Yeah Brown went 4-0 last year with 3 finishes.

Brown wins via submission after what will be a scrappy fight.

Top 5 is a huge huge stretch. The people in the top 5 are above and beyond better than Matt Brown. He could stay in the top 10, but I can't think of a single person that would be considered a top 5 WW that Brown would even almost beat.

I think Brown can totally win this. Both guys have had some rough spots recently in their careers and are crowd pleasing to watch. Brown is the better well rounded fighter and I think will this either by sub or (T)KO.

Great, great fight! Hardy should be the favourite, but you can't count Brown out.

I would have to really think to put down my absolute top 5. But I could list quite a few WW's that I think would beat Brown easily.
GSP
Diaz
Hendricks
Kampmann
Ellenberger
Fitch
Maia
Koscheck
Silva
Stun Gun

I can't possibly imagine Hardy being the betting favorite. I'm pretty sure he won't be.

I kind of worded that incredibly wrong. I ment the favourite to me aha, not in terms of the bookies or anything. Bad tiredness is bad.  |

LOL, I figured you ment the favorite to win the fight. They both had down stretches but Matt's recent win streak should have him higher up then Dan. If he can stand with Wonderboy then he can stand with Hardy.
