Lay down your own predictions in the comments.

Mike Swick vs Josh Burkman - Swick easily wins unless a Burkman slam breaks Swick’s back.

Patrick Cote vs Drew McFedries - Contender for fight of the night. If either one connects its lights out for the other guy. Cote now has confidence after going on a nice win streak which was something that was holding him back previously. McFedries is on a 2 win streak against mediocre competition though. I’ll go with Cote, but I’m very conflicted because of McFedries heart.

Alvin Robinson vs Nate Diaz - I’ve seen Alvin Robinson quit against Kenny Florian and win a decision against Jorge Gurgel (who is not a great striker). Nate on the other hand is a no quit fighter who can beat you on the feet and on the ground. Diaz easily. I’ll be shocked if he loses.

Michihiro Omigawa vs Thiago Tavares - Tavares is bad mutha. Hes got sick cardio, submissions, and can strike pretty well. Tavares easily wins this fight as Omigawa is not particularly good and Tavares imo can be a contender for the title.

Alberto Crane vs Kurt Pellegrino - Crane is coming into his second fight in the UFC and its another tough fight against Pellgrino. Last time out Crane had no cardio against Roger Huerta and even though Pellgrino doesn’t have the same intensity as Huerta, Kurt does have alot of UFC experience against good competition. It will be interesting to see if Crane got his cardio up to par. This could either be the most boring fight of the night or the most exciting if you like a Jiu-Jitsu match. I’ll go with the favorite, Kurt Pellegrino.

Dennis Siver vs Gray Maynard - Gray Maynard because he trains with some of the best in the business and his strength/wrestling will likely be too much to handle.

Jeremy Stephens vs Cole Miller - If Stephens can avoid Miller’s submissions and lanky leg triangle chokes, than Stephens has a shot at a KO win. He came out strong against Din Thomas, before getting armbarred quite easily. With that said, I’ll go with Stephens on the idea that he trained hard against submissions, but this fight could also be 2nd for fight of the night contention imo.

Joe Veres vs Corey Hill - Too much height and length in favor of Corey Hill. The Real Deal takes this.

Justin Buchholz vs Matt Wiman - Wiman’s a tough SOB. He wins this in the 2nd or 3rd.
