I like your picks but I don't think you should count out Mir

[Tracktwister]

I generally agree although I think that Couture may suprise a few people.

[Mr. Espey]

I didn't count out Mir in his last 3 fights... but he looked like crap in all 3. Out of shape and a lack luster win over Christison who is should not be bear his level and took the fight on just a few days notice. I think Hardonk will is not that great a fighter as UFC Heavyweights go... but he will still win.

Couture could surprise... but Gonzaga has all the goods to take that belt.

I can't wait to see Couture fight someone different I think that Gonzaga has made a big rep by taking out Crocop by knock-out. One guy I would like to see fight in the UFC would be Fador I think he would take the title from whoever has it at that time.
