Predictions for UFC 111 "Ultimate Brit Not Ready"

UFC 111 is in Newark this weekend, and the headlining bout is a welterweight championship contest between Georges St. Pierre and some Brit who is not ready.  Seriously, Dan Hardy is not ready.  How not ready is he?  Hardy is so not ready, he showed up at Matt Serra’s gym last week to learn about “this whole jiu-jitsu thing I been hearing so much about.”  He’s so not ready, Las Vegas sportbooks are already laying down odds that St. Pierre will defeat Anderson Silva.  He’s so not ready, right this very minute Joe Rogan is standing in the Octagon in a darkened Prudential Center practicing the post-fight questions he’s going to ask the St. Pierre.  And St. Pierre is standing there with him, practicing his English.  So... predictions!

    • Props to Ben Saunders for stepping up to face Jon Fitch at the last minute.  Also, props to him for not caring about dying.
    • Kurt Pellegrino via super-cool Batman utility belt, which includes a Batarang, a grappling hook and a can of shark repellant.
    • Jim Miller is going to beat Mark Bocek so bad, the Canadian Mounties aren’t going to allow Bocek back across the border.
    • Nate Diaz and Ricardo Almeida are going to defeat Rory Markham and Matt Brown with submissions.  Or they won’t.  I don’t know.
    • Wouldn’t it be funny if Shane Carwin knocked out Frank Mir?
    • Did I mention Dan Hardy isn’t ready?

nice write up! I've bookmarked your site for future post!! keep em coming

honestly cant wait for GSP to shut up Dan Hardy.. Dan Hardy is NO competition for GSP … Thiago Alves is a better competitor than Dan Hardy and Alves got his pounded by GSP with a pulled groin. Dan Hardy is a JOKE!!

In depth preview for UFC 111 with predictions, pictures and of course octagon girls.

Mir/Carwin Hardy/GSP is the best card we have seen since UFC 100 (the
last time GSP fought) and Hardy is talking lots of trash.
GSP is a heavy favourite and by all means should dominate YET again..
Carwin and Mir is gonna be ridiculous!! Think Carwin will knock him out? Hard to say, Mir has looked so much better and dominated Kongo but none of Carwins fights have went past 2:30 of round 1.. gonna be amazing!!
