    I wonder if Mousasi and Hendo would fight each other. Mousasi makes his way out to TQ to train sometimes.

    Yeah, true, hadn't thought of that. Doesn't Lawal train in Temecula too?

    He fights outta Temecula, but I believe he trains in Colorado.

    I thought Lawal was in New Mexico with Greg Jackson?

    What I read was he fights in Colorado in a gym that has an association with Greg Jackson

    You're probably right. Just thought I'd heard that he and Rashad are training buddies and wasn't Rashad in his corner for his last fight (or maybe the Moussassi fight)? I think I also read that he trains with Carwin though who I know trains in Colorado- further strengthening the idea of a Jackson affiliate in Colorado...

    I dunno.

    Yeah, Jackson's got a couple of gyms, but his home gym is in New Mexico. He's got one in Colorado that Carwin fights out of. I believe that might be the same gym as King Mo.

    Wiki lists his camps as Kingdom of Mayhem and Grudge TC.

    Grudge TC is Trevor Wittman's gym. Carwin, Evans, Schuab, Cerrone, Marquardt, etc. Partner with Jackson's.

    Kingdom of Mayhem didn't bring up any hits on Google. Must be Mo's gym. Dunno if Jason Miller is involved.

    Mayhem is actually linked with Team Quest, but I've never heard of him training down here. I've read that he trains in the OC.

    Feijao or Hendo?

    Hendo needs to rush Feijao. He can't sit there and let Feijao dictate the pace. Rush him with strikes and try to dirty box.

    Haven't seen much of Feijao but he took a long time to put Lawal away. I wouldn't say rushing him is the right idea because hes a good striker in his own right. Hendo has the advantage standing still but that is also Feijao's best chance to win the fight, no? I guess whether Hendo keeps it standing or decides to wrestle him I think Hendo is the favorite. I just think wrestling is more of a sure bet but at the same time Hendo isn't one to back down and make the fight boring but like they say, when you've got great wrestling you have the power to dictate whether the fight is standing or on the ground.

    Hendo by KO lol. Just saying if he keeps it standing (I reckon he will) it ups Feijao's chances.

    I don't know much about Feijao, but I know he's got good power in his hands and he's strong. I dunno about his BJJ and I've read that he is terrible striking wise when he gets pressured.
