Prediction: wrong Cerrone   wrong Decision  

Awesome fight. I think Cerrone has the better striking, and good enough grappling to avoid a sub. It's a pretty tough fight to call though, Nate's got a great shot.

I'll definitely be picking Cerrone, probably by decision. But I'm pretty surprised he's such a huge favorite here. This will be far from an easy fight.

Prediction: correct Diaz   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

Cerrone normally has the reach/height advantage but he won't this time, Nate will have to be careful of Cowboy's kicks. Gonna be a war, but I just can't wait for the staredown...it's gonna be nuts!

Prediction: correct Diaz   correct Decision  

I have come to a conclusion and I will be picking Diaz by decision. Both Cerrone's and diaz' striking looked incredible in their last fights against two great strikers! They both dropped there opponent and finished them off with a submission in the first. Looking at Diaz record though he's only been beaten by big wrestlers... I think this will be a great fight and won't be surprised if either one wins by any method.

i just think when diaz taunts a big headkick is coming his way and its cerrone who will be getting the submission. siver was supposed to be so tough and a great kickboxer. who is da man. cerrone easy.

Cerrone should take this in a decision, i don't see him finishing Diaz. He's a faster, more diverse striker with developing takedowns. I think it's a FOTN only with Cerrone dominating most of the action.

Diaz has only been finished by Hermes Franca in 2006...This is gonna be an incredible fight, but Cerrone will win via decision

Jeremy Jackson stopped him earlier in his career too, not really relevant today though. :)
