Yeah, I don't think this season of "The Ultimate Fighter" did much to improve his image. The guy is a total bada$$ but I enjoy seeing guys like Couture and Franklin who have class and humility in addition to awe-inspiring MA skills.
I'd love to see Hughes lose but I don't think it's going to happen in this fight.
Now, the Franklin vs. Quarry fight is going to be awesome! I gotta agree that it would be hard to bet against Franklin but you never know--this could be an epic battle (let's hope so!)

Hughes opponent has a punchers chance he probably can't match Matt on the ground unless he's on top. I don't like Matts' attitude he is a bit arogant, do I want him to loose not yet. I don't think its bragging if its true.
After seeing Matt survive a near knockout and counter fully engage RNC he has a the heart of a Champion. It would be hard to submit him unless he was stunned early on or he gets KO'd. His opponent got good stand up skills.
I like Rich Franklin he is a class act, Quarry can hit and might be better on the ground? Maybe?

Yep, I ruptured both hamstrings at the same time once and I had those exact marks, same location. I'm fine now by the way even though a doctor friend told me those never really heal up. BTW, I did this playing softball (running from home plate after hotting ball) before starting MA. Now in shape from training, I don't think it could happen again.

So what are all of your picks for the upcoming fights?
Here are my OWN:
*Franklin vs. Quarry: My heart says Quarry but my head says Franklin. Going with my heart on this one; Quarry.
*Hughes vs. Riggs: Easy one. Hughes. Could be wrong but against top-line talent, Riggs has been beaten. Hughes is among the BEST EVER. Hughes here.
*St. Pierre vs. Sherk: WOW! This could be the closest of the night. I believe St. Pierre is more well rounded whereas Sherk is more one diminsional. Of course I could be wrong there. Gotta go with what I know - St. Pierre in this one.
*Horn vs. Prangley: Should be a win for the veteran - at least it should be easier than a fight against Liddell. Going with Horn.
*Jordan vs. Gonzaga: Who the hell are THESE guys, lol?! Only one I know is Kevin Jordan so I'm going with him. Hows THAT for scientific breakdowns, lol?
*Hoger vs. Newton: Ultimate Fighter reality shows be DAMNED! I'm pulling for Newton against Hoger. Hoger is tough, but he was on a reality show. As good as that one was, I hate reality shows on PRINCIPLE! Going with Newton in this one. (I really couldn't say with any certainty WHO would win anyway....)
*Thompson vs. Wisniewski: ???? Flip a coin folks....
*Alves vs. Chalangov: Keep that coin available for this one as well. Your guess is as good as mine.

Franklin vs. Quarry, want quarry to win, but I think I will bet on Franklin to win my money, might do a sidebet with this one and add to some of the other fights so Franklin to win here
Hughes vs. Riggs, hughes, no doubt know it is wrong, but I see riggs as a "rookie" 
Horn vs. Prangley, Horn to win this one...
damnit, have to get back to work....
