Suicidalforlife: Mo gets caught early or else it's a L'n'P session for Gracies first loss I reckon . I still cannot understand the Moussasi fight, was annoying and frustrating and made me dislike mo after it, would love to see Gracie tap him out . flyangler: I'm pretty sure a hamster is smarter than Mohammed, so I see him forgetting to protect his arm and neck while he is dry humping Roger, and will end up taking a crotch nap due to a triangle choke. GO HARD: i think Mo keeps this standing... So who wins the stand up... both need alot of work in that department... i would even say Gracie might be able to outpoint King Mo in the stand up, but i give Mo a power edge... im undecided on this fight. Wandering_Minstrel: Roger actually has some pretty good standup compared to Queen Mo. I like Gracie in this one.
