Prediction: correct Strickland   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

Ohhhhhhh ... sick matchup! Slightly leaning towards Tarzan even though Barnatt hasn't given me any reason to start doubting him, I just believe Strickland is a future top 5 guy on his way up. I may be a tad premature with that, but it's a gut feeling and I'm rolling with it.

Prediction: correct Strickland   correct Decision  

This is matchmaking at it's finest. Strickland is a beast, but Barnatt seems to be improving everytime we see him. I dont know who to pick.. but this should be awesome.

Prediction: correct Strickland   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

Luke Barnett has shown us he is very hitable and that he can be knocked out. He has looked great though, but I typically.believe non TUF prospects > TUF prospects.

Prediction: correct Strickland   correct Decision  

Im very exited for this matchup, and I think the lines is messed up. So much value in Strickland, but this is a tosh up I think.

If Strickland can take this fight to the ground, he will grind out a dec. or maybe at later stoppage. If Barnett can keep it standing, I see him punishing Strickland with his reach advantage and maybe get a early stoppage.

There is something about Strickland. I think he has massive potential, and he got will and heart. It would be interesting to see if he can overcome Barnett if he meets resistance.

Prediction: wrong Barnatt   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

then why have you gone for Barnatt to win? if it's going to be like the war of independence, (which it isn't!)
usa all the way, then not go for the american to win, and not Barnatt who is english!
Although its gonna be a war maybe fight of the night, i'll go for Luke "big slow" Barnatt not because of zenaphobic view of the world, just because i like him as a fighter!
