Jon Jones vs. Vladimir Matyushenko
Bones via tko in the 2nd. They've done a good job of not rushing on building him and throwing him in with the wolves too early. If this is a decisive win, hope he gets in the mix with the top 5 gunning for the 205 title. Bones vs rampage/machida winner would be awesome


Mark Munoz Vs. Yushin Okami
I like both guys, but I've been an Okami fan longer. Munoz still needs to be tested and this will be a great test for him. I got Okami via UD


John Howard Vs. Jake Ellenberger



Tyson Griffin Vs. Takanori Gomi
I don't see how Gomi is going to win this one. I'll always be a Gomi fan, but I'm afraid he will never be a UFC champ. A couple more losses and I wouldn't be surprized if he gets let go. I got Tyson via UD, or 2nd rd sub :cry:

Jon Jones vs. Vladimir Matyushenko - I'm taking Jones, but I'm a little nervous about it. Matyushenko is a perfect matchup to go against what Jones brings, and he is a tough dude. I think Jones will win, but if Matyushenko can get his hands on him, it could be tough for Jones.


Mark Munoz Vs. Yushin Okami - Another shaky one. I like both of these guys, and I think this could be a really cool fight. I would guess that if Munoz can win, it will have to be early, if it goes past the first round, I like my chances with Okami. I'm taking Yushin, by decision.



John Howard Vs. Jake Ellenberger - Ellenberger is one of the guys I really like to watch, and if he can learn some patience, I think can be an elite level fighter. Howard is tough, and has KO power, but I think Jake should be able to handle him, I think it could be by an early TKO.



Tyson Griffin Vs. Takanori Gomi - I hope Gomi can get himself together to put on a good fight, but I don't know if he can, and I really don't think Griffin is a guy I'd like to be fighting while trying to "right the ship", I got Griffin, by a lop-sided decision.



DaMarques Johnson Vs. Matthew Riddle - I still hold out some hope for Johnson, so I'd like to see him get a win.



James Irvin Vs. Igor Pokrajac - This one could get ugly, fast. I like Pokrajac, but I'm guessing this will be over fast, and it's pretty much a toss up as to who is KO'd.

I think Jon Jones is going to destroy him (like he has everyone else). He has been in the ring with better grapplers and had 0 problems aside from that dq. He just beats them before they can even try to enforce their will.

I think Munoz takes it. Has potential to be a great fight, but we'll see.

Ellenberger - agreed.

I'm still pullin for the fireball kid :( I miss the older Pride days where I would buy a ppv on Sunday night so I could watch some of those guys. Gomi was always fun to watch. He's lost that fire (no pun intended) over the last few years, but I always hope that he can be impressive again. Griffin is coming off a decision loss (iirc) and will be a difficult opponent. I should be picking Griffin, but still gonna go with Gomi.

Same, but I have little interest in this fight, tbh.

Another coin toss.
 
The Gomi win was pretty epic. I'm just hoping it continues with an impressive Okami win.
