UFC 127 Full Preview with Picks

When I first looks at this card I wasnt sure what to think, but every day it looks better. I have some nice action on todays card, with some nice props. Here are my picks for every televised fight.

Blackedge vs Perosh
Dont know too much about either fighter here. They both are towards the bottom of their weight class, but Perosh is highly motivated for his first UFC win. I like the value in this pick.
Perosh (+160)- Knockout

Reinhardt vs Zhang
Zhang has a lot of experience vs a lot of bad figthers. Reinhardt might be older but the drop to 145 should really help him. This fight should be a pick em so ill take the big dog.
Reinhardt (+220)- Submission 

Fukuda vs Ring
This is a bit of a strange match up due to the status of Ring. He hasnt fought in a couple years, and this will be his first UFC fight. He blew out his knee during TUF, but was able to beat the winner Court McGee before the injury. I just think the experienced Fukuda will be able to control the fight after Rings long layoff.
Fukuda (-115)- Dec

Gustafsson vs Te Huna
Not much to say here. Te Huna is not a very good fighter, and Gustafsson's only loss was to the up and coming Phil Davis. Look for a quick easy knockout in this win.
Gustafsson (-315)- KO

Pearson vs Fisher
This is going to be a blood bath. Both of these guys like to stand and bang. I dont see this one going to the ground very often at all. Pearson is the better stand up fighter and has been great since his arrival at the UFC. He also beat Siver in a very lopsided victory. Fisher would have one this 5 years ago, but he is getting old.
Pearson (-175)- Dec

Lytle vs Ebersole
Ebersole is stepping in for Condit, who had to withdraw because of injury. That would have been a brawl, and now its going to be very one sided. Lytle who is a former boxer will pound Ebersole throughout this entire fight. I see a brutal knockout coming from Chris Lights Out Lytle.
Lytle (-275)- KO

Carmozzi vs Noke
This line opened pretty close to even, and then the entire world beat on Noke to win this one. I see Noke dominating this fight, i think it will end in the 2nd round. Im not sure if he will pound him and submit...or just knock him out.
Noke (-200)- KO

Siver vs G-Sot
All siver can do is kick people in the liver. G Sot is one of the best in the world on the ground, and will take Siver down at will. In my opinion Siver doesnt even deserve this fight as Soto is on his way to a title shot. Soto will add to his submission total, and easily take this one.
Sotoropolis ( -315)- Sub

Bisbing vs Rivera
These guys really fucking hate each other. This is the most pre fight shit talking i have seen in a while. Though i do hate Bisbing, im not sure Rivera will be able to hang with him. This will however be an all out war and will end in a knockout.
Bisbing (-300)- TKO

Penn vs Fitch
Fitch is amazing on the ground, and can control just about anyone. He also will be about 20 pounds heavier than BJ when the fight starts. The reason i like Penn in this one is because he has great takedown defense and can neutralize Fitch. Penn should be able to land some heavy punches in this one, and control the stand up. I think Penn has great value in this fight.
Penn (+175)- Dec

Fight of the Night- Pearson vs Fisher (+400)
KO of the Night- Lytle (+2100)
Quickest KO- Gustafsson (+450)
Sub of the Night- G-Sot (+450)
