UFC 101 fight card

UFC 101 is going to be an exciting event, hands down. it features the lightweight title match that in my eyes will determine who really is the number one light weight fighter in the world. It also features the crazy matchup of Anderson Silva against Forrest Griffin. Try not to miss this PPV. here are my predictions and why.

Kenny Florian vs BJ Penn - BJ has decent boxing skills and a ground game that is top notch. Florian however is too crafty on the feet to get hurt by Penn, and on the ground is smart enough to avoid Penn's submissions. this is gonna break penn down after a few rounds and Florian will run away with it.
prediction: Florian

Anderson Silva vs Forrest Griffin- no doubt, Silva is the best technician in the world. his skill set is second to none. here's the problem, you can't train for Griffin. no technique can help you, you have to outfight him. Silva can't do that,
prediction : Griffin

Amir Sodolah vs Johnny Hendricks- Amir impresses again and goes up another step in the UFC
prediction: Sodolah

Kendall Grove vs Ricardo Almeida- what a fight! this is gonna be a barn burner! however, Kendall Grove's long limbs are gonna get wrapped up sometime or another and Almeida gets a submission victory
prediction : Almeida

Josh Neer vs Kurt Pelligrino- this will be a dogfight, i promise. Pelligrino has no quit in him and will fight his butt off all night. but Neer is too much a veteran and is prepared to fight all night as well.
prediction : Neer

Thales Leites vs Alessio Sakara- Sakara's last fight in the UFC im afraid. Sakara simply is not cut out for the big stage, he sure as heck isn't ready to fight the guy who just fought the pound for pound best, Anderson Silva, lost, and is now lookin to get back in contention. DO NOT BE FOOLED, SAKARA CANNOT WIN THIS FIGHT!
prediction : Leites

there you have it, a few of the better fights coming up for UFC 101. this will be an excellent event, don't miss it.
