Prediction: correct Mousasi   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

Excellent co-main for Stockholm. Mousasi is still a young contender, while Hendo is on his way out. Changing of the guard here.

Prediction: correct Mousasi   wrong Decision  

Mousasi may not be top 5 at the moment but he can beat an ever vigilant Dan Henderson no doubts there.

This will be at 185 I assume? Dan faded hard last time he was at that weight, so he might have one round to try and get this done.

@skell Not really. The guard done changeth. Happened when he lost 4 of his last 5 to men half a decade or more younger than him.

Prediction: correct Mousasi   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

Moose is just too smart to get caught by the slowest and most predictable fighter on the roster ... I think he plays it safe for a round, peppers him from the outside to break him down a bit and then submit him in the second.

unfortunately although two big names in the weight class this fight doesn't thrill me in the least bit.

Moose is to careful to get sucked in to Dan's came.  I see a really boring UD coming for Mousasi

Awesome name recognition, but I think this will be a pretty one sided fight. Moose is too fast and won't stand and trade with Hendo.

Prediction: correct Mousasi   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

Should he? He's got a (well earned) high salary-grade (in comparison) and he's fought the who's who of MMA ... who would you have him matched up against? Mayhem Miller?

Also, he claims he's gunning for the belt (and I believe him), you don't get fast-tracked to a title shot by beating Ed Herman (and given his age, I can imagine he wants one last, as short as possible, route to a title shot).

I'm pretty sure easy fights aren't what he's looking for right now.

There should be little doubt that Mousasi will be able to beat 44 year old Hendo.

Ya, Mousasi really should have this in the bag. I'd be shocked by a Hendo win at this point.

I would not be shocked as he could easily end it like he did with Shogun.

Hendo could still catch him, but I see Mousasi putting a pretty vicious beating on him, ending in a merciful submission.

Either Mousassi picks him apart or Dan levels him. Should be interesting.

Prediction: correct Mousasi   wrong Decision  

Gegard picks him apart and stays away from his power punch.  Only way Dan can win this is if he can put him up against the cage and take him down and keep him there.  Not going to happen Mousasi win by UD.
