I only saw like two people make predictions on that thread, and it was more for discussions about who would win. I figured this could be more official and could be used to keep track of our records throughout the rest of the year predicting PPV's, UFN's etc.

Karo (Even though Diego is undefeated, I don't think he's faced anyone as good as Karo.)
Leben (Will rebound off of his disappointing loss.)
Lister (Once this goes to the ground, and I believe it will, it's over.)
Goulet (Koscheck obviously has superior wrestling, but I think Goulet will pull this out.)

Goulet is good... but I think Koscheck is better. Goulet is good, but Koscheck is a beast. I am very eager to see how much he has improved since his last fight. Koscheck has a much higher potential than most other fighters because of his amazing wrestling career (D-1 nat'l CHAMPION), so as time goes on he will improve much faster than others. This will be an awesome fight!!
Lister is going to win, def.
I hope Leben loses again. Who knows though... I have a feeling they're setting him up for a big win tomorrow, b/c he is a crowd favorite and his loss to Silva really tarnished his credibility among his fans (not a fact, it'st just what I think).

I don't think karo is going to have an easy time. Diegos wrestling/bjj along with his strength should be more than enough to stop karos judo. Karo is slick though, but I just don't see a predictable kimura takedown or armspin or judo throw taking diego down. I think karo will be on his back for much of this fight.
I believe wrestling > judo and bjj > judo...but then again karo isn't your average judo guy so we'll see.
Also I would bet a very large amount of money that kos takes out goulet. I think he's going to dominate that fight.
My predictions:
Diego
Leben
Lister
Kos

Koscheck is no joke. that was one hell of a show. now hes proved, he can drop people and then finish the fight on the ground, not only take em down to finish. give him a couple of years and I think he will be a legit title contender.
