Re: MMA Thread

He's done it two other times, so idk, maybe he's just lazy, all im wondering though if this is good or bad news for him when he fights.

Re: MMA Thread

King Mo said in an interview if it goes more than 1 round then Johnson is ****ed cardio wise after having to go through emergency rehydration then stay dehydrated tonight

I'm absolutely loving my 7 units on Vitor at -110ish average now I feel like Belfort has gone from being a 60% fav to a 70% fav at least.

Got half a unit on Etim, a quarter on Stout, a tenth on Olivera, Silva and Massenzio

Thinking i'm going to do a units worth parlays including Etim Silva Aldo Belfort and Stout probably as well not sure on which combos yet i'll decide once the lines are out I guess.

At best it is neutral. I don't think anyone would deliberately force themselves to flucuate their weight this much before any competition, except bobybuilders. It is not optimal metabolically to do so. No trainer would encourage their fighter or boxer to put themselves in this position the day before a competition. More reason to bet on Belfort, I hope!

Etim is going to lose, most likely by unan dec. The only way I see Etim winning is by some miracilious sub which happens like a max of 20% of the time.

Yea this is very possible.

One of my thoughts before this fatboy **** though was Belforts cardio.
He hasn't been out of round 1 in 3.5 years, and from what i've seen AJ can take a punch.
Also he hasn't fought a wrestler (that didn't get KO'd in 1 second) since when?

I'm still not sure what to make of this fight. Maybe i'll just go down with the ship and load some more money on AJ if the line keeps moving.

Re: MMA Thread

any thoughts on Carlo Prater vs Silva? Praters odds whispering sweet sweet love in my ears, and i need someone to help me stay away.

fading gonzaga at +110 is also oh so tempting.

Re: MMA Thread

Damn King Mo voiced exactly what I was gonna say. The way I see it, AJ has one round to win this fight most likely.

If you're going to bet Prater, bet on him by Sub since that's his biggest strength and Silva's biggest weakness AFAIK. But Silva should cruise easily.

Got: Omigawa +190, Belfort evensies, Mendes by Dec +400, Gonzaga -145.

Picks for the card: Carvalho Dec, Palhares Sub, Gonzaga Sub, Omigawa Dec, Silva (T)KO, Barboza Dec, Tavares Dec, Pyle Sub, Belfort (T)KO, Aldo Dec.

Re: MMA Thread

I need Oliveira to beat that bum Gonzaga, and AJ to not run out of steam.
Prater victory would be nice too.

gl guys.

Re: MMA Thread

I think vitor AJ is a do not bet, even though if I have a feeling vitor is going to get KO'd for a simple fact, vitors been in the game for 15 years old, he's at the same place as wanderlai and chuch liddell is, they had iron chins in their prime but the older they got, the more punches they took and now I think Vitor may be at the same place. AJ on the other hand has a very decent chin and I think both of them are going to get hit in the head, I just think AJ is going to be able to survive whilst Vitor is not.

Even though I have a bet on AJ, I hope vitor wins bc it's ***** disgraceful to not make weight, like not even close, we're talking about 15 pounds of missed weight.

edit: nvm, seems he hurt his leg and was not able to properly lose weight, think he said to dana like: "U know what happened" and Dana said, yeah I know about your leg.
