They announced the final match yesterday, which I believe completes the card.

1. Kazuhiro Nakamura vs Murilo Bustamante

2. Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira vs Sergei Kharitonov

3. Fedor Emelianenko vs Naoya Ogawa

4. Kevin Randleman vs Ron Waterman

5. Mirko Cro Cop vs Alexsander Emelianenko

6. Wanderlei Silva vs Yuki Kondo

7. Nogueira/Kharitonov vs Fedor/Ogawa


Should be a kickass card.

Predictions?

Nakamura/Bustamante: Bustamante by sub, is my prediction

Nogueira/Kharitonov: Kharitonov's run is coming to an end. Nog by sub.

Fedor/Ogawa: Ogawa is gonna get a hellacious beating. Fedor by TKO.

Randleman/Waterman: Picking Waterman here. He'll have about 40 pounds on Randleman, and I don't see Randleman being able to get Waterman off of him.

Cro Cop/Alexsander: Going with Cro Cop here. Alexsander is a good fighter, but still a little green. Cro Cop will probably take his head off

Silva/Kondo: Going out on a limb here and picking Kondo. By KO. What the hell.

Tournament finals: Nog vs Fedor, I don't see Nog beating him. I really don't see anybody beating Fedor at the moment. Fedor by decision.

Man, I thought Nog was going to fight Ogawa...anyway, here's my picks

Busta by sub
Kharitonov by decision
Fedor by KO
Waterman by decision
CroCop by decision
Silva by KO

Fedor wins it all

Bustamante, sub
Nog, sub
Fedor, KO
Randleman, dec
CroCop, KO
Silva, KO
Fedor again, dec

I'm liking your picks except for Randleman vs Waterman. I don't think Waterman will win. I'm thinking that Waterman, although he does have a good amount of weight over Randleman, is just to slow paced to handle the pace that Randleman fights at. Randleman is a jumpy mother****er. I don't doubt him wining via GnP over Waterman. Randleman is just a better fighter all around IMO.

i posted this same **** on UFC, i know some of the stuff i've stated here might be fighter bashing but i'm too lazy to edit it out

Kevin Randleman vs. Ron Waterman -

Waterman

Mark Coleman vs. Mark Hunt -
Coleman by can opener ala Kerr.

Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira vs. Sergei Kharitonov -
Noguiera by sub...or dec.

Fedor Emelianenko vs. Naoya Ogawa -
Fedor by utter humilation.


Filipovic vs. Aleksander Emelianenko -
Crcop by TKO 2nd

Wanderlei Silva vs. Yuki Kondo -
I hate to say this but Silva by ref stoppage at the end of rd 1.
but Kondo is one of few in mma to K.O silva in his division....so it can be a coin toss.

Fedor vs. Noguiera -
I think the same as the last but with more respect and stalling.
Fedor by dec.

WTF, i didn't say waterman was going to win, if you mods are going to edit my post at least edit it right, wheres my elaboration of my exploits of the fighter?
i can understand the bashing of Owaga but come on..

oh yea i almost forgot the changed card
Kazuhiro Nakamura vs. Murilo Bustamante

Naka has some decent GnP but nothing to really rock an experience Busta.
Murilo by submission in the 2nd rd. Kaka lost to Nog twice, and Murillo is a CC of Nog, so it's just easy to predict this ****.
i'm dispointed not to hear Hendo/Murilo II.
Pride are a bunch of american hating ass mofos!!!!!

Look, you were "too lazy" to edit the bashing. You're lucky I was'nt feeling "too lazy" at editing your bashing and just banned you. Instead, I was "too lazy" to pick apart your post and read every little thing you typed, so I deleted whatever the **** I wanted. Act right and get treated right. Act a fool and you'll get treated like a fool. I am not your ****in babysitter.

In closing..... Welcome to Global MMA.

I like the way you think young man. I agree with everything you said....sort of...I want Nog to win really bad, but I have a sinking suspicion that Fedor is going to eek out another decision over a fight that will be much closer than their first meeting.

