call me crazy, i think sonnen will bring it like he did with anderson silva, but what's jones' reach, like 81" or something like that... will be tough for sonnen. my head says jones, but my boner-for-a-good-fight-to-make-gif's says sonnen ... lol at me. sonnen during interviews admitted he thinks jones > anderson silva. he may have mentally lost the fight already, but then again, i think he has nothing to lose and will def bring it.

roy nelson by overhand right. liked kongo in the past, but he's fighting big country. who doesn't like big country? looking for fireworks from this fight. nelson has shown he has a chin in addition to ko power from his right. you know he's a black belt in bjj, so kongo doesn't want to go to the ground, think nelson will keep it standing up though.

kind of know these fighters: belcher vs bisping... think belcher will tag the speedy footwork of bisping at some point. not a huge fan of either. got no horse in this race.

the rest i really don't know well enough
