Barnett said regarding his plan for the fight, "Just win, baby! It’s pretty obvious... he’s a striker, he’s gonna keep it on the feet. I won’t say I’m a 'grappler' necessarily, but I’m gonna put him on his back, look for the submission, or try and pick him up and see if he can take all his weight on his head."

Who do you think is going to win?

Dont count Hunt out, he gave Wandi a tough fight even though it was short notice

Yeah, Barnett is pretty badass. Hunt is a tough guy though.

I'd go with domination by Barnett. Hunt is nowhere near where Barnett is on the ground.

Superior striker beats another striker = nothing special.

Josh is gonna take Hunt down, pound a little and choke him out

Hunt by Armbar or Kimura >__>;

or

Barnett by Atomic butt drop or double knee drop <__<;

Based on what he did to aleks who's just as big as hunt, has quicker hands then hunt, better takedown and sub defense then hunt and ended up getting subbed by Barnett i don't see how anyone could think Hunt is going to win.

His only chance is to KO Barnett before the clinch and Barnett has shown he has a good chin.

Barnett by sub or ref stoppage due to strikes on the ground.

Doesn't anyone remember how quickly Hunt got mounted by Cro Cop when he finally got him on the ground

Apparently not quickly enough to beat the clock

True but I can guarantee that Barnett's gameplan isn't going to be to try and stand with Hunt for the whole fight with 1 or 2 takedown attempts like the Cro Cops great plan
