Excited for Masvidal vs. Larkin!

[Cptn1NSAN0]

I think Masvidal is more technical but Larkin has more speed and power. They match up pretty evenly but I'm wondering how much of a size advantage Larkin will end up having on fight night. I absolutely can't wait for this fight, I'm looking forward to it almost as much as the main event. Who comes out on top and is anybody else pumped up for this scrap?

Jorge Masvidal (29-10)



vs.

Lorenz Larkin (16-5, 1NC)

Should be fun. I got Masvidal by KO/TKO but it's a pick em fight.

 

[beephin]

Should be a good one. Masvidal is a dangerous dude, but just gets me frustrated sometimes when he's in the cage.

Rooting for Larkin, but Masvidal is the real deal.

Heart Larkin, mind Masvidal.

I didn't even know this was happening. Which card (save me from googling it)? I have no idea who will win but god damn it'll be good.

It's on the Almeida-Garbrandt FN in a few days.

Masvidal's tendency to get dropped worries me against Larkin, but Masvidal is a crafty dude and I think he might be able to eke this one out.

Yeah and Larkin is a big puncher but he seems so inconsistent.

Should be an exciting standup battle but Jorge is a tricky vet and has the wrestling edge...he'd be wise to take it to the ground.

Seems like he's too patient in there at times.

 

[ArtemV]

I think Masvidal will sub him, he is so much fun to watch grappling, he is very technical and crafty.

 

[Dead Kennedy]

I always support fighters from the Inland Empire and Larkin is just like anyone from the I.E., he likes to represent, especially Riverside. Anyone who knows anything about Southern California, knows the Inland Empire is looked down upon (Jealousy mostly ) so to see him represent like that, I just gotta support the guy. That being said I think Masvidal takes a close decision

 

[Arm Barbarian]

That is a

Fight.

Should be some violent exchanges in that one.

 

[Bend NvR Break]

Very underrated fight. Definitely FOTN candidate.

 

[BlackPanther]

I'm pumped for this one. JBG will be pleased.

 

[Goatenstein]

I smell a disappointing borefest. I sincerely want to be wrong.

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

I gotta go with Larkin in this fight, probably by decision. Will be close though

 

[Red Triangle]

I think Larkin should take this decision. It will be competitive, but I think Larkin will be a bit more accurate.

 

[Yokimoto]

I have Larkin. Just have a feeling that it'll get wrapped up early.

 

[Bboy]

I got Larkin by (T)KO.

Jealously lol...it's over all the meth labs that we don't have in LA or OC.

IE is like the 209 of So Cal (not sure if they have meth labs in the 209).

 

[El Chimpo]

i got masvidal... got sneaky wrestling

 

[mastodon06]

Should be a good fight, but I tend to stay away from making predictions about the outcome of a Masvidal fight. Talented guy with a well rounded skill set and tons of experience, but he has a tendency to give away rounds by being too defensive minded.
