The main event has some serious expectations behind it. Both Junior and Shane have never been knocked out and usually finish the fights round 1. Both love to let their hands go and it’s going to be extremely difficult to predict a winner. I like Junior, but Carwin has been a beast and should have beat Brock. Florian against Nunes seems like a fight Dana White set up to give Ken-Flo another title shot. I think he uses his length and strength to bully Nunes. Maia is a BJJ legend, but Munoz has amazing hands and a wrestling background making this an extremely difficult match-up for Maia. Jon Olav was supposed to fight Shane Carwin before he upgraded and Herman took his place. Sounds like a talent discrepancy to me. Last fight is Cowboy Cerrone against the new guy Vagner Rocha. Cerrone is one of the most underrated lightweights to me and Rocha is too inexperienced to me. It doesn’t hurt that15 of his 18 fights he’s won via submission.
