At least I placed first in the Overall Standings for the year this time, last year Van was the Overall winner and this year was a good year of predicting for me, (except for the UFC 155 contest). trips is in second place followed closely by VanHooliganX - (don't bend over trips); then there's Robstar; magglis; FLWWEFan; akbar; cy1911; Wwf1998; Zilvis; MattY2JHBK; Jed I Knight; Destruction; Automatic and finally DRG. Lets keep this going in 2013 and maybe get some more people involved as there will be some exciting changes starting @ the next UFC contest/event happening on 01/19/2013 -
UFC on FX 7: Belfort vs. Bisping - if Bisping (23-4 MMA, 13-4 UFC) can beat Vitor Belfort (21-10 MMA, 10-6 UFC) at UFC on FX 7 in Brazil, his boss, (Dana White), said he'll be looking at a shot – finally – at Anderson Silva's 185-pound UFC Middleweight championship Belt. Dana White said at Saturday's post-event news conference for UFC 155.
"If Bisping wins that fight, he'll get the next shot."
