wow Leland….I have picked the exact opposite of your predictions with the execption of the Lytle fight. Nog “had” a solid chin. I dunno….after his lights went out fighting Heath Herring…his chin is questionable. Sylvia packs major power in his jabs and kicks. I see him testing Nogs chin and knocking him out with an overhand right.

I picked Nate Marquardt to win that fight and Jeremy Horn is ma boy!! haha. Match them up them up when Horn was about 5 years younger and i got Horn….but Horn is just not the same fighter as he used to be…..I am rootin for him though!

Sylvia- He knows he has to win with a KO and will come out and throw in bunches and has excellent takedown defense.

Mir- With his experience he will fight smarter than Lesnar, utilize leg kicks and use any mistake Lesnar makes to pull a submission. As much as people tout wrestlers witnes GSP vs Hughes as to a wrestlers shortcomings. Not that Mir is GSP but still.

Horn – To much experience and savy; Nate hasn’t displayed the KO power to stop him.

Almedia – Was, and still will be a very tough well rounded fighter, Yundt just doesn’t have the skills or the experience coming from AFC

Griffin – Just a better all around fighter.

Lytle – Experience and quality of competition.

Eastman – I feel Eastman will take this one though it could go either way. It’s hard to say who is the better striker of the 2 but for some reason I give the edge to Eastman.

Heath – More experience against better opponents usually means a better fighter and skills. Saying that Babalu showed his weakness is interesting, he did but he is one of the best out there; anyone that thinks Boetsch can do the same is perhaps on crack.

Nakamura – From what I have seen and remember of Nakamura he should win this easily; superior skillset.
