UFC 161

My predictions for UFC 161. Post yours in the comments below.
 
Rashad Evans vs. Dan Henderson. How did these two get the main event after their last fights? Two of the most boring uneventful defeats I’ve seen in a long time. Evans has been talking about retiring for a while now and Henderson has been talking about fighting for the title. I think that says it all, Henderson wins. (Completely off topic, I want to see Evans and Cuba Gooding Jr. in a movie together.)
 
Roy Nelson vs. Stipe Miocic. Both of these guys are finishers but I think Nelson is tougher. Takes a beating and keeps on ticking. Even when he lost he went the distance. Nelson with another knockout.
 
Alexis Davis vs. Rosi Sexton. Davis is tough, she can give it and take it, plus a size advantage with Sexton moving up a weight class. Davis wins.
 
Pat Barry vs. Shawn Jordan. Barry is due to win two in a row. Barry is hilarious, I can’t help but like him and root for him.
