Viana's excellent TDD will make this interesting but I have Dillashaw via UD.

@bman- Dillashaw has better takedowns than Duran does.

Prediction: wrong Viana   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

I really really love this matchup much more than the original. I think Viana did a great job his past fights, and this will really be a challenge. As you other said, TJ probably gonna use his wrestling, but he still can't underestimate Vianas TDD.

Viana swings are pretty damn hard when they connect, and do not forget that TJ was KOed by Dodson. I really think Viana got more power than Dodson, so everything can happen if he connects with those overhands.

But afterall TJ also sticks to his gameplans very good, so TJ will focus 100% at his wrestling, so I think we will see alot of clinch work this fight. :)

Im still not sure who to pick, in my head its a 50/50

Dillashaw is the safe pick but I'm hoping Wolverine can pull it off. Viana is a very exciting fighter with a bright future, it's unfortunate that he's been given a wrestler this early on.

Prediction: wrong Viana   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

Viana will be my underdog pick for this card. I think he will surprise us all. Dillashaw is taking this fight short notice but you have to factor in that Mendes AND Benavidez are also fighting so the camp must be fully focused on them performing.

I see TJ coming in too ****y and confident from his last win and get smashed. He was a huge favorite against Tamura because Mitch Gagnon pulled out last minute. Now the roles have reversed and yet he is still massively favored. Worth a straight bet at these odds.

Don't know why I have Viana via sub, I will change it. But I do think Viana may win via KO.. And that is what I will end up picking.

I've gone back and forth between picking the method for Viana to win. Pretty sure I've had all 3 methods at some point. Very underrated, IMO

Prediction: correct Dillashaw   wrong Decision  

He is underrated and I think this fight will be much closer than people think. However, Viana had trouble with the wrestling of John Teixeira and Dillashaw's standup has improved dramatically.

Prediction: correct Dillashaw   wrong Decision  

I'd love to know how the hell Dillashaw is THAT big of a favorite! I have him winning too, but Viana ain't chump change here. Very interesting, Viana's striking looked really good in his last fight, but Dillashaw will probably keep him held down the whole fight.

Prediction: wrong Viana   wrong Decision  

In Viana's defense, he was fighting above his weight class against Texeira and Texeira missed weight by like 5 lbs. The safe money is on Dillashaw, but I'm taking a gamble on Viana.
