He seems to be the type of fighter that always trys to end it, thus losing a bit of steam after a few rounds. My guess would be if there is not a ko very early, Babalu gases out by round 4.

But yea I hope Gegard brings his lunchpale because if he doesnt put Babalu away in the first round, then he is gonna be in for a long night.

The thing I cant get out of my head is the kick to Jacare" face in the Dream tournament. I just see Mousasi walking away from this fight like that. well the experience will be with Babalu for sure, I wont count either out though.

Even more so now that it is in a cage. I see another potential star getting schooled in the mma game in this fight. I hope im wrong. Mousasi has a world of potential. And no matter what happens he will learn from this fight and keep getting better. Still got Babalu by decision. Even more so now that it is in a cage.

If the fighters dont like the questions and promoters are getting questioned to harshly the reporters will get booted. I think its more of a fine lin that fans like me dont really get to see to often. I would guarentee you that a lot of the reporters out there know some cool things they cant share.
