UFC 100 prediction


A milestone in MMA. This event is stacked and no body that is even a avid fan should miss these upcoming fights! So here are my predictions on the main card and quick picks for the undercard.

Brock Lesnar Vs. Frank Mir
Lesnar is going to win this fight as he showed in the first fight he can take the fight to the ground. If the fight goes to the ground expect Lesnar to do his masterbation hammer fists on Mir's face. I know what your saying Mir's going to submit him again if he goes to the ground as Mir has more knowledge on the ground. But if you watched the Herring fight, Lesnar has more patience and is more wise now to rush things thats why he didn't go for the KO finish. Instead he went for the decision. I do belive this will be a exciting 3 round fight and if Lesnar does not get a TKO by then it will be Lesnar do lay and pray in the 4th and 5th round for a decision. Lets be honest if someone as big as lesnar can take you down and just lay on you. you cant do anything hes just to huge.

Georges St-Pierre Vs. Thiago Alves

GSP will just sneak away with a fight here. Stand up Alves is better. The thing GSp usaully has in his fights is physical power, but in this fight Alves will be the bigger fighter and im assuming the stronger fighter. The fight really comes down to the wrestling. If GSP can take Alves down he will win the fight in the decision. If Alves can shrug off the take downs. Alves will run through GSP. GSP for some reason performs his best when his opponent has amazing attributes in those areas, so thats why I predicit GSP will win. IF your making a online bet this is the underdog fight you would want to bet on as Alves has a legitimate chance to win thsi fight. Don't be surprised if you see GSP Koed.

Jon Fitch Vs. Paulo Thiago
Jon Fitch will win this fight. Thiago got lucky against Koscheck and got in a lucky punch against Koscheck who was head hunting only tring to show off his boxing skills and earn KO of the night not even utilizing his wrestling backround. Jon Fitch is a friggin machine if you seen his fights and even his fight against GSP he showed his heart even though he was getting decimated. Call me a nut hugger but I don't see any way Fitch can lose this.

Dan Henderson Vs. Michael Bisping
Henderson is going to win this fight. Because of these reasons
1. He has more experince against higher level opponenets.
2. He can take a punch(never been Koed) and he can throw a hell of a knock out punch.
3.his wrestling is outstanding.

Bisping is someone that the UK fans can cheer for and he became a star that way. He is not on par to Henderson. The only way he can win the fight is to keep the fight standing, which I find really hard to see as Matt hamil could take down Bisping and Henderson is a much better wrestler then Hamil. Theres no way Bisping can win this fight.

Yoshihiro Akiyama Vs. Alan Belcher
Akiyama is going to win this fight. He has more experience and by far has more tools to use in the cage. Alan who is the welcoming commity for all the new UFC entrants got lucky against Denis Kang. Kang killed Belcher everywhere but then got caught in a submission. Kang is in my top 10 in middleweights and Akiyama is also in my top 10. I can't see another lucky win that Belcher can pull out. Expect to see Akiyama show off his skills in this fight.

undercard quick picks
Mark Coleman Vs. Stephan Bonnar
Mac Danzig Vs. Jim Miller
Jon Jones Vs. Jake O'Brien
Dong Hyun Kim Vs. TJ Grant
CB Dollaway Vs. Tom Lawlor
Matt Grice Vs. Shannon Gugerty
