Prediction: correct Sonnen   wrong Decision  


i'm picking sonnen by dec as the only people i can rememebr giviing stann trouble are high level wrestlers.  the phil davis fight comes to mind.  i know stann's improved since joining jackson's camp but still i think cheal will get him down almost at will.  i hope i'm wrong as i don't want cheal to even have the satisfaction of fighting silva again.  although he couldn't do it while doped up against an injured silva and so a "normal" sonnen vs a "healthy" silva would just be fun to watch...... for the full minute it lasted.

Prediction: correct Sonnen   wrong Decision  

Sonnen took down Anderson at will, I think he can do the same with Stann, he's not gonna test the stand-up, he just has to be careful of a triangle.

Prediction: wrong Stann   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

I think if Sonnen wants to fight like the champion that he claims he is.  He won't want to put on a Jon Fitch-esque performance.  I'm really pulling for Stann as I'm sure most people are, he's one of my favorite fighters.

Haha you had to know I'd be saying something about that!

And of course I did! I'll pick Stann against any one just because I like the quality of his personality :)

I agree, I can't pick against a War Hero.  Maybe a War Master, but no a War Hero. :)

I agree! If Tim Kennedy fought Brian Stann, I wouldn't even pick.

Im picking Stann simply based on him being a fellow Marine. I think he can KO Sonnen anyway as long as he stays on his feet

Would love to see stann get the KO/TKO but I think Sonnen grinds out the decision

Prediction: wrong Stann   wrong Submission   wrong Round 3  

Stann is on fire and has the best strategist in MMA in his corner. I think Sonnen's time away from the octagon hurts him. Stann is much more mentally tough than Chael, i think he finally meets his match and goes down in another submission loss

It's a long shot, but I'm betting on Stann surprising Chael with a Stars & Stripes hyper combo.

It will be a repeat of Phil Davis vs Stann.  Not good for Stann.

@geez, I was going to say the same thing, just minus the attempted armbar at the end.

I might regret this later but Stann has the tools to beat Sonnen

Prediction: correct Sonnen   wrong KO/TKO   correct Round 2  

I think Stann is overrated and built his name in part on the quick Leben knockout. Sonnen has faced and beaten better.
