Ubereem dominates just like Cain did. I also think Nate Diaz wins

I'm thinking this could very well happen.

I think so too, but when Mir was asked he took Lesner. Mir is usually spot on.

This main event is killing me.

Overeem looked BAD against werdum and hasn't faced great competition since moving to HW.

Lesnar is coming off major surgery and cannot take a punch.

JMO as a casual MMA fan - Overeem is a more skilled and experienced fighter and will dominate Lesnar

I hope it is a fight worth watching, if it doesn't end spectacularly and early then seems like it could turn into two guys gasping for air by round 3

i hate to see him and condit fight. i think he will slaughter Carlos though.

i just hope the winner pwns GSP

When the f is ma boi Florian getting back in da cage? He should fight the loser of Nate/Cowboy then the loser of Pettis/Lauzon.

He didnt look bad, he looked smart. Werdum is an elite BJJ player (especially since Werdum already sub'd him). Had Overeem been reckless and bum rushed him, he would've been taken down and submitted. The fear of the takedown effected Overeems ability to open up his striking. AO is actually a solid grappler, but Compared to Werdum, he is elementary. He matches up much better with Brock.

Not only has Overeem looked unstoppable in MMA, he's been just as impressive in k-1.

The Brock nerd in me wants to see him beat the horse steroids out of Overeem.

edit: This is not my actual prediction, 50-50 slightly leaning towards Brock, won't be surprised by anything... all 90 seconds of this fight will rule tho..

edit 2: Oh and Cerrone is pissed at Nate bc he called him the n word & didn't want to shake his hand.. in Stockton, thats called a Thursday afternoon.. anyway that fight will have what they call in pro rassling THE HEAT.

If you are that indecisive, why would you feel the need to voice your lack of an opinion?
