And that's why Sass will submit him

About time Sass gets beat, he is not a good fighter. His best win is Michael Johnson, who has no submission defence, and he was almost knocked out in that fight. And please dont bring up Wolkmann - a guy, who gets nearly submitted by Efrain Freaking Escudero, can't be considered serious, besides, he has no wins worth mentioning.
Wiman by TKO.

I'm rooting for fellow Oklahoman Matt Wiman but I don't think he is able to avoid the submission. If Sass can catch a guy like Volkman then I think he can do the same to Wiman. But I hope I'm wrong.

Sass has very suspect stand-up. Wiman needs to keep it on the feet at all costs, Sass has very poor technique especially with kicks.

I have picked against him in the past. Dude is just super slick on the ground. |

His only notable submission win is against Wolkmann, who doesn't have the best sub defense out there. I'm not saying Sass has a bad ground game, but he sure is not the fighter you are making him out to be. Look what happened to Sotiropoulus, he in fact has a better BJJ game IMO, and decent stand-up, but it didn't help him when he faced some more decent competition.

I'm the same I always bet against him, evidently wrong for doing it.
Wiman is definitely the better all round mixed martial artist but you can't deny the sub game of Sass and I think that's where he wins again.

I think Wiman is going to blitz him and put him away quickly finishing it with hard ground strikes.

I agree, I think Matt is the better overall fighter. But Sass is a submission specialist and he appears to be very good at it. If he pulls out another sub here, I think people will have to take notice. But hopefully Wiman puts him to sleep. |
