I have two intriguing fights that I will predict. Went 1-1 last week so not too shabby for Bones at 50 percent right now.

GUIDA VS PETTIS

This is going to be a typical "Gate keeper vs Up and comer" with Clay Guida being the gate keeper. Guida is arguably the toughest S.O.B. in the UFC with unlimited cardio. That being said he lacks one major thing, talent. Anthony Pettis is a rising young star that oozes with talent. There is a saying "Hard work beats talent when talent refuses to work hard", but expect Pettis to come in top shape. It will be exciting and Guida will have his moments but Pettis has too much for Guida to handle.

PETTIS BY UNANIMOUS DEC

HERMAN VS CREDUR

When two TUF alumni compete in the Octagon it makes for an interesting fight. Ed "Short Fuse" Herman has impressive submissions. "Crazy" Tim Credur is known mainly for his muay Thai but he also known for his jiu-jitsu. As tough as Ed Herman is I tend to go with the guy with more weapons and I think Tim's striking is much more superior to Eds.

CREDUR BY UNANIMOUS DEC

I can't call Guida a gatekeeper anymore, I think he's moved up, beyond that status IMO. He's improved a lot since joining Jackson.
