His guard isn't bad or great (average) and he's fairly active while in guard? I mean, that's what I'd assume. I'm not sure why you even care when you just insulted the guy, but k.

I think this will be like Smith's fight with Roger Gracie. Smith will look good in the first round but will eventually get dragged down and subbed by Neto.

Prediction: correct Neto   correct Submission   correct Round 1  

Smith has been saying some stupid things in interviews, like he is going to shoot in and take Neto down as soon as the fight starts to prove to everyone that he is not scared of his JJ. What is the UFC record for fastest submission? I think it might be broken this Saturday.
