Prediction: wrong Romero   wrong Submission   wrong Round 1  

I like Kingsbu, but he's never really looked that great inside the cage. He was really funny on tuf, but I think he gets tapped here early, and is booted from Dana's roster.

Prediction: correct Kingsbury   wrong Decision  

Last Kingsbury fight he was very impressive, I can tell he has applied himself to MMA since his stint on TUF. I will take him in this one.

Prediction: wrong Romero   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

Definitely picking Romero by submission in this fight.  The guy submitted Seth Petruzelli in his UFC debut after taking a serious beating.  In another organization he also submitted James McSweeney.  Only loss is a DQ as well.

An interesting little grapple fight to keep things interesting. But Kingsbury finishes this in the 2nd.

Prediction: wrong Romero   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

Kingsbury split decisioned Razaak al-Hasaan. Romero at least beat the guy who killed Elite XC. After a huge adrenalin dump in his fight against Petruzelli, Romero returns to King of the Cage form and taps Kingsbury with an armbar with a transition as follows: side control -> mount -> s-mount -> armbar.

Should be a good fight. Both decent prospects, I'm taking Ricardo Romero. He's basically undefeated and he's got solid wrestling where he's able to gnp and work out some submissions.

Prediction: correct Kingsbury   wrong Decision  

I'm going with Kingsbury because he doesn't seem particularly susceptible to submissions, will have a reach advantage, and has more UFC experience.
