Quick UFC 204 Picks

UFC Middleweight Championship Michael Bisping (c) vs. Dan Henderson- We all know the back story here. Even all these after UFC 100 Hendo retains that power. Why most think of the H-Bomb right you can't sleep on his lead hook and well UFC 199 he showed he generate good power in an elbow strike. Now UFC 100 Bisping people often forget was still a young raw fighter. It was after that fight many of his trademarks his faints and footwork really developed. Why Bisping doesn't have the rep as a big puncher he has shown good power in his last two fights. Henderson has a wrestling advantage but really doesn't wrestle and again Bisping is a much better fighter. Why there is always the risk of raw emotion and him getting sloppy I am going with Bisping in this fight. His footwork should do enough to make Henderson miss early on and tire out. The longer it goes bigger advantage to The Count.

Gegard Mousasi vs. Vitor Belfort- Two of the most experienced fighters in the UFC colloid. Since TRT was banned Belfort hasn't looked good. He has two fairly one sided losses his lone win coming over Dan Henderson. Mouusasi has a habit of under perfoming at times.. Belfort has the reputation as a KO puncher but often if he doesn't get it early he won't get it all. Mousasi is a very good striker in his own right and is much more technical. Belfrot has a BJJ black belt but only rarely goes to the ground. Mousasi is no slouch on the ground even getting 13 career submission wins. I am going with Mousasi to win this fight. Again longer it goes the more better it is for Mousasi.

Ovince Saint Preux vs. Jimi Manuwa- Both men have been in the UFC for a while. They have some good highlight reel wins but both lack that big win that makes you a true contender. Both are pretty good strikers and have most of there wins via KO. OSP is more awkward often letting using his athleticism make up for holes in his game. OSP has more submission but again seems use raw power to make up for lack of technique in his game. But we shouldn't sleep on Manuwa his lone losses are to Gustoffson and Johnson IE the 205 elite. I think is power might shock OSP so give me Manuwa for the W.
