Concerning only the final 6 fights: I agree with you on 4, but I'll take Story and Shogun.  I think Story's wrestling will cause problems for Kampmann, and I think Shogun will be able to hurt Hendo enough in the first round to slow him down, drag out the fight, and expose his age.  Hendo hasn't had to take a punch and push through to later rounds in his past couple fights, so we've forgotten how he's lost a bit of his younger-years, full-fight tenacity.  I think we'll see this weakness again here, though, unfortunately.
