I’ve seen this poster over used before… consider it stock content.
it will be interesting to see how Santiago does. York vs Herman could be entertaining but this isn’t going to win MMA any newbie followers.
Always enjoy the Monster – I have feeling he’s losing this.

The chin is always the issue. His performances against high caliber level of opposition has shown that he can compensate for a crap chin with his other skillsets. But Mamed’s style of striking makes me thing that Santiago will accidently just walk into a big shot as opposed to being setup in a technical fashion.
I agree that the monster is losing this. His fight against Whitehead showed everyone that he can wrestle anymore. To think such a specimen and such highly credentialed wrestler showed up in that fashion is depressing. Even he gets the takedown, the sub is coming and it won’t need to be slick or fancy.

I don’t know man, he got the skills to get the W but Santiago is not Acacio. I doubt to see him make that mistake and getting caugh. I’m curious to see how he’ll(Mamed)do against a real top 10. Plus Santiago showed great jits and stand up with tremendous power during the Grand Prix. I wonder if Kaz is still alive, lol. It’s gonna be a war for sure.
I hope Randelman worked grappling on his back b/c this fight gonna be on the ground. If he can’t put Nedkov on his back with his questionable fading wrestling, well he’s in for getting GnP all night. I don’t see a sub in this one.

agree in full. I would like see Santiago win although he does have to keep himself protected to do it.
