Sensei, who are you rooting for (not necessary who you think will win)?

Here's my pick:

Randy Couture

Chris Lytle

Rich Franklin

Jason Lambert

Drew McFedries

These were mine. I was off on 4 of them:

-Tim Sylvia vs. Randy Couture – Tim Sylvia, KO big right hand
-Matt Hughes vs. Chris Lytle – Matt Hughes, must come back
-Rich Franklin vs. Jason MacDonald - Rich Franklin, Gonna be good, Rich has to come back also
-Renato "Babalu" Sobral vs. Jason Lambert – Renato Sobral, he has been in w/ Chuck 2X
-Martin Kampmann vs. Drew McFedries - Kampmann

Preliminary Bouts:
-Jon Fitch vs. Luigi Fioravanti - Luigi, I liked how he looked against Chris Leben
-Matt Hamill vs. Rex Holman – Hamill, he is 7 yrs. younger, 37 vs 30
-Gleison Tibau vs. Jason Dent – Tibau because he has twice as many fights
-Jamie Varner vs. Jason Gilliam - Varner
Thanks,
Sensei Tom

Wow! Just as I predicted. Randy just kicked butt! He is right that Tim Sylvia is too chicken to loose his belt that he fights very safely...enough to win but doesn't go all the way and act like a champion. Glad that's over. He should be changing his tactic now!

As for Matt Hughes...I was not rooting for him. Can't stand that guy anymore. He got too big of a head.

Sensei, Tom...thanks for the update! I really appreciate it!
