Our very first pick is the main event for UFC 86 and the fight we are truly excited about.  This fight is Rampage vs Griffin and will either be a brutal knockout or a long drawn out fight.  We are betting on Brutal.

Rampage Jackson is an aggressive fighter with slam-a-bility and powerful striking. Forrest is a grappler with the heart of a lion.

FIGHT ANALYSIS: Griffin is going to look to stay out of Rampage’s wheelhouse in the beginning of this fight and hope to tire him out for a decision or submission victory. This is really his only hope of winning this battle. Griffin cannot knock out Rampage, Griffin cannot submit a NON-tired Rampage, and Griffin cannot out-strike a NON-tired Rampage. Rampage, however, CAN knockout Griffin, CAN ground and pound Griffin, and WILL win this fight. Rampage BY TKO stoppage in brutal fashion.

Our second pick for the Ultimate Fighter Finale (Rampage Vs Forrest) is on the Evan Tanner versus Kendall Grove fight.

Evan Tanner is a beast of a fighter with a blend of skills and can either ground and pound or submit his opponents in quick fashion. Kendall Grove is a tall fighter with good submission skills, but loves to stand up with his opponents and at least attempt to trade blows.

FIGHT ANALYSIS: Tanner’s stand up game is way too much for Grove. Grove will definitely attempt to take Tanner to the ground, but Tanner’s experience is too much to allow someone like Kendall Grove to submit him. Look for Tanner to finish this fight while Kendall is looking to submit and end this fight with a stoppage. Tanner BY TKO.

Our first pick for the Ultimate Fighter Finale (Rampage Vs Forrest) is on the Diego Sanchez versus Luigi Fioravanti fight.

Don’t forget to check out all the Ultimate Fighter 7 Betting Lines.

Diego Sanchez is a tough fighter that the UFC is betting on to become the next contender for the belt. He has good standup and excellent grappling / ground and pound.

Luigi Fioravanti has good takedown defence and powerful striking. He is coming off a recent win and looking to increase his ‘stock’ in the UFC.

FIGHT ANALYSIS: Stand up is the name of this game if Fioravanti is to have any chance at all in pulling out the win. While he has good takedown defense, he will need more than just that to stop the fury of Sanchez. Look for Sanchez to stay away from the heavy hands of Luigi while picking him apart with quick flurries. He will eventually rock Luigi and then take him to the ground where the battle will end. Sanchez BY TKO.
