MMAmania.com senior writer, Jesse Holland, was recently back ranting on the radio, speaking with Ariel Helwani of MMARated.com to discuss UFC 83: “Serra vs. St. Pierre 2.”

Here are the highlights:
- Can Serra pull off the upset again?
- Will GSP get too nervous in front of the Montreal crowd?
- Did Matt Serra cross the line with all his comments leading up to the fight?
- What to expect from Franklin vs. Lutter?
- How easily, if so, will Michael Bisping defeat Charles McCarthy?
- Why has McCarthy been so confrontational?
- Is this do-or-die for Kalib Starnes?
- Is Nate Quarry full healthy?
- How good can Cain Velazquez be?

we can expect almost the same type of fight between lutter and franklin as it was between franklin and jason mcdonald.
Let me get paid Serra…Lets GOOOO!
Serra wins via TKO. Awe yeah!
Yeah, Serra wins via TKO over some dude outside UFC, in a couple of months. First he will be schooled by GSP tomorrow, then by M. Hughes in a couple of months and we’ll finally see Serra out for good.
wats next for gsp if serra tko’s him again? any thoughts?
155 or 185?
155??? thats a really intelligent take. I’m almost 100% sure he can’t make that weight, and for what? to get dominated by BJ?? might as well wait for BJ to come to you (to beat you) than go to him!!!
i wouldnt be suprised if serras entrance music is f*ck canada from the southpark movie lol
Take the over 1.5 rounds for Serra\GSP…all day
ay i could get used to mania radio. thats some cutthroat analysis. slipped in a good 1 about : jas mac aka tuff killa identity crisis.. LOL

OK, I will. Jesse, you’re so dumb when you sit around the house you really sit around the house. You’re so ugly it takes you an hour and a half to watch 60 Minutes. I kid, I kid. Enjoyed the discussion.
I like the fact that there’s a good mix on the site. Some for Serra, some GSP.. Most of us speaking inteligently too. Good job guys, can’t wait to hear the crowd when GSP is laying on his back out cold!!
McCarthy is going to sub Bisping in round 2….
i just watched the weigh ins that was nuts if gsp doesnt win there will be some serious problems after the show .serra got the most boos i ever heard and thats just at the weighins
Jesse,
McDonald never called himself the TUF Killer. People gave him that name. However, he seems to like it.
BTW I think you need to learn the correct pronunciations of fighters names. However, I agree with you picks but I give Goulet more of a change then you think.
I need to learn how to use an apostrophe “fighter’s names”
isnt in “blame canada”
is it. its been such along time since i seen it oh well
Nice one Jesse. Very well done.
Serra is a loud mouth, the guy won the king of the loser’s show and got a title shot that at least 3 other fighters should have got. This fight is over fast, GSP is going to KNOCK OUT Serra in the first 3 minutes and bring that gold back to CANADA!!!
Did you copy and paste that from a thread before their first fight?
