I'll take meathead in this fight surprisingly.
I have a feeling Roy cant get him down and Matt will out strike him.
I feel as if Matt got gunshy against Kongo due to the step up in competition but will surprise alot of people in this Nelson matchup.

Mitrione was already scheduled to fight De Fries, so it is not that he was desperate to get a fight. He simply saw this as a better opportunity for him and he took the offer.
Kinda risky fight for both of them, because the loser will be very near of getting cut from the roster.

I guess im in the minority but I like this fight. I also think mitrione can pull it off with his improved striking and how well he uses his reach along with his kicks. As long as he keeps his distance and composure he can pull off a decision.
