Prediction: correct Belfort   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 3  

Dana always says he wants exciting guys, whether they win or lose, which makes me think Akiyama won't get cut after this. However, 3 losses in a row in the UFC almost always means getting cut. I don't know.

If he draws a crowd consistently, he won't be cut..... he's a good fighter that makes Dana money.

Im not sure on this fight, if Akiyama would actually play to his strengths he could definitely pull off a decision but if he opts to stand with Belfort the fight wont end well for him

I want Akiyama to win. But if not he won't be cut. He's a major player in the bid to hold events in Japan!

Prediction: wrong Akiyama   wrong Decision  

I usually wait with picking until a few days before the fight, to get all details. I want Akiyama to win, because he's an exciting fighter, and he could get cut with a loss. However, I think Belfort will win. We'll see...

belfort will come out with a purpose..after being ko'd so violently in the title fight he'd coveted...however, every time ur lights go out, the switch gets easier to find...akiyama finds that switch early in a great round

Prediction: correct Belfort   correct KO/TKO   correct Round 1  

Akiyama has a good chin and good judo. I think he gets killed in the first round and comes back to take the last two.
