Prediction: correct Shlemenko   wrong Decision  

I think both guys will end up tired, and Falcao will be more tired.

Prediction: correct Shlemenko   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 4  

Yeah. The only reason I picked a finish is because Falcao always gasses around the end of the second/beginning of the third.

I think it will be close in the first two and a half rounds but I think Falcao gasses late and gets finished.

Prediction: correct Shlemenko   wrong Decision  

I would give the decision to Falcao if this was a 3 round fight. I think he might be able to take Shlemenko down for the first 2 rounds. I see him fading in the later rounds like he did in his past Bellator fights. Also, I did not like how disrespectful he was at the weigh ins... I don't get the whole cellphone thing. I'm switching to Shlemenko by decision.

Shlemenko doesn't look to impressed with the cell phone gimmick, I think Falcao will be in trouble later in the fight as well

Changed my pick. I think Falcao was just at 50% in the tourney and he lets his hands go against Shlemenko. It will be epic.
