    Fabio will win but judges will score it for Glover. He will promptly be cut despite what should have been a 4-0 UFC record.

    I've only seen Teixeria once so I'm not sure how to call this fight, but you're absolutely right about Maldonado getting hosed.

    Glover has heavier hands......but Maldonado has a better chin and the more skilled hands.....Honestly, I wouldn´t be surprised if Glover tries to take him down and work from there until he gets a submission......

    I think Maldonado beat Kingsbury and...I keep forgetting was it Phillipou last time??

    Glover has the stronger ground game though Maldonado isn't abysmal there. Glover is basic but powerful standing, Maldonado one of the best boxers in MMA with a consistent body attack and a solid chin.

    I think Glover will take it on points and no way does Maldonado get cut even if he loses, short notice, always fun, they'll advise him to get in shape and cut to 185.

    Igor Pokrajac. Phillipou is a MW.
