Prediction: correct Cormier   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

@joe kerr - Barnett did beat Nastula, but I think an argument can be made that Cormier has adjusted better to MMA (and didn't just leap in at the deep end like Nastula did, which is usually not a great idea) and that in general wrestling adjusts better to MMA than Judo (unless your name is Ronda Rousey).

Prediction: wrong Barnett   wrong Submission   wrong Round 1  

People are way too hyped up on Cormier, he has 9 fights and his biggest win is against Glass Chin Overrated Antonio Silva. Barnett's got this, he's a stud and has been forever.

Prediction: correct Cormier   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

Bigfoot fell to Cormier easily. Josh does not really have the speed to hang with Cormier and he probably will not be able to take him down. Speed helps the olympian.

Prediction: correct Cormier   correct Decision  

This fight is impossible to call. I think Cormier is quicker which could be the difference maker on the feet. This fight is a coin flip.
