Agreed.  Chael's best weapon his Stann's worst asset.  This will be a very long night for Stann.

Agreed. Sonnen should take it to decision. We'll see though. I've always liked Stann and this will be a huge test for him.

Like the fight a little good vs evil match-up, Sonnen by dec would be my first thought

Sonnen is going to look like a fool trying to talk all the crap he normally does.  Stann is a good fighter and a good person.  Chael will lose fans in this on this if he does his WWE routine.

I was thinking the exact same thing Kalibo. I wonder if he will trash talk...

He'll gain fans if he doesn't and is just confident in his interviews, but not insulting.  We'll see soon.. I'm sure he'll be talking very soon since it was announced. I'll be paying attention to the twitter feed on Tapology.

Of course the most obvious outcome of this fight is Chael by decision. But man would it be craziness if this happened:

I would jump up off the couch and scream like an idiot... followed by being hit by my wife for acting like a fool...  but it would be worth it!

I hope Jones is helping Stann out... that would be huge for Stann.

I would love to see Stann win this. I have a feeling Chael wins a decision though.

Ring rust won't be a factor for Chael Sonnen. Brian Stann is awful against top notch wrestlers. I said I would never go against Greg Jackson fighters, but in this case... Chael Sonnen by decision.

I'm really hoping Stann wins this. I think Chael takes it though. Whoever wins gets Silva or Okami.

Chael is going to win. But I would rather see Stann Vs. Munoz.

miller vs bisping is also prolly in the title mix, depending on how they do on TUF.

Bisping or Miller should come nowhere near a title shot anytime in the next forever. Silva, Stann, Munoz. Okami, Belfort, Leben would beat Bisping or Miller. There is even some I'm probably leaving out.
