Predictions for UFC Fight Night 18

 For the main event we have our Carlos Condit vs. Martin Kampmann prediction page

Ryan Bader vs. Carmelo Marrero

Pats Prediction

  • TUF 8 winner Ryan Bader will have a very stiff test as he enters the octagon for the second time.  He will be facing Carmelo Marrero, who will be returning to the UFC after leaving for almost two years. Even though Bader is undefeated thus far, Marrero has faced much tougher competition.  I see Marrero’s size and strength being the difference in this fight.  Marrero by unanimous decision.  

  – Bader vs. Marrero Odds

Tyson Griffin vs. Rafael Dos Anjos

Pats Prediction

  • This will be a very explosive and entertaining fight as Tyson Griffin and Rafael Dos Anjos go to war. In his UFC debut Dos Anjos was on the wrong end of a Jeremy Stephens punch resulting in a nasty KO. Dos Anjos is very tough and definitely has a career int he UFC. Unfortunately Griffin’s great training and experience will prove to be the difference in this match up and will take a unanimous decision victory.

Junie Browning vs. Cole Miller

Pats Prediction

  • Junie left a bad taste in my mouth with his childish behavior on the show.  He went on to win his debut fight against Dave Kaplan.  He will now be facing Cole Miller who is a much more complete fighter and has taken to heart the trash talk that Junie has been dishing out.  With that said Miller will display is well rounded skills on Junie and submit him in round one.
