Cacareco looks like a sub specialist too. But I'm still going with the Toquinho by submission.

I think if hes willing to fight anderson after 2 wins they should let him.  He has a solid chin and interesting stand up (im thinking hendo fight, wasnt super effective against hendo but was interesting) and an insane ground game.  I think he'd pose the same threat as maia except with a fearless striking aspect so it wouldnt be a dance fest.

I'll probably end up picking a decision again.  .. and lose points.. but oh well!

Submission seems to be the safest pick with Palhares lol. He's already subbed Branch and Linhares who are BJJ blackbelts. And Cacareco has been subbed before.

Cacareco is saying it isn't quite set yet due to some weight issues.  He is trying to get down to MW as we speak.
