Great victory for Koscheck.

UFC 106 Tito Ortiz vs. Forrest Griffin Quick Picks

I am picking…
Jason Dent over George Sotiropoulos
Caol Uno over Fabricio Camoes
Brock Larson over Brian Foster
Kendall Grove over Jake Rosholt
Ben Saunders over Marcus Davis
Amir Sadollah over Phil Baroni (this was a tough one for me, I really like Baroni, one of the greatest evah.)
Antonio Rogerio Nogueira over Luiz Cane
Jacob Volkmann over Paulo Thiago in an unexpect upset.
Anthony Johnson over Josh Koscheck – should be great, and it’s a tough one for me to pick, I tend to think Koscheck is getting KO’d here, but I would actually like to see him win.

and… Tito Ortiz is going to ground and pound Forrest Griffin on his way to another UFC title.

Affliction: Fedor vs. Arlovski Results

No I won’t be “live blogging”, because I will be “live partying” while watching the event. Will this be the fight where Fedor shows a weakness? Nah…I don’t think so.

Antonio Rogerio Nogueira defeats Vladimir Matyushenko by KO (knee)

Dan Lauzon defeats Bobby Green via submission (rear naked choke)

Paul Buentello defeats Kirill Sidelnikov via TKO (doctor stoppage)

Renato “Babalu” Sobral defeats Rameau Thierry Sokoudjou by submission (anaconda choke)

Ok, I’ll start blogging a little bit now as I’m able to be in front of the computer for a few minutes.

Damn, Matt Lindland got WRECKED by Vitor Belfort.. Round one, 37 seconds..I hope dude is OK, he was totally out of it for several minutes, and had much trouble trying to stand up. One of the worst scenes in MMA for awhile.

Josh Barnett vs. Gilbert Yvel – Barnett beat on Gilbert Yvel for most of 3 rounds, which Yvel was mounted by Barnett nearly the entire time before tapping out due to strikes in round 3. Barnett wins by tapout in round 3. I guess Barnett gets the winner of Fedor/Arlovski now.

Fedor Emelianenko vs. Andrei Arlovski – Well, Arlovski did great with his striking, and even clinching, and he looked like he had Fedor in a bit of trouble before Fedor threw a right hand upside Arlovski’s suspect chin. The result was Andrei Arlovski laying face down on the mat. Fedor wins in round 1 by KO.
