I can't wait for this one! I hope Manhoef gives him his first KO loss, and I think he can. The most probable outcome is a decision victory for Kennedy, but no way in hell I pick against Manhoef, lol.

I can't go against Kennedy for two reasons: Special Forces and Manhoef's lack there of a ground game

Prediction: correct Kennedy   correct Submission   correct Round 1  

Kennedy by submission.  I think his stand-up is good enough to close the distance and score the take down.  As soon as that happens, we all know his submission game is more than good enough to submit Manhoef.  Kennedy made his start with Team ROC, so naturally I'm hoping he can pull off the win.

Prediction: correct Kennedy   correct Submission   wrong Round 2  

It's pretty confirmed that Melvin Manhoef will be fighting Tim Kennedy.

I think as long as Kennedy gets this fight to the ground he wins this fight.
On the other hand I'd like to see a highlight reel KO from Manhoef.

I'm thinking a second round submission for Kennedy.

Kennedy should look to take this fight down quickly. That is if he values his walking ability.

The way Tim Kennedy is talking lately, it sounds like he is going to try to test Manheof's striking.  I'm going to assume he is joking, otherwise it's going to be one more pick down the drain.

If Kennedy fights smart this should be all his. Side note that Manhoef has been KTFO'd in MMA+K1 several times recently and at 34 years old I don't want to see his lights keep getting turned out.

I hoping Manhoef busts out the leg kicks he used against Lawlor, but with a better result.

He throws to many leg kicks against Kennedy and he will get taken down. Look for Manhoef to be a little cautious and watching for the TD. Over aggression from Manhoef would surely lead to a quick TD and submission loss.

I agree, Manhoef's wrestling clearly has improved a lot, and his striking looked as good as ever. If he continues to improve like this, he could be a contender. I knew Kennedy would get that RNC eventually. I don't know what I was thinking when I picked third round submission though, lol. I hope they give Manhoef to someone he can KO, like Rockhold or Lawler again.
