I like these changes. Both matchups make more sense, IMO.

Prediction: correct Smith   correct KO/TKO   correct Round 1  

This is a better fight.

Pulling for Rua but Smith has been looking good as of late even with the loss to santos and probably wins by early TKO if some Shogun counter overhand right magic doesn't happen. Rua is very shopworn at 36.

Prediction: wrong Rua   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

Should be a banger. The two new fights make more sense. Hoping Shogun KO always.

Prediction: correct Smith   correct KO/TKO   correct Round 1  

Could see this going either way. Leaning towards Smith since Shogun's old and coming off yet another long layoff with an injury, but Smith's chin is certainly crackable.
