One Writers Preview of Ultimate Fight Night 11
UFN 11 is on Spike TV on September 19 at 9pm (ET/PT)
Din Thomas vs Spencer “ The King” Fisher this easily could be the fight of the night.
Din Thomas has a very impressive resume and has fought the biggest names in MMA.
With wins over Jens Pulver, Matt Sera and Clay Guida just to name a few.
Din is dangerous in both submissions and striking and coming from the American Top Team you know they are finetuning his skills.
Spencer “The King” Fisher is another well-rounded dangerous fighter. With notable wins over Sam Stout, Thaigo Alves and always on the knock out real with the flying knee knock out of Matt Wiman. Also coming from a great camp in Pat Miletich.
I’m giving it to Fisher with the decision.

Mike “ Quick” Swick vs Jonathan Goulet.
This is Mike’s first fight in coming down a weight class and fighting at 170lb. They don’t call him Quick for nothing with his fast hands and his famous Swickotine choke. Will the wait loss make him into Mike “The Turtle “Swick or will he steal Superman’s line as fast as a speeding bullet? I’m excited to find out!
Jonathan Goulet “The Road Warrior” Has probably the most colourful hair in the entire sport. Goulet likes to bang with most of his wins coming from KO/TKO.
If Swick is the same man at 170lb as he is at his usual 185lb I believe he’ll go right through Goulet. The question is what type of fighter will he be at 170lb because if he starts gassing early The Road Warrior will do what he does best and that’s knocking people out.
Swick via TKO in the first.
Chris Leben vs Terry Martin
Chris is coming of 2 consecutive losses to the Canadian boys Kalib Starnes and Jason McDonald. Leben hasn’t been very impressive lately with sloppy technique and gassing i quickly.
Terry Martin has been a roll after coming down from 205lb to 185lbs. With his last four fights have been wins with TKO or KO.
Martin in the third via TKO.
Nate Diaz vs Junior Assuncao
Nathan Diaz is the TUF 5 season winner and a member of the Caeser Gracie team.
Junior Assunca isn’t either of those.
Nathan Diaz via submission in the first
Gray Maynard vs Joe Veres
Maynard has superior wrestling and his hands are coming up very fast.
I’m giving him the TKO in the first.
At the time we got Casper sloggin along on these picks, Leonard Garcia vs Cole Miller and Nate Quarry vs Pete Sell weren’t really being floated around…
