I'm gonna say Wandy takes his fight, although I do want to see Chuck be more impressive.
GSP will probably take his too, but likewise, I want Matt to give a good performance.
When can we bet on these?

Wand Vs Chuck
II think that wandy vs chuck is not going to be as good as every one thinks.both are coming from 2 losses....if i had to give an edge it will be to wandy.....in my opinion the fight will end in a decision.....watch.

I worry about Wandy not being able to use kicks on the ground. Those Pride rules really helped his game. I heard that Wandy trains with Couture now, so I expect Wandy to take it home against Lidell. I expect a knockout.
I don't know what to think about Hughes vs. GSP!!! I want Hughes to win, but I think GSP is a much bigger threat to Hughes than Serra is. I'm speaking stylewise. I don't like Serra, but he finished GSP fair and square as far as I saw. I still don't think that Serra's necessarily the "better fighter", but I think his style throws GSP off, where as I think Hughes wouldn't have a problem with Serra's style of fighting. Serra's a tough mamma jamma, but he's no Matt Hughes.
And you know what they say, anyway... You're not a real champion until you defend your title for the first time.
So who knows...

yeah i don't know anything about what type of condition wanderlei is going to be in for this fight, but chucks going to have to step his game up from his last couple of fights. even from the tito fight, cause trust me silva is no tito ortiz. i think everyone would agree on that. with all that being said i really like wanderlei in this fight but it is an almost must win for chuck. dana white loves to just toss the washed up fighters to the side, and although a loss wouldn't mean chuck is still a big draw it would put the ufc in a predicament of what to do with chuck. i mean that would have to really knock him down in title contention.

If Chuck loses, then I don't know what they're going to do with him. Maybe fight some middle-ground LHW's? Retirement is the only thing I can really think of, or a try at HW.

Chuck, unfortunately, would have the same problems as everybody else with that Sylvia fellow. The healthy one, that is.

i like chuck and wandy we all know that they are past their primes but they can still beat good bunch of top 10 lhw fighters. wandy's performance in the octagon isnt that good so i think chuck takes it.
i think machida wins this as well... I wont be surprise if he would ko soko..

I read someone on one of these posts say that Silva wont do as well due to the drug testing policy in the UFC. Has that been an issue with him in the past? Or is that dude who posted that just a hater? I often wonder about many of these guys because they look like actors from the movie 300. There is no effective way to test for HGH yet so it is a possibility that many of these guys are taking it. Look at Sherk and Gracie. Well, not exactly the same, those idiots took something that stays in your body for up to a year, nandrolone. Pretty stupid......

I don't think the PRIDE guys look more ripped than the UFC guys, more the other way around. And I don't think Wanderlei's body looks unnatural. Of course that doesn't mean it's impossible that he's ever roided.
