I love all the submission picks...cause Benson Henderson has shown to be easily submitted!

Prediction: wrong Diaz   wrong Submission   wrong Round 3  

He's been submitted before and it can happen again. Also almost no one thought Jim Miller would have been submitted by Diaz.

Alistar Overeem is the only guy to ever submit Vitor Belfort, want to know why? He rocked Vitor and while Vitor was loopy he slapped on the guillotine, which is the same way I think Diaz will sub Nate.

I know what everyone's predicting at least subconsciously. Diaz wins via triangle choke and two middle fingers.

Also, Frankie at times was looking good for a few sub attempts across their two fights. If Nate gets it locked then he's taking the W

Yeah he was submitted way back in like 06 or 07 to The Rock's dad...I'm sure his ground game hasn't changed since then...

I like Bendo waaay more then Diaz but the way he's been fighting lately I'm not sure he'll win this. He needs to make this a full on wrestling match and GnP like he did in the Miller fight. The K1 Bendo that's shown up in the Edgar fights will not beat Diaz.

@danno By lately do you mean his last couple fights against Edgar?  Because before that he was destroying everyone in front of him.

Prediction: correct Henderson   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 5  

I don't think it's worth putting too much stock in the way Benson's looked in his past 2 fights, 2 fights that he won btw. First off nobody finishes Frankie and second nobody looks that good fighting Frankie. It's just the way it is and Frankie deserves all the credit in the world for it.

It's possible Nate wins this but he isn't going to finish Bendo. It's not a knock on Nate I just don't think there is a 155er on the planet that could finish Benson.

exactly @p4p it's like people think that because Henderson didn't look like himself against Frankie means that he won't be able to beat Diaz.  ANY win over Frankie is a good win.  The guy has practically no weaknesses except his size, which he uses as an advantage being the faster and more elusive fighter.  This is probably going to be one of those fights when both guys find themselves in bad situations, but I definitely see Benson coming out on top.  No split-decision here.
