Main card
Light Heavyweight bout: Quinton Jackson vs. Lyoto Machida
- Machida has the mind of a champion, and even though he might not have the belt or win it again, he is very dangerous for any style of fighter. Rampage is done, I think, his heart is gone and it's just business to him. Machida by KO.
Welterweight bout: Matt Hughes vs. B.J. Penn
- BJ cares very deeply about his legacy, and I think this is it if he can't win. Hughes is just having a good time and developing some things he missed during his reign at WW. It will be a much different match, probably slower and more deliberate than ever before for both fighters...but BJ needs this win badly, so I'll choose him.
Middleweight bout: Gerald Harris vs. Maiquel Falcão
- This fight doesn't make sense other than from a promotional standpoint because it will be Harris's coming out party against a TOUGH Brazilian KO artist. The UFC wants this one to be a war and show Harris is a beast...so I say he takes this via GnP when Falcao gasses in the 3rd.
Light Heavyweight bout: Phil Davis vs. Tim Boetsch
- I'm liking Davis, but I actually think this will be kind of a boring fight to a decision.
Lightweight bout: George Sotiropoulos vs. Joe Lauzon
- Very tough fight to call, I like both fighters. Both guys have amazing ground games, but I think George is faster. I actually think Joe is the tougher fighter willing to stand and exchange, he isn't afraid to rush you, but George isn't going to let himself get tagged so I expect this to be 3 rounds of high level BJJ on display. George neutralizes Joe and takes the split decision.
