Yeah, I picked Feijao because I assumed Thiago would gas due to not being on steroids. Forgot they were in Brazil and he could most likely get away with it if he was.

Anyone else feel like this could be 5 rounds of them negating each other on the ground?

EDIT: Then again maybe not. Werdum looking up at the clock with 1 minute left in round 1? Not a good sign!

I thought that was fairly enjoyable, Nog had a good gameplan on the feet. But at this stage of his career, Werdum is just faster on the ground. GG Werdum, I think Cain or JDS would slaughter you.

Or you know, all of my predictions up above could suck!

Only 10 points from winning the pool on only my 2nd event. The goal, however, is to beat Grimmlokk, so in reality I've won every pool I've entered!

Upcoming UFC is a Brazil card. I picked multiple underdogs for some reason, which is dumb since these cards are always stacked with mismatches Fuck it, I'm going down with this ship!

Yeah, I really should have just done what I usually do on these and picked all Brazilians=P

Anyone have a stream for Metamoris 2?

Celebrindal · Jun 9, 2013

Couldn't find one so I decided to buy it. Might as well support it.

I'm torn on my picks for Saturday. I have never been a huge fan of Evans, but at his best he is pretty good. His last fight was fucking awful, and I don't know if it was an anomaly or if he is just done giving a shit. I love Henderson and have a hard time picking against him, but I feel like if Evans is at his best he is probably too quick and too strong for Hendo. My gut says Evans by decision, but I can't think of anything I would love more than for Hendo to KO Evans, Bisping style.

There was a recent story about Evans not having his head in the game. Went through a lot of personal shit with a divorce and such I guess. But now he's back and just like every fighter ever he's better than ever!

It's been a little while since my level of shits given for an even has been this low.

Right, which is the story that comes out every time after a fighter loses and they are coming into their next fight.

Top to bottom, this is a pretty meh card with a shitty main event. I will still make my picks and watch though!

Hence this part of my post.

"and just like every fighter ever he's better than ever!"

Yeah, I never buy this shit=P I think Jens Pulver is about 6 years in to being BACK AND BETTER THAN EVER! By this point if he was actually improving like that he should just be Goku out there blowing fools up from across the ring.

Yes, I caught your sarcasm just didn't respond to it clearly to enhance it to higher levels of sarcasm!

I try!

Dana tweeted Pettis is out to injury. Aldo will face Jung in August in Rio.

That sucks mountains of dick, but glad they actually had someone awesome to fill in.

I didn't realize KZ hasn't fought since last May. Holy fuck. And only 3 times since the WEC absorption. He's awesome and 3-0 in the org, but man that's a long fuckin' break for a guy to get a title shot.

I wish sherdog listed the weight class for individual fights. KZ has been at 145 the whole time I think, but I was thinking about other guys who jump classes and go on streaks. I'd like to be able to see where each fight was.

edit: Not even sure who else they'd have fill in. Mendes would be the obvious choice, he's been rolling since Aldo beat him and that was his only loss. But he fought just over a month ago.

They probably should have gone with KZ's planned opponent Ricardo Lamas. He's at least been fighting and it was a title eliminator anyways.

Hope Pat Curran gets in to the UFC at some point, dude is awesome.

Since I'm in Vegas I think I'll put some money on this event. Do they do parlay's like football or what? Yes, I realize that I'm only a 5 minute walk from a sportsbook, but I figured I'd ask since I'm fucking...you know, that word that means I don't like to do shit.

Tuco · Jun 14, 2013

rashad evans vs henderson = snooze fest. Rashad will just run and take potshots at Hendo for 5 rounds.

The joke doesn't really work very well when you type substantially more words than it would have taken to just type lazy.
