As you all know this fight card has my attention. I have my good friend and team mate Brendan Schaub facing Gonzaga and of course the much anticipated match with Brock Lesnar and Cain.
Schaub vs Gonzaga- Gonzaga is a tough fight for anyone in the UFC. He brings heavy hands and amazing BJJ to the table. Brendan is young but every bit as powerful as Gonzaga. Brendan has the momentum and I think he will win this close fight.
Ortiz vs Hamill- I think Matt Hamill pulls out the victory. Tito is a very tough opponent but I think Hamill matches his wrestling and if Hamill attacks he should win. The big question is will Hamill put his friendship on the sideline for this fight.
Sanchez vs Thiago- I think Sanchez will out work Thiago. He keeps coming and his cardio and drive are going to be the deciding factor.
Shields vs Kampman- Kampman is a tough fighter who brings a lot to the table. I think his striking is going to be the key to earning a victory. I think Shields will be too much if the fight hits the ground and Shields has the skills to get the fight to the mat.
Lesnar vs Velasquez- While Brock is an amazing Champion and showed that he has the ability to win any fight he is in. I think Cain will have the advantage in the stand up and I do not think Brock's wrestling is going to be miles ahead of anything that Velasquez has seen before. I think Cain's cardio, kickboxing, and elite level wrestling will give him a slight edge in this fight.
Carwin went 5 for 5!
