    Didn't see a thread for this. How do people see this one shaping up and what are your predictions please, bets need to be put on Twisted Evil

    I bolded some of my predictions, unsure what accumulator to do, how many fights do people do for their accums? I like to put a big bet on a treble and then stick a tenner on a full accum or maybe 8 of the 10 fights, what does anyone else think re betting?

    UFC 103: 19/9
    195lbs: Rich Rranklin v Vitor Belfort
    Hw: Mirko Filipovic v Junior dos Santos
    Ww: Josh Koscheck v Frank Trigg
    Ww: Paul Daley v Martin Kampmann
    Lw: Efrain Escudero v Cole Miller
    Lw: Hermes Franca v Tyson Griffin
    Lw: Rafael dos Anjos v Rob Emerson
    Lw: Jim Miller v Thiago Tavares
    Ww: Paul Daley v Brian Foster
    Mw: Drew McFedries v Tomasz Drwal
    Lhw: Eliot Marshall v Jason Brilz
    Lw: Nik Lentz v Rafaello Oliveira
    Lhw: Vladimir Matyushenko v Igor Pokrajac

    I also feel Dos Santos will KO or atleast defeat Mirko this weekend. Crocop has looked less than impressive in the octagon. And Santos is a dangerous opponent, IMO Dos Santos is top 10 HW.

    Although i would love to see Crocop win, as then rumour has it we will see Nog-Crocop 2 for title shot. cheers

    I reckon crocop will blitz dos santos, in his training video he looks like a monster, and he looks like he has been living out of the gym for weeks. Junior is in for a surprise.

    I think that the superior hand speed of Dos Santos will be the key here. Dos Santos is the bigger stronger fighter so he needs to close the distance like Kongo did and avoid that HLK of Cro Cops. If Dos Santos can land one clean shot, Cro Cop will be seeing stars. It should be a fun fight, I really like Dos Santos thats why im picking him. I wouldn't be suprised if Cro Cop won but I do expect him to lose.
