Well sir I must admit you have provided some skewed stats for me. You provided a 5-4 record conviently beginning on a 2 loss streak in 2007 otherwise it would be 5-2 in the last 2 and half years with losses coming from frank mir and number 1 contender JDS, or we could back a year prior to the losing streak (which is made up of cheick kongo and gabe gonzaga) and use a streak of 5 knockouts including wandy, minowaman, and josh barnett. Therein lies the inherent flaws of utilizing stats in an argument so let us break off until the fight occurs. Although if you are interested I would like to suggest a friendly bet. The winner selecting an image of his victorious fighter for the loser to use for his profile pic for a week or month, what say you jersey?

Pat Barry has cardio, he just happened to break his hand and foot as he was brutilizing Cro Cop for a full round..... and he was fighting his "idol" (perhaps allistair overeem should be his new idol) which left him awstruck. Barry is well recognized for his striking and has tons of potential, the guy is a freak athlete. As for the fight, Schaub uses his speed, power, and technique in route to a 2nd rd tko.

its a bet!! lol... and the purpose of the "skewed" stats was his ufc tenure...but i also forgot the fight before gonzaga, which was a win vs eddie sanchez...so i was mistaken, but not about the outcome...schaub wins and asserts himself into heavyweight contender status

Hey I may be wrong, I have counted Schaub out before and he suprised the hell out of me. But I belive the killer that was Cro Cop in pride is just waiting to be reawoken and give us another big head kick KO.

Prediction: correct Schaub   wrong Decision  

I've picked Schaub in every fight I've seen him in because I think he's got so much potential with his gifted athleticism.  Was pretty shocked when Nelson put him down.  But since then he's looked very good stopping Tuchscherer and pretty much dominating Gonzaga.  Schaub's fast, has good hands, and great cardio.  He looked like he had a decent ground game too when fighting on TUF 10.

Cro Cop on the other hand looks like he's just looking for a payday these days.  His fight against Mir was one of the worst performances I've ever seen from a fighter of Cro Cop's level.  It's the only time I've seen a knockout and thought "Finally it's over!"  I'm not bashing Cro Cop by any means, because he was once an incredible fighter with great killer instinct.  His best days are absolutely behind him though and the HW division has evolved way past him.

Schaub wins this fight by either a lopsided UD or a TKO, haven't decided.

Prediction: correct Schaub   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

Im going to have to use some of Jersey's MMAth and choose Schaub.  Cro Cop lost to Gonzaga, Schaub dominated Gonzaga.  Cro Cop got KO'd his last time out, and Schaub defiantly has KO power.  I love Cro Cop, so I think he can survive round 1 before getting chin checked.
