With Hunt's ongoing visa issue, I think there's a significant chance this fight doesn't happen. I understand Big Country is waiting for the call to step in. Even if Hunt makes it, you have to think his focus is not where it should be coming up on to a title fight. I bet JDS yesterday. I liked him before, I like him even more now with Hunt's problems
Cain/Silva - I don't expect a repeat of last fight. Should be a little more competitive. Don't think it's likely Bigfoot will catch Cain, like he did to Reem. He won't sub him. Cain picks away and gets a few takedowns. wins by GnP (again) in the 3rd.
Hunt/JDS - JDS showed me enough of his chin vs Cain to know he can take some big shots. I think Hunt's ground game is better than most give him credit - not that he'll ever sub Jr, but I think he can get out of some precarious positions. I think Jr gets a late TKO or decsion
Grant/Maynard - The beauty about TJ is he comes forward and goes for the kill. He has a diverse arsenal. He's a threat everywhere. Probably a close decision - I like Grant to pull it off with his versatility
Texeira/Te Huna - I kinda liked Te Huna to win this for awhile. Not sure if I buckled to the consensus, or came to my senses, as Glover is definitely more well rounded, and better is most areas. However, what has Te Huna done wrong? And he's just learning and evolving. He has come back from the dead on a couple fights. He has heart. And I cant get out of my head, when Tex was pummeling Maldonado, Mald seems to barely tag Tex and wobble him. I bet Tex, but I think I picked Te Huna by TKO on tapology. So I'm picking both to win
Cerrone/Noons - Cerrone can win this anywhere, I think, but he has the best chance on the ground. If he can secure some TDs he likely pulls off a sub. Cerrone sub, round 3
Pyle/Story - Pyle has done some amazing things lately. This guy has a vast toolbelt, and I think he gives up only power and a little size to Story. I think he will measure up Story, take a few shots, find his range and get a TKO in round 2
Truj.../Nurma... - Nurma is also doing some amazing things, and until he shows me otherwise, or gets a top 10, I think he keeps rolling
Bermudez/Holloway - I have to think Bermudez pulls off a sub - he can throw haymakers and catch Max, but Max has some crisp stand up, and could win on the feet for sure
Bowles/Roop - lots of question marks. Roop not great but shows promise at times. Bowles is better, for sure, but there are other factors that could effect his performance. Bowles by sub in the 2nd
