Hard to pick against Jorgensen because he's one of my favorite fighters, but I think Barao is just too good on the feet and the ground. Expecting big things to come from Barao. Stat breakdown on this fight at: http://www.breakdownfights.com/?p=2920

Jorgensen is a tough dude. I wont be all that shocked if he gets the W. But I think Barao is just so good EVERYWHERE, Jorgensen is fairly well rounded but I think Barao is more so.

Prediction: correct Barão   correct Decision  

I agree Jorgensen is a tough hombre, that's why I don't think Barao will stop him. However I just don't see any way Young Guns can win this one, short of one of his Hercules Punches, that come few and far between.

Barao is my pick, but i can understand why people choose Jorgensen. This is a quite even matchup.

Jorgensen is a great fighter but, I think Barao pulls off a decision. As good as Barao is, I don't see him finishing Jorgensen.

Barao is championship material imo. I guess we will see tonight. 

Barao
Erick Silva
Michael Macdonald

are the 3 biggest young guys to look out for right now. All serious threat in their division.

Prediction: wrong Jorgensen   wrong Decision  

I think Barão takes the 1st by surprising Jorgensen and then slows down enough that Jorgensen takes him down and beats him up for 2 rounds. 29-28 Jorgensen. This fight will most likely lead to a #1 contender's bout for the winner. The only reason this bout isn't a #1 contender is just due to the fact that Cruz/Faber won't be happening for another few months. It would be at least 6 months before Barão/Jorgensen winner could challenge, so I see the UFC having 1 more fight to determine the next contender. 

In all likelihood the winner of Jorgensen/Barão takes on the winner of Torres/McDonald. Probably in June.

Prediction: wrong Jorgensen   wrong Decision  

This fight and the main event are both fights that could very easily go either way.....which makes me incredibly nervous considering both Condit and Scotty are pretty much my favorite fighters!

Being completely objective,I think if Jorgensen wins it will be by decision....I don't see him finishing Barao..I also think if Barao wins it will be by a soul crushing finish.....
