Just like Chris Weidman vs. Anderson Silva in the main event, I predict that the rematch will have the same victor as the first. I do, however, suspect that there will be a bit more blood. Whether it’s a bleeding face or an open fracture of Meisha Tate’s arm remains to be seen, but there will be blood. I predict that Ronda Rousey will continue in her quest to replace Rickson Gracie as the world’s most famous arm collector and take another 1st round victory.
