Replaced my laptop’s hard drive to an SSD. Best upgrade ever.

Upgrading your hard drive to a solid state drive can give your computer a significant speed boost. I wish I upgraded sooner.

SSD drives are more expensive than traditional drives, but drives prices have gone down quite a bit when compared to two years ago. I got a Samsung 840 pro 512GB at Fry’s with a price match from Amazon.

I’m still shocked that Silva got KO’d

Even after watching the fight again I’m still not satisfied about Weidman winning the belt. I hope Silva returns and gets his belt back before he retires. But its a great lesson for all fighters that you shouldn’t clown around in the cage against anyone.

UFC 161

Unfortunately a rematch of MMA’s greatest bout (Rua vs Nogueira) was pulled but a bout between Evans and Henderson is an interesting one.  In fact, they are very similar in style, but Evans is more dynamic. Henderson is getting up there in age and it is going to affect his speed and reaction.  The only chance Henderson has on Evans is his ability to pack a KO punch with either hand. As long as Evans is able to stay clear of Henderson’s haymakers he can squeeze Henderson to a decision win.

 

My Picks:

Rashad Evans beats Dan Henderson
Roy Nelson beats Stipe Miocic
Igor Pokrajac beats Ryan Jimmo
Jake Shields beats Tyron Woodley
Pat Barry beats Shawn Jordan
Alexis Davis beats Rosi Sexton
Sean Pierson beats Kenny Robertson
