Prediction: correct Cerrone   wrong Decision  

It is really hard for me to pick against Cerrone. After his last few fights, I'm guessing he won't be the betting favorite.

It's really hard for me to pick Cerrone, especially against an underrated guy like Dunham (who should have had the W over Dos Anjos btw)

Dunham bet RDA (in my eyes), RDA beat Cerrone.  1+1= I still can't pick against Cerrone.

Gotta agree with Benjamin on this one. Gonna take Cerrone, but I really don't know why. Well, I mean, I do, but it's not logical. It's basically: WEC never die! And that's my reasoning. If Cerrone could get his crap together he could get a title shot by the end of next year,  but he just can't seem to get it going. It's like he lost his mojo.

Cowboy has never lost back to back fights and I don't think he'll start here.

Is it weird that this has been a dream fight of mine for a while? I think their styles clash nicely. Great fight though.

Dunham is game as ****, arguably beat RDA, and gave TJ Grant his toughest fight since his drop from 170. Cerrone on the other hand, has looked like **** ever since Nate Diaz took his soul. I got Dunham in a decision.

I think Dunham should be ranked in the top 5 or 10 right now after what should have been a decision win over RDA. Oh well. One of these dudes has to lose. I love em both, but leaning toward Dunham.

Prediction: wrong Dunham   wrong Decision  

Considering most everyone here thinks Evan Dunham beat Sean Sherk and Anjos, I think he's the slight favorite. Cerrone is a mental case though, depending on his demeanor the leading weeks of the fight will probably impact my choice.

I really like Dunham in this fight.

Prediction: wrong Dunham   wrong Decision  

He hasn't looked bad in a while, I think he won his last fight and Cerrone hasn't looked good in a while. 

This is one of the biggest fights in Dunham's career and I hope he takes advantage of this opportunity.

I think that this is a VERY close fight. Perfect matchup to make, and I love the fact that both of these guys are coming off of RDA Losses (even though Dunham should have won) but I got Dunham for the win.

Prediction: wrong Dunham   wrong Decision  

Funny, a year ago I'd pick Cerrone to dismantle Dunham without even blinking (well, not dismantle, but you get my drift) ... now, not so much ... Cerrone looks like he's started to seriously second doubt himself since the Diaz fight and the obliteration by Pettis and clear cut loss to Dos Anjos aren't helping matters ...

Dude used to be fearless, I guess a near-death experience stringed along with 3 major beat downs can take some of your mojo out of you ...

Prediction: correct Cerrone   wrong Decision  

Both guys last loss came from Raphael Dos Anjos that is mildly humorous... It's funny how quickly Cerrone gets scheduled for another fight even when he loses or has a terrible showing and other guys that have phenomenal performances can get put on the shelf for months. Not that I am complaining I like Donald Cerrone's fights. However his last fight he was capable of so much more and he was never able to get anything off it seemed and he seemed to lack the drive it took to want to beat Dos Anjos. Dunham is in kind of the same boat he has had hot and cold fights as well but also capable of performing well depending on where he is that night. At this point in time I am pulling for Cerrone he has the reach and height advantage and a bit more seniority under his belt as well as a year younger.
