Prediction: wrong Ellenberger   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 4  

source: http://www.mmaweekly.com/ellenberger-vs-kampmann-set-as-no-1-contenders-bout-headlines-tuf-live-finale

sure it'll be a great fight, but waiting for gsp condit?

that'll be november if theres no more delays. gsp has had defences without taking a scratch, and condit could win by flash knockout and not be damaged. so a quick turn arounds possible. what im getting at is all factors going favourably the shot is febuary 2013.

so in addition to condit waiting til november at least, gsp being out that long, diaz being diaz, bj still retired now either kampmann or jake will sit out A MINIMUM OF 8 MONTHS BETWEEN FIGHTS. and making 3 fighters calenders dependant on gsps knee.

is it me or is the 170lb division being managed poorly this year?

Glad to see someone will get a title shot. i think Ellenberger has a better chance at beating Condit.

I will put money on the winner of this fight having to fight at least one more time before a title shot. You can't believe DW with his number one contender crap anymore. Ellenberger and Kampmann aren't going to want to or be allowed to wait at least 10 months for a title shot.

Prediction: correct Kampmann   wrong Submission   wrong Round 3  

I'm with @skelli here, not gonna happen unless GSP is ready earlier than everybody is expecting. To call it a Nr. 1 contender fight makes more people tune in, probably the only reason they do it.

If Condit wants to wait which I think he will do they could do another "contender fight" with the winner of Kos/Hendricks against Kampmann or Ellenberger...

@kallous- ellenberger/kampmann vs condit is what i think should happen (that or ellenberger got condit over the summer) but i dont see it happening.

@dielegende thats what i see happening, but it just means this time next year other than the champ no one in the top 10 has a decent streak, due to eliminating each other in this quasi tournament set up, no ones seen as deserving of a shot, and the champ sits out again waiting on another number 1 contender match. and especially if its gsp thats just not what he needs at this stage in his career

i think Ellenberger will beat Kampman as well as Condit! But then GSP will come back and smash him into chalk dust :/

I think he has a chance but not a big one at all. I will be rooting for him though if it happens.

@ Anik, as a big fan of Kampmann I like to think so. In reality GSP wins 9 out of 10 times. If they ever fight I hope Kampmann can be the exception that proves the rule.

He could knock him out like Serra or tap him out like Hughes, but like I said 9 out of 10 times it would be the other way around...

Think both are too much for Kampmann, even if Ellenberger shows holes in his game against Sanchez in the 3rd..

Kampmann cannot knock anyone out worth a ****, He is purely technical, GSP would whipe the floor with him 10 out of 10 fights.... The only guys Kampmann knocked out were 3 no namers in the very beginning of his career and some other can in early 2009.... Honestly Kampmann should not be such a dumbass and use his ground game more, he has much more success there.

 On the other note Ellenberger has one punch KO ability, but if GSP gets Ellenberger into the 3rd round he would win. And I know without a doubt Ellenberger has much more power in his punches than Serra.

@ dielegende23, I think he has great potential, but his whiny ass, sore losing attitude and horrible gameplans don't appease to me.  I think he's gotten lucky over the past 2 fights he's had... Alves shooting in giving his neck to Kampmann, when he clearly dominated for three rounds and Story blowing his bursa sack in his knee in the first 30 seconds of the second round, when Story whooped on him the first round.... I'm sure he would've complained like a crybaby if the Alves fight went to a decision and he lost,... Ellenberger will hopefully knock his ass out in the 1st so I don't have to hear it anymore.

Prediction: correct Kampmann   wrong Submission   wrong Round 3  

Well you say he got lucky in his last 2 fights, but he got srewed in the 2 fights before that so it's just karma if you will. Also he has a right to be upset, it's his career and if you got ambition and want to achieve something with it and guys who call themselfs judges srew you over I would be upset too.

Kampmann admitted in the post fight interview that Alves was the better guy, and made fun about himself what are you talking about?

And the Ellenberger fight, as far as that goes I hope Ellenberger dominates and Martin finishs him in the last round so you can be bit more bitter about it... ;->

He was still complaining about his losses in pre-fight interviews coming up to his fight with Alves... when he had already gotten a win over Story... As for his losses, it's his own fault for leaving a close fight into the hands of the judges...Move on, Be humble, and learn from your losses, don't ***** about a loss from 18 months ago(Shields fight)  and a year ago(Sanchez fight) It doesn't do any good dwelling on the past.
As for the interview you read, thats because he won....LOL if he would've lost it would've been a different story..... Wow you are very spiteful in making a comment that you hope Kampmann wins so I'll be specifically bitter about it.... Im not worried though because that isn't going to happen... Your boy Kampmann's head is gonna be in the nosebleed section in the first round. =)
