Post by: GraniteCityDon on February 04, 2012, 10:41:48 AM: Ed Herman vs. Clifford Starks - tough choice for me, could go either way but im picking a split decision

Renan Barao vs. Scott Jorgensen - Scott's durable but im going for 2nd round submission

Josh Koscheck vs. Mike Pierce - again Mike is very durable but IF Kos is focused its a 2nd round TKO

Roy Nelson vs. Fabricio Werdum - tempted to go for 2nd round KO for Nelson, but thinking Werdum by 3rd round submission

Carlos Condit vs. Nick Diaz - 2nd round TKO, bring on GSP

Sure Condit won this going by this scoring system they have come up with to judge fights, but if Diaz hadn't of stalked and chased Condit most of the time nothing would of happened at all, because Carlos sure as fuck didn't want to engage with Diaz. Props to Greg Jackson for finding a loophole in the scoring system and exploiting it.

Condit vs GSP fight of the year! ::)

Throwing blind spinning counter elbows and missing 10 of them is not counter punching.

Very true, but Machida never threw a dozen MISSED spinning elbows with his eyes closed. Lyoto is actually a talented striker, but did get alot of heat.

But his punches and kicks are meaningful and effective unlike Condits in the Diaz fight
