Fight Analysis: This fight will be fast and furious. Lesnar loves to come barreling ahead looking to surprise his opponents while Cain relies on his excellent skillset.


This is one heck of a tough matchup. Cain and Brock are both tough as nails and will not go out easily. Look for Cain to stand with Brock at first and lay out some mighty blows. Brock, however, WILL get Cain to the ground and end the fight there. I am not a Brock fan, but this is how I see the fight going. This is a Round 1 or Round 2 ending.

Prediction: Lesnar by TKO

Fight Analysis: Shields has tons of experience in Strikeforce and one hell of a ground game. This is the battle of standup vs ground game and the only way Kampmann will be able to pull this one out is to keep Shields from taking it to the ground – which will simply not happen. Shields will take this to the ground and end the game there.

Prediction: Shields by Submission

Fight Analysis: Diego is always super-fast, super-furious. Look for him to try to overwhelm Thiago immediately with a rush of power and fury. I believe Thiago will be able to hang on while attempting takedowns and getting a few points. Diego however, will win this by sheer volume.

Prediction: Diego by Unanimous Decision

Fight Analysis: This matchup, for me, is an easy one. Tito just doesn’t have the well-rounded skills that Matt Hamill brings to the table. Plus Hamill has excellent wrestling skills on TOP of heavy hands. I see this fight ending with Matt Hamill’s heavy hands ending the fight.

Prediction: Hamill by TKO

Fight Analysis: This is a tough matchup with Schaub’s excellent standup and conditioning matched up with Gonzaga’s standup power, powerful kicks, and BJJ. This fight will stay standing, IMO, and surprising enough I predict that Gonzaga will lay a kick upon Schaub that will rock him completely. Schaub already has a suspect chin after the Nelson fight, so I see Gonzaga exploiting this and sending Schaub to the canvas.

Prediction: Gonzaga by TKO

Fight Analysis: This is one of the easier battles to predict, IMO. While Mirko has the talent to lay a mighty kick on Frank, Mir has a hell of a chin and excellent stand up skills. I see Mir feeling out Cro Cop in the early minute of the match and then letting his hands go more and more as the round progresses. Mir’s stand up is crisp and looking better each fight that he has. He will hit Mirko with a combination, knocking him down to the canvas. Mir will swarm quickly and a submission will be VERY quick to follow.

Prediction: Mir by Submission

Fight Analysis: This is an interesting matchup that could really go either way. Nogueira has a slightly better standup and good submissions while Bader has strong wrestling, which Nog has had some recent issues with. If Bader stands up for too long, Nogueira will eventually win out in this fight. However – If Bader can take Nogueira down AND keep the submissions from ending the fight, he will easily be the victor. I believe that Bader will indeed take Nogueira down at will and stay away from submissions. Bader won’t finish him, but will edge out the decision based upon the number of takedowns along with the dominance on the ground.

Prediction: Bader by decision

Fight Analysis: This may well be the fight of the night. Matt Serra and Chris Lytle both have excellent submissions and both love to stand and trade punches. Serra is possibly (although not surely) the better submission guy, but it is so close that I do not see submission as the way to win this battle. Lytle has never been knocked out but has certainly been rocked a few times. Serra has tons of power in his hands but has to get close with the short reach and tends to let his hands go with recklessness. Lytle has power as well, but probably not enough to knock out Serra. This is a very tough pick, but I believe Serra will rock Lytle enough times to edge out a decision.

Prediction: Serra by decision.

Fight Analysis: Evan Dunham is an up and comer with excellent skills in nearly every facet of MMA. He is a good Brazillian jiu-jitsu fighter with good submissions, has a good stand up game, and is a decent wrestler. Sean Sherk is a high-speed machine with excellent standup and awesome ground and pound. This fight will be fast-paced from the start. Sherk will come with everything he’s got and overwhelm Dunham from the start. Sherk’s wrestling ability will see Dunham on his back and unable to shake him off. Evan had trouble with lesser wrestlers than Sherk, so I do not see him able to counter what Sherk has. While Sherk will not finish him, he will outfight him and take the decision easily.

Prediction: Sherk by decision.
