Mac Danzig: Carano by decision, probably.

Zac George: Cyborg makes Gina less hot inside two rounds -- TKO.

Nick Thompson: Gina uses footwork and angles to pick at and frustrate Cyborg in round one. In round two, we [see] Cyborg overcommitting and making mistakes. Gina via submission.

Din Thomas: I’m picking Gina. I think her technique is better. Plus, I think she comes from a better, more advanced camp. Her gameplan and strategy will be more solid.

Charlie Valencia: Carano wins by decision. How can you hit that beautiful face?

Chael Sonnen: Cyborg? I thought he was a middleweight.

Frank Shamrock: Gina. I think she’s the more technical fighter, and she’ll just tire the big, scary Cyborg girl out.

Brad Blackburn: This is definitely a fight that I am looking forward to watching. I want to see how this is going to pan out. Cyborg has been very dominant in her performances the last couple years, but I don't believe that her past opponents have been as big, as good or as pretty as Gina. This is a fight that I wouldn’t want to put my money on until after the first round.

Robin Black: This is going to be a fun fight to watch. I’m cheering for Carano because she’s a fox, and I believe she’ll have the more complete game. Her muay Thai and stand-up game should at least be equal to Cyborg’s, and she’ll have the sharper wrestling and submissions. Should be a great fight. Gina should win by decision.

Patrick Cote: I’m going with Cyborg. This girl is just crazy. Her stance is freaky.

Billy MacDonald: The more that I think about this fight, the more trouble I have picking who I believe will win. On one hand, you have Cris Santos, who looks like she’s close to overdosing on Gamma-O, and on the other, you have the sentimental pick in Gina Carano. I hear many people saying that Cyborg will dominate in every facet of this fight, but I truly believe that they are underestimating Gina’s stand-up. I’ve known a couple of the guys over at Xtreme Couture, and they say Gina kicks harder than most of the pros in the gym -- that’s the guys and girls. And as impressive as Cyborg was in choking out my boy, Aaron Tru, Gina has way better muay Thai than Aaron. When it all comes down to the announcer calling out the name of the winner, I see it being Gina Carano via decision.

Stephane Vigneault: Cyborg is an animal. I go with Cyborg by TKO in round three.

Gabe Ruediger: Cyborg. I’ve heard stories about her training camp and no one, male or female, being able to hang with her. I have a feeling that there are very few women who can hang with her ferocity.

Erin Toughill: I like both women for different reasons, but I think if Carano comes in mentally strong and prepared for this fight, she can win. The first thing for either woman is the cardio. If Gina is ready for five-by-fives that will also be a determining factor. I’d like to see Gina use her footwork, straight punches and fight intelligently. If Gina gets in a slugfest with Cyborg, in my opinion, that’s not a good idea for Gina. I don’t think Gina will submit her, but I’d like to see her counterpunch and be patient, then an opening could present itself for a TKO. If Gina gets taken down, that could also put her in a bad position to be pounded on, but I say Gina by unanimous decision.

Tom Gavrilos: I believe Cyborg will have superiority in striking and on the ground. Cyborg is going to overpower Carano and take the win.

Stav Economou: This is a fight I’ve been really looking forward to, not only because it’s the first women’s title to be contested on a major show, not even because it’s the main event of Strikeforce, but because it’s a fight between two amazing athletes. I think this fight will come down to Cyborg’s aggression and superior striking being too much for Gina. I predict Cristiane by TKO in the second round.

Thomas Denny: I watched a video of Cyborg, and I got scared. Glad I am not fighting her. Cyborg -- second-round TKO.

Ben Saunders: Skill-wise, I say they both seem pretty equally matched. Gina would probably be better at promoting our sport than Cyborg. As far as having men and women of all ages loving the looks and personality of Gina, she seems to be good at being that star figure in women’s MMA. I see her only helping the sport gain more fans, and for that reason alone, I am rooting for Gina. Cyborg is a beast and one hell of a fighter, but the fact is she scares people.
