Prediction: correct Nelson   correct KO/TKO   correct Round 1  

Let's see if this fight happens or will Nogueira get injured in the gym before he gets there. Tit for tat I am not sure if Nogueira will get Nelson to the ground he has pretty solid TDD. which would make it more of a strike fight in which case I think Nelson would have the definite advantage, but his constant searching for using the one big shot has been hurting him in his last few fights throwing bombs that don't hit anything as we pretty much saw in the Cormier fight which was pretty boring as well. But this fight will be better.

Prediction: wrong Nogueira   wrong Decision  

I don't know why, but I really don't see this fight going to the ground. I think both of them will have their chins tested for sure. I think that this fight will be great to be honest, really underrated.

I see maybe a Hunt vs Bigfoot type fight but with a tad more grappling.

I like.

Not really sure what big nog has for anyone, anymore. I think we're just going to see an old man out there. big nog already had his "special moment" against Schaub in Brazil.

I could see this going either way, both guys have been less than impressive recently.

i think people are slipping on Nogueira, because he lost to tough competition. 
in my mind he will control the fight and win a decision.

I'm gonna be honest and say that I think Nelson will win, but I'm picking Nog because I can't live with myself if I pick against him

I would pick Big Nog if he was the way he was ten years ago but that chin is now gone.

His chin may not be gone but after this fight his brains will be. He'll be trying to feed a carrot to everything, not just buses.

How is it possible to train every day for 8-12 weeks and still look like that? Big Nog is looking thick, solid, tight. But if he has the same lack of movement he had in the Herman fight he is getting KOed by the overhand right.
