    Whoever lands the first clear, hard blow.

    Seriously, two big guys who both have a ton of power in their hands, whoever lands the first big one will win this fight.

    Leaning slightly towards JDS.

    I know there's no evidence to suggest Junior is shit hot on the ground in any of his fights, but he is a brown belt and he trains with the Nogs. I'd say he at least hangs with Reem.
    When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem begins to resemble a nail.

    Reem by knees followed by some form of viscious smash

    or JDS by uppercut and hook.

    Not sure but i am leaning towards Reem for power

    You're right, JDS is well versed in Jits, but my main concern is his lack of experience on the ground in an MMA fight, which is a different game altogether. JDS only loss is to a sub, and he hasn't spent much time at all on the ground. Reem has spent a long time there, has numerous submissions, has a beastly guillotine and is bigger, with brutal GNP.

    I think the experience and size difference are what will make the difference on the ground, rather than actual technical ability

    JDS, better chin and heavier hands IMO.

    JDS will be the 3rd HW going into a fight coming off the back of surgery.

    This has to be a big plus for Reem.

    Going with JDS. Don't think it will be a 5 round stand up war, but I do think it will be good while it lasts.
