UFC 87 Fight Picks

Here are my picks for UFC 87

Georges St. Pierre vs. Jon Fitch
GSP....Obviously!

Brock Lesnar vs. Heath Herring
This one is a little tricky....I absolutely want to see Herring take it. A few things to consider though.......When Lesnar fought Mir he actually looked like he might win, I got a little worried while watching it. So can Herring do the job? Another thing, what about Lesnars game plan? Will he come out swinging like he did with Mir? Or has he decided to be more cautious with Herring? I predicted that if his fight with Mir went to round 2, Lesnar would be gassed having used all his energy in that first round. So I may have to go with Lesnar (even though it pains me to even write it) I would love to be wrong though!!!!!

Kenny Florian vs. Roger Huerta
I believe that this fight will be one of the better fights on the card.
Going with Huerta on this one! He just needs to stay away from Florian's elbow!

Manny Gamburyan vs. Rob Emerson
Once again...I would be ecstatic if Emerson wins....however, I gotta go with Gamburyan

Jason MacDonald vs. Demian Maia
Maia all the way....can he retain his undefeated record??

Luke Cummo vs. Tamdan McCrory
Cummo! McCrory is an awesome fighter though....

Cheick Kongo Vs. Dan Evensen
Kongo

Andre Gusmao Vs. Jon Jones
Not too familiar with either but I do know that both are undefeated which means...Someones 0 has gotta go! I will say Gusmao.

Chris Wilson Vs. Steve Bruno
This is a tough pick as well... Wilson it is!

Ben Saunders Vs. Ryan Thomas
Saunders.



There you have it!
