Prediction: wrong Gracie   wrong Submission   wrong Round 1  

I actually think Mo will take Roger down to try and prove a point and that's where Roger will find an opening, however I agree that on paper it will be extremely difficult for Roger to get the takedown. But as we saw in Prangley fight and even the Randleman fight Roger can confuse people very well in the clinch, when you think he's going for a takedown he'll hit you with some knee's and his length makes it very easy to trip and tie up opponents. Overall he's very unpredictable in the clinch which will aid him tremendously against Mo.

Also in terms of striking I think people are giving Mo too much of an advantage, other then power both of them have fairly basic striking with Roger throwing more kicks and knee's and Mo being more of a power puncher. Neither of them have really faced anyone who excels at striking with the exception of Mo who fought and was stopped by Calvacante.

Might want to re-think your Lawal by sprawl and brawl predictions. I would lmao if he takes Gracie down and gets subbed within 30 seconds. Don't even need to click the think, just read it and you'll know why you may want to rethink.

Prediction: correct Lawal   wrong Decision  

King Mo will do the same thing to Gracie that he did to Mousasi. It's going to be a boring fight, but Lawal will take it. I'm hoping to see Gracie win this one by sumbission, but I don't know if it will happen or not.

I think Roger gets a sub here. If Mo plans on taking Roger down, then that's stupid on his part. Would only make it easier for Roger.

Roger Gracie isn't getting laid on. He's way too good on the ground. Possibly the best grappler of all time.

This is going to be a war. I'm going against my instincts and picking Gracie via sub.
