Prediction: correct Nogueira   wrong Submission   wrong Round 3  


That would be interesting....Matt Mitrione has a 5 fight win streak at HW too...maybe they should fight if they both win their upcoming fights

Prediction: wrong Schaub   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

I don't see them throwing 2 prospects against each other...If they do they burn a potential new title fight and will end up with a re-match after the Schaub/Mitrione winner fights for the belt

if shaub and mitrione both lose there next fight i can see them fighting each other but the ufc barely throws winning prospects in with each other too often except for phil davis vs gustavson.

I think they will both be top guys soon, I really dont see either one being champ tho.  I really would like to see Meathead stomp Schaub tho so I hope the fight happens

@skeet I agree with ya for some reason I just don't like Schaub. I really didn't like Meathead at all either when he was on the show but he's been growing on me and I would root for him against Schaub

Watching Dana's video blog and seeing what shape Nogueira's in kinda boosted my confidence in him. The weigh-ins are starting right now, so everyone will see in a little bit.

I'll be rooting for Nog, but I just don't see a win for him... Gosh I hope he does though.

Prediction: wrong Schaub   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 3  

My heart says Nog but my head says Schaub. However I keep thinking of how Schaub kinda struggled with an over-the-hill Cro Cop for the first 2 rounds, which makes me think that Nog has a better chance than we're all giving him, especially if he gets it to the ground... but then Schaub pulled off the KO so does that scratch what I just said? 
This is a tough one. I'm gonna change my pick to Nog just for ****s.

Nog didn't look as good as I thought he would at the weigh-ins, so I can't change my pick. But man am I hoping he wins.

Prediction: correct Nogueira   wrong Submission   wrong Round 3  

Nogueira looked bad at the weigh ins. My hopes went from slim to next to none. I refuse to change my pick though. For the record, if I were picking Schuab, it would be by decision. 

Why is it that fighters I don't like always have to beat the ones that I do?

That's true. But they could be nice to me and let Nogueira lose to Todd Duffee or something rather than Schuab.

I thought Nogueira looked alright at the weigh-ins, he wasn't super cut but he was in good shape for him.
