    Lol, are you kidding me? Did you watch the Vera fight? Jones broke 3 bones in Vera's right cheek and broke his orbital socket.

          I like all of them except the Munoz fight. As unimpressive a fighter Okami is, he still seems to always find a way to pull out a W.

          It'll be sad to see Gomi go (assuming he gets cut after dropping his first two) after how excited I was when I heard he was coming to the UFC. They have a bad habit of signing great fighters just past their prime.

            I like munoz a lot and i think he picks up a rd 3 tko, he has great base, and has look great since his brutal ko by hamill. I can see him beating okami pretty easy, but i dont think Okamai can finish him.

              Okami was EXTREMELY impressive in his last fight. Completely picked apart Linhares with some crisp boxing, Okami's stand-up seems to have improved a ton.

              It would be interesting to see if Okami does everything in his power to keep the fight standing.

                Munoz has better standup than Linhares, but the key is if he can stop Munoz's takedowns.

                  Well there you go, I never got around to watching that one. But based on what I've seen in the past, I see him as a solid fighter that always seems to get a win. Nothing he does really jumps out at me. I guess I'll have to watch that fight to see what you're talking about.

                    It was a good fight, but i still see Munoz by rd 3 tko.

                      Judging by their last fights I would say what Okami displayed against Linhares, stand-up wise, was miles ahead of anything Munoz has ever showed. Munoz looked just as bad on his feet against Grove, as Linhares did against Okami. Saying that, Munoz could come in to this fight a lot better than he did against Grove.

                      I think that Okami has the wrestling ability and experience to keep the fight standing if he wanted to.

                        He might, but also look at the camp Munoz trains at. Blackhouse is a great camp and he has great people to work standup with.
                        I think this has potential to be a good fight, but it could very well turn into a grappling match, with whoever gets the takedowns wins a ud.

                          Fight of the year candidate:

                          John Howard vs. Jake Ellenberger

                          has some crazy potential.

                              This is going to be a better fight than people think Matyushenko is tougher than people know

                                He defintely is, but i still think he is going to lose. I wouldnt be shocked if Matyushenko wins.
