Fight predictions… feel free to reply with yours…

*Matt Serra wins over GSP by rear naked choke in rd. 1
Matt Serra is THE most under-rated fighter in the UFC. Serra was well on his way to a title shot when he ran into Shonie Carter’s “Hail Mary” spinning back fist. A couple tough fights following against top competition Din Thomas, BJ & Parisian derailed his momentum. The appearance on TUF reingigorated his career, and he is not going to let GSP take it all away now
*Travis Lutter over Franklin by submission
Franklin has nothing to answer Lutter’s ground game and will suffer a humiliating defeat here.
*Quarry by TKO over Starnes
All Quarry has to do is punch him in the gut…he’ll quit.
Never seen such a display of cowardice in MMA. As soon as the fight is not going his way, look for Starnes to find a way to quit.
*Bisbing over McCarthy. TKO
Bisbing is over-rated, but as long as the UFC is intent on making inroads into the UK market, they need British content.
That’s why they’ve givin him this walk in the park.
*Danzig (close)decision over Bocek
Danzig will have his hands full with Bocek. This could be the highlight fight of the night.
*Sam Stout WILL beat the snot out of Rich Clementi KO.
No doubt Rich has the advantage on the ground, however Sam has a great sprawl and can defend well against the take down. Sam has fought WAY tougher guys than Clementi. I like Clementi, but he’s in way over his head in this contest.
*Belcher by stoppage over Day.
Day gets this fight after his win over an uninspired David Loiseau. He won’t have that kind of luck here. Belcher will show up.
*McDonald over Doerkson AGAIN!!!
*Herman vs Maia
This could be an upset. Maia is unbeaten and could present a real challange to Herman. I’m picking Maia.
*Goulet’s a stiff, but they’ve givin him another stiff to fight. Look for him to eat a big shot and wake up with a crowd around him

If you are into betting, put some money on Jason “Dooms” Day. He’s not so bad and he’s got some momentum. He could take it.

but u pay $40 to watch Jacob “tito” Ortiz fight?[/quote]
its gonna be a better card,cmon even you should know that or …maybe you dont.

GSP vs. Serra is clearly worthy and neccassary to clear up the mess Dana made at welterweight by having the TUF show hold up the title for so long and then giving away a interim title for no apparent reason, like GSP really needed 5 rounds to whoop on Hughes! lol not even close!

You are right! It all starts with the lackluster main event, I mean Franklin vs. Lutter isn’t all that appealing to me.

Bisping vs. Tuppaware, does anyone really care? Should have been Bisping vs. Belcher!

Danzig should be fighting Stout instead of Bocek. Danzig has tons of experience and I think he could beat any lightweight on the card, so why have him face the worst (Bocek)?

kalib vs. Quarry will be a good match, but a fight like that belongs on a UFN event not on a main card of a pay per view.

This event started with a lot of hype, but as time went by the card got worse and worse. Then again the way the UFC thinks, just g ive em GSP and it will sell out, so I am not surprised that this card isnt up to par with the recent cards! Its no secret that the best fight cards are reserved for USA events, mainly Vegas and Ohio, definetly not Jersey.

The tri state area is in the Canada category in the UFC’s eyes.[/quote]

It may not be a great looking card on paper but it should still provide some entertaining matchups. I’m looking forward to it since I’m going and this will be my first ever UFC event…so I’m excited to see the whole card.

It’s always the card you least expect to be decent that turns out to be great with the exception of 78.
