Its Kenny “worst nickname in mma” Florian time.  BJ is way too distracted, all this new stuff about how he believes that GSP is on steroids.  Grow up, K-Flo is your oponent, not Rush St. Pierre.  Kenny’s fighting good right now, and I would look for him to pull off the upset.  As usual with BJ, no cardio etc still applies, and I know Kenny can go the 5 rounds if necessary.  At +190 I’d take Florian.

Silva vs Griffin is a tough one, even though it shouldn’t be.  Is Anderson still interested in fighting, lets hope so.  Should be a unanimous decision win by Anderson “Spider” Silva, I can’t see Forrest pulling off an upset against a normal Spider, just a bored one.

I’d hate to take Sadollah but I don’t really know Hendricks.

I like Almeida over Grove, Grove is so mistake prone, Ricardo should able to submit him rather easily.

And Josh Neer over Kurt Pellegrino in a slugfest.

For the undercard I like: McCrory, Riddle, Sotiroupolus, Villefort, Leites, Nelson.
