    Well UFC 98 this Saturday be sure to support UFC and get out to the local pub and watch. I am really pumped for the main even which only a few matches really interst me. Evans vs. Lyota will be a very good match and one of the few that has me scratching my head as this one could easiy go either way. Since I have to make a call I will take the underdog Evans as he seems to consistently be the underdog even though undefeated and has beaten some very good fighters. He's extremely fast with his hands ans great movement, He's a extremely good wrestler with the explosiveness to match anyone in his class and yes he is extremely "cocky" or confident if you were to ask him.
    Although I hate the attitude when he is in the octagon I think he is by far a under-rated champion.

    Serra vs. Hughes I love the grudge match but don't see a extremely entertaining fight. Both are ground specialists with decent stand up. May go the distance if Serra does not gas in the third round. If he gasses look for hughes to finish early by stoppage from strikes. Sherk and Edgar is the next match I want to see. I see Sherk's stand up to good for Edgar. Sherk will win the decision. One closer to UFC 100! :cool:
