I say Vera KO 1st round.Are you saying that vera had many option on the ground and standing up and KO matt hamill or youre saying that vera get killed from matt hamill.., what ever.,but for me I think vera has the better fighting skills than matt and I know even if matt will take the fight on the ground I know vera has great defensive stuff he can also reverse it,in the stand up position I know vera can avoid a real damage from matt hamill and counter the strikes of matt hamill like what he did in his fight with jardin.,I there for conclude that Vera will knock out matt the hammer hamill at the mid point of the fight... bill I dont understand the last statement you said,I think Vera has too many options on the ground and standing up.

I like Vera in this match up (even though I am not a fan of his). Hammill's striking may have improved but that is not saying much. If he tries to bang with Vera it will end like the Franklin fight, who does not have Vera's Muay Thai skills. On the ground Hammill has the wrestling ability over Vera, but Vera's BJJ game is alot better than Hammill's. I don't see this as a "classic match up" between a wrestler and BJJ because I think Vera has too many options on the ground and standing up. I say Vera KO 1st round.

Hopefully Hamill isn't one of those wrestlers that improved their striking and forget that they are really great at wrestling, abandon takedowns as part of a smart offensive strategy. I'm wondering, will Brandon Vera be able to overwhelm Hamill with Muay Thai strikes from a distance? Will Hamill simply over-power Brandon Vera? The mix of styles and approaches will make this fight interesting. I'm really glad Brandon Vera is more humbled and focused. He should thank the UFC for feeding him Mike Platt to boost his confidence. This will be exciting.

The last event, UFC 78, had a boring main card in paper and this looks like a lot of fun. I’m pretty pumped for a big event near me.
