Couture...

If he put money on UFC events he'd be the richest man in the world. He has predicted upsets, and basicly every big fight.... Gonzaga - CC, Rampage - Liddell, Rampage - Henderson...

I wouldn't be suprised if he does.

Couture sure does no his stuff. The man is an animal. An anamoly. He defies mother nature, father time and logic itself. It's great.

Him and Fedor should end up being the biggest fight EVER.

I still REALLY want to see him avenge his last two losses. I accept the early losses as learning the game, rules change etc

But to be honest he picked a Jackson win for the wrong reasons. He just got lucky with that one.

He said Jackson likes to keep it standing and he thought he would succeed in that and beat him standing up. Thats not really what happened, but thats besides the point.

I think Couture beats Fedor.

I think he's the smartest and most adaptable fighter in the world.

I think he'd win a UD.

Its not beside the point. Couture said that if the fight was primarily on the ground then Hendersons westling would give him the win but if it was stand up then Jackson would win.

All Couture has done in that fight is get lucky and picked the winner in a two horse race....the law of averages says a Chimp would get the result right 50% of the time.

Would he still win the bet? Yes. That's besides the point.

The same way a chimp would win the bet......

Predicting 2 correct fights and another for the wrong reasons isn't really that impressive.
