Prediction: wrong Menjivar   wrong  

Both Guys are incredible fighters but Easton has a near spotless record and a 6 inch reach advantage that gives him quite an edge.

Mike Easton is a rising star at 135 and trains out of the Alliance camp with Dominick Cruz. Menjivar got all he could handle from Prince Albert. Can I get a "Heeeeyyyyyyy!"

I don't know a lot about Mike Easton, having only seen a few of his fights on YouTube. I know more about Menjivar, and that is why I chose Easton. He seems primed for a breakout.

I honestly don't really care too much who wins, I'm a big Menjivar fan, so I hope he wins. But I have such high hopes for this fight! If  they go out there and fight, I'll be happy. Its gonna be a fun one!

@Mike, not to be a **** but I think its pretty contradictory that you just said you dont care who wins and then you said you hope Menjivar wins.

All I meant by that was that if Easton wins I really won't care. But I'd much prefer Menjivar get the W.

Prediction: wrong Menjivar   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

Though only 2 years older than Easton, Menjivar has been in this game a LOOOOOOONG time. I think he's on the cusp on potentially getting a title shot soon if he can string 2 more wins together. Easton's got a good record and does has a big reach advantage, but I like Menjivar here to bring "The Hulk" back down to earth a bit.

Easton had an exciting fight against papazian but he didnt look all that dominant in it, and papazian got finished in the first in his next fight. Menjivar has looked good in his past few fights so im picking him.

Prediction: wrong Menjivar   wrong Decision  

I agree with @Mufasatheking.  Easton did not impress me at all in his last fight.  Neither did Menjivar.  Tough fight to call but if I had to pick right now I'd pick Menjivar because of his experience.  Easton has not fought anyone as good as Menjivar.
