He expected the same with Lesnar.. Although this fight probably will be a war with Velasquez getting a late tko..

@Thiago, I agree, but I'm thinking third round tko

If Cain wasn't coming off over a year long layoff I'd take him, but I think JDS takes this first of many fights between the 2 of them!

Another fight where I'm rooting/hoping that Rashad's lack of ring rust is a continuing trend. Longer the fight goes, the more it favors Velasquez I think although even his legendary cardio could also suffer from the layoff. Hope not tho.

I don't see anyway at all this fight goes to the judges.

I still haven't decided who I'm taking... it's going to be a great fight, and I also do not see this going to the judges

I didn't think there was anyway in hell the Carwin/JDS fight would have went to the judges either...sometimes it just happens!
