Yeah I had a couple picks that i liked and he really stood out as one of them, another one was amir, if he works with either men on the show which he obviously will, he will be pretty damn good come his next fight I think,  |

How can there be sleepers and winners when you haven't even seen all of them?
I don't care who has fought here or there, the fact remains is you havent seen all of them. Understand? Harris fought in the IFL...wow. Steve Byrnes fought in the UFC and he's already out of the competition, by who? A guy no one on here sure as shit never heard of. Did he even have a professional fight before?Like I said, it's stupid to make predictions and sleepers when the majority of these fighters no one has heard of and the majority of people you haven't even seen fight. Wait though, "there's nothing crazy about picking winners...Steve Byrnes fought in the UFC before so we know who some of the fighters are", that throws your theory out the window.
And don't be talking to me about "looking cool, feeling special" when you were the one preaching about how Mike Swick was the future of the middleweight division. But as long as you felt special it's okay, making a bold and unusual statement that no one but maybe 3 people agreed with, were you trying to look smart then because I'm pretty sure everyone sure as shit knew Mike Swick was never the future of the middleweight division. Maybe you can take another risk or leap in saying Mike Swick is the future of the welterweight division, a much tougher weightclass in the UFC.
If anything you should feel special because you're predicting winners with only seeing 4 fights, the other 4 being clips, and 16 fighters that havent fought yet who I'm sure the majority of you never saw fight.

There can be possible winners because some guys have very high talent levels. I was pretty sure Nate Diaz or Joe Lauzon was going to win TUF 5 b4 anyone stepped into the house. Same with Serra for TUF 4 and I thought Danzig had a great chance for TUF 6. Aren't you the one who always said TUF 6 was just to make Danzig look good? Wouldn't that mean they knew he was probably going to win before he stepped in the house and fought.
Gerald Harris fighting in the IFL doesn't make him good it means I've seen him fight. The guy is 0-2 in the IFL and I don't think he will do to well and I'm pretty sure Dollaway will mess him up.
Just as knowing Steve Byrnes got beat in the UFC over a year ago by a guy who is an average WEC 185'er would rule him out in a lot of ways from being the winner.
Also I wasn't really posting on the forum much when Swick was a MW so IDK what you are talking about. I've said I thought he would be very successful at WW due to his striking.
I've also said numerous times said Swick is at best talent wise a top 10-15 WW right now.
Also being a Swick fan it's not hard to see why I say positive things about Swick because I'm partially blind when it comes to Swick. Now why you have to enter a thread and trash it because you don't think people should be picking winner yet is hard to understand. If you think it's too early than wait till you think it's the right time and post.
Actually there are some guys fighting next week who have a chance to win it Zachrich is very talented as is Creduer who's two losses are to Villasenor and Sonnen. But I think Dollaway is by far the most talented fighter on the show so I'm predicting he is going to win.
And I'm sorry if I don't need to see guys who are 5-4 and 4-5 fight each other before I decided that a guy who is 6-0 and a national wrestling quailfier is the favorite.

From the guys I have seen so far CB Dollaway looks real good. I have seen Matt Brown fight live before and he is a real badass but I dont look at him as someone who will win the show, he may get a sweet KO or something though.

LMAO at Alex De Large.
Get a hold of your life buddy, that was brutal.
Let people have their fun and don't get your panties twisted. Awful.
Dollaway or Amir for the WIN!

I train with Matt Brown at IMB Columbus (although I haven't been there for a few weeks), so I hope he wins it.
I think Dollaway will win it, but I hope Brown does.

I'm gonna go with Mike Dolce this year, he has some heavy hands and is a total lunatic. I know he's been real inconsistent in the past with flashes of briliance and then night that he should be eating hot dogs in the stands but I just feel like he's gonna pull it together for the show.
Besides, we all know he's a practitioner of "Skullcrackin "
