UFC 90

Here are my picks for UFC 90 in Chicago on the 25th. I have high hopes for this one, Anderson Silva never fails to entertain. Plus there are some fantastic LW matchups on this card.

Anderson Silva over Patrick Cote by T/KO. Easy money.
Rich Clementi over Gray Maynard by submission.
Sean Sherk over Tyson Griffin by decision. This one is gonna be fireworks, guaranteed.
Thales Leites over Drew McFedries by sub. I don’t know what Thales’ wrestling game is like, but I’m counting on him to take it down.
Josh Koscheck over Thiago Alves by decision. This one was hard to pick, but I think Koscheck is going to take him down and wear him out with GnP from guard. He’s usually got a smart game plan, and he has to know cardio is Alves’ weakness. If he stands with Thiago, I think he’ll get fucked up.

I’m really rooting for Hermes Franca over Marcus Aurelio. BJJ Credentials and historical cardio ability points to Maximus winning a decision, however. Hope I’m wrong.

I’ll be putting some money on Anderson, and probably on Clementi as well. Also considering putting some on Couture over Lesnar. I keep going back and forth on this one. Too risky? Probably.

Some people have made contraptions that are so simple, fast and effective it makes me feel like an idiot for not seeing it could be done that way. Glad I’m not an engineer.
