"Canadian Corner" Talent Provides Predictions on UFC 91: Couture vs Lesnar

This Saturday the legend, UFC Heavyweight Champion Randy "The Natural" Couture returns after a year and a half absence to put his title on the line against the 265 pound wrecking machine, Brock Lesnar. This is the most anticipated fight in quite some time, as many would say the GREATEST fight of all time.  Canadian talent and superstars speak with us at mmacanada.net to give us their opinions on the fight...

When speaking with Mark 'The machine" Hominick about what he thinks of the Couture vs Lesnar fight, he responds "This is going to be a GREAT fight for the fans". Hominick states "Im picking Couture over Lesnar because of Randy's experience and gameplan, he always executes it properly and perfect".

One of the youngest rising stars in the sport today, former IFL athlete and London Ontario native Chris "Polish Hammer" Horodecki says to mmacanada.net "I see Couture grinding out a five round decision".

One of Canada's top middleweight prospects, hailing from Darmouth, Nova Scotia, TJ Grant says "I am definitely pulling for Randy. Lesnar is a beast and will be around a long time, but I dont wanna ever go against Couture again! last time and only time I ever did, he put a whoopin on Tim Sylvia.  I pick Randy"

Many do believe that age has nothing to do with Randy's ability to follow through with his gameplan and overcome a huge tough fighter like Brock Lesnar who is in his prime and moves like a middleweight.

In the co-main event, two of the top lightweights will collide as Kenny "Kenflo" Florian will go to war against TUF 2 season winner Joe "Daddy' Stevenson in a fight that will determine who the #1 contender is for BJ Penn's title.

"Im leaning towards Kenflo on this one, but man its a close one! I see it going to decision but my money would be on Kenny!" Says Tj Grant.

On the other hand, Horodecki would have to disagree. "I see an upset by Stevenson.  I believe he will take it by TKO".

The story will unfold on November 15th inside the UFC octagon as these two warriors do battle.

Fellow Canadian lightweight, born and raised in Woodbridge Ontario Canada, Mark Bocek, a decorated Brazilian jiu jitsu black belt will return to the Octagon to fight Alvin Robinson, yet another accomplished grappler.

"Im going to go with Bocek over Robinson" says Hominick. "I think he's more accomplished on the mat and thats where they both want the fight to go".

Both fighters have a lot to prove in this fight if they wish to become more of a household name;  "yea I think Bocek has the tools to win that fight. Both guys show great heart. I'm gonna go with Bocek, this fight will probably end up going to a decision", says TJ Grant.

Horodecki believes Bocek will be the victor in that fight "Bocek will take this fight in the 2nd round by submission".

"There are a lot of great athletes on the card, I see Amir Sadollah winning by TKO and Demian Maia submitting Nate Quarry", says Horodecki
