Barnett puzzles me sometimes...

He's obviously very good at submissions, but despite showing good striking and wrestling sometimes he gets tooled at both quite often.

At the start of the Yoshida fight, Yoshida lands strikes flush on Barnett's chin and he just freezes. Had it been someone other than Yoshida, I suspect it would have been quite dangerous for Barnett even with his solid chin.

His wrestling is always been a bit suspect, the guy is a self proclaimed wrestler but he's had trouble having the dominant position in many of his most recent fights. It's a mystery.

Regardless, I'm as big a Barnett fan you'll find on here and I'm pulling for him to win but Rizzo always has a puncher's chance.
