fwiw, if football fans didn't love 1-0 games, Italian Serie A wouldn't be the third most popular league.

youtube has all the fights in completion too.

in addition, he also won his weight class in adcc that year, also winning all 4 fights by submission

8 for 8 with 8 finishes is pretty bonkers at that level

any idea how much of a weight advantage werdum had on him in that fight? seems like werdum had all the takedowns because of his size when they were clinching. the sweep is so epic. he's getting smothered by the bigger man the whole fight, then just slowly turns him over. werdum knows exactly what's happening and still can't stop it.

Mike Kyle is replacing the injured V. Overeem against Bigfoot. I think he's going to lose and then get a title shot at 205. Standard Strikeforce biz.

if your instructor sees you continually got for heel hooks when you know you aren't allowed too hes likely to roll with you and put you to sleep lol.

What kind of push does Hendricks get if he beats Story this weekend0?

Other than the TJ Grant fight, he's looked really dominant in UFC/WEC

Just saw that Koscheck is +325. Holy ****, that's pretty good.

I mean yeah, GSP is better, but not THAT much better. I wouldn't be shocked if Koscheck won.

Edit: wtf, he's actually +400. *bets*

GSP at +325 really isn't that surprising. I would have guessed it opened even higher

Best odds on GSP are -600. It's Koscheck who is +400 (unless that's what you meant).

Koscheck should be no more than +250 imo. I really don't want to bet against GSP, but I think I have to.
