Prediction: wrong Sandro   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

Sandro is going to show us his trademark uppercut that puts JDS to shame.

Prediction: wrong Sandro   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 4  

Could be a really entertaining grappling match, but given Hioki's bad decision making, I fully expect Marlon Sandro to go 'naner gumball all over his chin Kanehara style.

Prediction: wrong Sandro   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

I think you guys are right.  Big Hioki fan, but skeptical he can handle Sandro's power.

Prediction: correct Hioki   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

Don't be surprised to see Hioki come with a good gameplan and get to the ground and get the sub. He's slick.

Prediction: wrong Sandro   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 4  

Dont be surprised to see Hioki come with a good gameplan?  I think that would be impossible, seeing as he choses his amy muay thai skills over BJJ most times.  If he submits Sandro, I wouldn't be surprised, his BJJ is probably the best in the whole division; slick describes him better than anything I imagine.  But a game planner he is not.  I only hope for his sake that Sandros highlight reel scares him into pursuing the takedown in the first 30 seconds of every round.  If not, we may bare witness to a KO so disturbing, it goes viral video in a way that makes Anthony Pettis jealous.  Kinda like this one.

Prediction: wrong Sandro   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

Sandro can't knock everyone on the planet out in the first round, but I'm not going to bet against it with Hioki and his less developed striking.
