A lot of people are putting Shields down.. Saying he's going to get dominated by GSP's jabs/stand up. I think if it goes to the ground, Shield has a high chance of winning, and Jake's grappling is pretty damn good. It should be a interesting fight for GSP. I'm rooting for Shield's, I want to see GSP fall in front of 55,000 Canadian fans. Plus, im tired of watching GSP dominating the WW division... Go Jake Shield! show your american jiu jitsu!

The Aldo & Hominick should be an exciting fight. I dont really know much about the WEC fighters yet, but im really excited about Aldo.

Also really excited to see the Dragon back! Rooting for Machida. Dont think Randy could pull this off. Machida is too careful, he'll stay his distance and will tag Randy somewhere in the round. Idk, but i want Machida to win and possibly go for a run on the belt.

Ben Henderson, cool guy. I want him to win. Nate Diaz! Yes, i will be rooting for him. Love his performance every time he steps inside the octagon.

Georges St. Pierre vs. Jake Shields anyone with half a brainstem gotta have jake as the underdog in this one. on the feet, jake has nothing to offer. his best chance is to get it to the ground & work for a sub. i think jake is the better jj guy, but i think gsp is the better mma fighter. i think gsp uses wrestling to fight dangerous strikers and i think he will use his stand up to fight jake. he's gonna secure a couple of take downs but will use his speed, athleticism and superior striking to keep jake at bay and keep the fight standing. i say gsp by ud, but if jake gets top control, he can very well pull off a sub


Jose Aldo vs. Mark Hominick Gotta go with Jose Aldo by tko, I don't see this fight going 5, but Hominick is a dangerous fighter, this could either be a tough fight for Aldo or a finish for Aldo within 2 rounds.


Jason Brilz vs. Vladimir Matyushenko I got brilz by dec


Randy Couture vs. Lyoto Machida i like randy, but i gotta go with machida on this one, faster, younger, better cardio at this piont and i don't think randy will be able to utilize his wrestling and dirty boxing. machida by dec


Mark Bocek vs. Ben Henderson i think bocek will be a tough fight, but i will go with ben by tko


Nate Diaz vs. Rory MacDonald rory is a tough kid, but lack the experience on a big show as shown in his debut, which i think should not have been against condit. so i say nate will get the sub


Jake Ellenberger vs. Sean Pierson jake by tko or decision


Claude Patrick vs. Daniel Roberts


Ivan Menjivar vs. Charlie Valencia


Jason MacDonald vs. Ryan Jensen good to see macdonald back, this is a bad matchup for jensen, macdonald by sub


John Makdessi vs. Kyle Watson


Pablo Garza vs. Yves Jabouin

man, i wanna see this fight, and i wanna see the pacquiao fight, i only want to get one, i may end up going with pacquiao

I want to see GSP win but I think it will be a good match up. I have a feeling this fight will be on the ground the whole time. Sheilds is just such a boring fighter to watch about 99% grappling. I hope GSP makes him stand an bang but GSP stength is with his wrestling take downs an ground&pound. I dont think this will a exciting fish but I will watch

Georges St. Pierre vs. Jake Shields - GSP. This is one of those where you start to over-think it, and since GSP is a big favorite you start to let the thought creep in that Jake might pull this out. I'm not gonna let that happen to me in this fight. GSP is far superior in striking, and on the ground I'd call it a wash at best. I know Jake is very skilled on the ground, but nobody controls the mat like GSP with a mix of wrestling and JJ. GSP will win this, and will look good doing it.


Jose Aldo vs. Mark Hominick - Really looking forward to Aldo in the UFC. This could be a close fight, but I'm going with Aldo to show up on the big stage.


Jason Brilz vs. Vladimir Matyushenko - Brilz over-performed once, and I think he got rewarded for it. The Janitor is tough, but just doesn't have much to offer right now.


Randy Couture vs. Lyoto Machida - I think Machida could really pick Randy apart in this one. We know Randy is going to try and close the distance, but his striking is average, and so is his speed. Lyoto is also very good at evading takedowns, and getting to his feet quick after a takedown. I like Lyoto to tag Randy on the way in for a takedown, and put him out.


Mark Bocek vs. Ben Henderson - Henderson.


Nate Diaz vs. Rory MacDonald - Nate, I guess.


Jake Ellenberger vs. Sean Pierson - Ellenberger is one of the guys I really think is at a point where he can take the next step and be potentially great. He has had some setbacks, but I think he has real good ability, and has a shot to be very good. Looking for a decisive win for Jake.

GSP all the way
He is too good and just imagine him loosing on home turf. He will be pumped up and come out like gangbusters.
