Karo vs. Burkman
I have not really seen much of Burkman to form an opinion on who I think will win....I have seen a lot of Karo and he has some heart....
Seeing the countdown to UFC 71 and seeing highlights of Burkman, the guy looks like an animal....
With that being said...who do you guys see coming out victorious and how?

It should be an exciting fight but I think Burkman is in over his head in this fight and Karo should take it.

I expect Karo to win, but I think its going to be close.
Karo by decision.

Karo will bring the heat. Beat up Josh, and take the submission in the second.
Word.
Burkman's a tough guy too, but I think Karo is on another level.
I think Burkman would have won TUF 2, if he hadn't been injured in the win against Melvin.
Daddy would have been in trouble with him.

I'm pulling for Karo, but I honestly think it could go either way.

i suspect karo will take this one.
even if he loses, i love watching karo fight. it is never boring with karo in the cage, and i wouldnt be surprised if he and burkman stole the show (gonna be tough considering its chuck and rampage, but if anyone could steal it, it is karo)

Karo by submission or decision. I think anything other than that would be a serious surprise/upset.

Karo by decision. Burkman is good, but his wrestling and strength will be Judo'd away from him and he'll endure round after round of "The Heat." I don't think Karo will be able to finish him.

I see it this way or Burkman getting the choke. It has the potential to be fight of the night.

Josh Burkman is a good guy, good all around fighter, but I think Karo is a bit better than him. Karo should be in top 5, while Burkman should already made top 10. Exciting fight match ups should be Karo Vs. Matt Hughes or Karo Vs. Matt Serra. And Josh Burkman Vs. Josh Koschek or Josh Burkman Vs. Nick Diaz.
