Prediction: wrong Lauzon   wrong Submission   wrong Round 1  

Would it be racism if I compared Joe Lauzon to Fedor? The word racism gets thrown around way too ******* much. In situations that are nowhere near offensive. If he'd have said that MJ reminded him of Melvin because they both had equally greasy hair and equally large nostrils that were sucking up all the white mans air, I could understand the accusation.

Yeah but I made the point that MJ and Guillards only real correlation is that they're black...their fighting style is not similar at all. And your Lauzon/Fedor comparison has no point or context...

I like Johnson but Lauzon is going to man handle him.

Prediction: wrong Lauzon   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

This is his pink slip fight, his best chance of shocking everyone including the bosses at the UFC would by winning would be to try and keep the fight standing as long as possible. He has power in his hands and he could knock Lauzon out. I don't see him being able to keep this fight standing and I don't think he'll make it to third round.

They're both wildly inconsistent in the UFC. If you think the only correlation between two people is their race, I've got news for you, by definition... you're the racist.

Damn, Cthulu you wrapped me up...ooh hoo. You found 1 more thing that they and 30 others have in common, the comparison is validated then. 

Stop making arguments for other people that can't back up their opinion, no one was addressing you. I'm glad you took time out of jacking off to snuff videos to post your opinion though.

You can draw a small corelation between the two in that the weakest part of both guillard and johnsons game is their submissions. That is a very strong part of Lauzon's game that he will likely exploit againt Johnson.

I don't make generalizations about an entire race of people. It's your job to pretend that I'm doing that, and you're damn good at your job. Yeah, I meant all black people were wildly inconsistent, because when talking about an entire race of people I use the word "both" to define them. Back to white knuckling (racist undertones?) it to people getting disemboweled now.

when i  said Johnson was like Guillard i didn't man because he's black it's because they're both strikers that have had problems with grapplers and submission defense.  this is really the only thing they have in common.

Lauzon should win, but I don't like this match making.  It seems like they're trying to give Lauzon a step back after dropping 2 of 3, only Johnson isn't some borderline can like Reudiger or Warburton.  I hope Lauzon isn't too confident and overly aggressive.  He should win, but he needs to be smart out there.

Lauzon needs to avoid the left head kick, the best weapon of Southpaw stances and the one that KTFO'd him against Pettis. If he can avoid that, he takes it easy.

If anyone looks at fightmetric for Johnson's TDD is at 74% but it is over skewed because of Rollers ****** 2/12 TDs and Brookins 3/13 TDs. He's not that great at defending takedowns so don't get confused.
