i didnt say wand because of the fujita fight. i had him picked since fedor dropped out and i was arguing with people about it. I think nog and him will be a great final. Dont forget that wand has a BB in BJJ

I wasn't referring to everyone, just saying how some have been swayed because of it and i know it's true because those numbers wouldn't look that way with Nog and Mirko on there.

Yea Silva has a BB in BJJ, BUT IMHO, i think the BTT black belts are a step above the rest, not all BB are equals.

sounds kind of familiar to me being pissed that everyone jumped on silva after he beat leben. That is how i felt about that subject. wand has a good chance to take it all and in my eyes solitify himself as the p4p second best behind fedor.

I agree. Barnett is my pic. Nog runner up. I want crocop to win, but cant see him keeping it on the feet long enough to ko Barnett or Nog. Silva will have trouble from here on out (i think) but he wont be walked over by anyone. He and crocop will likely be 'cancelled out" by takedowns. Silva is underrated on the ground, but I dont see him submitting anyone here.

I picked Nog, because that is my original pick and I will stick with it. I want Barnett to win though. Like Alvin, I didn't have Wand KOing the Iron Head, but I did pick him to win that fight. Anything can happen in this tourney, and wouldn't be shocked if any of these guys won it all. What kind of prize is fighting Fedor though? lol
