Prediction: correct Bader correct Decision

I'm not sold on the OSP hype while people fail to realize Bader has only lost to some of the best in the world a fluke loss to Ortiz. Losses to Jones, Machida and Taxiera are hardly shameful.

But OSP is 'splosive.

I think OSP has real finishing power and is a freak, but he's not very good at fighting IMO.

Bader should take it if he's not a dumbass in there.

Prediction: correct Bader correct Decision

@skelli, I agree ... especially now it seems Bader has finally come to terms with the fact that he's not a striker and that the KO's he used to get were more opposition talent-level based than an actual testament to how Bruce Lee he is.

I think he moves OSP around as he pleases ...

If OSP tries the same gameplan he used against Jimmo, he's going to get ragdolled and pounded out.

Bader by GnP TKO.

When this fight first got announced, I wasn't a fan of the main event spot. Now I'm coming around to it. This being a 5 rounder is very interesting.

If this goes out of the 3rd round, Bader all day long.

BUT, OSP do got some good TD, and I think Bader will get very surprised if he can't take OSP down. Bader is also not that good from his back, so if OSP ends on top, GNP is coming.

I was very surprised with Baders cardio in his last fight, and he did a better job than ever by mixing his game up.

Bader by cardio and gameplan. OSP by Brawl and pure power.

Prediction: wrong St. Preux wrong KO/TKO wrong Round 2

Bader doesn't seem to get any better when I see him fight. He was more patient in his last fight but his skills haven't really ever changed. Big overhand right and double leg. OSP has a lot more in his arsenal and he's really looking comfortable lately. Earlier in his career I thought his nerves got to him too much. He's getting better every time out as well. OSP takes it.

St. Preux has a lot of hype behind him but honestly he has to get through the gatekeeper Bader and I gotta go with my local talent here, I think St. Preux doesn't get through that gate.

OSP is quite the athletic specimen, but if Moose can take him down and control him on the ground, Bader can.

Prediction: correct Bader correct Decision

Was watching their previous fights to brush up on my research for this fight and one thing I always see with OSP is people can back him up and press him against the cage. I think Bader will do the same thing here. OSP has decent body kicks and power but he still doesn't understand range or how to circle. Bader will wear him out during this 5 round fight as long as he survives the early onslaught.

Not 100% sure Bader can pull this off. He gasses a lot and has a pretty weak chin.

Prediction: wrong St. Preux wrong KO/TKO wrong Round 2

OSP has the division's second longest reach and is a versatile enough fighter to avoid getting wrestle ****d by Bader. There's a better chance Bader grinds him to a decision but I'm gambling on an OSP finish early.

Bader's looked really impressive recently. He looks very motivated when he goes out. Trains with Dolloway and both are improving.

I thought Bader would knock him out in the 3rd round but i knew Bader was going to win. Better wrestling, better cardio, and i thought the stand up would be much closer then everyone thought.
