UFC Fight Night: Poirier vs. Johnson Picks and Predictions

After the circus that was UFC 203 and coming off our 200th podcast I feel like our readers deserve the truth. The truth is this card really isn't all that great. We have a decent main/co main event but the rest of the card is mostly filler. Still we press on and continue to break down every UFC card because even when a card is weak, MMA is still amazing. Like mentioned before, the main event between Dustin Poirier and Michael Johnson is a interesting fight that has some ramifications within the lightweight division and the co main event between Uriah Hall and Derek Brunson is an intriguing match up between two fighters with conflicting styles. The rest of the card showcase some mid range fighters the likes of Evan Dunham, Roan Carneiro and Kenny Robertson.

UFC 199: Rockhold vs Bisping II Predictions

It is the cementing of legacies versus a moment of redemption. Will past losses be avenged? Or will the tides press on, confirming the past moments that resonate with us today. These are the story lines going into UFC 199: Rockhold vs Bisping II. Originally slated to defend in a rematch against the recently dethroned Chris Weidman, Rockhold now takes on Michael Bisping in his first, and almost entirely improbable title shot. For some reason the UFC brass has also deemed it necessary to give us the Cruz vs Faber rubber match that none of us really wanted. This card is deep on action fighters that should make for an action packed night. Max Holloway continues his ascent toward title contendership, while an ever aging Dan Henderson will continue to carry o see if he can land that mega-nuke right hand against the always dangerous (in the first round) Hector Lombard. But personally, I am most awaiting the return of the king, Bobby Green, who has a potential fight of the night bonus in waiting against the always exciting to watch, Dustin Poirier. Check out our picks for the fights.

UFC middleweight championship
Luke Rockhold (c) vs Michael Bisping

Luke feelin' himself

And then... a handsome man entered the room. As an FYI, that is how every story involving Luke Rockhold begins. I just thought you should know. At this point, there aren't too many superlatives I can give out that you wouldn't already know for the man who beat the man, who beat THE MAN. Rockhold is every bit a complete fighter with nasty power while striking, and may the Seven protect you if he gets control of you on the ground. Michael Bisping knows this first hand with the way he was so effortlessly rolled over into a nasty top-side guillotine in their first outing. This is a title fight so I feel like I should say more, but this title shot is more so just a resume padder. Rockhold by choke submission, round 2.

Rockhold: unanimous

Bisping: Bobby's heart

UFC Fight Night 76 Predictions

What the poster for this card should look like

What a card for the UFC.  Injuries are a part of the game.  You can't avoid them.  but it's not often that that not just co-main event, but the main event gets KO'ed because of boo-boos.  This card went from this:

Graphics in this looking tight.  We got these guys looking straight up ethereal with how they are blend into that colorful back drop.  Stipe then gets hurt so we lose that fight;

"Ok, Ok so we lost the heavyweight fight with the potential title contender.  We still have the guy who last beat Conor! Fighting in Dublin! Cha-ching!....Hello?  Wait what's that you say? FUCK!!! Call Jimmy we need another fucking poster!!"

Well at least they still have an Irishman in the main event.

UFC Fight Night 63: Lamas v. Mendes Predictions

After a week off, the UFC takes it's show to Virginia.  Fight cards on Fox Sports 1 have had a tendency to disappoint (see Maia v. LaFlare).  This card has some promise though, with plenty of fighters in the main card willing to bang or at the very least push the action.  At the end of the day you can't ask for more than that in a card you don't have to pay money to watch.
