Smile UFC 111 anyone?

Alright fight fans. Just wondering your thoughts or picks for a winner on two fights of the main card. Welterweight Championship bout: Georges St. Pierre (c) vs. Dan Hardy and for the Interim Heavyweight Championship bout: Frank Mir vs. Shane Carwin...the winner of that match will go on to face the bad a** monster UFC Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar!

What are your picks?

I will wait awhile and watch the replays on spike,not worth the money to pay for it and most of the fights don't get out of the 1st maybe 2nd round.

I'm pretty sure GSP will win. As for Mir vs Carwin I hope Carwin knocks him out. I don't like Mir, but if Mir wins then I wouldn't mind watching Brock Lesnar destroy him again like he did at UFC 100.

Ive got GSP winning, he dominated in his last fight, and he is just looking unstoppable.

Carwin and Mir, I dunno, Mir has been actually been pretty impressive as of late, untill ya stick Brock in front of him!

Yeah GSP completely dominated Hardy (which is good IMO I really dont like Hardy)

Im surprised with how fast Carwin beat Mir though! I really thought Mir had a chance!

I think Mir was too focused on Brock after the comments he made and not the fight in front of him with Carwin. And yes Carwin better be ready for Brock. It's going to be a good fight with two big wrestlers...I can't wait to see this one!

I dont think mir was expecting such a physical Carwin, but Shane lived up to the hype and did as promised.
Maybe Mir will start taking things like that more seriously.
Brock and carwin will be a slug fest i believe, both want to prove that they can step into a slug fest with the other and be the one left standing.
But smart thinking says take it to the ground since they both want a slug fest, again. Both collegite wrestlers, i would give the ground game to brock. I wont be suprised to see him take it to the ground from time to time.

Yeah, I think it will be a ground game with Brock dominating a lot of it. Brock hasn't had a good evenly matched wrestling opponant for a while now...plus he has never been pinned flat on his back yet. Brock won't want to get caught by Carwin's punches like Mir did, but I can see Brock somehow beating Carwin. Just my thoughts.

I dunno, the crowd wants a slug fest, brock and shane both want to knock the other out, it might go to ground and pound, but honestly it wont be easy to make the other tap, i say it will likely go to stoppage in the 2nd possible 3rd with brock takin the when, i think he will be battered but i think he will take the win...
