Light Heavyweight Championship bout: Lyoto Machida © vs. Mauricio Rua

Welterweight bout: Josh Koscheck vs. Paul Daley

Lightweight bout: Sam Stout vs. Jeremy Stephens

Heavyweight bout: Kimbo Slice vs. Matt Mitrione

Middleweight bout: Patrick Côté vs. Alan Belcher

 
I'm only looking forward to one fight on this card. My picks are the exact oppisite of yours, with the exception of the kimbo fight I think mitrione wins aswell.

 
I dunno man. I think Shogun got screwed last time out. There was no way it was a unanimous decision. Something needs to be done with the scoring in MMA cuz the boxing scoring just doesn't cut it.

 
I agree sho gun won the last fight. And I agree there needs to be a clear winner in every fight. I just think if Machida is at his best he will beat Rua.

 
I agree with you on Machida. When he's at his best, no one can hit him. It's like he's a ghost or something.

I was reading about Côté's knee. I guess after Anderson Silva blew it apart he had multiple surgeries on it to repair the ACL, MCL annd miniscus. Now he had extra tendons put in just to keep it together. Could be a big weakness.

Not to mention Belcher is no slouch he had a pretty big win against ed herman, in which Belcher looked pretty tough. I think he will give Cote all he wants healthy knee or not.

BTW Jock, I love watching your avatar

 
Looks like everyone made weight. Kimbo isn't very big, could be a problem if Mitrione takes him down.

Mauricio Rua (205) v. Lyoto Machida (205)

Paul Daley (170) v. Josh Koscheck (170)

Kimbo Slice (225) v. Matt Mitrione (253)

Alana Belcher (186) vs. Patrick Cote (184)

Sam Stout (155) vs. Jeremy Stephens (155)

 
I'm back to eat crow over Machida. Sounds like he fought a good fight and still got KTFO. I was a little upset to hear about the Koz/Daley fight. I was a big fan of both fighters but after reading about the fight it sounds pretty boaring. I guess I can respect Koz, he fought his fight (err....wrestled his match.) But when I read this I lost all respect for Daley.

sucker punch

I heard about this from my cousin who was giving me updates via text messages. I was bummed out to hear about Kimbo lossing because Mitrione is a complete tool and was one during the TUF season but maybe this is a reality for Kimbo that he's not gonna cut it in the UFC.

I also heard that the Stephans fight was a really good fight.

Thank you. I also have avatars of Randy Couture dropping Tim Sylva with a roundhouse punch, Shane Carwin knocking out Neil Wain, Andrei Arlovski knocking out Ben Rothwell, and Matt Hamill's nasty knock out on Mark Munoz.

Gotta love Chuck Liddell.....Team Liddell on Wednesday nights

 
Reality check for Kimbo indeed according to fightline .com he was cut from the ufc after his fight, also white held tough on his promise to fire Daley .
