[Arkridge]

LA Times Lance Pugmire posted the entire proposed card for UFC 227, Swanson vs. Moicano is targeted for the PPV portion of the card.

Great fight. Who wins?

 

[sirmorbach]

Awesome, awesome fight.

I got Moicano. He is GOOD. People are still not paying attention enough.

 

[James Baller]

I wonder who the favorite will be.

I'll go with Renato Moicano in what I think would be a minor upset. I think his striking is pretty advanced, and he'll be able to keep Cub Swansonio at range with his jab and his happy leg kicks.

Moicano W3 Swanson

Good fight- it’s cool to see people Ortega had finished being matched up against eachother now.

Leaning towards cub but moicano is a game fighter.

 

[Kowboy On Sherdog]

Cub... should take this one. He just cant win the fight to get to the belt...

Moicano W3 Swanson

this is how I feel too, good post. Wouldn't shock me if Cub looked great and won this fight too, but, thinking Moicano is on a roll right now and everything seems to be clicking. Really good fight though

 

[beephin]

YES!!! UFC 227 stack it upppp.

Fantastic fight. Moicano is legit though. I've been impressed with him. I'll take him here.

 

[Kaiokenrye24]

Moicano is a master point fighter I think he will get past Cub.

 

[ryanrandy]

Cub via not fighting Edgar

 

[blaseblah]

Please, please stop fucking around and make Cub v. KZ before Cub retires.

 

[SalvadorAllende]

Damn... UFC 227 seems awesome. Wonder how many fights will fall apart tho.

Here? Renato all day. Cub is not that good and Moicano is really really good.

 

[teamfox223]

Moicano is a good I was impressed with his last fight. Cub still looked good in his last fight even know he lost, made improvements to his game where Frankie couldn't take him down anymore. Tough fight to call but going with Cub.

 

[PeterGriffin]

UFC 227 keeps getting better and better... this fight is a nice addition.

 

[YellowBanenoo]

Did people not watch Moicano's last 5 fights? He will piece up Cup and he will make it look easy.

 

[BRASIL WAND]

>2 fight losing skid Cub



Step down for Moicano imo. Dudes a darkhorse @145

 

[Danespina]

The only three opponents Swanson has lost to in the last 7.5 years are Max Holloway, Frankie Edgar, and Brian Ortega.

He only seems to lose to the cream of the crop, and I'm not sure Moicano is that.

 

[bambammccoy]

Really hoping for some favorable odds in this one.

Could be a real money ticket.

 

[Arkridge]

Please, please stop fucking around and make Cub v. KZ before Cub retires.

Can't believe with as long as those two have been relevant in the 145 pound landscape they still haven't fought. Has to happen at some point.

 

[King of Fists]

I learned my lesson betting against Moicano last time, won't make that mistake again. Moicano by dec.

Solid point, he has only lost to champions and title challengers in pretty much his entire career.
