I hope Falcao puts on a real fight. If im not mistake, he mocked Paraisy mid fight.

Falcao was messing around quite a bit in his last one. I think this will be good though.

Slava doesnt seem like the type of fighter who gives his opponents time to mock.  I think this will be a high pressure / pace fight from the jump.

Falcao is so goddamn explosive but he seems to take his foot off the gas, I think he Slava takes over in the later rounds and wins a decision.

I've got Vasilevsky. He really impressed me in his last fight.

Prediction: wrong Vasilevskiy   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 3  

This fight should be good however long it lasts. I could see either Falcao just coming out and blitzing Vasilevsky, or he could try and expose a weakness in Vasilevsky's wrestling/grappling game and just take him to a decision. Falcao seems to fade though as the fight goes on and Vasilevsky really turned it up against O'Donnell in rounds 2 and 3. Falcao has never lost a decision, he's been subbed twice, and KO'd twice.

Prediction: wrong Vasilevskiy   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

So the Dutch court that ruled Vasilevsky is under contract with M-1 and M-1 is not allowing him to fight elsewhere doesn't mean anything apparently to US Athletic Commissions.  It's been quiet about M-1 getting the Dutch ruling upheld in the US courts, I wonder how aggressively they're pursuing it here.

Prediction: wrong Vasilevskiy   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 1  

I think Falcao's age is really gonna work against him, especially in the later rounds as most other posters have said. Falcao is only 31, but his fighting age is much larger. I think this is gonna be Vasilevsky's coming out party. Those Russians are crazy, and they fight like they have nothing to lose. There's no idea of self-preservation, kinda like how Fedor used to fight. 

I think Vasilevsky is either gonna TKO/KO Falcao in the later rounds, or is gonna win the last two rounds to a unanimous/majority/split decision victory. Vasilevsky's first time fighting in the United States was March, and I think he's going to come into this fight with less ring rust and butterflies in his stomach.
