chonan takes it by decision, blackburn has punching power but chonan is better in every other area.

I'm starting to wonder if the UFC is trying to build Chonan up to a rematch with Silva. I just get that impression by his recent matchups.
Once this hits the ground this should be Chonan's game.
isn't chonan fighting at 170?

I dont think so because Chonan is fighting at 170 now.
Chonan will beat Blackburn though by unanimous decision in my opinion. Shouldnt be that tough of a win for him he's just a much better mma fighter period.

Chonnan is 100x the fighter that blackburn is, I thik chonnan takes this one easily, but you never know what coud happen, lackburn does havenice hands, could make for an upset.

It's hard for me to pick a winner in this one, but after seeing most of both of their recent fights, I'm gonna go with "Bad" Brad Blackburn, he has KO power and can end a fight anytime(like when he KO'ed Delson Heleno in the 3rd after being dominated for 2 rounds). Chonan hasn't really impressed me in his UFC fights, therefore my prediction is Brad Blackburn by KO/TKO in round three.
