Really good match up here. 2 guys that are top MW when they want to fight at MW. I'd have to take Lindland in this one. I'm way more of a Horn fan, but Lindland has just looked alot better lately. Horn just doesn't seem his old self. I don't know if it's too many fights or what, but he isn't as smooth as he used to be. I say Lindland by decision in this one.
I agree with Alvin that this has the potential to be a boring match, but it also has the potential to be an excellent technical match. You never know how these kind of fights are gonna play out.

How old is Horn now?

I think Horn's about 30 or so. Not too old, he's just had a shit load of fights.

Lindland? Well, I'd rather watch puddle evaporate.
There is real potential that this will be one of the most boring fights in the history of mma! | Horn said he's a better boxer than Liddell... which, technically he is. He pointed out his boxing style was more polished and had a better technical standup game. He didn’t say he was a better striker than Liddell. Chuck put a hurting on him and Jeremy just couldn’t counter and take the fight to the ground. Against Lindland I expect to see two guys in the clinch working submissions. I think It’ll be great!

Lindland arguably could have won a decision with one of the better 205's in the world in Rampage Jackson. I think he will handle Jeremy Horn...but Horn always can surprise you.

This is going to be an awesome fight I'd say Horn by sub in the late 1st.

This fight will definitely give us a better idea of where each of them should rank in the top 10. With Franklin vs. Silva also coming up the top 10 rankings in the MW division will be a lot more then just an estimated guess.
