1. Been a good card so far.
Kampmann fought a foolish game plan.

3. yes probably should have went a few more shots
Been a weird night for that, Trigg probably could have taken a few more too. I guess you have to be safe. I didn't really make any picks officially, I think the people who I felt would win have been winning outside of Kampmann. I wanted Escudero to win, but I really didn't think he'd beat Cole, pretty impressive. I also think just on general principle Hermes Franca deserved a beating for his hairdo, lol.

5. I hope not
I love Cro Cop. I want to see a top notch Cro Cop fight against some of these other UFC heavies so we can see some great fights. Junior has been looking pretty diesel lately though, and CC has the suspect chin going for him.

6. Yep.
Dos Santos hasn't really done much...yet. I mean a KO against against Werdum is good, but it doesn't tell us much about his overall game. However, we do know he's fast (for a hw), with KO power and, yea, CC has been on the decline. I hope to hell CC pulls this off, and although I "picked" him, I think Dos Santos wins by 1st rnd ko/tko.

Prove me wrong Mirko!

7. it's almost been like Mirko
forgets to check his left leg into baggage when he comes over to the U.S., I hate that people over here haven't seen him at his best.

20. I have been a huge Vitor fan since day one
He looks better than ever. He nearly killed Lindland, walked through Rich, the guy is a force again.

So do you do this for every UFC then? I hate watching streams and having them go out, if you do it, it'd probably save me from kicking in my wall one of these days, lol.

21. not always
but pretty much, yea. the stream is mostly solid. i mean it might freeze for a second, but if it doesn't correct itself you just press stop and then play--it should fire right back up.

hell yea dude. I think anderson would pick him apart, but vitor has the ko power to beat anderson--and that's a big step! lol
