i'm going with Belcher. i think he has the advantage on the feet and Herman doesn't have enough wrestling ability to take him down. Belcher Round 2 KO/TKO

Both guys are inconsistent when it comes to putting a streak of wins together. Both have lost to Kendall Grove but have won since then. Im leaning more towards Belcher I think he underestimated Jason Day and is more hungry for a win. I just think Belcher is quicker and sharper if the fight stays standing and has fast submissions whereas Herman is slower and methodical with his submission but I feel Belcher will be able to easily escape then with his athletics.

Yeah idk about this fight. Herman got his first KO and belcher got dominated by jason day.

Standing prolly goes to Belcher and ground to herman. Since the fight starts standing, i think belcher will prolly keep it there being the stronger fighter prolly for a decision or late tko.

i have to say herman, the guy is phenomenal besides one glaring weakness, sub defense (and it's a huge weakness that will keep him from being a serious contender). but with that said belcher isn't a threat to submit you from the bottom so i think herman works his ground and pound and comes out with a submission victory.

This is a tough one to call. I am going with Herman on a gut feeling. Its not much but i think he'll gut out a UD. He might be able to catch Belcher in a sub who knows

both fighters are in the middle of the pack
loser will drop, i don't think this is a do or die fight
but herman can submit
belcher can knock out herman but i doubt it,
i doubt this fight will go all three rounds
i think herman will submit him i doubt he would knock him out

I think they stack up pretty evenly, but I feel at this point Herman is a bit better. Herman UD.
