Prediction: correct Gustafsson   correct Submission   correct Round 2  

I'm catching heck from raray for picking a submission on this one (couple of kickboxers), AND GETTING IT. :) Pretty cheeseball, I admit.

Prediction: wrong Diabate   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

You completely cleaned up on that event -- 8 of 10???  If you start repeating those performances they're gonna lock you away in a bank vault.  As far as I can tell the French completely refuse to train on the ground so I guess we should have all seen this coming.

Prediction: correct Gustafsson   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

Please note that Gustafsson had never won by submission before Saturday night, nor had Diabate lost by submission since 2005. Why Gustafsson chose to work the choke four separate times before getting the tap instead of just hitting Diabate until the ref stopped it is a mystery to me.
