Prediction: correct Johnson wrong Decision

I am really glad that Rumble was able to shut up Phil Davis and I think his stand up should secure him the win here too.

It's not like we forgot who Little Nog is, we just remember his what seems like years of inactivity, the shopping list of injuries and the fact that hes almost 40. Also Rumble is explosive and athletic

I don't think Johnson finishes Nog. People are making Nog sound like an awful fighter.. he isn't.

Rumbles lead leg headkick via tutelage of Cung Le....No can defend.

@Mike, Nog's not an awful fighter, but he's old (geriatric in MMA years, since he's also been through some battles) and Rumble's the last guy you want to meet after such a long layoff ...

Rumble can take this if he does not go to the ground.

Rumble has been on a tear as of late and there's no reason he can't keep that up especially against an oft-injured nearly-forty-year-old Lil Nog who hasn't fought in nearly 18 months.

Prediction: correct Johnson wrong Decision

I don't get why the odds are so lopsided. People seem to have forgotten how good Nogueira is, both on the feet and the ground. I think Johnson will win, but it isn't nearly as one-sided as people make it sound. Nogueira is the better pure boxer. He puts his combinations together better than Johnson. He is more active on the feet than Johnson. He mixes head/body punches up well. I think this is gonna be a really fun, competitive fight.

It will be closer then what people think but I still believe Rumble will take it without much of a problem. Rumble can keep it standing and hit Nog with some big power shots it will really take away anything Nog wanted to do.

I remember that time Nog lost to Phil Davis. Then I remembered what Johnson did to Davis. Then I remembered Nog is closing in on 40, hasn't had a fight in 18 months, and has been injured multiple times during that 18 month layoff.

Sidenote: Isn't it weird that on the card Nog lost to Phil Davis, Rumble was co-main opposite Dan Hardy?

Final form Rumble weight is gonna be too much for Lil Nog........I think he can literally do what he wants to Lil Nog in this fight, should be a 2nd round TKO for Rumble if he puts on the pressure
