This is a fight that I have wanted to see for a while. It's going to be a war.

It's going to be great, no doubt. But this means Michael McDonald better f*cking be matchup with Bowles.

Honestly, I'd rather see McDonald go up against Francisco Rivera. Rivera just got busted for a "over the counter stimulant" but his suspension is already up, and he should be able to fight. I just really like the matchup. He probably isn't ranked high enough in a lot of people's eyes to deserve a fight with McDonald, but I think he has the skills.

I don't think you guys understand how potentially great this fight is going to be. If you aren't prematurely ejaculating at the thought of this match, you need to go back and watch both of these guys' fights and realize how perfectly they match up.

I was just looking at the fight card, and I remembered that this was happening. I was going to make another thread, but then I remember that I already made this one.

Now, watch this shit not live up to my expectations.

Better yet, I bet Wineland's jugular ruptures and this fight doesn't even happen.

Ha ha ha, yeah Rob that just happened to me with Miguel Vazquez and Mercito Gesta!

Anyway this is a very good fight, got tear up written all over it, i feel Wineland is slightly more refined in his technique, both guys have power (edge to Pickett), both love to fight, both have good cardio (edge to Wineland), its going to be a good solid war this.

I think Wineland may edge a decision in a thriller, Pickett can KO him though, ill be watching this will massive interest

Great fight this. Two well-rounded guys.

Wineland looked devastating against Jorgenson. Pickett devastated Jabouin.

With Cruz out these two are putting themselves in line for a title shot or a final eliminator with Faber-Menjivar winner.

Anyway, to the fight itself, no idea. Always impressed with Pickett's all-round technical approach, Faber got into a rhythm and lande the better work against Wineland eventually, Pickett will have to wade through some solid artillery to get much going, really don't know where to go with this one.

Obviously rooting for my countryman all the way, not sure how he'll get much going in a rematch with Barao though