After Nog gets passes Sergei, I dont think he will have much to put up against a fresher Fedor....

gay, no need to get your ****ing panties all twisted up, fool.
understandable, i should've edited myself, the only bashing i did was to Ogawa.....which i strongly feel is an insult to say he's a fighter, and no thats not a bashing...just my honest ****ing opinion and i was hoping you all were going to allow me to get a way with that sense i assume you all were mma vets that would've agreed with my opinion.
the rest had no bashing, fool.
i'm at least allowed to say what i like to see happen to a fighter without insult them?

Kevin Randleman vs. Ron Waterman -

Waterman is stronger due to his size, which is the only advantage he has over Kev.
Waterman can and has the power to take Kev down....that's if Kev falls to his wrestling instinct and tries grappling with him instead of sticking and moving which is the best idea, sticking and moving that is. Once down Kev is in danger, which is being caught in a H20mans **** strong keylock. Kev has proven he can be caught in a submission by fighters weaker than him in Fedor....so if Ron can exploit that, Kevs weakness which is being on his back, then it's Ron all the way, baby.
But Kev should stick and move and tire Ron to a tko.
I’m picking the monster. 5 mins 1st rd.

Mark Coleman vs. Mark Hunt -
Coleman has no business standing up with Hunt.
Regardless of Hunt's sprawl, Coleman should put Hunt on his back, once there open Hunt up with some classic GnP to a can opener/neck crank.

Coleman by can opener ala Kerr.

Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira vs. Sergei Kharitonov -
Stand up i actually think Nog has really no raw power behind his fists, while Sergie does, other than that the skills are about the same.

Sergei has better judo and wrestling than Nog.
Nog has proven he can be taken by smaller fighters and judo thrown by lesser japanese grapplers when compared to him.

Nogs submissions....well we all know he's the master at that ****, but Sergie i'm sure has been working on this already excellent submission more then ever, obviously.
If the fight becomes a grappling bout, then we'll see reversals, nasty GnP and sub attempts.

Noguiera by sub...or dec.

Fedor Emelianenko vs. Naoya Ogawa -

Fedor by utter humilation.
*Edits details

Filipovic vs. Aleksander Emelianenko -
Crocop should stick and move like with Sapp.
He can't brawl with Alex imo.
Alex i think won't touch Crocop with his wrestling, Crocop is too slick for that.
Crocop should chop the giant down with low kicks and when he gets tried just head hunt with flurries of punches.
Crcop by TKO 2nd

Wanderlei Silva vs. Yuki Kondo -
wow just ****ing simply wow.
the fight i've been ****ing waiting to see for a long time even before both were on the top ten.
Silva is stronger than Kondo, Kondo has better submissions than Silva, but Silva has better wrestling.
Silva gets caught with middle kicks alot, Kondo can exploit that...keep throwing kicks to the mid section til Silva opens and then land that trademark Flying Knee. Silva likes throwing wild flurries til he sees his victims guarding up...thats when he begins to clinch and knee.
Kondo must keep his distance from Silvas Flurries and calculate when to strike...but it must be done fast and accurate before Silva is all on his face. Silva doesn't have accuracy like Kondo imo but for sure has more fire power.
I hate to say this but Silva by ref stoppage at the end of rd 1.
but Kondo is one of few in mma to K.O silva in his division....so it can be a coin toss.

Fedor vs. Noguiera -
I think the same as the last but with more respect and stalling.
Fedor by dec.

i'm at least allowed to say what i like to see happen to a fighter without insult them?

Absolutely. Now come over here and give me a big ol' hug, sweet stuff. You hurt my feelings. I'd appreciate it if next time you did'nt yell so loud.

Kharitonov by sub? You really think he can submit Nogueira? I've got some serious doubts about that.

I don't think Coleman/Hunt is gonna be on the card.


I checked all the sites and I don't see any mention of Coleman/Hunt.

Anyone know what's going on?

2. Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira vs Sergei Kharitonov- As much as I like Kharitonov, I don't see how he can win, he won't sub Nog, and he won't knock him out. I see him leading the fight and Nog pulling out the sub.

3. Fedor Emelianenko vs Naoya Ogawa- Fedor

4. Kevin Randleman vs Ron Waterman- Monster

5. Mirko Cro Cop vs Alexsander Emelianenko- Cro Cop but I've got a bad feeling about this fight.
