Prediction: correct Johnson   correct KO/TKO   correct Round 1  

Taking the upset.  Barry is a small Heavyweight and I can see Lavar getting in tight and throwing bombs to score the early knockout.  Hoping for Barry though.

Prediction: wrong Barry   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

I just remembered Barry said he's not cutting his hair until he submits someone in the UFC. This is probably the best chance he will have in a long time because Johnson's ground game is pretty bad.

Lavar Johnson is a bad ass dude, but I like Barry so much I'm picking him in hopefulness. Maybe we will see him get his submission victory?

I'm picking Lavar 'cause of MMA-athematics, sorry guys.

Barry threw everything and then some at Beltran and beat him via decision.
Lavar knocked out a dude with an iron chin in 4 minutes.

Prediction: correct Johnson   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  


Johnson's reach and power are going to overcome the often exciting, but in my opinion overrated, Pat Barry.  Both fighters have the power to end the fight quick so I don't expect to see this fighting making it out of the second round.  I think Barry should talk to a nutritionist about dropping to light heavy.  Although he's fought some good fights he's too short for his division.

Pat Barry is almost always gonna be the smaller fighter in his fights, but the issue with him is usually submissions, something he probably won't have to worry about as much with Johnson, who's also about throwing leather. Someone gets knocked out early here and sadly I think it's Pat.

Prediction: wrong Barry   wrong Decision  

am I the only one who sees this fight going to a decision ?!

I understand they are 2 heavyweights that love to stand and bang .. but I just don't see this fight ending soon .. If it does end it's most likely round 3 after Pat barry leg kicks his legs into retirement lol but I see this fight going to a decision with  Lavar possibly winning round 1 but he will slow down a lot more in round 2 and Pat barry will edge him in that  round and take round 3 to take the 29-28 Unanimous decision .. possibly split decision for this fight though as it will be close .. but I honestly don't see either one getting a KO/TKO

@jesuseatsnuts

Yes I think you are. Lavar Johnson has never been to a decision and his cardio won't let him. Style wise, this fight isn't going passed the 2nd round.

I am picking Lavar for a few reasons. Power, Reach, and I'm just a fan. I like Barry alot though and if he wins, I wont be angry. Somewhat hoping Barry gets a sub so he can shave his hair off lool.

No. No it doesn't.

If this fight makes it past half of the 2nd, it's gonna turn real boring real fast.

Prediction: wrong Barry   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

Barry lands first and often, beating up on Johnson. Johnson then drops Barry, insanity ensues, and in a final scramble Barry gets a sloppy but effective rear naked choke. The audience goes wild and the UFC decides to call it a night early and cancel the rest of the fights. That's my prediction, but you know, it could go differently.
