What a piece of shit.

I wouldn't blame Dana for trying to get rid of him if this turns out to be true.

Karo isn't as relevant as he used to be, especially in the face of the new casual mainstream that has allowed the sport to skyrocket.

It's time to end it when the girlfriend stats signing you up for anything without your knowhow. Especially on UFC night.

Yeah I'd have no problem telling my gf that I was watching the fights instead of that crap. Hell I wouldnt do that even if there was absolutely nothing to do. Probably why I dont have a gf. :D

Not too long now. I'm more excited about this than the damn Super Bowl. Lots of food and beer tonight! Good thing about being in Hawaii is that you can watch all the major sporting events in the afternoon and still have ample time to get wasted later. Awesome!

Man, I really like GSP, but I hope BJ destroys him.

Tonight combined with the Superbowl tomorrow is going to leave me in pretty bad condition come Monday :lol

George St Pierre vs BJ Penn

GSP is good but BJ is a fucking prodigy. GSP will not beat BJ standing. GSP will not be able to takedown BJ Penn. GSP will not do damage on the ground to BJ. The only way I see GSP winning is by decision. The problem is that gives BJ Penn 25 minutes to knock GSP out, or sub him. Everyone thinks BJ will gas. He did not have to cut weight for this fight. BJ's cardio will be top notch. BJ will knock out or sub GSP in the 3rd round.

P.S. Freddy Roach said BJ is the best boxer in MMA. Anderson Silva said BJ is p4p the best. He said no to Fedor and GSP. BJ trains with All-American wrestlers. And trains with the LEGENDARY Sergio Cunha of Chutebox fame for eight months!

Lyoto Machida vs Thiago Silva

Machida is too fucking elusive. I really want to see him get knocked the fuck out. If Thiago Silva can do it, I will jump out of my seat. I doubt it though. Machida by decision.

Stepan Bonnar vs Jon Jones

I'm going to go for the upset here. I didn't like how Bonnar looked at the weigh in and it is such a long lay off to get back into fighting. Jones by KO in the 1st round.

Karo Parisyan vs Dong Hyun Kim

WTF is wrong with Karo. And this is coming from a big Karo Parisyan fan! He looked like he didn't want to be there at the weigh in and he was pudgy. Yeah, yeah, I know this isn't a body builidng competition but he did not look good at all. I hope Karo can pull a win out but I am changing my pick to Stun Gun!

Nate Diaz vs Clay Guida

This will be my next favorite fight on the card. Two of my favorite LWs in the division. Guida will bring that relentless pace that he always brings. And Nate will stay repping "209." I see this fight going to the 2nd or 3rd round with Nate subbing Guida off his back by ummmm... triangle choke! NATE "209" DIAZ!

Jon Fitch vs Akihiro Gono

Jon Fitch will win this fight easy. Ugh. I hope Gono wins tho.

Thiago Tavares vs Manny Gamburyan

This is another toss up fight. I am going with Manny because I think Tavares's stand up skills is garbage. His bjj is amazing tho but I think Tavares will have a lot of trouble trying to take down Manny.

Matt Arroyo vs Dan Cramer

Matt Arroyo by sub.

do what i do right before christmas, valentines, and the birthday; break up with her then beg her to take you back after the fight.
 
GSP vs BJPenn
I know Penn got the better of GSP in the feet in the first fight but I don't see it playing out the same way this time, and I also expect GSP to be able to take and keep BJ down. TKO due to strikes rd 3.

Lyoto Machida vs Thiago Silva
It will play out like all of Machida's fights. Thiago will chase Machida will get the decision.

Stephan Bonner vs Jon Jones
I don't expect him to have much trouble.

Nate Diaz vs Clay Guida
I expect Guida to take Diaz down and get sumbitted.

George St Pierre vs BJ Penn

I'm picking BJ for the upset. I think he can KO GSP on the feet or maybe take his back and sub him. The only thing I'm afraid of is the fight sort of playing out like the first one, where GSP gets some take downs and wins a narrow decision.

Lyoto Machida vs Thiago Silva

Most likely Machida will win this fight via decision by being "elusive". I hope Silva KOs this guy, I'm tired of Machida coming out and outpointing his opponents. It would be an epic night to see his bandwagon go down like the Titanic.

Stepan Bonnar vs Jon Jones

I'll take the American Psycho in this one. I got to support a fellow Region Rat.

Karo Parisyan vs Dong Hyun Kim

The Heat looked like shit at the weigh in and given his mental status, I think the stun gun can pull the upset.

Nate Diaz vs Clay Guida

Fight of the Night right here guys. I think Clay will get caught by a slick sub. Stockton CA represent lol.

Jon Fitch vs Akihiro Gono

I think Fitch takes this, I hope the fight is televised. Dana is a bitch.

Thiago Tavares vs Manny Gamburyan

Manny by lay n pray.

Only an hour or so away, so I'll throw out my picks.

George St Pierre vs BJ Penn
Decision goes to GSP in a controversial but epic fight

Lyoto Machida vs Thiago Silva
Silva by KO, this will be the fight where Machida gets caught.

Stepan Bonnar vs Jon Jones
Bonnar by decision. Welcome back Bonnar, here's a tune up match to get back into the groove.

Karo Parisyan vs Dong Hyun Kim
Karo by KO, because I don't know who DHK is.

Nate Diaz vs Clay Guida
Nate by submission. This is going to be a great fight, the Carpenter is going to be able to take Diaz down but won't be able to finish and he'll make a silly mistake so easy a caveman could do it.

Jon Fitch vs Akihiro Gono
Fitch by KO, the fro is going down.

Thiago Tavares vs Manny Gamburyan
Tavares by KO

Why do people say this? Do they know this is a rematch? Do they know GSP took Penn down at will their first fight?

Why is any mention of piracy in any form dealt a swift banning except for PPV streams? Stealing this is ok where everything else isn't?

Guida is relentless. Nate can't get a break, but if he can hold something for a second or two, you know he'll get the sub. Fun match. PEACE.
 
Nate doesn't have enough time right now to win the way he wants to. He should have played it safe and just used that reach to milk the win.

This is probably over unless he gets a sub which is definitely possible.
 
Tough fight to call. I think Nate had the more effective offense. Guida was on him in better position through the fight though but didn't do much damage.

Oddly enough I would give it to Nate.
 
What a fucking shitty ass loss for Diaz. I'll give credit to Guida for basically doing what he needed to do to ink out the decision, but Diaz lost that fight more than Guida won it.
 
Has Guida adbandoned strikes entirely on the ground? This is the second fight which he has done nothing but smothered his opponent once he took them down.

I think he was just too afraid of Diaz's submission skills - with good reason.

Guida was fighting this fight to get to the title fight so I can see why he was so hesitant to risk GnP with Diaz.
