Prediction: wrong McCorkle   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

This is one of the coolest fights on 124.

Mental/intimidation edge:  McCorkle. Struve got more than he bargained for when he started talking smack.

Standup edge: Struve. He's got holes and can get hit (see Roy Nelson) but overall pretty good technique.

Ground edge: Probably Struve. McCorkle subbed Hunt with a basic move. But Struve is known for his BJJ.

Strength edge:  McCorkle. Struve is a bit lanky and McCorkle might be able to overpower him and GNP.

Intangibles: ???

Overall my pick is McCorkle even though Struve probably has better technique, I think McCorkle will overpower him.
