Fred's Quick UFC 113 Predictions

Saturday night, May 8, 2010 in Montreal the highly anticipated rematch between Lyoto "The Dragon" Machida and Mauricio "Shogun" Rua will take place. Many people felt that Shogun won the first fight though the decision went to the champion Machida. The Co headliner on the card is a heated battle between Josh "Kos" Koscheck and Paul "Semtex" Daley with the winner earning a coaching slot against Georges St. Pierre on The Ultimate Fighter and more importantly a Welterweight title shot at the end of the season. Here are, quickly, my predictions for all the fights on this tremendous card.
