August 7th-- I know its early but who you got?

[Wanderlai]

I take:

Silva, even though I think Sonnen can take him down. Silva has very good BJJ.

Alves, Fitch may win if it goes 3 rds. I just don't like Fitch, reminds me of Matt Lindland

Guida, out points Dos Anjos with the judges

Almeida, I think he catches Hughes in an armbar

Dos Santos, KO in 2nd. Nelson can fight though given he is pregnant.

Anyone who watches UFC will pick Silva while really wanting Sonner to win. Oh and when is Dos Santos gonna fight someone worth a crap. Mir? Cro Cop? hell Congo? He should easily win this fight if he is as good as people are saying.

i've followed MMA since 2000, before it reached the masses. i have no idea who sonnen is.

silva been odder, flakey the last couple fights. granted his still p4p daddy, but where is his head? heard a few times already talk of retirement...

picking one MMA fight is like picking 3 for 3 in NFL games.

amazing the sh!t white is calling pay per view. that you sopcast!!

I have been watching since 98 and some UFCs have gotten better some worse. Its really more of a sport now then back in the day. Also use to watch Pride Fights.

i remember first seeing ken shamrock in one of the first UFC fights I ever saw. It was on VHS tape. I was shocked and awed. Most violence I had ever seen at about 9 years old. Parents didn't know I was watching.

where does this come from?

even though Silva has started to piss people off with his antics, Sonnen is almost universally hated.

the guy told Silva and his trainers to dance around and pray whatever 'demon effigy' Brazilians worship. he's a lunatic and practically everyone wants to see him be destroyed.

When you say practically you mean YOU right.... IMO Silva needs to be taken down a few notches and Im sure some people will agree with me. Now is there someone that can do that.... It has yet to be seen.

August 7th-- I know its early but who you got?

Silva (fight will end in the first round since Dana is all over Silva about finishing)

To many question marks on Alves to predict, this is his first fight since UFC 100.

Guida (Fight of the night)

Hughes

Dos Santos

you showed in the last MMA thread that you don't know what you're talking about.

there are 22,500 google results for "Chael Sonnen sucks." he is one of the most hated people in MMA. way more than Silva.

old school vhs!

the pay-per cards suck, plain and simple. ufc original 100 card, was worth the price(before injuries). but now its one title/good fight and bunch of hyped with mehs and ehs. around 50s-80s. mma is still in the gold age.

pride was beyond awesome due to steroids. a roided axe murder was a BA monster. k randleman and other hammer house roiders, guy, thee gracie hunter, d frye!!!!!!
