Most anticipated mixed martial arts match in a very long time. Is anyone else as pumped for this as I am?
Whats your prediction?
Hughes will knock out the old man in round 2. Royce may be a legend but this is the new UFC and Hughes is too strong for him.

And lost all respect for Gracie when he used Kimo's "pony tail" to win that fight. Plus his style is pretty boring. No doubt that winning 4 matches in one night and beating guys twice his size is impressive. But the legend will be pounded!

My vote: Royce pulls it out in the 3rd round by submission!

That might be a little tough with Hughes' short/stubby/powerful arms. Then again, submitting Hughes in any fashion is going to be tough!

Anyone who steals a fight from my man deseserves to get his ass kicked.
However, Hughes has youth on his side, and Gracie ain't no Randy Couture either. It's very against Gracie's odds given he's almost 40 and hasn't fought UFC in 11 years. He recent cross-trasing in Thai boxing's not going to help. So my money's unfortunately on Hughes.
