UFC 132 Prediction Results: I was 171-124-3 coming in and I did pretty good. UFC 132 definitely lived up to the hype, great card with great fights. I thought the judging was pretty solid, I felt Siver and Cruz both one despite the fan boo’s. Although the one judge who had it 50-45 Cruz was definitely wrong. I had it 49-46 and as close as 48-47. Dos Anjos surprised, and Kim didn’t deliver what I thought to be a la and pray gameplan. The other fight was just a guess, I had no idea about any of those guys. Overall, I went 8-3 and I am now 179-127-3… my winning percentage rose but still remains at 58%
