About to head out to a grappling tournament, so this is going to be ultra short.
"Big" Ben Rothwell vs Mark "The Super Samoan" Hunt
heavyweight
Hunt is simply over matched. Rothwell is not as good of a striker, but once on his back, Hunt has zero submission defense, and Rothwell will exploit that to the fullest.
Rothwell via submission, Rd. 2
Nate Diaz vs Takanori "The Fireball Kid" Gomi
lightweight
Not even close to being the fighter he used to be, Gomi will try to turn this into a slugfest, but Diaz is too smart for that. Diaz will eventually get this fight to the ground, and utilize his superior jiu jitsu to work a submission, and possibly hand Gomi his walking papers.
Diaz via submission, Rd. 3
Travis "Hapa" Browne vs Rob "the Bear" Broughton
heavyweight
Fighters from England not named Bisping have not done too well as of late, and this will be no different. Browne is a beast, and will just outclass Broughton on the feet on the way to an early stoppage.
Browne via TKO, Rd. 1
Matt Hughes vs. Josh Koscheck
welterweight
Hughes is one of the best welterweights of all time, but Koscheck is younger, faster, a better striker, and might be stronger. Hughes should be able to keep his faculties about him for a bit, but Koscheck finds a home for one of those overhand rights and ends this fight in a big way in the second.
Koscheck via KO, Rd. 2
LIGHTHEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
Champion Jon "Bones" Jones vs Quinton Rampage Jackson
I badly want to believe that Rampage can win this fight, and he very well could, but I don't think he will. Jones is simply better than Rampage, and though he wont likely finish the fight, this will be anything but a close one.
Jones by Unanimous Decision.
