Alex "Bruce Leeroy" Caceres WARwagon!

I'm riding shotgun...too many people overlooking Bruce Leeroy. Wouldn't surprise me if Faber looked past him also.
 
Faber is several levels above Alex, who is indeed fun to watch.

Rocked, dropped, choked.
 
I like Caceres but Faber only loses to Cruz and Barao.
 
A few things have to happen for Caceres to win this fight.

He has to fight with extreme confidence.
He has to start off very strongly and get in Faber's head.
He has to fight tall on the feet and keep Faber at distance.

While he has a good guard, I can't help but feel that Faber's seen and experienced everything a fighter can on the ground so it's unlikely that Bruce Leeroy will catch him in a sub off his back, and he's extremely unlikely to get Faber on HIS back or take his back unless through a knockdown.

For mine, his only real shot is a flash knockdown > back take > RNC or jabbing his way to a decision, using lots of head movement, footwork and SPRAWL.

But that's what makes mma so awesome, anything can happen. If you haven't figured that out by now, you're going to have a bad time.
 
That wasnt an upset. Only to the ignorant casuals

It was the biggest win of Nick Diaz's life! Gomi was the best Light Weight in the world at the time, Diaz had just gotten released from the UFC, and Diaz had no shot to most fight fans. You are the ignorant one, kid!
 
Afro > Cornrows

I really enjoy watching Alex fight and wouldn't mind seeing him win, but Faber is supposed to take this.
 
Big fan of both fighters. Hate this fight cause I don't wanna see either lose.
 
Gonna be hard to pull his head out of dat guillotine with that fro of his.

Hoping he wins though!
 
I like both guys.

If this hits the ground then I think people will be surprised by how competitive it is. I still see Faber catching him with a choke or finishing with elbows though.
 
biggest upset since The Russian Bear/Tank Abbott
