I chose both the favorites to come out on top over their opponents and both Georges St. Pierre and Rich Franklin did just that! Both of them actually dominated their opponents; finishing their fights and NOT leaving it up to the judges to decided the winner!

Middleweights: Rich Franklin -350 wins over Travis Lutter +250
Welterweights: George St. Pierre -500 wins over Matt Serra +300

Since this was my first sports picks of the year my record is a perfect 2-0! Hopefully I continue my winning streak. I’ll be adding the results and updating my sports pick stats on the Sports Picks page sometime today.

I’ll be making fictional bets on major sports events that I’m interested in and knowledgeable about. This is all for fun and I don’t actually make any real sports bets, but the purpose of it is to keep a running total of my wins to loses.

Today, I’ll be making my predictions for the two main events in the upcoming UFC 83 event. Here are my predictions:

Middleweights: Rich Franklin -350 wins over Travis Lutter +250
Welterweights: George St. Pierre -500 wins over Matt Serra +300

I’m taking both the favorites this time for $100 each for a total of $200 on the line.

In these types of events there is no point spread, and it’s just a straight bet with payouts based on odds. I’ll be keeping track of my win/loss ratio over at the Sports Picks page I created specifically for this, and at the end of each year we’ll see how I faired compared to many other so called “professional” sports pick services.
