Prediction: wrong Cané   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

Switched to Cane...It is set-up for him to win... Nedkov is coming off injury and hasn't fought in 15 months, His win over Travis Wiuff is because he knee'd him in the balls at least 10 times...(not kidding it was really that much). Yeah he beat Randleman, but I am not going to give him much credit for that since his record 17-16 and his last fight (win) in May of 2010 was against a guy (Augustin Helgiu) who was debuting in his first MMA fight in his career... UFC shows Luis Canes takedown defense @ 100% in all 6 of his bouts in the UFC.

Prediction: wrong Cané   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

@Wolfman I use that theory too! But in this case through my review of both fighters I doubt Nedkov more and he is not an american wrestler.... Last Guy overseas(Karlos Vemola) with super aggression and wrestling credentials, but a questionable gas tank...Got outgrappled and beat up by the bigger, stronger, and more conditioned brazilian(Markes)

I'm not a huge believer in Cane but its hard to pick someone who went to a SD with Kevin Randleman.

Why is this on the main card? I'd much rather see Paul Harris taking another limb home with him.

@mmapicker. you got me doubting again. i still can't get over that cane got destroyed by lil nog and cyrille d. and then beat up a unenthusiastic marshall who offered no defense.  i'm going to see how many medals the bulgarian wrestling team has in the olympics. i'm serious. i'm gonna dig that deep. the bulgarians are great at weightlifting correct. the russian and bulgarians i think clean up in that sport. i just punched my door. it felt good. arrgghhh on this fight.

I wanted to pick Nedkov, but his second-to-last fight was split decisioning Kevin Randelman in 2009.

Yeah Randleman lost like his last 9 out of 10, he isn't the former UFC champ anymore, he sucks now.

Prediction: correct Nedkov   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

I just never bought into the Cane hype, and I still don't. I would say this is one of my less confident picks though as we haven't seen Nedkov in action yet. He should at least be able to wrestle him to a decision. And Cane won't sub him I don't think since Nedkov also has a BJJ BB. Cane's TDD numbers are pretty misleading, considering he's never fought a wrestler.
