Boooom goes the dynamite, that is JDS's uppercut. I'm tend to listen to JDS and change to 2nd round KO like @wolfmanhowl but it does not matter all that matters for me is WAR JDS !!!

I think JDS will get close to a finish in the first but will be weary of Mirs ground game so I dont think he'll go straight for the ground and pound to finish in the first. Second round TKO.

JDS will finish in the first. He won't make the mistake Nog made.

@Nick: Agreed.  I was tempted to change it to the second round, but I don't see it lasting that long.

Prediction: correct dos Santos   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

All of his KO's are in the 1st round.

Frank Mir has been KO'd 5 times. 4 of which were in the 1st.


With that said, I'm not saying it won't go to the 2nd... but with the history of JDS KO's and Mir's chin, I wouldn't bet on it.

I don't get how people are predicting a round 2 KO finish, it HAS to be round 1. Mir won't be able to survive a full round with him lol.

Well JDS predicted it himself so I'll go with that now, although Oldnick's post makes all the sense in the world...

Prediction: correct dos Santos   correct KO/TKO   correct Round 2  

This fight is tough for me as I have been a long time fan of both fighters.  When I started to follow the UFC, JDS had recently KO'd Werdum and Mir had just submitted Lesnar...

I've switched my pick so many times already - going with the TKO for JDS but hoping to see another highlight reel submission from Mir.
