    It's gonna be hard. Both guys have iron chins. Probably a decision win for Gus in this fight.

    Mousasi's defense is impeccable both on the feet (so hard to land clean on Gegard) and on the ground (getting solid GnP in against Gegard is next to impossible). If Gustafsson wins, it WILL be via decision

    Is this fight official, or is Gus just saying if they fought, he'd want a finish?

    I've got my man Gegard by KO ;)


    Nvm, I see now. In Stockholm.

    By the way, it's good to see that Gustafsson appreciates this challenge. He says he's followed Gegard's career for a long time; he also says Gegard Mousasi is "by far the toughest challenge of his career" and I agree whole-heartedly.

    Me too. Gegard is clearly a much better fighter than the current version of Shogun. This is such a dangerous fight for Gus.

    Its confirmed, 5 rounds it will be headlining the FUEL TV event. Great matchup but I can see Mousasi taking it by submission.

    Man I'm a die-heart Gegard fan, but Gus couldn't be a nicer guy. I wouldn't be mad if he beat Gegard. The thing is Gus will most likely win a decision, but he could also end up on the bottom and have a bad night. And fans should appreciate this fight regardless of the outcome. After this fight both these guys are going to improve immensely and the rest of the division better watch out.

    Gus pushes Gegard around & get a UD. I think this is the fight that makes Gegard think about a run at 185.

    rooting for Moussasi. Wouldn't be surprised if both men try and go for takedowns early.

    Gus is going to takedown Mousasi to lock in a decision. He's too close to a title shot not to play it safe. Pity
