Predictions for UFC Ultimate Fight Night

Ultimate Fight Night bannerUltimate Fight Night – and the premier of The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 4 – are less than a week away on August 17.

That can mean only one thing: predictions.

The card has some great match ups, including Diego Sanchez vs. Karo Parisyan, Chris Leben vs. Jorge Santiago and Dean Lister vs. Yuki Sasaki. Also fighting that night:

Josh Koscheck (8-1) vs Jonathan Goulet (16-6)
-- Joe Riggs (27-8) vs Jason Von Flue (13-6)
-- Forrest Petz (17-2) vs Sam Morgan (18-7)
-- Crafton Wallace (11-1) vs Martin Kampmann (7-1)
-- Pat Healy (26-10) vs Anthony Torres (4-1)
-- Jake O' Brien (7-0) vs Christophe Midoux (9-5)

Sanchez, Parisyan, Leben, Lister, Koscheck and Riggs are pay-per-view-type talent. The fact that we get to see them all fight live on SpikeTV is nuts.

Anywho, the guys over at Pro Wrestling Insider yesterday broke down each fight and offered up some good analysis and predictions.

Here's a taste:

-- A decision in favor of Parysian or an early TKO by either fighter
-- Leben by TKO in round 2
-- Lister will finish the fight in the first
-- Koscheck to win by late TKO
-- Riggs by KO in round 1
-- Petz by TKO in round 2
-- Kampmann to win by decision
-- Healy via submission
-- O'Brien by first round KO
