Prediction: wrong Overeem   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

I don't think there is such a thing as a lucky KO. Whenever the underdog wins, people will point to one event and call it lucky. No. There were missed free throws, botched assignments, idiotic penalties, and fielding errors that LEAD to one event, but no. It was never just one basket, just one base hit or just one pass play that caused someone to win or lose.

Amp112 I totally agree with you there is no such thing as a lucky KO. But I not surprise he said that coming from the same guy who said "people are underestimating Big Foot" . Like I said I just hope Big foot comes out of it alive. This is going to be either one of the quickest knock out in UFC history or one of the most brutal knock out in UFC history or both.

Prediction: wrong Overeem   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

If Silva wins, it is because: he was better prepared, Overeem was underprepared or a combination of the two. In all likelihood, Overeem will beat Silva, by some kind of KO, but no one actually believes that Silva has no business being in the cage with Overeem.

You pick Ubereem because you know Bigfoot has no chance, you just "wish" that he can pull it off lol

I wouldn't say no chance, but I think Overeem is too strong in the early rounds. I wouldn't be surprised if he gasses and Silva takes him down in the 2nd if it goes past that. I will say that Silva has faced much better competition recently, even if he has lost the majority of those fights. :P

@Gregory The Reem is still listed under Golden Glory in Amsterdam, couldn't care less but Overhorse won't be happy if he ever comes across Tapology and sees this....is my guess.

Overeem looks a lot different from his last weigh-in.  I don't think it'll change the fact that he will lay Bigfoot out in the first round.

Overeem isn't as ripped-up this time around because he is looking past Bigfoot BIGTIME. I feel like he did the same thing in the Brian Rogers fight, but it didn't seem to matter. It isn't likely to matter here either. Overeem did NOT overlook Lesnar, and he looked to be in fantastic shape at the weigh-ins for that fight.
