Swick vs. Burkman
Who ya got?
I'm taking Swick 2nd round TKO. I think the first round they feel each other out. Burkman might get a takedown but i don't think he'll keep him down to long. And then In the 2nd Swick will hit a flurry and put him down the ref will stop it and I will flip out and be happy for weeks.

I'm actually going with Burkman in this fight. I think he's going to be too strong for Swick. Burkman's chin is solid, his sub defense is decent, and his cardio sort of sucks. He needs to work on the latter part, but I think he has a solid chance.

Burkman has always impressed me and I think he will beat Swick. Swick will not have an answer for his wrestling and Burkman has decent enough hands to give him a fight on the feet. Swick has better standup but Burkman is more complete IMO. Burkman by decision

Damn I didn't know these guys were fighting. I'd definately have to go with Burkman. Wow, not an easy matchup for Swick on his first 170 fight. Burkman's just kind of a bad matchup for Swick, not neccessarily a greater fighter.

I think Swick will outwork Burkman for a Decision. He'll come out strong and finish strong as Burkman gasses.

Do you guys think Burkman can get Swick to the ground as easy as Okami did?
Because that's the only way I see Burkman beating Swick and I don't think Burkman will have such an easy time getting Swick to the ground. I mean Okami took Mike down at will and it was still a close fight until the 3rd round, Swick almost finished Okami who has a rock solid chin and he even mounted a mini comeback at the end of the 3rd.
I mean I just don't think Burkman is that good of a wrestler he will win this fight in the same fashion as Okami.
