UFC Live: Cruz vs Johnson

Matt Wiman (13-6) vs Mac Danzig (20-8-1)
These two fighters fought at UFC 115 when Wiman won a very controversial submission victory when referee Yves Lavigne thought Danzig passed out while in a choke. Danzig was defending himself so the UFC tried booking a rematch. Injuries delayed this but now we get to see the shit hit the fan. I think this will be a solid fight that should be close. I like Wiman to win by decision.

Anthony Johnson (12-3) vs Charlie Brenneman (14-2)
Brenneman could be in trouble if he stands with “Rumble” who put a bad beatdown on Dan Hardy in March. I think Brenneman knows that and will get the fight to the ground. He has a big advantage on the ground and should cruise to a decision victory. This should continue to move him up the Welterweight Power Rankings.

Pat Barry (18-6-1) vs Stefan Struve (21-5)
I have always liked Stefan Struve but he just never seems to put things together. ZHe is 6’11” and his reach could be a big advantage from staying away from Barry’s power. The ground is where he will finish this fight though. Since 2009 Struve has 3 losses. They came against undefeated Travis Browne, Roy Nelson, and Junior dos Santos. Nothiong to be ashamed of there. He still needs that defining win to make people take notice. Also important to note he is only 23 years old so he has a huge career ahead of him. Struve will submit Barry and look towards a bigger fight in the future.

UFC Bantamweight Championship: Dominick Cruz (18-1) vs Demetrius Johnson (10-1)
I am really looking forward to this fight. Cruz defeated Urijah Faber in his last fight to avenge his only defeat. Johnson is coming off big wins over Kid Yamamoto and Miguel Torres. Cruz is very quick and likes to go to the cards after out striking his opponent. Johnson has the speed to keep up with Cruz but the experience Cruz has will lead to another victory by decision.
