I'm wondering if I should stick with Kingsbury or go to Maldonado.  Maybe I'm giving too much credit to Kingbury's last quick performance.

@Gregory: I started off with Kingsbury and then switched.  I was thinking along the same lines.  Maldonado seems like a beast even though his competition thus far haven't been world-beaters.  We'll see if he can step up.

I'm not so confident in Maldonado, but if they stand for even a round, Maldonado will take it.

I'll try to make my picks later tonight. I didn't watch TUF so I'm gonna have to scan few some episodes before I make my picks. So far I've only picked Pettis and Grispi.

While this season of TUF failed to deliver a lot of drama, a massive rivalry between the coaches, and a great stable of WWs, the TUF finale will at least give us one great main event as Clay Guida will try to knock Anthony Pettis out of the running for the next shot at the LW title, and try to move himself up the LW ladder. This fight could easily be a co-main event on a PPV card. Who has the upper hand in this fight? Both fighters are coming off of very impressive victories in their last fights. Pettis who beat Ben Henderson to become the WEC LW Champion, and Clay Guida who beat quite possibly Japan's greatest LW in Takanori Gomi. I picked Pettis to win, but I'm going to be cheering for Guida. You never know what to expect from either fighter. I'm really looking forward to tonight's main event.
