Tim “The Maine-iac” Syliva may only have 2 losses but one of them are to “The Pitbull” Andrei Arlovski. In there first match-up Arlovski beat Sylvia by submission but first landing a straight right knocking Sylvia down to set it up. The second time Arlovski rocked Sylvia but couldn’t continue to poor it on as Sylvia got back to his feet and rocked Arlovski, winning by KO. I see Arlovski able to rock Sylvia again.. Sylvia got lucky the second time around.

Tito Ortiz vs Ken Shamrock
Record: 14-4 Record: 26-10-2

Pick: Ken Shamrock
I never been a fan of Tito Ortiz, I truthfully didn’t like the guy. But the way he trained his fighters on TUF he gained my respect. I see Shamrock as being to old and really not in the mind set to fight. But I feel that Tito Ortiz is still immature and still an ******* that Shamrock thinks he is. Just look at the way he fought Forrest Griffin.
My picks/bets:

Ortiz defeats Shamrock: 7924 points
Arlovski defeats silvia: 7000 points

I want Ken to win but i doubt he will, gotta pick ortiz for the sake of winning a bet. Arlovski/Silvia is risky though, it could go either way. But i'm thinking Arlovski underestimated silvia last time+Silvia got lucky, and this time arlovski will not make that mistake again.
