Make your UFC 101 predictions here.
Come on everyone, let's get some interaction going on here. What are everyone's UFC 101 picks? Gabe will we have to wait until Sherdog's "Pros Pick" column comes out or will you write yours now? My predictions:
B.J. Penn vs Kenny Florian Penn
Anderson Silva vs Forrest Griffin Griffin
Amir Sadollah vs Johnny Hendricks Sadollah
Kendall Grove vs Ricardo Almeida Undecided
Josh Neer vs Kurt Pellegrino Pellegrino
Shane Nelson vs Aaron Riley Nelson
Tamdan McCrory vs John Howard Undecided
Thales Leites vs Alessio Sakara Leites
Matt Riddle vs Dan Cramer Riddle
Jesse Lennox vs Danillo Villefort Lennox I remember watching IFL when Lennox got kneebarred by Emil Bussade, I don't think it's good that he was in so much pain, but just the expression and noise Lennox made when he was submitted by the kneebar was very funny to me. Regardless he was winning the fight up to that point and I think he can beat Villefort.
George Sotiropoulos vs George Roop Sotiropoulos
B.J. Penn vs Kenny Florian Penn
Anderson Silva vs Forrest Griffin Griffin
Amir Sadollah vs Johnny Hendricks Sadollah
Kendall Grove vs Ricardo Almeida Undecided
Josh Neer vs Kurt Pellegrino Pellegrino
Shane Nelson vs Aaron Riley Nelson
Tamdan McCrory vs John Howard Undecided
Thales Leites vs Alessio Sakara Leites
Matt Riddle vs Dan Cramer Riddle

Thanks for sharing your picks Gabe and Ann.
I'm leaning towards Almeida too now. I think Almeida has the definite advantage on the ground, and on the feet I think they're even. Grove may have the longer reach but that's negated by his weak chin, and Almeida's striking seemed good in his last fight with Matt Horwich and his cardio seemed to have improved.
A lot of actual fighters I talk to are picking Hendricks. I know he has good wrestling credentials and it's Amir's first time at 170, but my logic is that the UFC and Joe SIlva want to build up Sadollah so I don't think they'd match him up with someone they thought he could lose against.
Neer vs Pellegrino I keep wavering back and forth on. I can see Neer submitting him but I know Pellegrino has been training with Kenny Florian and Mark Dellegrotte for this fight so I can see him TKOing Neer or taking a decision because of his improved and superior striking.
