So theres about ~4 fights left to be announced, so going to go ahead and assume that its the finale (duh!) +3 from the show, so another 6 fighters (7 if you count Kimbo).

It's funny how the show keeps hyping up Kimbo as a potential replacement even though this fight with Alexander has been known for a while now.

The UFC hasn't even said anything about Rampage leaving either.

I like Wren, James, and Marcus to win. Marcus is going to murder meat head, like he did with Titties.

Glad Marcus didn't call it quits. Hopefully he can avoid any of Mitrione's bombs and just get it to the ground. He should win easy there. Not too interested in the other two fights, but it would be cool for Schoonover to get a win before he's sent off.

Posey H8er · Post #8 » by **Posey H8er** » Thu Dec 3, 2009 5:31 am

Yeah McSweeney came off as a big douche, so I would like to see Darrill get the win. I also want to see Marcus, Wren, Schaub, and Houston win.

Get Wren vs. Madsen off the main card and replace it with either Stann vs. Wallace or Schoon vs. McSweeney.

My bad, was kinda guessing which fight would be on main card.

LOL

My bad, I assumed this was just the announced card and not a guess. My guess is the Stann fight makes the main card.

Hopefully this isn't a problem and Kimbo makes weight and this fight takes place.

Kimbo could come in at 280 and that fight is still going to happen. No one is going to call this fight off on account of 5 pounds here or there. Houston will end Kimbo just as easy at 225 as he would at 215.

I don't really understand why it is at a catchweight anyway.

I think the main card is only 5 fights, and Stann vs. Wallace is not one of them as far as I know.

This Saturday night Dec. 5th live on Spike

My picks:

Matt Hamill vs. Jon Jones Hamill, I want Bones but I see Hamill slowing it down and LNP.
Frankie Edgar vs. Matt Veach Edgar, the dude is a stud one of my favs.
Kimbo Slice vs. Houston Alexander Kimbo, for the fact he will be much bigger fight night.
Roy Nelson vs Brendan Schaub For TUF 10 Championship, and 6 figure contract Nelson, no-brainer.
Brian Stann vs Rodney Wallace Stann, dont know the other dude.
Marcus Jones vs. Matt Mitrione Marcus, meathead needs a good beating.

undercard

Darrill Schoonover vs. James McSweeney McSweeney is just too experienced.
Justin Wren vs. Jon Madsen ???????????who are these fools??????????
John Howard vs. Dennis Hallman Hallman
Mark Bocek vs. Joe Brammer Bocek, dude is pretty decent, nice to see him on a big show again.

2009NBAChamps · Post #16 » by **2009NBAChamps** » Sat Dec 5, 2009 3:06 am

I'll take...

Jones (By some awkward yet amazing KO)
Edgar ... no contest
Kimbo... I wanna say Houston, but he always finds a way to disappoint
Nelson
Stann
Jones (hopefully)

Time to get my picks and thoughts in.

Matt Hamill vs. Jon Jones
I like Jones, but this is a tough fight for him. Almost a no win situation, because I don't think anyone will really be all that impressed by a win over Hamill, while he could just as easily lose the fight. I think he's got decent wrestling, but I'm not sure if it's good enough to keep Hamill off of him. I guess we'll see. I'm still picking Jones because I think he's the better fighter by far.

Frankie Edgar vs. Matt Veach
Edgar wins this fairly easily. More interested to see what's next for him.

Kimbo Slice vs. Houston Alexander
A little bit surprised by the odds on this one. Kimbo is like a 3 to 1 dog. I think this is about a 50/50 fight, because, come on...Houston Alexander isn't good either. Both of these guys have huge power and somewhat suspect chins, so I'd expect this one to end early. I think Kimbo is gonna win, but really, whoever connects first will probably get the win.

Roy Nelson vs Brendan Schaub For TUF 10 Championship, and 6 figure contract
I like Schaub, but he's going to be overmatched in this one. He's young, athletic, and with a good camp though, so I think his ceiling may well be higher than Nelson's, but right now, Nelson is the better fighter.

Brian Stann vs Rodney Wallace
No idea who Rodney Wallace is, but I looked him up, and he's 9-0 with a couple fights in the M-1 Challenge. I'm gonna pick him, just for fun, and because I don't think Stann is all that good.

Marcus Jones vs. Matt Mitrione
Really want Marcus to win, and if he can do one of those ridiculous takedowns, he probably will. But if he has to eat a shot or two on the way in, who knows what will happen. I'm not sure either one of these guys has what it takes to fight in the UFC, but I hope Big Baby wins so we get to see him try.

Darrill Schoonover vs. James McSweeney
I like Schoon in this one. I think McSweeney had a very easy road to get to where he did.

Justin Wren vs. Jon Madsen
Wren takes this easily. He might actually be good.

John Howard vs. Dennis Hallman
Hallman is a very tough and experienced guy, but I think Howard will beat him. Hallman has probably only been brought in for a fight with Hughes.

Mark Bocek vs. Joe Brammer
Bocek is pretty good, so I'll take him over the guy I've never heard of, even though he's undefeated as well.

Looking forward to this event.

Man, I wanted Marcus to win that one. Dude's standup is as bad as Kimbo's ground game.

HOLY ****.

Someone gif that Kimbo slam on Houston.

Houston got some major air there. Kimbo definitely has improved all around as a fighter.
