    Are you excited about your "Glass Jaws Exist In MMA" avatar that you're going to be sporting for a month?

    I am too. Schaub is a very good athlete, but he hasn't shown me he is a good fighter. Schaub was on his way to losing to a version of Cro Cop that did not even appear to be trying. Schaub's speed may be enough to overcome Nog, and maybe enough to get the kod; but he needed a better showing against Cro Cop for me to back him.

    I can't believe MushableMandible is backing the guy with the lesser chin.

    If Nog can close the distance and clinch without getting tagged then it's all over, no doubt. Schaub was stumped by Mirko, and would clearly be out of his depth against a top tier fighter in his prime. Nelson for example

    Im just not getting my hopes up and think BS's jab and footwork will do the job, but Im rooting for Nog, as is everyone here I reckon

    And can we all call him BS from now on, seems quite apt

    Schaub has a shitty Chin, no doubt, but Nog's is even shittier. I won't be surprised if he's knocked out by the wind off of a missed punch.

    That's fine with me and no signature explanations or profile detail disclaimers. You have to wear it with Pride.
