MMA Fighting is reporting that Gegard Mousasi will fight Jake O'Brien at DREAM.15.
The last time we saw Gegard fight he was being taken down over and over again by "King Mo". Granted, Muhammad Lawal is a better wrestler than O'Brien but you have to wonder what kind of takedown defense Mousasi will be bringing into this fight.
In that regard the fight is a risk. Thus a victory should offer some gains for Gegard. But if he loses it will be a serious blow for the 24 year old that many still believe is the next big thing.
Update: Just because you are taking a test doesn't mean it has to be hard *wink*

Gegard will crush him...
King Mo’s abilities are MUCH higher than O’Brien’s.
IF YOU CANNOT WRESTLE, FIND ANOTHER PROFESSION...
I’m thinking this is the perfect rebound fight for Mousasi. O’Brien isn’t on the same level as King Mo wrestling-wise and Mousasi will now be forced to work on his wrestling in preparation for this bout.

You nailed it with the title for this piece Zak. This is a pass/fail wrestling exam for Mousasi and I expect him to pass with flying colors.

Also
Dream.15 will be in a ring, not a cage, so Mousasi will not be pinned up against it or anything.
