Ok so I saw this on another MMA site and thought it would be fun to try on here.

It's pretty simple really, I will pick one fight on the upcoming UFC card, so for this week on the UFC 153 the match I would chose is Jon Fitch vs. Erick Silva.  You pick who you think wins, you get it right you move on to the next round you get it wrong your out.

Now I don't know how many people are interested in this or how long it will take so for now I would say after 3 events of a single fight pick then I would switch to 2 fights a card. 3 cards later it would go to 3 fights a card etc.

Anyone can join but once the first week starts no one can join until the next one. If you join and forget to make your pick for a fight then you would be out. Once you make your pick that is who you are going with, no editing of posts!

In the case of a draw everyone would move on to the next round.

Who thinks they can survive???

Post in here with your pick and you will be added to the spreadsheet for the first week of Tapology Survivor 1!

Erick Silva.  He's faced the wrestling first type fighter before and he did just fine.  To be fair though, Fitch is very, very good at what he does best.  He may be a lay and prayer, but he knows how to make it work.  Tough fight to call.
