Not at -400.
Leites should win, but he's not a great fighter imo, just better than Trevor Smith. Also, this event is in Abu Dhabi, so there could be a couple fighters who have jet-lag and cardio issues; hell, all of them could end up having cardio and let-lag issues cuz of the long flight and the warm weather. The venue for this event is an open arena, which means the event is basically outside.
As of right now, the line I like the most is Camozzi -135. I'm not sure if I'll bet this card though, cuz there's no live-betting available for any of the fights, and because of the travel issue I mentioned above. |

Nogueira cant KO nelson, he cant take him down so he will have to throw down with him and Nogeira es very easy to hit and has a weak chin. Nelson by KO |

nog still has a pretty good chin. if you notice when cain KOed him he seemed to recover afterwards very fast. which is the problem with this fight. both of these guys are too good at taking punishment. going to be sad to watch them both pile up more brain damage. |

But Nelsons haymaker is many times stronger than anything Cain can throw and Nog has probably the worst striking defence in the division, eventually he is going to land it. |

^ Big Nog's training camp from 3 days ago.
----------
Facts
• Big Nog is returning from an elbow injury; ring rust 307 days
• Big Nog is 37 years old and has been through a ton of wars in his career. He is 2-3 in his last 5 fights, and he was finished in those 3 losses (Werdum submission, Mir submission, Velasquez TKO)
• Nelson is 37 years old, but he has the best chin in all of MMA and has only been finished in 1 fight (October 2008, vs. Andrei Arlovski)
• Big Nog has never lost 2 fights in a row. (he lost his last fight)
• Big Nog height: 6'3. reach: 77 inches
• Nelson's height: 6'0. reach: 73
• Big Nog is better than Nelson in every aspect of MMA, but he's slowed down over the years and is getting finished in his losses.
• Big Nog has only fought 8 times since 2008, and is 4-4 during that time. All 4 losses were via finish (TKO loss to Mir, TKO loss to Velasquez, Submission loss to Mir, Submission loss to Werdum)
• Big Nog has the better cardio.
• Nelson has only finished 1 guy outside of Round 1 in the past 6+ years, which was Mirko CroCop in October 2011. Nelson is known as the guy who either finishes an opponent in Round 1, or he doesn't win the fight. Since he throws power in every shot, his chances of knocking anyone out past Round 1 goes down considerably.
• Nelson: Out of 28 fights, he has fought 3 times outside of the USA, and only 1 of those times has been while he's been in the UFC, which was he fought and loss to Stipe Miocic in Canada (June 2013).
• Big Nog: Most of his 44 fights were in Japan, while the rest were in the USA, Brazil, and a couple other countries.
• Nelson is on a 2-fight losing streak, which were against more technical strikers with good movement (Cormier and Miocic). He's good at beating guys who aren't quick on their feet, who are easy to back up against the cage, and who aren't able to take him down (Kongo, Mitrione, Herman, Struve, etc.)
• Big Nog has 34 wins: 3 by KO/TKO, 21 by Submission, 10 by Decision. His last 2 losses were via Submission, where he ended up getting his arm broken in one fight and needed surgery both times that kept him out of action for 11 months after each loss.
• Nelson has 19 wins: 12 by KO/TKO, 5 by Submission, 2 by Decision. His last 2 losses were via 3-Round Decision's to more technical strikers with better speed and movement in Cormier and Miocic.

most of those stats are absolutely meaningless and Big Nog definitelly isnt better in every aspect of the game than Nelson, Big Nog is a terrible natural striker, he has no power, he is slow, stiff and has no head movement so he is easy as fuck to hit, he is also a very shitty wrestler probably worse than Nelson too.
His only real advantage here is the cardio, the only way Nog can win this is if he manages to outbox Nelson from the outside tiring him out and not eating the haymaker which wont be an easy task considering he doesnt have good takedowns or kicks to threaten Nelson. |

I think Nelsons biggest weakness is his form, and Noguiera wont really be able to take advantage of it in his current form. |
