    This is an interesting one. Le was on his way to winning a clear decision before he got caught by the Comeback Kid. He will probably have learned from his mistake, and if he begins to gas will be smart enough to coast if he's up.

    However, he is pushing 40, and we don't know how much his confidence was shaken by his unbeaten streak being snapped in such brutal fashion. Smith's, conversely, will be very high (maybe too high?).

    Unless smith takes this fight to the ground, i expect cung le to beat his ass again but this time he won't get caught and get KO.:lol:

    I'm leaning towards Le by UD. I think he might be more measured in his attack this time and not take so many chances as in the first fight. Conversely - he could come out with a vengeance and look to take Smith's head off in the first round.

    i honestly feel like its gonna be a deja vu match with Le dominating the first 2 then getting stopped in the 3rd.

    Cung Le UD. He will be wary of Smith's explosiveness so will pick him apart in a cool and systematic fashion.

    I don't think he's going to do that. He got tired from trying to do that in the first fight. I think this time he's going to pace himself and just coast to a victory

    Le by decision

    Smith hardly showed explosiveness....Cung le just got terribly tired.

    I think Smith is going to be much more aggressive this fight and really take the fight to the shaken Le.

    Maybe. I think Cung Le might be the one being more agressive this time out. It is going to be interesting.

    Great body attack by Le. Smith has always had a vulnerable mid-section and Le did a great job taking advantage of it. I was 100% wrong.

    Le has a very fan friendly style. Glad he won.

    Le >>> Silva.

    Le can't beat Silva, even the prancing jackass version.

    Les got a good shot as anyone. Hes got deceiving power in his kicks. Hes not as elusive as Silva but I feel his kicks are more varied.

    Silva is confident enough to stand and trade with Le while Le is too smart to get on the ground with Silva.

    Definitely a fight worth making.
