    Default Yaoza11 TUF picks

    UFC Ultimate Fighter Finally 3

    Kenny Florian vs Sam Stout
    Record: 3-2 Record: 9-1-1

    Pick: Sam Stout
    Sam Stout made his UFC debut at UFC 58 defeating a though Spencer Fisher. Sam has the tools to say in the UFC. Kenny “KenFlo” Florian was in the finals of TUF season 1 and lost quickly to Diego Sanchez but has since rebounded with wins over Alex Karalexis, and Kit Cope but I don’t see him taking out Sam Stout unless he can control him on the ground.



    Keith Jardine vs Wilson Gouveia
    Record: 10-2-1 Record: 6-3

    Pick: Keith Jardine
    Wilson Gouveia will be making his UFC debut but doesn’t have a whole lot of experience. This should be an easy win for the “Dean of Mean” Keith Jardine. Jardine lost a close controversial decision to Stephen Bonnar in this last fight which I felt Jardine should had won.


    TUF Light Heavyweight Finals:
    Michael Bisping vs Josh Haynes
    Record: 10-0 Record: 7-4

    Pick: Michael Bisping
    Josh “Bring the Pain” Haynes is a great fighter and deserves to be in the finals of TUF season 3 but I don’t seem him coming close to taking Michael Bisping down to work his game. Michael “The Count” Bisping has to be everyone ‘s pick to win. He’s 10-0 and has destroyed any one he faced. Hands down, Josh Haynes will be down for “the count”



    TUF Middle Weight Finals:
    Ed Herman vs Kendall Grove
    Record: 10-3 Record: 5-3

    Pick: Kendall Grove
    Ed “Short Fuse” Herman holds wins over UFC veterans Nick Thompson and Dave Menne. Herman might look like a striker but his way to win is by submission. So is Kendall Grove. I feel that grove has more then it takes to win and in my mind has more heart then Herman.

    Matt Hamill vs Jesse Forbes
    Record: 0-0 Record: 2-0

    Pick: Matt Hamill
    Jesse Forbes is a young prospect but is mentally not experienced. Forbes lost twice on the show, quickly getting submitted. Matt Hamill had the hardest road being deaf. Hamill was Tito Ortiz’s first pick and was one of the most improved fighters. Only a wrestler he stood up and went toe to toe with Mike Nickels. The only reason Hamill is not in the finals is due to an injury.



    Kalib Starnes vs Danny Abaddi
    Record: 6-0-1 Record: 2-1

    Pick: Kalib Starnes
    Danny Abaddi is weak minded and I feel that if Starnes didn’t fight Kendall Grove then he would possible in the finals. Starnes can easily take Abaddi down and submit him. Abaddi has a punchers chance but I don’t see it happening.


    Rory Singer vs Ross Pointon
    Record: 8-5 Record: 4-6

    Pick: Ross Pointon
    Ross Pointon is a straight up striker because he’s 2-4 when it comes to submissions. Rory Singer is a submission fighter but I don’t see Pointon getting taken down easily but Ross Pointon only has a punchers chance but a better chance then Singer.


    Solomon Hutcherson vs Luigi Fioravanti
    Record: 6-2 Record: 7-1

    Pick: Solomon Hutcherson
    Luigi Fioravanti was very unimpressive against Chris Leben in is UFC debut. I see Hutcherson having his way in this match.


    Mike Nickels vs Wes Combs
    Record: 3-1 Record: 12-0

    Pick: Wes Combs
    Mike Nickels has his hands full. If he thought that is was hard to stand up with Matt Hamill he has another thing coming. Wes Combs is not only undefeated he’s won 9 of his 12 wins by KO. Nickels might want to take this fight to the ground but I cant see him taking Combs down.

    I agree mostly, except I have these two going the other way:
    Rory Singer vs Ross Pointon
    Solomon Hutcherson vs Luigi Fioravanti
    Randy Couture: I’m more of a battle of attrition, take you down, beat you up till you really don’t want to fight anymore, type of fighter

    BJ Penn: It's just the wrong time to fight BJ Penn.
