I'd pick Davis to win more often than not, and Bader would be a coin toss.
Sensible matchups from a ranking perspective, but high risk and bad matchups stylistically,
I think there's a good chance Mousasi comes away from those fights with a decision loss, and another man's seed in his belly. |
I think it has more to do with where he fits in ranking wise then the actual style of opponent. Goose is on the verge of a title shot where as Mousasi is 2-3 fights away at best.
