I can’t tell you how excited I am about this fight. It’s been a long-time coming, and the hype that’s been building has gotten me fired up – good job Dana!
I like both fighters. GSP is a fellow Canadian, so that gets him some points, and I like his growth and admire his explosiveness.
But BJ is a character and his talent is extraordinary. So whoever wins, I’m happy.
Here’s my prediction:
BJ will take it in the 3rd round by a ref stoppage due to strikes. GSP will take some licks in the first round on the feet becaues BJ’s hands are so fast, and he’ll take it to the ground from then on.
I don’t think BJ can submit GSP because of his strength and explosiveness, but I do think that BJ will be able to get some good positions on the ground and that’s why he’ll end it with strikes.
That’s my BOLD prediction – what’s yours? Leave a comment.
