklin
Jones

We miss you Bro..
Hope all is well..
I rarely order PPVs but this one's calling my name.

The stakes are being upped (but not really).
Belfort
Griffin
Jones
Ellenburger
Torres
Cerrone
