Since it's a pay-per-view in the U.S. it should be shown here live on the "Super Action" channel, right?

Rteacher... i see that you've evaded offering your opinion on who wins.. Shocked

Anyway, my money is on Couture. I think it'll be a late stoppage (probably TKO). Otherwise, a decision to Couture.

I have to go with Lesnar because he scares me. Plus - couture is an old man.

Couture by submission, end of first round.

I think that Lesnar will win, but I wouldn't bet on it (since he's the favorite, and I don't really like him).

Couture will probably try to run from side to side and circle (ala Willie Pastrano for you old boxing fans) to avoid Lesnar's take down move, and if he can get in some effective strikes and keep moving out of Lesnar's striking or take-down range he has a good chance of winning.

I don't think that Randy can avoid him the whole fight, though, and I don't think his submission skills are on the same level as Frank Mir's.

UFC announcer, Mike Goldberg, thinks that Couture will win - largely because of his "far superior" striking skills, but I think he'd better avoid trying to "mix it up" (like Floyd Patterson did against Sonny Liston...)
