No way, Mousasi was saying something about being a natural Heavyweight, I think, so the likely question is between HW or LHW.
Also nice to see that, if all goes as planned, we'll finally get Fedor-Barnett for the WHAMO...I mean WAMMA Title. If it's still even around.

It's nice to see non UFC organizations putting up great cards with a lot of intriguing fights. This is definitely going to be one sweet Summer for MMA fans.

I wonder how long it will take before diehard fight fans declare the winner (Mousasi) the answer to Anderson Silva.
Definitely looking forward to this fight.

Great match up.
When Vitor actually decides to throw,he wins most of his fights,but I see him being very cautious against Moussasi.
I have to give it to Mousasi,but imo,Vitor has a chance against anyone he steps in the ring or cage with.
Even though Fedor/Barnett will be the big appeal of this card, this could very well be the fight of the night.

sweet, i think gegard pulls off the sub, probably as good a middleweight fight you can make outside of the ufc (would love to see santiago fight one of these guys too)

I'm about positive this will be a catchweight and not a MW fight.
Mousasi didn't just pack on 30 pounds to turn around and cut it all off.
I don't see him getting under 195, especially since he still wants to gain more weight to compete with the HW's.
