Prediction: wrong Almeida   wrong Decision  

Font has the better hands for sure, but Almeida has more tools to work with on the feet, but has shown holes in his defense. I think Font knocks Almeida out in the 2nd.

Prediction: wrong Almeida   wrong Decision  

Picking Almeida because he's a more well-rounded striker. Almeida has shown spotty defense in his last 3 fights, though, so Font could potentially capitalize on that.

Prediction: correct Font   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

Almeida has indeed shown defensive holes in his striking game, and that's what I'm banking on happening here. Font's last fight makes me second guess my pick, seeing as how Munhoz was able to land. This fight seems like a toss up for me, but it should be a fun fight while it lasts.

Should be a fun firefight, think Font has the tighter boxing and also a better chin.

Almeida only loses to champion material and I am not sure Rob Font belongs in that category.

I think Thomas is on the next level... I'm almost worried for Rob Font.

Finally got around to watching this fight.  Damn son, Font handled Almeida.  Great right hand, great head kick.
