Nog will catch Randy at some point and probably break his arm by kimura or armbar. Nog's staff infection is far enough in the past now for him to fight like he used to. Couture doesn't stand a chance.

I am a big fan of "The Natural" but I don't think he will be able to beat Nogueira. I hope he does but I just dont think its going to happen.

This is going to be a good card. I see Couture getting the best of Nogueria, although I hope I am wrong. I got to be honest, I am not sure about the Jardine/Silva fight. One minute Jardine is up and the next he is down.

I don't see Nog beating Randy. Gonzaga is huge HW with better striking than Nog and has top tier ground game. Randy destroyed Gonzaga basically. Also Nog isn't exactly known for huge KO power while Randy on the other hand dropped Sylvia with 1 punch.
Basically I see Randy's wrestling being too good for Nog to handle. He couldn't sub Barnett either and Randy's wrestling (specially on clinch) is better than Barnett's. So Randy pretty much decides where this fight will be fought and if he wants to keep it standing he can bash Nog on clinch just like he bashed Gonzaga.

Randy by TKO or UD.

Wonder if Randy joining the cast of the upcomming E.A. game is gonna effect this at all. I'd hate to see Dana screw over people but I'd hate to see himback down from his previous claims more.

I'm pretty sure that this was addressed when Randy came back.

I'd be willing to bet that he is the only UFC fighter with an exemption from this, as Fedor would have had he signed with the UFC.

Spotted this on the article:

"Couture (pictured with EA Sports boss Peter Moore above) joins Fedor Emelianenko, announced earlier as a headline athlete. Other named fighters include Gegard Mousasi of the U.S. and Renato Sobral of Brazil."

FAIL!

I am scared for this fight

I love Nog but Randy seems like a bad match up for him.

Someone said before Gonzaga has better stand up then Nog but I disagree. Gonzaga KOed Cro Cop but Nogueira's boxing is solid but depends how he shows up. His boxing hasn't been great in the UFC thus far, even still I think Randy's is obviously better.

If it goes to the ground I defiantly see Nogueira winning, that is Randy's weakest point IMO and obviously Nogueira's strongest.
