Tito Ortiz vs. Forrest Griffin - I like Forrest in this fight, although, a part of me thinks that this fight could go down exactly like the first fight. All I know is that I have seen Forrest improve since that fight, and I'm not sure I have seen Tito improve, mostly because we havent seen him fight at all. I expect Tito to still be able to fight, and fight well, but Forrest has learned to use his length really well, especially his kicks, and I think he should be able to get a decision here.
Josh Koscheck vs. Anthony Johnson - Johnson is coming off a big KO win, and he is in great shape (- not making weight), but I think Kos is just a better fighter. I think Johnson will come out fast, and unless he can drop Kos, I think he will make a mistake, and Kos will KO him, or at least take him down and punish him. TKO win for Kos.
Amir Sadollah vs. Phil Baroni - While I wasn't really angry with the stoppage in Amir's last fight, I will agree it was a little premature. I did see in that fight though, that Amir looks to be very dedicated to the sport, and I really like his approach. I don't know what to expect from Baroni, but I'm thinking not much. Amir should win this, and pretty easily.
Luiz Cane vs. Antonio Rogerio Nogueira - I like Cane here, but I am excited to see Lil Nog in the UFC.
Karo Parisyan vs. Dustin Hazelett - I don't hide that Karo is pretty much at the top of my "who's your fighter" list, so there's no sense in me trying to be objective about this fight. I could find some wat to stretch this out and make it look like I am really making a case for him to win, but it makes just as much sense for me to go, GO KARO!!!!
Ben Saunders vs. Marcus Davis - I think this could be the fight of the night. I think Davis will win, but I also believe that Saunders has the tools to be a pretty good fighter. This is probably just a gatekeeper battle, but there's nothing wrong with that.
Kendall Grove vs. Jake Rosholt - Rosholt is coming off a nice win, and a somewhat unexpected one. I always like Grove's reach, but for some reason I think Rosholt won't give him the opportunity to use it. I think Rosholt will just shoot in and get a take down, and hold him there. He could only do it for one round and get a TKO, or he could do it for three, and this will be a snorefest. Either way, I like Rosholt.
