Man oh man. What a night. But again, my picks were off again. I thought for sure Griffin was going to lose, but, nnnnooooooooooo!
Here were my picks:
Tito Ortiz vs. Forrest Griffin ...........................................Ortiz
Josh Koscheck vs. Anthony Johnson ...............................Koscheck
Antonio Rogerio Nogueira vs. Luis Arthur Cane ...............Nogueira
Dustin Hazelett vs. Karo Parisyan ..................................Parisyan
Amir Sadollah vs. Phil Baroni ........................................Baroni
Marcus Davis vs. Ben Saunders .....................................Saunders
Paulo Thiago vs. Jacob Volkmann...................................Thiago
Kendall Grove vs. Jake Rosholt ......................................Rosholt
Brock Larson vs. Brian Foster ........................................Larson
Caol Uno vs. Fabricio Camoes .......................................Camoes
George Sotiropoulos vs. Jason Dent ...............................Dent
But......
=Griffin defeated Ortiz....oh boy oh boy
=Koscheck defeated Johnson...well...that's one correct pick
=Nogueira defeated Cane...well...that's two correct picks
=Hazelett VS Parisyan fight was cancelled...so that pick don't count
=Sadollah defeated Baroni...the result didn't help me with my picks...oh boy
=Saunders defeated Davis...well...that's three correct picks
=Thiago defeated Volkmann...well...that's four correct picks
=Grove defeated Rosholt...boy oh boy oh boy...boy oh
=Foster defeated Larson....ouch...ouch...ouch...ouch
=Uno VS Camoes...I'm still confused on this one...who won? Did Uno win due to the point deduction of Camoes?
=Sotiropoulos defeated Dent...boy oh boy and oh boy...again!
Well, I finished either 4 wins and 5/6 losses...I fell like the Dallas Cowboys...you win some and you lose some.
Sheech.....4-6 records a little better than my picks were for 105

What I do from time to time, Bob, is go to sherdog.com, and punch in the fighters' names in the fighter search. Find the guy, see what he kind of does and doesn't do, check his record, and how he tends to win. Then, I'll compare him to the guy he is fighting. This helps when I don't recognize names, and seems to help me at times.
Just an idea.

Sherdog.com! OK! I'll try that. I do my own research on-line just as you've listed above, but, not with sherdog...so...I'll try that. Besides, I was sure that Ortiz was going to win no matter what stats were telling me, but, sheech, I went with my emotions over stats......DUH! I'm such a dork!
