This will either be Gonzaga playing gatekeeper, or this will be Oliveira's coming out party.

I think Gonzaga is on a whole different planet than Oliviera when it comes to skills. Broughton was a fight Oliveira could have won, but I think Gonzaga takes this either early KO or submission round 2. I dont see it going to the score cards here. First fight back in the UFC, hes gonna be out to show he belongs. Awesome  'new' addition to the heavyweight division. People are doubting him too much I think.

I'm happy to see Gonzaga back in the UFC. Maybe this time he'll actually use his BJJ. We'll see.

I'm curious as to how many times have we nostalgically rooted for a veteran in his comeback and have been let down.

Still, respect to whom its due.

War Gonzaga!

i think i gonna change my decsion b/c i looked at the record of this guys opponents and quite a few are 1-1 or 2-1. plus some older guys put in there. might swich to gonzaga and i doubt this guy can hit as hard as carwin does and gonzaga rocked shane before he got dropped. everybody loses sometime  in mma so maybe its this guys turn. there both brazilian so now advantage there.

People fall in love with height and an undefeated record. I think BJJ Gonzaga wins this fight easily, striking Gonzaga still wins but not as easy. Your telling me the guy who got lit up and taken down by Geronimo Dos Santos is beating motivated Gabriel Gonzaga? Nope, Gabriel is gonna get mount and pound this one out.

Picking Gonzaga because I have no idea how good this Oliveira is. Hopefully K-1 Gabe doesn't show up.
