The great month of MMA continues with Ultimate Fight Night 21 as well as the premiere of The Ultimate Fighter 11: Liddell v Ortiz. Takanori Gomi aka The Fireball Kid was the last Lightweight Champion for Pride and makes his Octogon debut against the always exciting Kenny Florian. I have always been a Gomi fan from his Pride days, simply because he’s had exciting fights. Here are my picks for the main card:
Main Card
- Lightweight bout: Kenny Florian vs Takanori Gomi – I never take Florian lightly, and even though I like Gomi his weight cut looked tough and I don’t know how he will adjust to the cage. Ken Flo wins
- Heavyweight bout: Roy Nelson vs Stefan Struve – Struve wants to stand with Nelson and I am sure Roy will gladly do so. I see Roy taking it to the ground and smothering him. Big Country is taking this one.
- Middleweight bout: Nate Quarry vs. Jorge Rivera – I like both fighters and Quarry seems ready to go to war. I am gonna go with Rivera though because I am seeing an upset. Rivera Wins.
- Lightweight bout: Ross Pearson vs. Dennis Siver- Ross Pearson made a fan with his last UFC performance and I think he’s going to continue running through lightweights. Pearson Wins.
