UFC 93
Franklin-UD
Rua-SD
I THINK THE ODDS MAKERS HAVE IT RIGHT EXCEPT FOR MAYBE EVANS GRIFFIN WHICH I WOULD SAY IS EVEN MONEY
I think Hendo is going to KTFO Franklin, this is the type of fighter he is was made to KTFO IMO. This is still a top fighter who just happened to run into two other top fighters in two of his last three bouts.
hendo wont be franklin his striking is way too good!
NOG by TKO 2nd round
GRIFFIN by sub. 2nd or 3rd round
rampage vs silva
hate 2 say it cuz i want silva to go 3-0 but i think rampage has grown a lot as a fighter and will tko silva in the 1st or 2nd round
HENDO VS FRANKLIN
FRANKLin is too good to lose. i think he’ll win
Hendo is not goin to lose to franklin. UD win for dan
I believe Hendo will pull this one out because Franklin’s Ace is his striking…..against a guy who has never been knocked out. Hard to beat that.
I hate it but I think griffin by sub 5th rd
I love it so Big Nog by tko 4th rd
I’m shook about Ram/wandy I want to say Rampage by tko 3rd rd buuuut wandy is a beast and has had Rampage’s # and Rampage didn’t look good at all versus forest!!
I hate it but hendo will ko franklin in the 3rd!
But at the least we will see some of the best fights the ufc has put out!!!
Mir: UD
I think Mir will stay on his feet and pick away at Nog.
Evans: TKO (hate to say it)
To Quote Rob “I THINK THE ODDS MAKERS HAVE IT RIGHT EXCEPT FOR MAYBE EVANS GRIFFIN WHICH I WOULD SAY IS EVEN MONEY”
Silva V Jackson: I HAVE NO IDEA
Won’t go past 2 minutes into second round someone’s getting TKOed. If I have to pick… Silva by TKO
Henderson: UD
UD or late 3rd Round TKO
Nogueira by TKO (round 4)
Griffin by TKO (round 4 or 5)
Wanderlei or Rampage by Knockout (round 2)
Henderson by TKO (round 3)
I think that Wanderlei vs Rampage is gonna be the best fight out of all of these.If not that one then for sure Hendersn vs Franklin.Griffin vs Evens will be a good fight too.Griffin vs Evens and Nogueira vs Mir will be a little slow but both will have good endings.Can’t wait to see what happens.
I don’t see Franklin having a chance against hendo.. just becuase the guy is a brickhead.. you cannot know that dude out. Rampage was LAYING into him and he no go sleepy
That being said.. Franklin could easily knock him out
nog tko rnd 1
sugar by tko rnd 3
wandi tko rnd 2
henderson by split
i’d go w. those winners,
esp nog.
good match ups.
wandy seems to have quintons #,
but this is in a cage and its been a while.
sugar and forest hmmm.
rashad can KO people but forest is hard to wear down
Okay, okay…since everyone’s giving their 2 cents, my turn:
Griffin/Evans - Griffin by Submission, Rd. 3
Nog/Mir - Noguiera by TKO, Rd 3
Jackson/Silva - Silva by TKO, Rd 2
Um, I just looked up the fight card and Franklin/Henderson are fighting UFC 93 in Dublin, Ireland. So I won’t pick that fight at this time
well I see it this way:
Nog-tko 4
griffen-UD
rampage-tko 2
franklin-UD- for as much as I like Hendo,i think franklin better striker,he’s a smart fighter so I expect tht him to mix his strike/kicks in & out & avoid hendos power-hendo will go wild & Rich will capitalize-People must hv 4got tht other than A.Silva no 1 else has really handled him,& his body frame fits the 205,better than Hendo-Yes even though Hendo held both belts in pride-i wished he stays at 185-good potential fights till they meet up w the Spider
Ladies and gentlemen your new, light, heavyweight champion of the woooooorld! “Sugar”, Rashad Evans!
I don’t care how he does it, just get it done. Actually, i’d like to see it end how he ended the Ice Man, but Forrest does have a better chin than Chuck.
Sorry guys, I just can’t respect a champ that got tko’d by Keith Jardine lol!
Griffin vs Evans - I can see Griffin by sub or decision, but I’m hoping Evans lands that big over hand right again just 1 more time.
Mir vs Big Nog - I see the fight like this, If its a decision Big Nog takes it 48-47 Mir wins first 2 runs out of gas and Nog last 3. If Mir is to win he subs Nog in the first/ Nog on the other hand can wait for Mir’s gas tank to run low and catch him.
Jackson vs Wanderlei - 1 fight I’m not putting money on, If this was the Pride days you’d be laughing at a third match , easy Wanderlei by KO/ but sadly not. Jacksons hands and chin have been really good in the UFC. Wanderlei is showing signs of the old axe murder. This is a tuff 1. So Jackson by GNP{TKO} or Wanderlei by Wild shots which lands on the button {KO}. I’m going to give the edge to Wanderlei because he’s the one with loads of confidence coming into this match.
nog tko rd1
forrest ud
rampage ko rd1
franklin ud
Nog will sub Mir in the 3rd as Mir will likely be gassed by then.
Griffin G&P Evans in the 2nd Griffin is too big for Evans and is the smartest fighter out there and maybe the greatest all rounder in MMA.
Silva Ko’s Jackson yet again in 1st.
And Hendo G&P Franklin early in round 2 then moves on to kill Silva
Can someone explain how the odds work? I googled it but I didnt understand the explanation.
For example, what does it mean:
Nog -350
Mir +225
Ok wow…I missed the link at the bottom. That cleared it up for me.
/lame off
i really think greg jackson’s gameplans are gonna make a big difference in this fight…i think rashad is gonna beat forrest by coming out fast and hard….forrset hasnt really fought guys who are faster than him usually hes that guy so itll be good to see how he handles it and i just think rashad’s wrestling and sub defense is to good to get sub’d by forrest ……rashad definitly by tko
Maybe I should have Greg Jackson gameplan my next date:
Alright, come out fast and hard…
Uhhh… Did I say that out loud?
Haha,, nice bsbiz
Greg Jackson is indeed the king of the gameplan. Did anyone else catch his “Beer and strippers” training program from one of the undercard fighters interviews awhile back? Priceless.
rampage will defo win now, he’s got ricky “hitman” hatton strenth trainer, rampage has been in the paper over here saying his strikeing is expected to get stronger by 20 30%, the trainer said rampage reminds him of a 6ft 3 205 pound ricky hatton haha so silva guna be in for a long night.
Because a strenght trainer will be able to keep him from getting ko’d again? No doubt this will be a tough fight but that pic of Page hanging out of the ropes reminds me that Wanderlei know what has taken to ko Quinton violently
There’s good value on Mir for a small wager, if indeed he is the old Mir again it’s worth a look.
Griffen has choked out one guy, and now he’s a submission guy funny. If he stands and trades wih Sugar his fait will be that of the Iceman.
Wandi/Rampage Pick em fight
MIr Submission
