I think Evans is going to take Griffin. I like Griffin and he should enjoy a significant reach advantage, but Evans proved himself in UFC 88 by turning Chuck Liddell into a wet bag of crap. I didn't think much of him prior to that fight (despite his record), but that was a perfect punch. None of Liddell's previous losses had been as humbling as that knockout.

Wanderlei Silva is one of my favorite fighters in all of professional MMA. I hope he takes Jackson for a third time. He had lost three consecutive fights before coming back to destroy Keith Jardine, proving he still has it in him. Has he ever won a title in UFC? Defeating Jackson again may put him in line for a shot at light heavyweight. I think both Silva and Jackson are both capable of taking Evans.

Even though Cheick Kongo lost to Heath Herring earlier this year, I still think the guy has potential. A lot of people think he may be the answer to a lackluster heavyweight class, and I'd like to see him fight Lesnar.

Dean Lister is fighting on this card. Anyone else think he looks like the retarded Kryptonian from Superman II?

Griffin in a desicion
Nogueira in the 3rd by submission
Wanderlei in a 2nd round knockout

Dunno much about Al-Turk, so it's hard to say. Kongo has been inconsistent his time in the UFC, so that one can go either way.

CB Dolloway hasn't proven much of shit since getting his ass beatin by Saddollah, but they're giving him a nobody, so I'll say Dolloway in the second round.

Yushin Okami will beat Lister, though it's on the undercard, so unless it's a fucking great fight nobody will see it.

Thats pretty much the way I see it happening too. I think Nogueira might end it a little sooner but otherwise that looks about right.

There's a slight error in your list

Wanderlei Silva vs. Quinton Jackson
Cheick Congo vs. Mustapha Al-Turk

[Corey]

UFC.com shows it correct. Also, Cheick Congo is listed at 240, pushing him well above the light heavyweight division for a fight with Silva.

Werd. You were right though. Silva would beat Al-Turk.

[OneSickPsycho]

Griffin
Nogueira
Silva

Honestly, I'm most excited about the Silva/Jackson fight, though there are some really, really good matches on this card.
