meathead is great friends with pat barry, and he probably has inside info about kongo...not to mention he wants to avenge a fallen friend....meat wins

Prediction: wrong Mitrione   wrong Decision  

@jersey .. Inside info that Barry knocked him out 3 times and still managed to lose?? Yeah that's always encouraging. I am tempted to change my pick. I really dont know who wins this one.

Yeah I think I will but I wont be surprised at all if Kongo wins. Whoever wins this goes top 10 in my opinion.

Matt should win because he is the more diverse fighter, and the fight imo would be like Cheick fighting Mir, with the same results. Advantage Mitrione.

Prediction: correct Kongo   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

My biggest question in this fight is whether Kongo decides to stand with him or take him down. Kongo has some viscous GnP that I don't think we see him utilize enough.

Prediction: wrong Mitrione   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

Mitrione is probably the fastest improving athlete in MMA coming from an NFL background.  He's come a long way since TUF 10, he's a great personality and an excellent fighter.

Prediction: correct Kongo   correct Decision  

I hope I'm wrong, but I don't think I will be... Kongo is going to wrestle Mitrione. If he can't take him down he'll push him against the fence and knee him in the groin a lot. He'll win a decision.

Prediction: correct Kongo   correct Decision  

Whoever voted me down might want to go check out the Buentello and Browne fights. If he feels he's threatened on the feet, Cheick likes to clinch up. I think Mitrione will be able to defend the takedowns which will lead to a lot of knees to the thighs and...groin.

i think the extra 27 pounds will come in handy. mitrione can also knee to the groin. either way kongo is getting tko'd. i did not know kongo is getting close to 37 years old. he looks younger.
