I dont really like this fight and I was hoping the 5 rounder was gonna be with two strikers, I think now Munoz will just try to hold Leban down for 5 rounds instead of 3, I dont think he is gonna try to stand with Leban

I agree to an extent, i think Munoz will hold him down for 2-3 round but i think Leben will catch himn late in the fight .

This is going to be very interesting.. especially if it goes into the 4th/5th.

Both have KO power.. If it ends earlier, speed will decide.  I think both will be cautious at first.

leben via 4th round submission...5 round fights test cardio, and i think munoz will eventually tire himself out attmepting takedown after takedown...leben will be losing on points at the time of submission..victory should put him on the top 3 contenders list..but i dont think he'd get next shot

If Leben wins he'll have wins over Wanderlei and Munoz is that really enough to be considered for a title shot?

I'm not a big fan of 5 rd fights in the 1st place because it favors "grinders"(stallers) and "point strikers"(love tappers), but I have no doubt this fight will not go 5 rds. And if it does, it will be an exciting 5 rds.

I think Munoz is gonna take this fight...he's looked great since moving to MW and he's gonna use that national championship wrestling pedigree to take Leben out
