Akiyama vs. Jerome LeBanner will either be a bloody KTFO or a vicious bone-snapping sub. Either way - I'm happy.

Unless it's a work.

ahh gotcha. Gary is fun to watch. why do you wish he was still retired? win lose or draw, big daddy is usually going for the KO with every blow.

Akiyama by sub, Goodridge by KO and Sudo by sub. My picks on those. Also how good is the korean judoka Sapp is facing?

i dont know anything about the Judoka Sapp is facing. JLB is actually the one that has alot on his plate. he is suppose to do this fight, then fight Gary Smiler April 30, and then Abidi 4 weeks later.

Akiyama has a weight disadvantage, but a smaller guy can always get a sub. if LeBanner hits him clean hes going yo knock Akiyama the fuck out.

Genki and Dekkers should be good, hopefully it won't end after a few seconds, minutes on the ground, would be good to them stand up for a while, but there's no reason for Sudo to do that really, as he will get beaten up.

wow. i DEFINETLY dont see that happening. hes gonna grab an arm before he tries to GNP a way bigger man.

edit: oh crap, they made this match K-1 rule? what in the fuck is the point of damaging Akiyamas skull this early in his career?

Sudo vs Dekkers is definetly going to make some waves. Sudo can hang in the MAX style of fighting. Dekkers is lightyears ahead though experiance wise. this one should be a fucking barnburner. whats up with these K-1 matches though? i thought HERO's was going to be a MMA promotion?
