Perefect matchmaking Joe Silva, youve been putting on some dumb matches recently CB vs Dan Miller, etc....you roared nicely with this one.Alan Belcher has the better polished stand up, but Wilson has more power and a better ground game. Belcher does not seem to like to go for the kill or is not good enough too, I see an entertaining fight, I think Wilson will rock Alan with his power and beat him up on way to a solid decision victory.

Very good match-up. Looking back at both of their resumes, Belcher seems to be in fights that tend to go long, while Wilson tends to win big or lose big in fights that don't go the distance. I like Alan, and he's no doubt very skilled, but sometimes it seems like he doesn't pull the trigger enough in his fights. Belcher's put in a lot of minutes in the octagon, and he's solid all-around, but I think Wilson's power and BJJ black belt will make the difference here. I've got Wilson.

Belcher will win

I think Belcher would have finished him if he had leg kicked after the punch landed.
