UFC 95 Diego Sanchez vs. Joe Stevenson, it's gonna be a tough pick. Joe is coming off a loss to Kenny Florian, while Diego is coming off back to back wins and making his debut at lightweight. Both fighters have great ground games, and both have improved their striking. Diego stands 3 inches taller than Joe, and may end up weighing more by fight time. Conditioning shouldn't be a factor, but I think the combo of weight cut and time difference will effect Diego in some way. I'm taking Joe by decision.
