Tough call. Gustaffson did not look as I good as I imagined against Hammill, but he did do something nobody else did, finish him with strikes. I just have to decide if he can stuff the Janitor's TD's...

@Wolf:  I have him on my fantasy roster as well.  Hmm.  Anytime I have counted out the Janitor (except Jones), he has proved me wrong.  Just for the sake of loyalty, I'll go with the Janitor by decision.

Prediction: wrong Matyushenko   wrong  

This is shaping up to be a great card.

This is a tough fight to call for me. But with Matyushenko's 20 second KO of Brilz at UFC 129, I don't think I can make a prediction that doesn't have him winning. Just not sure what that prediction will be.

Gustafsson should take this.  His wrestling, and overall game really has come along quickly.  I think he'll light up Vladdy with shots that he doesn't even see coming.

It all depends on how agressive each fighter will be.  If Vladdy is agressive early he could get the KO, but if Gustafsson sets the pace early, he'll win a clear cut decision

Prediction: correct Gustafsson   correct KO/TKO   correct Round 1  

Gustafsson's only defeat is to Phil Davis by submission (thanks for the correction Minotauro). Matyshenko might be able to do the same thing, but Hamill tried and got KO'd for it. I think Gustafsson does the same thing to Matyushenko.

@ Minotauro - I apologize for the misinformation before. I was thinking of another fighter, or I had a momentary brain fart, take your pick. Anyways, I still think that Gustafsson will win this fight agaisnt Matyushenko.

I think he'll win too. Probably by knockout. I like Matyushenko though, I kind of hope he wins.

It would be hard for me to pick against The Janitor, but I think I'll go with what I think is the smarter pick and pick the younger Gustaffson.
