Who thinks Reis can win?

Because I don't.

He is too stiff and I remember he looked pretty good vs Ortiz, however Ortiz mostly stood in front of him and traded. Johnson isn't going to do that. Reis is most likely a better grappler and DJ probably can't submit him. But I think the chances of Reis getting him down, and holding him there for any amount of time is slim.

I got DJ via tko.

I think this fight (as most others) is like a showcase fight for Johnson. Maybe he will move to BW afterwards?
 
Agreed

Should be some interesting scrambles, but I see DJ keeping it on the feet pretty well and boxing Wilson's ears
 
I don't think even Reis would put money on himself.

Of course, this is MMA, anything can happen, yadda yadda... but logic says that Mighty Mouse wins by way of anything he wants.
 
I think the only way Reis could win that is via some early sub
IMO he has to put everything in the first minutes, using his strength and try to finish MM

Other that that, I don't see how the hell he would win
 
Dominick Cruz has said Reis will win a couple times.
 
Reis is slick at getting takedowns then transitioning to the choke.

If anything DJ needs to worry about the first/second round submission.
