Who would think that it would be Mendes who breaks the string of decisions?!

I think it's safe to say McKenzie isn't on the same level as Mendes.

Guess everyone was right, that was a mismatch!

I picked Mendes by KO rd 1 just because McKenzie looked like he was strung out on meth.

Prior to the night, I wouldn't have picked Chad Mendes to be the first to finish a fight, but after all the decisions that happened, I called it just before the fight.

This next fight will be a decision. I don't see Kim finishing Maia by KO or submission, and I don't see Maia finishing Kim by sub or KO.

5 out of 7 so far, this next fight was really tough for me to pick because Maia has been so hot and cold lately, and Kim got finished quickly by Carlos Condit. Both fighters have lost to quality opposition, but I finally ended up picking Kim by decision.
