Interesting booking here. UFC is not giving any kind of free ride to Brookins to build him up... this is right into the deep end. And I think it's all Koch in this fight.

Prediction: correct Koch   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

Koch is gonna put him to sleep whether by choke or KO I'm not sure, I don't think Brookin's wrestling is good enough to keep Koch down.

@wolfman, idk about that, that season had some decent guys. Nam Phan, Brookins and Mike Johnson will all do decently well in the UFC. Cody Mckenzie has a chance if he can improve his striking, he actually is a good grappler.

However, Koch will destroy Brookins. I like this fight, it's a good coming out party for New Breed.

And Brookins has some ****** striking defence..! As Johnson showed in that first round of their fight if he does that against Koch hes going out.

Prediction: correct Koch   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

Brookins and Koch both have some learning to do compared with most other fighters, but I believe brookins will work a superior ground game early and earn a submission of the night.

If I'm not mistaken, wasn't Brookins rocked several times in the TUF finale by Johnson? I could see Koch finishing what Johnson started, especially if the fight goes anything like his last one, where he got the KO

I'll be picking Koch to finish, but I think Brookins can make it out of the 1st.

Prediction: correct Koch   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

Brookins is getting finished quick here imo.  Koch is a monster and his only loss is to the #2 consensus FW, Chad Mendes.  With the way Koch has been finishing people, and Brookins lack of striking defense, I think this spells a quick night for Mr. Brookins.  I like Brookins too, I'm surprised they are throwing him to the dogs so quick.
