Cool.  Nelson looked good against DeMarques.  Santiago is a good step up.

wow surprised they brought Jorge back . he looked pretty bad against UFC competition. But the guy has some good wins maybe he will make a good fight of it.

Uh Oh interesting fight.

I like it better than the original one. Santiago has a good ground game himself and also solid stand up. Should be a great fight.

Curtwag is right. Santiago has looked horrible in each of his recent UFC fights. Nelson should get this.

I think Justin Edwards was a much bigger challenge.

Gunnar via TKO for sure. He is the better striker, but the ground game will be evenly matched.

Nelson's toughest fight to date but Santiago will always be the guy who does well outside the UFC and then can't cut it when he's signed. In his defense though he always gets tough guys.

Like Legz said, let's be fair with Jorge Santiago. Guy gets fed to the dogs all the time.

I hope Nelson wins, I love watching karate in the Octagon.
