20 lbs is nothing against a guy who has skill to compensate. just look at Sylvia-Couture.

I predict Randy to win by desicion,I think Gonzaga is gonna be way over confident coming into this fight and he is gonna be shocked when he realises how strong and athletic Randy is.

[quote comment="133742"]People are making a little too much of gabe’s 20 pounds he has on randy, I bet half of that is fat, hardly a big advantage. Randy has handled much better build guys than gabe, don’t know where all this is coming from.[/quote]
I agree,he trains with guys who are on gabe’s level of bjj and strenght,but Gabe dosen’t have anybody close to train with to the level of randys wrestling,or gameplanning.

[quote comment="133681"]after this week you will be like “Gabe has one submission over randy, one knockout over crocop, but thats all and he still aint Sh*t. Or you’ll be like ” Gabe was the Sh*t all along”….[/quote]

..Yo do you know Randy recently fought Jacare in a submission match only..to a draw.. JACARE..Mundial Champion…ADCC Champion.

My point is not about Gabe..it’s about Randy..He will not get caught in his 15th UFC title defense by a submission..maybe Ko or GnP..He seen the tapes he knows what his up against and the tempo the match will be fought in..can Gonzaga match him and push a fight that Randy is stirring??? Let the best man tomorrow nite win..My pride is wit Gonzaga..( CARIOCAS )..my love for the sport of MMA..I’m rooting for Randy.

[quote comment="133560"][quote comment="133509"][quote comment="133491"]Ok, Gonzaga has one head kick victory over Cro Cop (impressive), and essentially some BJJ clinic over a useless Marrero (expected), and other than that he is still the guy that had to superman punch Kevin Jordan in the last seconds of a fight to even stay in the UFC. Say what you want about hype for Couture, (Rogan has lost his bloody mind on the preview shows what with his making it sound like GSP was so humiliated by Serra that his knuts fell off in the ring and with his equally preposterous claim that Gonzaga is going to dominate all heavyweights no questions asked) but Gonzaga’s hype is way more annoying. They do this every time. How about Marquardt vs. Silva, oooooh, Marquardt, he’s well rounded, he is a favorite says a bunch of idiots. Oh, and now his face is stuck to the mat in the Octagon from a straight right. Good call guys. The bottom line is Randy is not going to get submitted and I don’t believe Gonzaga is even close to the kind of wrestler Randy is. Randy will do what he did to Sylvia. The only difference being that he will have to watch for submissions more, but on the upside he wont have those ridiculously long limbs and length to keep him from dropping bombs from the guard. Couture says he is way better than he was when he lost to Barnett and Rodriguez, and I believe him, I think he proved it against Sylvia. I think he will prove it again.

Couture by TKO/KO in the fourth.

..I agree..now with Ricco/Josh..I think he was trying to play that BJJ game..and that is not him..he has learned from the past..100% Natural[/quote]

WOW this is exactly what I was thinkin. 100% agree Randy is going to tko Gabe late 4rd. Goin to be a war. A war That Randy is so well prepared for. THat belt is staying in Vegas Baby![/quote]

You poor poor b*stards! I love Randy too but come on guys, Randy will be retired next week and I wont say I told ya so but you will know you were WAY wrong about Gonzaga…

Gabe best have brought his cardio game up, cuz their is the potential for a long 5 round war. If it gets to that, and Gabe isn’t prepared, cardio will be Randy’s key to victory.

Barnett was juicing when he beat Randy too. Go RC!!!
