Fight Analysis: This is a tough matchup with Schaub’s excellent standup and conditioning matched up with Gonzaga’s standup power, powerful kicks, and BJJ. This fight will stay standing, IMO, and surprising enough I predict that Gonzaga will lay a kick upon Schaub that will rock him completely. Schaub already has a suspect chin after the Nelson fight, so I see Gonzaga exploiting this and sending Schaub to the canvas.

Prediction: Gonzaga by TKO

Gonzaga talks about NEEDING to win his next fight. This is a really good luck at Gabriel and what his thoughts are about the Werdum fight.
