| I just seen the odds on the fight and was surprised to see that Vera is favored. Although it is a slight favorite he is favored. I dont know if Randy will beat Vera but I just find it alittle strange to see randy an underdog to Vera. | |

| I have Vera winning the fight.
I think Randy is way overvalued. | |

| I think it'll be close but Randy will impose his will and give Vera a beating on the ground. | |

| I can understand some people picking against Randy, but I find it very hard to believe Vegas is when his opponent is Brandon Vera.... | |

| 8 time grapplers quest champ with a strong greco and MT backgrounds. Randy in his career has faced few guys with backgrounds like this. Younger, faster, longer. How is Vera not favored to knock the fucking shit out of Randy?
Randy is my favorite fighter ever, but be fucking real dude. be real. Please. I beg yall.
On paper this is a one sided mismatch against Randy.
Also, it's hilarious that Vera is still seen as a bad fighter by people. Stop thinking with your biases and emotions men. | |

| Vera is not a bad fighter. He just hasn't shown that he's a good fighter either unless you want to go back to 06 when he fought Mir that wasn't at his best. | |

| Maybe it's because Randy Couture is not that great and old to boot. Vera does not exactly have to be elite to beat Randy Couture because Couture himself is not elite, atleast not anymore. | |

| On paper Vera should maul Couture... but you know what... that's the story in most of Vera's fights and he still finds a way to disappoint everyone and sometimes lose the fight in the process.
I think Vera will win but would not be surprised at all if Couture dominates. | |

| Randy wins TKO in the 2nd. I hope he continues to go in as the underdog, because that is when he tends to win. I hope he schools Vera and we see a more uptempo version of the old Randy of old...even though he is old...fuck it now I am talking in circles. | |
