UFC on FOX Predictions

Tonight the UFC on FOX features what should be three very good fights.  Let’s take a look at them and my predictions:

Demian Maia (15-3) vs Chris Weidman (7-0)
Thoughts: Maia is the BJJ expert and Weidman is known for his superior grapplingWeidman could be at a disadvantage since he took the fight on two weeks notice and had to drop over 30 pounds.  Still , Weidman is favored.
Prediction: Weidman scores the win.

Chael Sonnen (27-11-1) vs Michael Bisping (23-3-0)
Thoughts: This is the fight that I’m most looking to seeing.  Sonnen totally dominated Anderson Silva when they fought.  Who else do you see doing that?  The winner of this fight is supposed to get a shot at Silva and the title.  I’d love to see a Sonnen / Silva rematchSonnen is going in as a HUGE FAVORITE against Bisping.  Although I think that Bisping is under-rated, and everyone is picking Sonnen, I’ve got a crazy feeling that we may be in for a HUGE UPSET.
Prediction: Bisping in one of the biggest upsets in UFC history.

Rashad Evans (21-1-1) vs. Phil Davis (9-0)
Thoughts: Evans and Davis are both excellent wrestlers, with perhaps Davis getting the edge.  Evans has the better stand-up.  The winner of this bout should get a shot at Jon “Bones” Jones and the title.
Prediction: Evans scores the win.

Vin Diesel is Back as Riddick!

That’s Vin Diesel on the set and in character as Riddick.  I have a lot of hope that his next outing as one of our favorite anti-heroes will be on par with his introduction in Pitch Black.  (Although I have to admit if it’s at least as good as Chronicles of Riddick, I’ll still be happy.)

Mick Foley’s Countdown to Lockdown

Did you know that Mick Foley has a new blog?  Well, he does.  He calls it Countdown to Lockdown and if you’re still reading this, then you should be interested enough to check it out.

We all know that Mick’s an excellent pro wrestler, has mad mic skills, and is a best-selling author [Have a Good Day] so my guess is that his blog is going to be a blast.  [And I’d have said that even if Mick didn’t hook me up at Heroes Con.]

Movies from an Alternate Universe

I love movies.  Classics like “Drive” starring James Dean, Eva Marie Saint, Clark Gable and Spencer Tracy, or Fritz Lang’s “2001: A Space Odyssey” or Bruce Lee in “The Matrix” or Blake Lewis’ “The Hangover” with Dean Martin, Jerry Lewis, Jack Lemmon and that classic Muhammad Ali cameo!

What?  Really?  You haven’t seen them?  You can if you check out Peter Stults Movies from an Alternate Universe.
