Random Notes and Ruminations From UFC 101.

There are literally thousands of people writing “official” UFC 101 recaps. All of which pretty much say the same thing. So in spirit of UFC 101, I decided to offer a decidedly different take. The following notes are part of a running diary I kept while watching UFC 101. You’ll find everything from some serious fight talk to what I thought about the fighters walkout music. Enjoy.

 
 

UFC 101: Who will win?

Official UFC 101 Poster

UFC 101 is just five days away. Who do you think will win the two big bouts?
 
Many prognosticators have K-Flo beating BJ Penn by decision, but that might be a little hasty. After the George St-Pierre debacle and the subsequent vasoline controversy, Penn has some atoning to do in the octagon. To write him off already and say that he has no shot at defeating Florian is a tad premature. I expect to see Penn put up a good fight and pull off the upset.
