Who have you got in this fight?

It is pretty underrated imo, could be the next future flyweight title challenger.

I got Nguyen, he is much better than Smolka when standing, and I think his takedown defense is good enough to keep it standing.
 
Smolka has a really good ground game, I could see Smolka possibly submitting him.
 
People actually care about the Flyweight division? LOL

Just joking, I think Scoggins should be the next challenger to DJ. I got Smolka to smoke Ben here.
 
havent seen much from ben except his fight on the hunt vs miocic card.

for some reason i thought he was australian lol.

i got ben in this fight. probs second round finish.

Oh yeah, I completely forgot about Scoggins. But how do you think Smolka smokes Ben? Interesting prediction. I like Smolka, but he isn't the most physically imposing, explosive or really fast, when getting compared to Ben anyway. But he is as tricky as hell when grappling.
 
Super excited for this fight. I'm taking Nguyen but Smolka is a talented guy with some legitimate skills, so i'm by no means counting him out. May the best man win.

Think he was born in the US, but lives in Australia now.

I think he may live, or atleast has lived in Brisbane or Gold Coast for a time.
 
This will be an exciting fight to see who can be 4th in line to face MM. MM will get past Reis. Then he'll get past the TUF winner... unless some superstar with a ton of reach, quickness, takedown defense and ridiculous KO power is found. After that he'll probably fight and lose to Cruz and then he will come back down and defend his belt against the winner of this fight who will have won another. Both guys are really promising, I favor Nguyen because I think he can keep it on the feet and stop Smolka with his stellar stand up.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm fairly sure they said he was fighting out of Australia for that fight on the hunt vs Miocic card.

Yep pretty sure it was something like that. Another fighter I'm gonna add to the Australian list to always support!
 
Like this fight very much, I'm sure we'll see fire works. Those two fighter are not known for fighting safe.
 
I didn't even know this fight
was happening. I enjoy both of
their fighting styles. I think
technically, Nguyen might be
more sound, but smolka goes
for it & Nguyen has been caught
before. I love prospect fights.
Though I understand that these
types of match ups are more
prevalent in brackets that lack
depth; I feel like they should
make more of these match ups
across all the weight classes.

I got smolka by comeback.
I like em both though & hope
for a good fight for both guys

I'd like to see Smolka win by Superkick.
 
Ben Nguyen by any damn way he wants.
 
I also got Nguyen. That guy is damn good.
Seriously think he will work himself up to a title match.

Not often I get to see sweet chin music in MMA.
Very nice :)
 
I got ben nguyen. louis lost to chris cariaso. LOL
 
FOTN probably, once the dust has settled. Smolka wins a close, probably split, decision.
