I just see Hendo keeping this fight where he wants it, wherever that is.

Fedor is allowed to fight someone smaller than him who can't sub hom from bottom? really? yeah, Fedor by sub or dec. i think dec is the higher % pick :)

@wolf im starting to sway since seeing fedor looking lean.  I bet hes intentionally light to help with speed. Fedors grappling an power is more than enough to put hendo down on his back a bit but i dont think its enough to keep him there.  I still have faith in the hbomb tho!!

It pains me to pick against Dan but this is a bad match up for him. I think Fedor takes this. One of the hardest fights ever for me to call.

Minotauro gave Fedor the edge basically everywhere, even punching power. If you haven't seen this, it's a good read.

I'd like to go on record and say I truly believe Matt Lindland would have beaten Fedor had Fedor not grabbed the ropes (repeatedly even after being warned). I see Hendo as having similar wrestling attributes, but he also doesn't have a glass jaw, and he has much better stand up than Lindland. I see Hendo catching Fedor on the feet in the second...Bisping style.

I feel the same way. I want Hendo to win, but I am compelled to pick Fedor.  i think Dan has a great chance to win given Fedor's last 2 performances which may indicate the Last Emperor is ready to abdicate. Also, the weight diff is not that great, nor the size diff, they looked pretty much equal at the weigh ins with Dan looking more muscular.  It;s hard for me to count Dan out as he seems to have found his swagger and confidence again...but you have to give Fedor the nod in this.

Prediction: wrong Emelianenko   wrong Submission   wrong Round 1  

It will only take one right hand from Henderson to end this fight. However I still think Fedor will be the faster fighter despite being past his prime, is plenty dangerous on the feet, and will be very dangerous on the ground. I'm expecting that Fedor will come in with a halfway decent gameplan and look to avoid Dan's right hand and bring this to the ground. Once there he's not going to struggle with size like he did with the massive Brett Rogers and Bigfoot Silva. Henderson has been susceptible to submissions throughout his career, particularly armbars, and that's how I think this will go.
