I wish he still had the aggression he had around the time he kicked the shit out of Tom Erikson. Heath's an emotional fighter, BUT he's NEVER been afraid to fight anyone. He's handled good guys and has BEEN handled by good guys but he always brings it. He just needs to get the snap back on his kicks and punches. His kicks now are like night and day compared to HH kicks around 2000-2001. He has GREAT standup, he just needs to be in shape to display it. I hope he wins.

He probably won't stand very long, as he will eat alot of kicks and punches. I got Herring winning this by UD. I think he should and will utilize his strength and wrestling to take it to the mat in a dominant position for all 3 rounds. Kongo's standup is sweet, but his wrestling is lackluster.

I think HH wins this fight standing or on the ground.

I think alot of people are underestimating Herrings ability to stand up and strike.
He wont be in that much trouble standing with Kongo,and if he does get overwhelmed on the feet he can always take him down. Kongos ground game is garbage.
