Re: UFC 127

^ That's a quality scrap.

I have no idea who will win that. Florian probably has a strking edge, Dunham probably has the jiu jitsu edge. The wrestling is probably about even.

great fight.

Man, that's going to be a great fight. I think Dunham will outwrestle Florian all day. In fact, if Dunham comes in as a dog I'll be on him. I think Florian's probably going to have trouble here and stands a good chance of picking up another loss.

I was thinking Florian might have a small edge in the wrestling, he has really shown improvment in that area (against everyone but Gray)... Dunham has shown decent takedown defense, but so has Kenny. They both have shown takedown skills. I think that is a really close fight. Good chance it stays standing IMO.

I think I'm just still impressed by how Dunham outwrestled Griffin. No one's really been able to do that to Griffin, not even Sherk. And for that matter, after the first round and a half, Dunham was easily stuffing Sherk's shots.

I think that this fight probably stays on the feet . . . if that's what Dunham wants.

Because I really don't see Florian taking Dunham down, at least not in any meaningful way.

Well Sherk couldn't take Dunham down after Sherk gasses..in a rematch I think Sherk could take him...he had a long long layoff.

I would take Kenny. Dunham was a high school wrestler I think, and Kenny is not easy to take down. Gray got him down, he is probably the best wrestler at LW. I see that being a standup battle with Kenny winning. Even is good at subbing but it has to get to the ground and Kenny is a BB.
