OWGP winner?

Who do you predict will win the Pride Open Weight GP?
It's an interesting state of affairs with the remaining fighters. I'm a big Nogueira fan but I just can't see him beating Fedor. I think Nog would beat Cro-cop again and that Mirko would also be defeated by Fedor for a second time.

I'd love to see Barnett win, he's been fantastic on the ground lately, looking really good against Aleks getting the quick sub and moved well avoiding being put in guard after getting him down. Josh's performance against Hunt was just perfect.
I can't see Nog getting past Fedor, but I do think Josh may pose problems to the current HW champ, however I don't know that Barnett can take Cro-cop considering their previous encounters (2nd one mainly).

So personally I'd love Nog to take it, if not Barnett. I think Fedor v Barnett would be the best possible matchup and I'd be backing Barnett for the win all the way.

Thoughts?

Dear Mr Vernon,

We accept the fact that we had to sacrifice a whole Saturday in detention for whatever it was we did wrong. And what we did was wrong. But we think you're crazy telling us to write an essay telling you who we think we are. You see us as you want to see us. In the simplest terms, with the most convenient definitions. But what we found out is that each one of us is a brain, and an athlete, a basket case, a princess, and a criminal....Does that answer your question?

Sincerely yours... The Breakfast Club
