So looking forward to this! Should be an easy win for Barnett. If he grapples with Roy and grinds him out yeah, but if he stands and trades with him, the war master is getting knocked out.

"Everybody has a plan until they get hit in the face" lol I love barnett as a fighter, but I worry about his jaw, Browne really did a number on him, hope he recovered after all this time.

Barnett gets KOed much easier than Nelson and Nelson has never been submitted. "Big Country" should win this easily. Only way Barnett wins is if he drags this to decision and it will not get that far.

Only way Barnett wins is if he drags this to decision and it will not get that far. Of Nelson's last 5 fights he has lost 4. 3 have been by decision. Even with Barnett being passed his prime and his stamina being questionable I don't see him losing this. Nelson could always catch him with that lethal looking KO punch, but that's always going to be a threat when talking about Big Country. I just don't see it happening tonight.

Barnett should win but I wouldn't count out Roy because he just seems to disappear come back strong and get close to a title shot but never reaches it.

There is a 90% chance this will be straight stand up unless Barnett wants to ware down Roy but considering their in Japan and main event this will be a slugfest.
