^^ tough to bet... Browne is a wild card at this point. He has been dominant, but hasn't fought anyone at all. Stepping up to a top 20 guy is a BIG change from James McSweeney (who doesn't even belong in the show). It might be worth a bet just because you have known quantity in Kongo against an unknown quantity in Browne. Kongo has been wanting to grapple lately too...

Here is a video of Browne when he is actually in a fight:

Keep in mind Browne is 6'7, 265...his opponent was 6'3 and 225ish.

I am pretty sure Kongo's only chance of losing is in the first round. If Kongo puts any pressure on Browne in round 1, Browne is going to come out looking like a retard in round 2 and 3. He looked horrible in that video I just posted.

Browne looks like crap. He has only beaten crap guys and the guy in that video is a 205 pounder. I think Kongo makes Travis eat his Browne.

^ Here is my problem, Kongo hasn't really beaten anyone very good either. His biggest win is Cro Cop...

That said, the only striker to beat Kongo is Yvel, way back in the day. All of his losses have come to superior grapplers.

I don't really think Browne is a superior grappler though. I honestly think Browne could have been a competitor of TUF 10. He fit the criteria: big,sloppy, and no gas tank. If Kongo grapples in the first round and is able to get Browne down and hold him there, rounds 2 and 3 should be a walk in the park for Kongo.

Yeah, that was my counterpoint to the first statement, that Kongo hasn't beaten anyone. As in "He sucks, but only gets beaten by wrestlers, Browne is not a wrestler, so Kongo should win."

Worded poorly by me.

Yeah, although the ways things have been going, I will bet on Kongo and Browne will win with a gogoplata from mount.

I like Travis chances. I saw some of his other vids, he has a decent ground game. Kongo's ground game is garbage and everyone always overrates kongo. He was the favorite in his fight with mir.

Where was he the favorite against Mir?
