UFC 116 Weigh In Results and Predictions
My first prediction is that this will be a mediocre card. Losing Wanderlei Silva for Chris Leben is a definite drop in talent, however Leben should try and keep it entertaining for the fans. I also think that people will be interested in what the "Kimbo Killer" Seth Petruzelli can do in the UFC. Besides that, the only other fight that is getting any real attention is the main event of main events. Brock Lesnar has still yet to be physically challenged at 265 pounds. Shane Carwin will not only present a challenge to Lesnar in terms of size and strength, but Carwin has the skill level to go along with it. My main concern here for the fans, is that I still feel that Brock holds the strength advantage, and if he can get the takedowns throughout the fight, it will be a snooze fest, as I highly doubt he would be able to do much else
