Leban- You can't stop the Cat Smasher

Vera- Jardine is unorthodox and effective but I think an in shape Vera will have the skills to win here

Cane- Sokoudjou is a great fighter with lots of promise but I think Cane is the coming thing. After this fight some of you may agree with me.

Lytle- Taylor is a tough fighter but Lytle is better all around imho. That and he has the heart of a lion.

Davis- Kelly like Taylor is tough but Davis thrives in the UK.

Gono- He'll win!! period

Carwin- exp will prevail

Liaudin- Bielkheden is an untapped force but Jess is a friend of mine and is really dedicated to winning here.

Stout- gut feeling. He has balls for days

Miller- based on his bland name.

For the UFC Fans out there, UFC 89 will be FREE on Spike! tomorrow at 9pm. Who are your picks for tomorrow night?

Chris Leben VS Michael Bisping - Not a big fan of Bisping. He's looked good so far at 85 but, I think Leben has matured a lot. I think we'll see a much better fighter in Chris. Bisping doesn't have the power to KO him BUT, it could go either way. Bisping by Dec. or Leben by KO/TKO. I'm rooting for Leben.

Brandon Vera VS Keith Jardine - I've got Vera in this one. His last few performances have been lackluster but, I really think he's gonna bring it this time with more crisp striking.

Luiz Cane VS Sokoudjou - I'm becoming a fan of Luiz Cane. Very nice striking, I like his style. Sokoudjou has a lot of power so you never know what could happen. Someone's getting KO/TKO'd but, I'll go with Cane.

Chris Lytle VS Paul Taylor - I've got Chris in this fight. Taylor is tough and has an exciting style but Lytle's experience will overcome. I think Lytle will sub him.

Marcus Davis VS Paul Kelly - I've got Marcus Davis in this. Paul is tough as hell though and he could get the upset. I'm still going with Davis by KO/TKO maybe even a submission.

Akihiro Gono VS Dan Hardy - Gotta go with Gono over Hardy for this one. Gono's expereince should win him the fight.

Neil Wain VS Shane Carwin - Don't know much about Neil so I'm going with Shane. Dude is powerful!

David Bielkheden VS Jess Liaudin - I'm going with David on this one although I'm kinda back and forth on it.

Sam Stout VS Terry Etim - I'm a fan of stout. After the Florian fight he's shown tons of improvement and, the kid is entertaining to watch. Etim has that long ass reach though; we'll see what happens. I got stout.

Jim Miller VS David Baron - Don't know anything about these guys so I'll go out on a limb and choose David.

Per Eklund VS Samy Schiavo - I'm going with Samy on this one. Why? I dunno, lol
