Alright guys I was just looking at the fight card for UFC 117:
So Im going to give my predictions

Chael sonnen over Anderson Silva by Decision: Chael has a great ground game beating top contenders in Nate Marquardt, and Yushin Okami. I think if Chael can bring it to the ground he will be able to keep it there and do damage and he has a strong enough double-leg to get it down. Although if Silva can keep it standing it will be a long night for Sonnen unless Anderson pulls another 112. Also Silva has a good chance if he can end it early but in his last fights its been against fighters who have good BJJ or aggresive Stand up, Sonnen will be a different fighter for Anderson. What Silva needs to do is come in pick a couple strikes but do not throw kicks and stuff takedowns. Silva cannot get to aggresive or he will get taken down.

Alves over Fitch by 3 round Tko: Alves has shown that he can get off his back due to the fact that Gsp could not hold him down quite as long. Fitch will be able to take it to the ground but he will not be able to keep Alves on the ground for too long to do much damage and Alves will throw leg kicks that will weaken and double leg takedowns. Alves has the better standup and a dangerous clinch. Alves will sneak a knee in the muay thai clinch put fitch on the ground and ground him out. Alves is going to make Fitch dance his dance and he will knock him out.

Junior Dos Santos by Ko 2nd round: This one may be the toughest for me due to the fact that Roy Nelson has power and is great on the ground but Dos Santos is just a freak in the standup. Nelson will be able to take him down and it'll go to the next round but i think he'll try to stand and Dos Santos will throw a left uppercut and drop him for probably and the ref will stop the fight immediatly. Nelson needs to take him down, put his belly on top of Dos Santos and impose his will. Dana White says this will be for a shot at The winner of Brock and Cain. But i see Dos santos can beat Cain but Cain can't beat Lesnar he is just a bit to small. So Dos Santos Ko

Matt Hughes over Ricardo Almeida by Tko 3rd round: Matt will take it to the ground keep it there punish almeida. Ricardo will try to pull off submissions but Hughes is to experianced and escape and will just land some good shots form guard and the ref will stop a bit early. Not much to say here since Hughes bread and butter is the ground game and Almeida is no Henzo Gracie but Hughes is getting old and it may cost him but i don't see that happening in this bout.

Fight of the Night: Anderson Silva vs Chael Sonnen
Submission of the Night: Undercard cause no Main Card will get a Sub
Knouckout of the Night: Junior "Cigano" Dos Santos

I want to know your predictions and no Silva Nut hugging please i want to hear good insight and no explanations like Silva by KTFO because he's a beast. Also have the fight bonuses.
