    "I like Gonzaga in this fight by KO or submission," said Jonathan Brown, one of the keener observers of the sport and a writer for FightBeat.com. "First, Randy has always had trouble with grapplers who were bigger and stronger than him."

    Couture made light heavyweight (205) as recently as 2003-2006 and is small heavyweight, usually weighing in the mid-220s.

    "In the past," Brown explained. "Both Ricco Rodriguez and Josh Barnett were able to neutralize Randy's wrestling advantage and stop him with strikes. Now, at 44, Randy will be facing by far the best heavyweight grappler in MMA. ... I just don't think Randy will have any breathing room in this fight.

    "On their feet, Gonzaga has proved himself a devastating striker after his knockout of Mirko Filipovic. If they go to the ground, Randy will not only defend submissions but wicked strikes from the top. If Randy puts him on his back, he will constantly be fending off submissions. Randy's only advantage in this fight will be the ability to take him down in a clinch, but when he gets him there, what's he going to do with him?"

    Nobody. Cupey writes multiple articles and just puts different names to them to make it look there's a huge staff.
