This is going to be a decision filled card I believe.  I'm positive GSP will win via Decision, but I hope Nick get KOTN in the first.  Every other fight on the main card could go either way depending on which version of the fighters appear that night.

Its a GSP card, there is bound to be a **** ton of decisions. Condit is the only one that i am confident enough can, and will get the late stoppage. Everybody else does just enough to get the nod. I hope every card is a finish tho, but i know its gonna be alot of boring, wrestling gameplan type of decisions.

I'm surprised there's people who are actually picking Diaz to beat, much more finish GSP.

I'm picking GSP to continuously takedown Diaz and pound him from the top to a decision.

Diaz mostly struggles against wrestlers and GSP's wrestling is some of the best wrestling not only in the welterweight division, but in MMA in general.

Diaz' ground game is one of the best at welterweight, but I don't think he'll be able to sub. GSP. GSP's sub. defense is really good and I know some will say the Hardy fight, but GSP knows better than that and I'm sure he's mostly been working on his head movement and sub. defense as those are the places where Diaz has the advantage.

@mmAPR0digy check the UFC's YouTube channel. They usually have the Facebook prelims on there too.

Whenever people bring up GSP's submission defense, I like to bring up how quickly he tapped to Matt Hughes' armbar, especially given there was only 1 second left in the round and Hughes didn't even tighten the lock all the way.
