S+C MMA Prediction League - 2010 (Part 2)

POTN - Edgar decision: ssdd and toonie

Could have been Lentz for potn. Same number (2) as the Edgar decision, Oblivian can overrule if necc. Till then, sod Nick Lentz and his dry humping antics.
 
We'll go with the Edgar decision as that was a much tougher pick according to the odds.
 
Stonebreaker 5-5

I knew I should have quit picking after the first event of this season and retired with that 10-1 record.

I keep saying that [Nate] Diaz' wild ways are going to catch up with him, but so far, none of his opponents have been the one to prove me right. Maybe next time.

Maybe I'll go to my grave saying that without it ever happening. Who knows?

Quote dated 04/03/2008. Apparently I not only have a chronic inability to believe in Nate Diaz' ability, but also a total failure to learn. I think that the lesson I need to sink in here is that unless he's fighting a title-contender, Nate Diaz is going to win.

As for the rest of my 50/50 coin-flip results: meh about the undercard upsets. God-damn-wow over Edgar's matador act over Penn, but he's going to need something seriously surprising to keep Maynard from just planting him and sitting on him for 25 minutes. Oh, and I'd be a lot happier with Gray Maynard's pre-fight, "I'm going to knock him out" talk IF HE'D EVER KNOCKED ANYONE OUT IN THE UFC OTHER THAN "WHO THE HELL IS" JOE VERES AND HIMSELF.

I am very much not looking forward to Edgar/Maynard II for the UFC LW title.
 
IMO, I would not bet against either Diaz unless they are fighting a strong wrestler with good sub defense.
 
Good job ssdd. Has anyone ever gotten every pick correct on a UFC card? I know BrassBalls was 6-0 on the last WEC card but that was only main card picks. 12-0 is pretty impressive.
 
I'm gonna be away for the next Fight Night so here's my picks in advance:

UFC Fight Night: Marquardt vs. Palhares - September 15, 2010

Main card
Nate Marquardt vs. Rousimar Palhares (TKO, Submission, Decision)
Efrain Escudero vs. Charles Oliveira
Jim Miller vs. Gleison Tibau
Ross Pearson vs. Cole Miller

Preliminary card
Jared Hamman vs. Kyle Kingsbury
Tomasz Drwal vs. Dave Branch
Rich Attonito vs. Rafael Natal
Anthony Waldburger vs. David Mitchell
Brian Foster vs. Forrest Petz

If anything changes on the main card my pick will be whoever ends up on the left side. If it's a prelim fight I just won't have a pick for it.
 
Alrite gentlemen here are my extra early picks:

If I get bored later, I may actually look up some of these guys & try to make some intelligent picks instead of just going off of whether or not I think their name sounds familiar
