This fight has been confirmed by Rizzo himself. This is his last fight in his UFC contract and he's gonna go out with a bang, and then probably head to Pride.

Suave has learned his lesson from the Sylvia fight: never strike with a striker. As much as I like Rizzo, I still think Suave takes this fight, either by TKO via cuts or decision. I think Suave will able to stay away from Rizzo's bombs and take this fight to the ground, where he'll controll Rizzo by ground and pound.

I wanna see Busta fight Sakuraba.....it would be awesome to see them grappling.....with Saku's luck though, Busta will probably box and knock him out.....

Yeah, but Rizzo has pretty good takedown defense and showed improved grappling his last time out. I really can't call this one right now.

I love to watch Rizzo fight. His match with Andrei Arlovski was unreal but I don't see him beating Ricco unless Ricco goes brain dead and tries to stand with Pedro.

At least they weigh about the same. Besides, busta's punches are clean and crisp, but I wuestion their KO power. Besides, don't forget, Saku IS the BJJ destryer.

Ricco fights better when he's kinda fat. If he comes it at 250 or more he'll win because he's so good at using his weight on the ground, but if comes in looking like he did against Sylvia, I think Pedro has a great shot at putting out the lights.

Busta may be too well rounded for Saku.....who knows and who cares who wins......that fight would be awesome regardless.

Agreed, busta vs. saku is one of my dream matches and I love both of these fighters.

Yeah, but can you imagine PRIDE putting in Sakuraba against someone thats not aiming to knock his head off his shoulders?

I'd rather see Busta fight Dan Henderson, but the Sakuraba fight would be almost as sweet. Back to the original topic, unfortunatly I gotta go with Ricco on this, Pedro is one of my favorites, but I can see Ricco getting a G&P decision.....

With Ricco's GnP skills and Rizzo's history of cuts....it would not go 3 rounds. On ethier end

Rizzo knocks Ricco out, or its a TKO win from ref stopage or a nasty cut

This from the man that picked Ken Shamrock. People need to learn not to base thier picks on who they like, but who they think will win
