I really like Babalu but Ortiz is going to pound on him. I cant see Tito losing this one unless Babalu can catch a sub.
I'm picking Ortiz round 2 by GNP

I think they are playing it just right. I new Tito was going to fight with affliction and ofcourse love him or hate him he is a big draw. They have plenty of time to build a talent pool. There are so many match ups that I want to see. I think by, if not this event, their third event they will begin to profit and by the end of next year they will have a solid fan-base and talent pool.
They are setting a pace that the UFC is going to have to adjust to (money+promotion). It is great for the sport IMO.
I would like to see Babalu actually submit Tito but I think we'll see a little GNP...

This should be a good fight, hopefully now that he's out of the UFC, we can see the Tito Ortiz of old, if that shows up, he stops Babalu, if that Ortiz doesn't show up he either wins a lackluster decsion or loses a lackluster decision.

That is a decent matchup! I think Babalu has a small advantage standing and the reverse is true for the ground. I have not followed Babalu as religiously as other fighters, so how is he fighting from his back? Tito is going to come into this fight looking much larger than Babalu, so I see him getting taken down early and Tito holding him there for most of the first round until Babalu figures out Titos take down just like Forest did before it was too late.
He's good from his back, but his top game is the shit. I can't wait to see Sobral beat Tito's ass!
