    For this match I am coming down heavily in favor of Aidan Marren.

    Adrian Degorski is probably the hardest puncher in MMA at his weight and could probably knock any fighter out if he could connect.
    That being said Degorski has proven repeatedly that he has not got the skill in the other two ranges to allow him to fire the heavy artillery. I think with a veteran like Aidan Marren he will get taken down and submitted again, I have no doubt that there will be a day when Aidrian's takedown defence is such that MMA fighters around the world will shudder at the thought of facing him, but that is not yet and I think Aidan is going to be too much for him.

    ....

    Aiden Marren by submission Round 1

    I'm not so sure. Tom Haddock had trouble taking Adrian down, only managing it after 4 or 5 attempts.
    Aidan Marron is a decent striker and good on the ground, but I don't know if his clinch is as good as Tom's.

    I think Arni Isaakson (sp?) proved that if he doesn't get the takedown early he could be in trouble against such a good striker.

    Adrian should have a strength and size advantage too.

    Despite all that I think experience will be a factor and I'll take Aidan Marron by submission at the end of the first round, but it won't be easy.
