Urijah Faber's UFC 100 Title Fight Picks... Can You Say GSP?
 Former WEC featherweight champ Urijah Faber's picks for the UFC 100 title fights.
Georges St. Pierre vs. Thiago Alves (Welterweight): GSP in my opinion is the much more complete fighter and is the more disciplined fighter. As far as just being a fighter and, in general, the type of guy that loves to get down and probably would be fighting once a week on the street anyways if he wasn't fighting, you gotta go with Thiago on that one. You've got a killer instinct on that guy that is really dangerous, but unless he can knock out St. Pierre, I think St. Pierre is gonna take it.
Brock Lesnar vs. Frank Mir (Heavyweight): Lesnar has been improving quite a bit. With the right training partners, he's gonna be very, vary hard to stop. But Frank Mir is crafty and this is the most dedicated he's been in the sport and working the hardest, more than he ever has in this sport. He looked the biggest, the strongest that I've seen him as well. I'm expecting a great fight. It's either gonna be Lesnar by TKO or Mir by tricky submission.Labels: Brock Lesnar, Frank Mir, Georges St. Pierre, Thiago Alves, UFC 100, Urijah Faber

Alves TKO 3rd round
Mir TKO Lesnar
Hendo spilt decision
Okami TKO 3rd round
Fitch TKO 2nd round
In my opinion the GSP Alves fight is 60/40 in favor of GSP. I also think Alves's bjj is very underrated because he prefers to stand back up and scramble to his feet, so even if GSP gets him on his back I think Alves won't take as much damage as expected. I'd go with GSP via decision.
As far as Lesnar vs Mir goes, I'd go with Mir. I think he'll have to weather the storm of Brock Lesnar a bit, and catch Brock in the later rounds in a sub or ko.
And Hendo will beat Bisping via decision.
lesnar wins george Wins Hendo wins and Jon Jones knockout of the night first round. Now show me someone who can pick winners better then me. Nobody. You want my number for future bets you will have to pay me sorry:)

Lesnar by TKO 1st round. GSP by decision. I found great prediction contest make 4 prediction and you could win $100 www.mmapunk.com
Lesnar by triangle choke in the 1st.....just kidding. I hope that roid freak gets something broken, preferrably his jaw. Sure he has the size and strength but I think Mir is just too good for him. St. Pierre will handle Alves pretty easilly as will Fitch handle the other Brazillian dude. Hendo will probably go to decision but he will beat the Brittish version of loud mouth Lesnar.
mir by sub 3rd round
gsp by decision
fitch by tko 2nd round
hendo by tko 3rd round
belcher by sub 2nd round
