Shane Carwin vs Junior Dos Santos
Kenny Florian vs Diego Nunes Jon Olav Einemo vs Dave Herman Demian Maia vs Mark Munoz Donald Cerrone vs Vagner Rocha Chris Weidman vs Jesse Bongfeldt Yves Edwards vs Sam Stout Dustin Poirier vs Jason Young Nick Ring vs James Head Darren Elkins vs Michihiro Omigawa Krzysztof Soszynski vs Mike Massenzio Aaron Rosa vs Joey Beltran Some of these bouts are between guys I know little about, but here's who I pick for the rest: Carwin vs Dos Santos: Carwin will either murder Dos Santos in the first round or be murdered by Dos Santos in the second or third round. Florian Munoz (see Maia's fight against Nate Marquardt) Cerrone. Fucking war Cowboy! Yves Edwards. Sam Stout is too one-dimensional. He's a good striker, but I don't think he has the power to end the fight before Edwards imposes his will. Poirier. Anyone who tools Josh Grispi isn't going to be someone's bitch in his next fight. Soszynski. Too tough for Massenzio, in my opinion. And the Sloth reference in the Dude, where's my car? thread reminded me of the second fighter's comment in the Pros Pick at Sherdog: http://www.sherdog.com/news/articles/1/Pros-Pick-Dos-Santos-vs-Carwin-32970 Kyle Kingsbury wins 1000 internets. |

Round One is Carwin's round. Hope he makes hay. Carwin's a BEAST. That fight is going to be just unreal. If he can connect & finish early. If he can't, he'll gass & get mauled by Dos Santos. Fron what I have heard on Vegas ESPN, Carwin is rumored to have become a vegetarian and greatly increased his cardio as a result of his loss to Lesnar. Most of the "experts" are giving the odds to Carwin. Carwin definitely has the edge on the ground. Dos Santos is a world class striker. I too am going to give Carwin the edge. However, I agree that the longer the fight goes, Dos Santos will have a definite edge. Should be a great fight! |

Vegetarians are stronger and have better cardiovascular stamina than people who eat meat? That is just goofy. There's no way a guy like Carwin can be a real vegatarian. |

I read that the prelims were going to stream live on Youtube. Hadn't heard that, but Spike TV usually shows them, too. Spike only shows 2. UFC on Youtube |

I used to work with Kingsbury, he's an interesting character.
Anyone think it's weird that Carwin is coming in 30lbs lighter because he's got a revamped training style and a nutritionist............................... and he was named as a recipient in a steroid ring that got busted a few months ago? |

Reallllly..... Junior's odds just went up a lot in my book.they're probably damn near the same size, then. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

WTF is with all this hugging starting the third round. Early ufc they came out bum rushing (which was entertaining), now they touch hands (no bum rushing (except brock) now we are hugging  i hate that. wait until after the fight if you want to hug. Agreed. The fans even boo'd. Why waste 10 sec. hugging the guy you are trying to beat? |
