    One poster was adamant that Josh Koshcheck should retire, because Diego was going to tear him apart, and therewould be nowhere for his career to go. They said he lacked any skill besides wrestling, and that he would never learn.

    If you are still around I would have huge respect if you admitted it. We all make dumb predictions; I said Thiago Silva would knockout or sub Machida.

    I predicted the way Nog would beat Couture down to the fine detail. I also called Kos/Johnson quite well. One I did get wrong was Machida SHogun, but then noone expected SHogun to become unshot overnight.

    Leites/Sakara is the most wildly inaccurate I've ever been I think. On a fairly accurate streak of calling things. Though I should have got Shogun/Machida wrong.

    I expected Liddell to bomb out Couture in their first fight.

    May have been me who said that.. I expected Kos to get beaten by Sanchez in their Pro fight.. In general, I think Kos is a piece of **** as a person, but I cant help to rethink my initial impression of him, as it's hard to believe someone who has worked so hard to not be a one dimensional fighter, can be so impressive..

    On the basis of race, or just a coincidence? :blood

    A little. Saw enough of him in the Lounge to know he's a goober and have ignored most of his posts here assuming he's 110% clueless about MMA.

    Didn't he guarantee a Rogers victory?

    Man **** happens.. i guess like they say in football any given sunday. Speaking of that there were so many upsets today. But anyways i have predicted fights where i was dead wrong.

    I thought Randy Couture was going to stomp out Brock Lesnar in impressive fashion...

    Bit of a mistake that was.
