Prediction: correct Henderson   wrong Decision  

@jay yeah i agree, and dan does seem to really try to land that over hand right...obviously it usually works for him, but it does cause him to headhunt a lil bit too much sometimes

Prediction: wrong Emelianenko   wrong Submission   wrong Round 3  

@ thiagosilva - I just don't see it happening. I wouldn't be surprised if it did, but don't be surprised if it doesn't.

There's only 2 ways this fight is going to end. Hendo by KO or Fedor by submission, and I'm still going back and forth on it because I really like both fighters, and they're both legends of the sport as far as I'm concerned.

I don't care what anybody says to try and discredit either fighter, both of them have done things in the sport that no other fighter has ever done at this point in MMA.

You might be right Thiago. I'm going to be going back and forth until the fight actually happens. Once I make my pick though, I'm sticking with it.

Prediction: wrong Emelianenko   wrong Submission   wrong Round 3  

Fedor took the best that Arlovski and Rogers had to offer, and still came out on top, and Fedor took a Cro-Cop LHK, and just kept coming forward, so it is very possible that Fedor could take Hendo's best punch and still come out on top.

Then the other argument. Noone can survive the "H-Bomb". Like I said, I'll be going back and forth. If I had to pick right now, I'm leaning towards Hendo.

I really dont think you can compare Arlovski and Rogers with Hendo.. Hendo is 100 times the fighter they are/were... If Fedor thinks he can survive a H-Bomb hes in for a lot of trouble!

Prediction: wrong Emelianenko   wrong Submission   wrong Round 3  

The "H-Bomb" is definitely dangerous at 205 and 185, but will it still have the same effect at HW? You also have to remember that Hendo lost to Big Nog by submission. A fighter who Fedor beat decisively twice. Hendo also lost to Ricardo Arona. Another fighter Fedor has beaten. Now I know MMAth doesn't work all the time. Also Hendo lost to Jake Shields. Shields fights at 170 or 185.

Fedor has lost two in row. It's been argued that Fedor's best days are now behind him, while Hendo is back on the rise. Fedor cuts easily.

These are the main reasons that I keep going back and forth on this fights.

Prediction: correct Henderson   correct KO/TKO   correct Round 1  

I think it's interesting to see that most people on this forum picked Hendo, but most of the total picks are for Fedor... Now for predictions: Hendo lands the H-bomb...lights out for Fedor.  Fedor retires.  Hendo goes back down LHW.
