Who are you going to be taking in this event? I know you follow the UFC, so I would like to hear who you like. Im not that much of a UFC fan.

I do not know much about Sobral, but I do know Liddell is one tough sob and should win. Bonnar gave Griffen a hell of match the first time and I think that match will go to a decision. I will only bet Bonnar because I just can't lay the wood on Liddell.

chuck will probably ko babalu again

babalu is the real deal but chuck is a real bad matchup for babalu

babalu's best chance is to take the fight to the ground and work his submission which he is very good at

problem is babalu's takedown is of B- level and chuck takedown defense is of A calibur

babalu is no match for chuck on the feet and will get ko'ed sooner or later

babalu's best chance is to press the action and work real hard for a takedown and maybe get chuck in a submission when chuck stands back up which he usually does

maybe also tire chuck out but that is very unlikely as well

chuck takes this one again (last fight vs babalu was 1st round KO)

chuck's ko on babalu was a fluke kick during a takedown attempt. chuck doesn't ko people with kicks. babalu has the best chance of any challenger thus far at beating chuck. i'm not sure if he will, but i really like his value. i'm playing small on babalu and a medium on nick diaz. can't help but root for the guy even though he's been on a losing streak. i can't see diaz doing anything but fighting for a living.

i wouldn't call that a fluke ko

chuck was a kickboxer before and has stated himself he can kick but limits it cause it lessens the chance someone can take him down assuming they see a kick coming and step in or catch it

i do agree he doesn't use them a whole lot cause with his hands he doesn't usually need them
