Ultimate Fighter Results
UCF presented The Ultimate Fighter finale last night on SPIKE. Let’s look at the results and my predictions…
Darrill “The Boss” Schoonover vs James “The Hammer” McSweeney. My prediction: Schoonover. The Result: McSweeny via 3rd round stoppage making me 0-1 for the night.
Marcus “Big Baby” Jones vs Matt Mitrione. My prediction: Mitrione. The result: Mitirone by brutal 2nd round KO taking me to 1-1.
Frank “The Answer” Edgar vs Matt Veach. My prediction: Edgar. The result: Edgar via 2nd round choke submission moving me to 2-1 for the night.
Kimbo Slice vs Huston “The Assassin” Alexander. My prediction: Alexander. The result: Kimbo wins by decision in a very surprising fight taking me to 2-2. // Huston had a game plan to turn what everyone thought would be a slugfest in to a strategic battle. Huston circled and kicked at Kimbo, who kept his composure and picked his shots. Kimbo brutally slammed Huston to the mat on more than one occasion [after a boring first round]. Kimbo also worked for submisions! Kimbo deserved the win and proved that he is taking MMA seriously.
Matt “The Hammer” Hamill vs Jon “Bones” Jones. My prediction: Hamill. The result: Hamill won via DQ after Jones hit him with illegal blows [straight elbows to the face while Hamill was on the mat] which moved me to 3-2 for the night. // Jon “The Bones” Jones is no joke. This kid dominated Hamill from the opening bell. Hamill was hurt repeatedly and the fight could have been stopped earlier. I’ll take the win and so will Hamill, but the truth is Jones should have won and pretty easily.
Roy “Big Country” Nelson vs Brendan “The Hybrid” Schaub. My prediction: Schaub The result: Nelson via first round KO making me 3-3 for the night.
Overall a break even night of predictions for a fun night of fights.
