Whoo, tough draw for Camozzi! He's gonna need some good ol' American wrestling, or another hail mary skull slicing knee to pull this off.
Solid fight. Tough draw for Camozzi. I think Cane takes it KOTN style.
Did I miss something or did Cane do something recently that got everyone back on his hype-train? This is Banha Cane, right?
I think it has more to do with Camozzi than Luiz

I didn't mean to imply Camozzi was better. If anything, I wouldn't be confident in either one of these guys.
If luiz loses cut him
he had a few OK fights, but i could think of some much more interesting fighters that could take his place on these cards.
Is Camozzi a southpaw?
If so, that's like 30 straight fights in a row that Cane fights a south paw.
