Basically what I get out of this card is:
-They're trying to pump the German fighters. That being said, Sobotta is basically being handed his walking papers so Sadollah can get a win.
-Jorge Rivera vs. Alessio Sakara. Woohoo!
-I have no idea how to actually spell that Polish guy's name. Whenever I have to use it I haphazardly type it in to google and copy and past whatever correctional spelling comes up.
-I fully expect Okami to beat Marquardt. He's a big strong wrestler (Marquardt has trouble with those, recall UFC 109). On top of that, Okami has been submitted once, in 2003, and never finished due to strikes. Marquardt couldn't submit Chael Sonnen, who was hanging out in his guard for 15 minutes. Throw in that Nate had a relatively short training camp following the Paul Harris fight, and you've got yourself a recipe for Okami by grapplef***.

/Rant.

Okami is just better, it took him a while to adjust when he came to the UFC but he's in tip top form right now and hes awesome, I fully expect him to beat Marquart....and then beat Silva if he gets the chance.....

This is a #1 contender's match if I'm not sorely, sorely mistaken.

Man, Nick Osipczak got robbed. He was in la-la land for the better part of the third round, but I just don't see how see how you can give Ludwig either of the first two rounds.
