PREDICTION FOR STRIKEFORCE 2-12-11:

First off let me say that Strikeforce sucks balls at marketing and advertising. If it wasn't for a tiny little pop up on Sherdog, I would have not even known this card was this Saturday.

Let's get the picks rolling here, trplsec hasn't started the thread so here is is. Sorry some pics are missing,I did the best I could. This is all of the main card, which I assume is all we will be picking. Good Luck.

This should be fun to watch.

Except maybe Arshotsky and Khartinov.

 

Thanks Z.. And those are the only fights worth picking.

I love the reserve bouts for the tournament. And believe it or not, Silva-Fedor is a great match up.

 

Wasn't trying to step on your toes brotha, just wanted to get it up as soon as possible so everyone has a chance to get the picks in. I seriously almost forgot about this card. There is zero hype. Sherdog used to go nuts when Fedor fought, not this time.

If you're ever busy or just need a hand with anything for this contest let me know, I'm always willing to help.

 

Can a mod edit the thread title to include something about this being part of the prediction contest and also add the date of this card, which is this Saturday 2/12

Maybe sticky it too?

 

This won't be much of a fight is Silva don't get him down. The speed difference is ridiculous.

 

What's not fun about that fight? Someone's getting knocked the fuck out, that's fun. ::

 

Maybe, or Arshotsky could stand around timid as usual, Fatarnov gasses after throwing 12 punches, and then we get a staring contest for 15 minutes.

Either that or AA takes him down and grapples with him, and wins. Which I wager will happen.

 

Hurry up and get your picks in Newbraski I don't want you stealing mine again...

 

LOL I stole yours but beat you for the week? That makes a lot of sense. That little contest between you and TLC would convince anyone to stay the fuck away from your sorry ass picks. :atu:

 

You stole my picks except changed the rounds to throw people off (got lucky in predicting the rounds better)

Having said that make your damn picks already....I'm in second place so don't question my predicting skills. After this strikeforce event I will be in the lead so enjoy your first place for another couple of days

p.s

MAKE YOUR DAMN PICKS!

 

anyone going to this event? i'm going, but not really looking forward to much aside from the main event.

 

I will be in the lead if you guys don't start making picks! ::

I'm gonna have to watch footage of the other fighters to give my picks.

 

Griggs is the dude who just beat up Lashley. The guy he's fighting is a smallish 220lbs wrestler with not much in the way of stand up.

If that helps you at all.

 

Don't forget though.
gas tank played a huge part in that win.

 

Yes it did, but so did Griggs toughness.
