Prediction: correct Cerrone   wrong Submission   wrong Round 1  

205's loss is 206's gain. 206 now looks much better than it did a few days ago, with the addition of Cerrone-Brown and Evans-Kennedy.

Prediction: correct Cerrone   wrong Submission   correct Round 3  

I love Matt ******* Brown man ... but he's been dropped multiple times by body shots throughout his career and is pretty susceptible to them, something Cerrone's transformed into an art during his latest run. 

Cerrone's combos have developed in a way that he automatically level changes mid-combo and/or tops them off with a kick (many times to the body). Brown's a "tough it out" kind of fighter, not a "I have great defense" kind of fighter. He uses pressure and being manlier than almost every opponent he's up against to win fights. I don't think he "outmans" Cerrone and the issues Cerrone used to have when pressured he seems to have ironed out with better footwork and angling out (as opposed to retreating in a straight line and trying to throw a head kick from point blank range) since RDA brutalized him.

I'm having a hard time deciding whether I think Cerrone drops-n-submits him or drops-n-finishes him, but I'm pretty confident in a finish. I just feel it's a super bad stylistic matchup for Brown.

@Yoss

Agreed, not to mention Cerrone wrestling.  I not be surprised if he takes Brown down off the bat, similarly to like he did with Story. Brown charging in like he does, leaves him open to body kicks, but also take downs.  I could see Cerrone landing an early take down and mauling Brown.

When I saw this fight I though, damn they're feeding Brown to Cerrone in this.

I mean, it's Cowboy's to lose.

Yeah, good fight excitement wise but a little weird to stick Brown with Cowboy when Brown is 1-4 in his last 5.

This is the fight that will get Brown cut, IMO.  Cowboy is on a real roll at 170 and I don't think that it is a mere flash in the pan.  I can easily see him possibly besting Woodley for the belt with the proper strategy.  To me, he and Maia are the two contenders that stand the best chance.

I can see a double body/liver shot KO in this one. I would not be shocked if that is the method of victory on this one, either Cowboy or Brown.
