For a while there, I was on a real hot streak with my Ultimate Fighting Championships predictions. Most of my picks for UFC 75 were dead on, and I got every fight right (except one) for Ultimate Fight Night. But, on Sept. 22, my hot streak came to a crushing end

On paper, the card for UFC 76: Knockout looked like something Vince McMahon would put together – back to back fights with top-ranked champions and former champions facing a batch of "unprepared" former reality TV show contestants. Pretty easy to pick the winners there, right?

Wrong, sucker. With a few exceptions, all the favorites lost and all the underdogs "rallied" to pull off stunning upsets. UFC 76: Knockout didn’t even feature a knockout. Also, what the hell was up with the judges?
