UFC 82 was one of the better shows in recent memory, the aired version of the card only had two decisions, but it had three defining finishes. Lets see how we did on our predictions: Correct picks are in white, incorrect in orange.
Anderson Silva def. Dan Henderson by Submission (Rear Naked Choke) at 4:52, R2
Heath Herring def. Cheick Kongo by Split Decision, R3
Chris Leben def. Alessio Sakara by TKO (Strikes) at 3:16, R1
Yushin Okami def. Evan Tanner by KO (Knee) at 3:00, R2
Jon Fitch def. Chris Wilson by Unanimous Decision, R3
Andrei Arlovski def. Jake O'Brien by TKO (Strikes) at 4:17, R2
Luigi Fioravanti def. Luke Cummo by Unanimous Decision, R3
Josh Koscheck def. Dustin Hazelett by TKO (Strikes) at 1:24, R2
Diego Sanchez def. David Bielkheden by Submission (Punches from Mount) at 4:43, R1
Jorge Gurgel def. John Halverson by Unanimous Decision, R3
Overall went 5-5, which isnt an impressive showing, however i did pick a few upsets. I was figuring on Gurgel going to a decision but not winning, Evan Tanner shaking off some ring rust and Kongo standing up and banging out a victory over Herring. |
