There's already a multi-page WFA prediction thread from a while ago. But here's mine again (probably different than before, I'm writing them now just off the top of my head):
Rampage over Lindland via TKO. Don't be surprised if Lindland pulls off the upset though. I know I won't be.
Bas over Kimo via KO. Bas could also pull off a submission. The only way it goes the distance is if Kimo just takes Bas down and lays on him and wins a boring decision.
Waterman over Rodriguez via Decision. A boring fight most likely. Rodriguez could pull off a submission though.
Lyoto over Tiger via KO. I'm looking forward to finally seeing Lyoto, and don't know what to expect from him. I know he's got great striking, and I'm pretty sure he's supposed to be awesome at submissions as well. Tiger is well rounded, but Lyoto is supposed to be better at everything.
Salaverry over Santore via Submission. Should be an easy fight for Salaverry, although Santore is a pretty good wrestler.
Mayhem over Sincaid via Submission. Easiest fight of the night to pick.
McCullough over Sarmiento via TKO. Hard fight to call. Odds have Razor Rob as a big favorite, but I see it being closer than the numbers suggest. Still, I can't pick against him here.
Olivieira over Eastman via Decision. Not really sure what to expect here. When Eastman is on he's good, but he seems to not perform well when on big stages, and for him this is a big stage.
Pele over Aguilar via KO. Two strikers, should be a very fun fight and an awesome U.S. return for Pele.
Top to bottom an awesome card, looking forward to seeing the PPV and equally as excited to see what the next card they put together looks like. Hopefully it's not a Strikeforce thing where they got good talent, but use basically the same guys on every show.
