Predictions for UFC Fight Night 19: Diaz vs. Guillard

Gray Maynard vs. Roger Huerta

For a detailed prediction of this fight visit our Maynard vs. Huerta prediction page.

Pats Prediction

Roger Huerta enters this fight to fulfill his UFC contract and pursue an acting career. He will be facing undefeated and very talented Gray Maynard in the Co Main event. Both fighters rely on their wrestling to control their opponents and get in position to deliver a beating. However I believe Maynard will have the advantage in that department and give Huerta a slight advantage in the stand up. I see Maynard displaying his dominant wrestling over Huerta earning a unanimous decision victory.

Carlos Condit vs. Jake Ellenberger

Pats Prediction

Former WEC welterweight champ Carlos Condit will take on MMA vet Jake Ellenberger. Condit will look to rebound from his UFC debut loss to Martin Kampmann and welcome Ellenberger into the UFC with a loss. Ellenberger comes into this fight with a great record and MMA experience but lacks the talent that Condit has faced. Condit is a primarily a grappler and Ellenberger a striker. This fight will come down to Condit being able to strike with Ellenberger and then using his superior grappling en route to a unanimous decision victory.

Nate Quarry vs. Tim Credeur

Pats Prediction

Here we have two TUF alums in Nate Quarry (season 1) and Tim Credeur (Season 7). This is a great stylistic match up of Striker vs. Grappler. Quarry is a good striker with heavy hands but lacks the speed and mobility of Credeur. Quarry needs to keep this fight up and try to land heavy shots, while Credeur is not afraid to stand and trade he will eventually need to take this fight to the mat. I see Credeur taking Quarry down where he is outclassed tremendously and securing a second round submission. Bet on Credeur as a +215 underdog to win.

Steve Cantwell vs. Brian Stann

For a detailed prediction of this fight visit our Cantwell vs. Stann prediction page.

Pats Prediction

Here we have a rubber match between WEC veterans Steve Cantwell against Brian Stann. They both hold a win over eachother in the WEC and will look to settle business on the big stage in the UFC. Both fighters are coming off loses and are hungry for a win. Cantwell won his UFC debut against Razak Al-Hassan and Stann tasted defeat by the hands of Soszynski. Stann carries heavy hands and has ended all six of his wins via T/KO. Cantwell on the other hand can also strike, but brings in good wrestling and submissions. I think that will keep Stann thinking and this will be a repeat of WEC 35 with Cantwell earning a second round TKO victory.
