I see a lot of finishes here. Siler should get a sub, menjivar has a very easy fight, the Griggs fight will probably end in a ko one way or another, and costa very well could get a finish. Just my thoughts though.

I think Elkins, Maguire, Carvalho, Diabate, Cote, Carmont, and GSP fights all go to decision with the person I named the victor.

^^^^I see what you did there.

Also this card is a really big card by the shear amount of fights and it is stacked with some great prospects and with 4 of the Top 5 guys in the WW division in the Main and Co-Main. Can't wait for Costa to fight. The guy is one of my favorite fighters. :D

Anyone think some divine retribution might happen on this card after almost having all decisions in UFC: Macao? I mean even Gomi couldn't get a finish and that is on the lines of heresy if you think about it. I'm hoping we get some epic finishes on this card. :D

Maybe Dana throws some extra money on the table for the bonuses on this card. After all those decisions in Macao...

I've got 6 decisions & 7 finishes but the only fights I would feel confident enough in a finish to bet on would be Cote/Sakara and Hominick/Garza.

elkins is my lock. that guy took a ton a damage in the first round in his last fight and took it and weared that fighter down with better skills and a much better gas tank in 2nd and third rounds. i have half the card with decisions. i also took every canadian. i think as long as nick ring gets to the end he will win a decision. they love that guy in canada(the people and the judges}. gotta go against the grain in that fight. costa lately has been to alot of decisions. every canadian cept gsp. : ~

Kyle Kingsbury: Condit runs away most of the fight, but when he engages, GSP gets the takedowns and wins
