UFC 123 picks.

[Super Mario]

A LOT of **** on this card. WTF is up with Karo and Tyson being on the prelims? That's a bunch of ******** when no-names like Falcao, Harris, Davis and Boetsch get main card spots. The Karo and Griffin fight's should AT LEAST be on the Spike TV portion of the card.


There's a lot of throw away picks in here, and I just picked some, just to pick them.


I hope Machinda destroys Rampage.

I hate both Hughes and Penn, but I'd like to see Baby J put Hughes into retirement. Maybe a snapped limb or something. I kid.

* Light Heavyweight bout: Quinton Jackson vs. Lyoto Machida
* Welterweight bout: Matt Hughes vs. B.J. Penn
* Middleweight bout: Gerald Harris vs. Maiquel Falcão

And I am SUPER glad that THE HEAT is back in the UFC!!!

Always been a favorite of mine!

 

[Ty Hope]

I'm a fan of both Rampage and Machida, so tough pick for me. Common sense tells me Machida in this one, but my gut feeling says Rampage so I'll go with that.

Pretty much the same with Hughes and Penn. Penn should win, but I will take Hughes. Just a feeling.

I could see Rampage KO'ing Machida, and Penn getting smothered the whole fight, but I hope that isn't the case.

I will go wih the same picks as you Sam, except I think Rampage beats Machida as well. The ones I am scared of is Lauzon and Penn, but I like them both and that is who I am going with just the same.

Russ S. (barring jetlag) and I will be busting a case of Topps UFC Round 4 on fight night as well.

 

[Bornagaincollector]

O'm only picking 3 fights.

Machida tko round 2
Penn decision
Munoz tko round 1

 

[Etanju]

I could have swore that I put some picks in here. Oh well whatever. I will throw some more down anyway. Also I have taken Seanho and Russ's Man Cards. They can explain why.

Machida
Penn
George The Aussie
Harris
Davis
Munoz

I love the heat as well. I met his family at UFC 44 we were all sitting together. Being a Judo guy myself I had been told Karo is a great competitor as well as Judoka.

Love to See a Rampage TKO in 2

BJ Penn by RNC just for humiliation


Joe Lauzon home grown talent by TKO 1st

Karo unfortunately has earned my nickname for him

Karo "The Decisyan Parisyan" JD

Main Card

* Light Heavyweight bout: Quinton Jackson vs. Lyoto Machida- Machida by decison

* Welterweight bout: Matt Hughes vs. B.J. Penn- refuse to pick a winner because they are both two of my favorite fighters, I can see BJ finishing it and I can see Matt taking a decision, should be good.

* Lightweight bout: George Sotiropoulos vs. Joe Lauzon- Sotiropoulos will win, I like Lauzon a lot better than George but I don't see how Joe can beat him. I am looking forward to this fight the most.

Other Fights:
Harris
Davis
Simpson
Foster
Barbosa
Hallman
Kelly
Griffin

You can't refuse to choose a winner just because you like both, lol.

I chose when KenFlo was fighting Joe Daddy. I always choose. Unless they're fighters I have never heard of, then Hell, I usually throw out a guess anyway.

But you have to choose Meadows. Who's winning tonight, BJ or Mr. ImABitchAndWontSignACardinalsHatAtHraboskysInStLouisWithRobbieLawlerBeforeACardinalsCubsGame??

 

[Meadows24]

Well Bj hasn't seemed to have the fire as of late and Hughes is on a massive tear. Although I want to say Hughes I think BJ is too fast and Matt will have a tough time taking him down. I will take BJ by decision although I will be happy to see either win and am rooting for both.

Now I finally know why you hate Matt "ImABitchAndWontSignACardinalsHatAtHraboskysInStLouisWithRobbieLawlerBeforeACardinalsCubsGame" Hughes.

Awesome fight out of the gate. I really hope there is more fights like that?

 

[Meadows24]

Is it me or did Karo look extremely out of shape?
