Prediction: correct Overeem   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

Semantics aside, I'm just glad teammates/former teammates from Jackson's are usually willing to throw down, and at this point of their careers I think this fight makes a lot of sense.

Both only have a few years left in them.

Prediction: correct Overeem   correct KO/TKO   correct Round 2  

Overeem weathers the storm in the first and take a finish in the second or third.

Overeem usually doesn't weather storms so I see either of them getting KOed in the 1st.

^True, i was gonna say, it's usually Overeem that can only last for a round, not Andrei.

Prediction: correct Overeem   correct KO/TKO   correct Round 2  

I bet no more than 2 punches are thrown in the first 4 minutes. 

EconoReem + how well they know each other will make them both super cautious. I'm sure each of them has rung the other's bell once or twice sparring so they're both aware of what the other likes to do.

More and more it seems to me that if you put any top ten heavyweight in against any other top ten heavyweight that its basically a coin toss which one knocks out the other. This makes them hard to rank, and their fights very hard to pick.

This is one of those fights where I don't want either guy to lose. Unfortunately some body is getting knocked the **** out. Arvloski's chin will be his problem and Ubers inability to take to much damage will be his. Its a damn toss up

Teammate vs teammate. Arlovski is pumped and is going to look for the early KO. Overeem keeps his emotions in check, counter strikes Arlovski for a KO

Can't stand overeem but he looked great in his last fight. Earns his title shot after this fight.
