* The reign of Anderson Silva will be over.
* Jose Aldo will be the UFC's next big thing.
* Georges St. Pierre will move up to the middleweight division for a mega-fight with either Anderson Silva or Vitor Belfort.
* Brock Lesnar will be hyped up for a big fight later in the year, which he will win, but still show signs of a suspect chin.
* Brandon Vera will be fired, leaving the "Manny Pacquiao of the UFC" moniker to my buddy, Mark Munoz.

- After beating Jake Shields in Toronto, GSP will move up and fight Middleweight at the end of the year or the first show of 2012.
- Vitor Belfort will defeat Anderson Silva.
- Cain Velasquez goes undefeated this year, establishes himself as the best Heavyweight in the world.
- Rich Franklin will retire this year, after maybe two fights, in turn be inducted to the UFC Hall of Fame at some point too.
- Nick Diaz will sign with the UFC.

[Midas]

--- Jon Jones will be crowned LHW Champion...
--- Roy Nelson will get a Heavyweight title shot...
--- Anderson Silva will retire from MMA...
--- Gray Maynard will win LW title and defend it against BJ Penn and win...
--- Fedor will lose his next fight making it two in a row...

Added bonus...

Pierre Vs Shields will be widely considered the worse fight of the year...

[Big Gay Honker]

Anderson Silva will get his clock cleaned by Vitor Belfort.
Nam Phan will stopping getting assfucked by the judges.
Cain Velasquez will lose his title.
GSP will be fed a middleweight or two, then get dickslapped by one of the premier middleweights.
Jon Jons will beat Badder, Destroy Thiago Silva, and get a title shot.  If it's against Shogan, assuming the LHW title stops whoring itself around like it has been, it will be fight of the year.

Bonus Lesnar will go ape shit on someone and destroy them.

For argument's sake...

- Ryan Bader will win the UFC Lightheavyweight belt
- GSP will beat Jake Shields inside the 5 & move up to middleweight but the fight with Anderson Silva will not happen despite Silva beating Belfort. The internet will explode with rumours of Silva ducking GSP (That's a five-for right there fuckers!)
- Cain Velasquez will hold the belt for the entire year
- Nick Diaz & Jason Miller will fight (& the build up will be fucking awesome!)
- Grey Maynard will beat Frankie Edgar (for the third time! Yeah, I said it) He will go on to dominate for the year... no-one will watch

1) Well it is safe to say that Silva is still king of the MW...
2) Still champ so I guess this one if based on point of views...
3) Well this did not happen and I do not think anyone predicted that by years end both Silva & GSP would be on the shelf.
4) He has a huge fight at the end of the year and I can see him winning this one and showing a suspect chin... We will see...
5) So close to being true until he got re-hired...

- After beating Jake Shields in Toronto, GSP will move up and fight Middleweight at the end of the year or the first show of 2012.
- Vitor Belfort will defeat Anderson Silva.
- Cain Velasquez goes undefeated this year, establishes himself as the best Heavyweight in the world.
- Rich Franklin will retire this year, after maybe two fights, in turn be inducted to the UFC Hall of Fame at some point too.
- Nick Diaz will sign with the UFC.

1) Well with GSP being on the shelf this wont happen...
2) Did not happen...
3) I honestly thought this one had the best chance of being right but Dos Santos did not agree...
4) He is still fighting however on the shelf...
5) Nice one here... Diaz is in the UFC...

--- Jon Jones will be crowned LHW Champion...
--- Roy Nelson will get a Heavyweight title shot...
--- Anderson Silva will retire from MMA...
--- Gray Maynard will win LW title and defend it against BJ Penn and win...
--- Fedor will lose his next fight making it two in a row...

Added bonus...

Pierre Vs Shields will be widely considered the worse fight of the year...

1) Very proud of this one...
2) So wrong on this one LOL....
3) He is still on top and no sign of retirement...
4) Did not happen...
5) Even I didn't know it would go 3 in a row...
6) I thought it was boring but not widely considered...

Anderson Silva will get his clock cleaned by Vitor Belfort.
Nam Phan will stopping getting assfucked by the judges.
Cain Velasquez will lose his title.
GSP will be fed a middleweight or two, then get dickslapped by one of the premier middleweights.

Bonus Lesnar will go ape shit on someone and destroy them.

1) Steven Segal did not agree with this one and taught him that kick that won the fight...
2) Nope, they even stop using lube lmao
3) Nice one...
4) Dickslapping did not occur...
5) Jones won the title sooner then you thought and took it from Shogun like you predicted but likely not FOTY...
6) Maybe Allister...

1) It is amazing how badly Bader has fallen..
2) This was a popular theory...
3) He was so close...
4) Replace Diaz with Bisping and you have this one right... I liked the buildup...
5) Nope did not happen...
