EPTI saw a post earlier about a Pros Pick feature for the upcoming GSL finals. As an MMA fan I read the ones Sherdog does all the time, and when I was running my MMA site did them also for a time.
So since I know most of the pros, I sort of thought it would be cool to collect their opinions!
So I asked "Who do you think will win (July or MC) and why?", and here's what I got (will be updating as I get more replies):
AtteroMC because he never lets his opponent take the advantage
AxslavMC, good early game micro and july plays aggresive
BadMC, Protoss
bLuRMC! Cause protoss is extremely strong vs Z, and MC is amazing at taking advantage of every mistake his opponent makes.
desRowIt is a very close call. I've been loving how july plays lately and agressive zergs are the most scary one. However, I need to support my protoss brother and I think MC has a great BW background and is very talented at SC2 so I believe he will beat july.
Just like he did in Season 3

djWHEATJuly. Cause he inspires me! July Zerg has a style that makes me excited as a Zerg player... So regardless of the outcome I expect awesome games!
FutureMC, he had been dominating lately and after seeing the last time they clashed it is clear MC is in a different league the July. Maybe in the future July will be ready but MC takes the series this time.
JinroMC, its PvZ between best player in the world and a huge underdog. PvZ is hard enough as it is without having to play the far and away best player in sc2
KawaiiRiceMC - he plays Protoss
KiWiKaKiMC probably, cause he abuse like no one else
IdrAmc julys bad mcs protoss
iNcontroLMC cause he is better
iNkAmc cus he a boss
MachineMC, because hes Protoss
MasqMC isn't going to lose to any bust, which seems to be julys strongpoint
If July can catch MC offguard with something sneaky, he can win. But MC is going to expect it and have forcefield ready I think

RetMC because he's a boss
Rookie (formerly ReachTheSky)I think that July will win some unorthodox aggression, MC won't be ready for it
RyzeI pick MC to win, I think he is going to have a more confident mental state against july going into the match given his previous wins. This will allow him to play more comfortably on stage and I expect to see him play at his potential when they face off, & I dont think july can handle MC playing at his best
StalifeMC b/c he's perfect, and also protoss is OP atm
ShethMC. too good of solid style
SLushMC. More experience and worst MU for july, and its a bo7 so less luck
ThisIsJimmy July because hes a golden mouse winner and hes old school 
, and i want him to win, therefore he will win ! Also, its torches team so you gotta root for him.p.

WhiplashMC,hes 2-0 on julyzerg.and he plays in a style that can handle julyzerg's hyperaggressiveness. I anticipate it will go 3-1 for MC, and 90% that july 6 pools game 1
ZelniqIt will be close, but July's aggressive style will overall hurt him a bit more than it will help. MC will take the series 4-3, but it will be a close final game.
Right now the standings are at:
July - 3
MC - 22
July - 3 MC - 22
