Hilarious." hahaha.. agreed.. in that interview he was doing all the questions for the interviewer.. he was like... "Do i think i'm a better wrestler than Matt Hughes?? Yes. Do i think i have the better stand-up?? Yes. I have a better background, a better family, i've been in more challenging fights, and i'm better looking." no lie.. he actually brought up looks.. hahaha.. after that interview i just couldn't wait for him to get dropped on his head.. ________ my picks are still undecided.. and i really need to jump on them.. but.. soo far.. i have.. GSP [i couldn't decide whether he was gonna TKO Serra.. or UD Serra.. i went w/ TKO.. but i think he's gonna play it safe, smooth, yet aggressive.. stay as far away from the striking as possible.. get the takedowns.. avoid the subs.. do some poundin'.. and i REALLY think he's just gonna wait out the UD.. but.. idk.. i'm pickin' 3rd round TKO..] Franklin [he'll play it safe, avoid the subs, keep up the good striking, and try to avoid the takedowns as best as possible.. but i don't see him finishing for some reason.. i have a UD] Starnes [i couldn't decide until just now..] Bisping [he'll avoid the subs and break mccarthy's spirit] Danzig MacDonald [i always pick "el dirte" when he fights.. and he always loses.. soo.. this time... i gotta go w/ MacDonald.. even though.. i can't stand the guy] Clementi [i know Stout's takedown defense has gotten wayy better.. but.. he's gettin' sub'd regardless] Belcher ["Dooms" Day is pretty good.. i've been really impressed with Belcher in his UFC fights..] Herman [i know Maia is supposed to be the next best prospect and what not.. but.. i think Ed's gonna give him some problems] Goulet Valasquez i've said this plenty of times before.. but, i really mean it this time.. my fantasy card is going to get completely butchered! “when Frank Trigg said he had a better family than Hughes.

hahaha.. agreed..

in that interview he was doing all the questions for the interviewer.. he was like… “Do i think i’m a better wrestler than Matt Hughes?? Yes. Do i think i have the better stand-up?? Yes. I have a better background, a better family, i’ve been in more challenging fights, and i’m better looking.” no lie.. he actually brought up looks.. hahaha.. after that interview i just couldn’t wait for him to get dropped on his head..

my picks are still undecided.. and i really need to jump on them.. but.. soo far.. i have..

GSP [i couldn't decide whether he was gonna TKO Serra.. or UD Serra.. i went w/ TKO.. but i think he's gonna play it safe, smooth, yet aggressive.. stay as far away from the striking as possible.. get the takedowns.. avoid the subs.. do some poundin'.. and i REALLY think he's just gonna wait out the UD.. but.. idk.. i'm pickin' 3rd round TKO..]
Franklin [he'll play it safe, avoid the subs, keep up the good striking, and try to avoid the takedowns as best as possible.. but i don't see him finishing for some reason.. i have a UD]
Starnes [i couldn't decide until just now..]
Bisping [he'll avoid the subs and break mccarthy's spirit]
Danzig
MacDonald [i always pick "el dirte" when he fights.. and he always loses.. soo.. this time... i gotta go w/ MacDonald.. even though.. i can't stand the guy]
Clementi [i know Stout's takedown defense has gotten wayy better.. but.. he's gettin' sub'd regardless]
Belcher ["Dooms" Day is pretty good.. i've been really impressed with Belcher in his UFC fights..]
Herman [i know Maia is supposed to be the next best prospect and what not.. but.. i think Ed's gonna give him some problems]
Goulet
Valasquez

i’ve said this plenty of times before.. but, i really mean it this time.. my fantasy card is going to get completely butchered!

Lets see what excuses George St Pierre has this time (as if getting punched in the head and KO'd had something to do with his personal life). Go Serra.

Which I guess is why he kept flashing what I thought at first to be a peace sign. I like Serra, he is cool, but I'll be rooting for GSP tomorrow.
