UFC 94 Predictions and Preview

UFC 94 is just around the corner and we get see the rematch between two title holders: BJ Penn and Georges St Pierre.  This will be the second time the two have met inside the octagon and this time it’s even bigger as both hold titles in their respective weight divisions.  However, BJ Penn is moving up in weight to take on GSP and whether this will put him at a disadvantage or not is still unknown.

This is not the only fight on the 31st though, the fight cards also includes the following:

MAIN CARD

• Welterweight champ Georges St. Pierre vs. lightweight champ B.J. Penn (for welterweight title)
• Lyoto Machida vs. Thiago Silva
• Stephan Bonnar vs. Jon Jones
• Karo Parisyan vs. Dong Hyun Kim
• Nate Diaz vs. Clay Guida

I won’t be going over the preliminary card but one thing to think about is that Jon Fitch is on the undercard.  Is this payback for holding out on signing or is the card that packed for this event?  If you want to bet on UFC 94, you should probably familiarize yourself with the favorites and under dogs.  + means underdog.

Nate Diaz vs Clay Guida

I have to take Nate Diaz in this fight.  Call me crazy but I see Nate Diaz winning this via decision.

Karo Parisyan vs. Dong Hyun Kim

Karo Parisyan is my pick all the way on this one.  Karo via Submission round 1.

Stephan Bonnar vs. Jon Jones

Going with a gut feeling on this one and going with the underdog Jon Jones.  Jon Jones by KO round 2.

Lyoto Machida vs. Thiago Silva

This is my upset of the night here.  The odds are great for Silva on this one for a good payout.  This will be a good matchup with 2 undefeateds taking the octagon.  Thiago Silva by KO Round 2.

BJ Penn vs Georges St Pierre

While BJ’s cardio has definitely gotten better the past few fights but I don’t think he has enough stamina to go with another champion.  If BJ is going to win, he’s going to have to do it very quickly.  The longer the fight the more in favor of GSP.  GSP by KO round 3.
