Prediction: correct Struve   wrong Submission   correct Round 2  


herman getting way too much credit for beating JOE. the guy is 0-2 (in (ufc)and has no cardio. plus i think i saw he did not even have a fight for 3 years before he got into the ufc. i'll double check that. actually it was 4 and 1/2 years.

@Wolf I don't think it's giving Herman credit......It's more to do with the fact that when you land on Struve he buckles. I think his height and overall frame is a real disadvantage when it comes to taking shots!

herman had the look at the weigh-ins so for me, when I saw him at the weigh-ins I knew Struve was done, lol.  Or At Least I freaking Hope so.

@ wolf not true he had 3 fights in 2010 before making his UFC debut in 2011, but he is a unusual guy I watched the JOE fight again and Rogan said Herman faught his first 13 fights without being in a gym or even train on regular basis.
It's a 50/50 fight for me but my gut tells me to pick Herman...

@wolf i think he thought you were talking about herman.

EDIT: @wolf whats ug?

the UG is the underground. great info for amatuer fights and some pro. not always updated. helps alot with smaller events. my point was herman beat a guy who was out for 4 and 1/2 years in second round. not too special in  my mind. al i know about struve is he is filling out and getting smarter.

@wolf one could argue that getting smarter is at odds with being repeatedly rendered unconscious due to head trauma.  but he's still got my pick.

After seeing Peewee's facial and body hair I'm surprised people are still picking Struve, to be honest.

your the one with the first round tko. @gregory. i think struve will find a way to get herman down and get a triangle choke on him. this time epic beard man  for the loss. :- } following in the footsteps of one johny hendricks does not guarantee victory. struve looked really big to me at weigh ins. remember when he first fought i think he was 222? now 252- 256.

the ufc should have done a prediction video but instead of using UFC 3 they should have video taped a homeless guy fighting a giraffe in a cage........yep...that's how my mind works!

I expect Struve to get KTFO.  Struve can't handle guys with big power.  His huge reach advantage hid that fact against Pat Barry, but he won't have that luxury with Herman.
