From over at MMAJunkie.com:
My picks in 60 seconds are - Shogun by a gritty tough, split decision. My only concern being if he worked enough takedown defense and work off the cage. Chael will make it a grinder to be sure.
Alistair by first round KO b/c he won't wait to fade like he did against Bigfoot, and b/c Travis Browne grew a big beard and I recall reading something psychological about guys who suddenly grow a beard before a big fight.
Faber b/c he beats all mid-level guys but loses in title shots.
Matt Brown by grinding unanimous decision.
Uriah Hall by headkick KO in first round.
Joe Lauzon by submission b/c I love watching that guy fight.
Brad Pickett by unanimous decision. McGregor b/c the hype train must roll on!
Brandao b/c he's slowly maturing as a fighter rather than blowing his load like the Tazmanian devil.
Cole Miller b/c I hate watching Gamburyan fight.
Nijem b/c he had a respectable win streak there for a hot second.
