Prediction: wrong Schafer wrong Submission wrong Round 1

Rivera could pull out the KO in this fight, but I think Schafer gets this fight to the ground, and wins via submission or decision.

Prediction: wrong Schafer wrong Submission wrong Round 2

If it stays standing then Schafer is going to lose but I don't think it will, I think Schafer will manage to get Rivera down in the second and submit him.

Prediction: wrong Schafer wrong Submission wrong Round 1

Who's got weak TD defense, Jorge Rivera does, who has notoriously weak submission defense Jorge Rivera does. A fight tailor made for Schafer.

Prediction: correct Rivera correct KO/TKO wrong Round 1

Going against the Tapology community (and the betting odds) on this one. I don't think Schafer has what it takes to overcome Rivera's stand up. Stat breakdown at: http://www.breakdownfights.com/?p=2703

Prediction: correct Rivera wrong Decision

I'm changing my pick to Rivera....He's on MMAjunkie Radio today and fighters who have done the show on the day of their fights are 9-0! It's a ******* ridiculous reason but i don't care! haha

With Rivera retiring after this, I would have to assume his heart isnt in it. I've got Paul Schafer via dec.
