Default Predictions

My UFC 101 predictions:

Josh Neer by Split Decision

Kendall Grove by Unanimous Decision

Amir Sadollah by Submission

Forrest Griffin by Split Decision (Silva is due for a loss, and Forrest may just be the guy to do it, IMO)

Kenny Florian by TKO (cuts)

I am probably wrong, but what the hell, right?

I'm starting to wonder how good Silva is. He was taunting Forest BAD. And he responded with nothing but an open chin.

Haven't seen it yet (we were at the track), but I heard it was a pretty boring card all around. I will watch it after work today.

I did see the weigh ins, and Silva looked a little soft. No matter I guess, my buddy told me Forrest never landed a punch all fight?

I think Silva is 'that good'. Didn't he dislocate Forrest's jaw in one of his first punches ? Forrest had nothing in him after that...couldn't punch for chit and Silva knew it and was able to toy with him.

When he did connect it caused Forrest tremendous pain and then the last punch was lights out.

I think the fight is still here...

The conspiracy theory sounds kind of week. Anderson Silva is just that good. Forrest is no joke but he has only been training and fighting for right up until being on T.U.F.

Anderson has been training/ fighting pro a lot longer, and that experience shows. Look at his buddy Lyoto. Guys that have been training in tradition martials or competing longer tend to have the better basic skills of combat.

Anderson is in a whole other league skillwise compared to forrest. he was knocked down after that last jab but he wasn't knocked out. i'm sure he knew he didn't have the weapons to keep fighting the spider.
