I normally do alright 
I shouldn't put money on things though. I'm a shark at pool but as soon as I put money on it I can't even hit the *******.

Looks like the UFC has a new Middleweight Champion if your poor predictions are anything to go by.I normally do alright

No idea how one of those judges gave 29-28 to Pearson. Pearson did well to last that long and walk through a lot of Barboza's attacks but Barboza clearly won that with ease.

Just to confirm my predictions...
Anderson Silva (c) vs. Yushin Okami
Maurício Rua vs. Forrest Griffin
Brendan Schaub vs. Antônio Rodrigo Nogueira
Ross Pearson vs. Edson Barboza
Luiz Cane vs. Stanislav Nedkov
Out of the main card I haven't got one right.
Okami f t w!!
Shogun looked good!

I'm sitting at 2-2.
I hope I'm wrong about Silva winning. An upset would be beautiful!

It is insane to watch I just don't understand it was sat watching with my sister and those punches didn't even look powerful but he is so damn accurate. With both knockdowns Okami is throwing first but Silva sees it coming and throws a shorter punch quicker and just knocks him down.
They said he has only been past the 2nd round 4 times? They weren't wrong when saying the first round is all about summing up the opposition and then 2nd round engaging when you know their movements and little habits.
It is just mind boggling how someone is so damn good and makes it look THAT easy because he never looks flustered, under pressure or in that much trouble.
Rest of the card was okay not great, the Pearson was decent enough.
Rua doing what he did to Lyoto, Forrest looked drunk! His kicks looked like he was going to fall over after everyone, didn't look comfortable and very nervous. Mind you his wife is about to have a kid like any second now so I guess that might play on your mind?

Exactly. Re-match for the new-improved Strikeforce champ.
I can see that being Andersons next match up.

Silva is amazing, he seems to see people moving in slow motion. An absolute legend!
I'm surprised Okami didn't try and take him to the ground more, especially as he trains with Chael. It's a pity as I like Okami. Where does a fighter go from there though, you know you can't beat the champ so what's left other changing weight class.
Did you see fat Ronaldo in the crowd?
