Co-Host Meghan Wonder’s UFC 141 Picks
Brock Lesnar vs. Alistair Overeem
This is a battle between two VERY VERY large athletic men. The Reem has the obvious edge with a TOOOOON more MMA experience over a looooong list of legends. Lesnar has a crazy wrestling background and that giant tattoo on his belly. I believe there is power in that sword. That being said…. Overeem by Horse Kick.
Nate Diaz vs. Donald Cerrone
Anyone who ever wondered what would happen if a thug and a cowboy got locked in a small space together will finally get their question answered! As much as I LOOOVE to watch Diaz work his jiu jitsu magic, I want to see these two stand and BANG! The Fans win this fight.
Jon Fitch vs. Johny Hendricks
Wrasslin’ over here Wrasslin’ over there Wrasslin’ Wrasslin’ everywhere. I’m pretty sure at some point I’ll be wishing this was in a barbed-wire octagon or that someone would toss a table, ladder or chair in with these two. Fitch by Turtle Domination.
*Don’t get me wrong – wrestling is a great sport on its own. High level wrestling matches can be quite exciting as points are scored and people are tossed. I think there is a lot lost in the translation of wrestling for MMA.
Vladimir Matyushenko vs. Alexander Gustafsson
I hate match ups like this one. Matyushenko is older and more experienced. Gustafsson is younger and destined to have an amazing career. These are the match ups that make you wonder who is being tested? After consulting the magic 8 ball – Undecided.
