Re: UFC 75
A re-iteration from my predictions a month ago.
Jackson / Hendo: A cardio battle. All Hendo has to do is survive the first 3 rounds and win one of them. He'll get the other two by default if not a KO when Jackson runs out of gas.
Jackson has around 20 lbs of muscle (haven't seen the weigh-ins yet, though) on Hendo. Should be able to push him off the takedown, and lay down some hard leather in the first few rounds.
I had predicted the fight would be pk by fight time, but since that didn't come off, it's a no play. (OK, OK, I put a tiny bet on Jackson, just cause I'm cheering for him.)
Crocop / Kongo: Kickboxer vs. Muay Thai
Both hit hard. Real hard.
Both have negligible ground skills.
Kongo has viscious clench.
Crocop has (?) clench.
Both guys can KO each other. Both guys can be KO'd.
He who scores big first wins.
at 3:1, Kongo is a STEAL.
Bisping / Hamill
Hamill only needs to do his human blanket impression for 2 rounds to pull off a victory. I think the line is pretty good, but once again, I'm putting a tiny bet on Bisping, just because I hate Hamill so much.
