Prediction: correct Rockhold   wrong Decision  

Think that Rockhold is just going to be too well rounded for Costa.

Prediction: correct Rockhold   wrong Submission   wrong Round 4  

Rockhold always has such large gaps of time between his fights. He fought for like a total of one minute in 2013!

Prediction: correct Rockhold   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

How does this happen in MMA two top 15 fighters maincarding the event have records of complete novices 10-2 vs 12-3....and ones 29 the others 33....my god its like they never fight.

Kinda surprised Rockhold is such a big favorite, I think he has the slight edge but Phillipou is a live dog here and will probably have good odds in vegas.

Prediction: correct Rockhold   wrong Decision  

I think the odds are mostly based on Philippou's last fight against Carmont. He got dominated on the ground and couldn't stay upright the whole fight.

Prediction: correct Rockhold   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

Rockhold will finish Costa in under 3 rounds, submission or knockout whatever he wants. Probably going to go Rockhold round 2/3 Submission on my pick. This is a guy who beat Jacare and Tim Kennedy, a guy who trains with Cormier and Cain on the regular. I won't forget how he wrecked Jardine the way Mousasi couldn't either.

Rockhole looked great vs Jacare, if he can find that again he fill beat Costa via fantastic human specimen-ism.

Prediction: correct Rockhold   wrong Decision  

Rockhold should be able to outwrestle Philippou here. Costas is a tough bastard and we know he's a great boxer, but I just don't see Rockhold losing again.
