Breakdown
Matt Hughes vs. Royce Gracie
Royce has been out of the game for 11 years and I don't think he is gonna step back in after being out for so long and score a victory. Royce won't be able to use the gi which gave him a huge advantage. If Hughes doesn't finish him early, he will most definitely win a decision.
Jeremy Horn vs. Chael Sonnen
These two have met twice before. Both bouts were in 04 and both were victories by Horn (a submission and a cut stoppage). Sonnen’s wrestling is what keeps him in fights. Horn’s ground game will neutralize a lot of that and his striking has improved a great deal over the last year and a half. I think it will be Horn who comes out with a head of steam to show he belongs in the UFC. Horn by submission in the second round.
