UFC UFN 21 picks and thoughts

Wed night. Free on Spike Tv.

One of my favorite sayings, "Live and Free."

So here is the televised card:

Kenny Florian (156) vs. Takanori Gomi (155) 
Roy Nelson (263) vs. Stefan Struve (248)
Nate Quarry (186) vs. Jorge Rivera (186)
Ross Pearson (156) vs. Dennis Siver (156)


My picks to win are on the left side.


Here is the problem. Kenny flo flo is a top 155 fighter. But he has lost two shots at the belt. What can he do to get a third, and why would it turn out different? So now Kenny is the 155 version of Rich Franklin. Franklin was the second best fighter at 185. He beat everybody except lost both title shots against anderson the spider silva. Rich has moved up to 205. What can kenny do?


Roy Nelson better show that he can do more than lay on people and beat them by taking out their air. Like a big Jon Fitch, he might get a good win record with a bunch of fights of laying down and hugging out a decision.


Nate Quarry is the most interesting fighter in the pack. He could be great. He is really really close. I'd love to see him make that leap to top elite fighter.


Ross vs siver: I pick Ross but need to see more of both before I could even begin to care about these guys at the 155 class.


But Live and free, so what more do you want.
