    I see Lyoto, either taking this by decision or taking Rashad out late. Shad has gotten tough to pick against, he is finding a way to come back and finish fights, he's got the KO power but Machida is a different animal. Nobody knows how to fight this guy. He just picks you apart and is rarely there for you to reply with something.. Evans is a slow starter, he's gonna be behind and needs a KO to win. I don't see him getting it..

    Hughes i see winning a decision or pounding out Serra. If this guy still in any way resembles the fighter that controlled and won a decision against Chris Lytle, he'll do the same to Serra or get rid of him. Serra is a small 170er, with not very good takedown defense. Hughes is a to sub from the bottom. Made a career killing guys from top position. Serra has a punchers chance, he hits pretty hard but that's about it..

    Sherk grinds out another one..

    If Hughes is shot, then i guess Serra will win but, Serra never really fights so who knows? He got his ass kicked by GSP and then took a year off.. I am going with the wrestling and experience of Hughes here. Serra is a small 170 er who really should be at 155.. I will say from the interviews i have seen, while Serra is being his usual talking self, Hughes seems quietly very confident he is gonna win this easy. We'll see if he is underestimating Serra or is confident because he feels great coming into this fight..

    Here is how I see Rashad. I see him as a scary good fighter who is still lacking in the head. He is incredibly y and thats good...thats why he wasn't scared of Chuck. But I think around round 2 or 3 Lyoto is going to frustrate the out of him and Rashad will start doing something stupid, throw out his game plan and Lyoto will see one small opening and take Rashad out.

    This is a very close fight...incredible match-up.

    It is tough because Rashad has shown the ability to turn it all around very quickly, he could do it again here. But i see Machida really just being too much. He is talking like this is his moment, it's his time to shine. I think it will be..

    Yeah...and just to be clear I won't be shocked if Lyoto loses. So hard to pick a fight when neither fighter has lost, is young and is on such a huge upswing we don't know if they have peaked yet.

    When you add up total talent these guys are just so badass and once again I think the only clear difference is Rashad's head.

    Looks like my pics pretty much differ from everyone else so far so this fight will either set me back or catapult me up to John.

    Something telling me this will be a good fight. (main event)

    Both fighters have amazing styles which if they clash it could be something to watch.

    Powerfull fighter vs a technique fighter. Most fans saying that Lyoto will win and well he is a favorite to win this fight. I don't know why but I bet on Evans. He proved so many people wrong and well I wouldn't be me not to bet on underdog. But if Rashard is really an underdog? He is a champ afterall and that all talking will keeps him motivated. I can't wait to see this fight really.
    I want to see how good machida is on the ground on his back.

    Someday somebody will figure out the Machida puzzle - but I'm predicting it's not going to be Rashad. This has the potential to be the most uneventful (not boring, just cautious on both sides) 5-rounder we've seen in a long time or one of the most spectacular knockouts of the year. Everybody keep your fingers crossed for the latter.
