Foxtel's showing this delayed by 24 hours on Monday because "Aussie" boxer Vic Darchinyan is fighting on Sunday which means I'll have to avoid all intarweb from Sunday morning until I watch the the thing on Monday.
Anyway the fights I give a shit about are:
Brock Lesnar vs Frank Mir - I got Mir by KO. He won't even need BJJ this time. Brock is a beast but Mir's stand up was *Joe Rogan screaming* "PHENOMENAL" against Nogueira and it looks like he'll be even better this time. No one has tested Brock's chin yet and I reckon Mir will put him to sleep. Brock will then go home and plough the shit out of Sable.
Georges St Pierre vs Thiago Alves - GSP by TKO. Alves is the real deal but GSP is on another level. Alves has had enough trouble making weight in the past and on top of that, no welterweight has the cardio to keep up with GSP. Alves's only hope is landing a clean power shot but I don't think GSP will let him.
Dan Henderson vs Michael Bisping - Bisping by TKO or submission. I love Hendo but Bisping is getting better with every fight and not many guys work harder than him. He'll be too quick and won't stop moving. Hendo needs to land the big KO but he hasn't done that in 5 years. If it goes to the ground, Bisping will just get up or submit him but I think Bisping's gonna pick him apart like he did to Leben. I think it's ridiculous how most American's don't rate Bisping. It's similar to how they didn't rate GSO because he's not American or Brazillian. If I can find him paying more than $3 I'm gonna jump on it.
Jon Fitch vs Paul Thiago - Fitch by TKO or decision. This guy's got tremendous heart and and will either get a decision or punish Thiago in the later rounds.
Yoshihiro Akiyama vs Alan Belcher - Akiyama by KO. Belcher won't be able to handle the sexyness of Sexyama and will most likely blow his load when they touch gloves.
Stephan Bonnar vs Mark Coleman - Bonnar to put Coleman into a retirement home via TKO or submission.
The only other fights I'm interested in are seeing how Jon Jones goes and if Mac Danzig can get his career back on track.
Got a multi bet going with Bonnar, Bisping, Sexyama, GSP and Mir paying $17.10.
Also managed to get Mir by KO on Betfair paying $10 and trying to get GSP by KO/TKO at $5.
