Okami looked very lackluster in his win against Buddy Roberts while I think Alan Belcher is trying much harder to make a move for that contender shot.

If Dean Lister can't sub Okami (he never got close to even setting up a sub), there is no chance Belcher can. Okami's top game is suffocating. Standing I give Okami the edge as long as he doesn't do something stupid.

Since their first fight, Belcher is ever improving, while Okami just isn't the same. I quite honestly give Belcher the advantage everywhere the fight could go, except maybe the clinch up against the cage.

I feel like kind of a ****** for saying it, but i just think Belcher's slightly overrated. Then again, not very many fighters have ever been the same after fighting AS, and Okami hasn't really impressed since that fight. For now, I have Okami by decision.

I don't see Belcher ever being champion, I just think he beats most people the UFC puts infront of him .... until he meets Bisping, then hes getting ****** up.

I think Belcher would have a better shot in that fight, that would be a good one though. If Okami fights like he is capable of, then this is his fight. But who knows, i just think Okami was seriously affected from fighting Anderson.

I think he fought Anderson too soon, didn't have enough experience with the higher level guys leading up to that fight. If he really sticks to HIS gameplan and doesn't try to fight here Belcher wants to fight then I think Okami has somewhat of a chance, but I don't know. Okami just hasn't looked great to me lately.

Yeah, the key here is for him to stick to his gameplan. Which is to be boring and wear Belcher out by taking him down and using his top control. If he stands with Belcher for an extended period of time, then he's getting knocked out.

Great Matchmaking. Realistically, its not how high on the ladder you are, but which way you're going. Belcher is improving, Okami is not. Belcher has something to prove, while there isnt much left for Okami to fight for as long as Chael, Anderson are in the divison.

I'm not entirely sure Belcher can deal with Okami's wrestling, but I think it's Belcher's time right now.

Okami needs to wrestle belcher. belcher just wont be able to handle the kind of grappling okami has and it will be a slightly better version of their first fight.

Just like Belcher couldn't handle Palhares's grappling, right? Belcher by TKO.

No one seems to get that Belcher isn't all that good. If you ONLY train to escape leg locks, then come the fight, you can PROBABLY escape a leg lock. That's what he did. What else was Palhares going to get him with? The point is, Palhares was a one trick pony, and Belcher just exposed him. Okami is going to use his size and strength to hold him down and beat on him

I don't think Belcher exposed Paul Harris b/c it's safe to say almost everyone knew he was a "one-trick poney".

I think that this rematch is a very interesting fight that could go either way. Belcher has improved his overall game 10 fold from the last time that he faced Okami, especially his ground game and take-down defense. Okami has improve on his stand-up, but he's still pretty much the same fighter that he was the last time he faced Belcher, but Okami is also nearing the downhill slide of his career. So the questions are, does Okami still have some great fights left in him?, How much more improvement will we see in Belcher's overall fight game?, Is Okami on the downhill slide of his career?, and Who really has the upper-hand in this fight?

^^^Because he beat Palhares. I don't think they've seen some of his older losses, since they were so long ago.
