Tag Archives: Akiyama

Max is right: I’m consistently wrong on this MMA prediction business.  I said Akiyama would beat Leben by decision.  He lost by triangle choke in the third round.  I said Carwin would beat Lesnar by TKO in the second round.  He lost to Lesnar by an arm triangle in the second round.  My friend, with whom I was watching it, said that I was close.  If Akiyama had lasted another 20 seconds, he probably would’ve won by decision–and Leben agrees.  Carwin came close to knocking out Lesnar in round one.  But all in all, I was wrong…again.
