I'm on Silva, Munoz, Gonzaga, Leben.

I'm not sure what you guys are seeing in Siver that I'm not. Cub has looked awesome lately against some really solid guys.

I'm taking Weidman. He was very relaxed at the weigh-in with the one liners, it's not false confidence.

I'm so used to seeing Anderson towering over his opponents. Maybe i don't remember it right.

Swanson KO +425 is fantastic value IMO.

I thought it was

I decided not to take Boetsch, might take the under in that fight though and also prob going to take Gracie as a small dog, plus have Anderson, Siver already plus Edgar in a parlay, may take Barboza by TKO or ITD as well.

Siver is pretty underestimated and he's kind of flown under the radar for the general public. Dude has really solid standup, has a good build for TDD. Only thing seems he crumbles a bit easy to punches, but all his losses have been to good standup guys, most of them I rank higher than cub swansons standup, and all of them came at lw and Siver is of the smaller proportions so he fits quite nice at featherweight.

I remember as Pearson doing slightly better(and winning the fight) but then getting caught in round 2 doing some random ****.

Gracie by sub just jumped to +401....thoughts? Is this good for the company? I don't know that much about either fighter.

Gracie is the best sub fighter in the world seems like a good bet at +401

3u Anderson Silva -219
1u Cub Swanson -201
3u Tim Kennedy -144
1u Gabriel Gonzaga -230

Thinking about throwing some money on Edgar too. He* is almost certainly winning but the price is a little steep I guess.

Pretty sure Swanson was winning the whole way. I was on Pearson there, remember being pretty frustrated. Think Siver's mediocre chin and Swanson's solid power are gonna spell doom here for the German.

Maybe I was wrong, but I remember it as a competive fight at least. And maybe bc I was biased I thought Pearson got the better till the tko. But yeah, swanson will win a lot by that, but I think Swanson is a bit reckless with his striking and I think Siver is definitely capable of winning a decision here a decent amount of the time. Think line is closer to +150~ around for siver. Hopefully not too much off.

Bet Silva now (@ -230) or wait a couple more hours for the PPV to start?

Also casualfan.jpg says Siver seems like value and Craig looks pretty good.

Still expect casual money to come on Silva as PPV starts, likely best to bet earlier on Silva if going with him.

value is on Silva aorn. I really hope casual money comes in hard on him to make Weidman worthwhile again.

Silva by TKO/KO +110 actually is all I think I am going to play on that fight. Silva's route to victory versus what the respective lines are at (-230 to win & +110 by TK/KO) just seems like the only play in my amateur opinion unless it somehow moves below -200.

the only question about silva is round 1 or round 2? kinda feel late round 1 after he waits for weidman to strike and counters

Silva -199 now on Pinny...might have to double down

All this hype is actually good for Silva. If he loses, it won't be as bad as if Weidman had no hype, and people will say, well it was expected, father time etc. And if AS wins, it adds more to his legacy because he has now beat all of the best, the best strikers in the division, the best wrestlers etc. This is a lot better for his resumé than say if he had fought Bisping.

I'm just going to enjoy that fight. I'm rooting for AS, but don't really mind if Weidman wins. At least the division is going to get a bit more interesting. Wouldn't mind seeing Vitor/Weidman, Rockhold/Weidman, even bisping/weidman.
