    On all the favorites as it looks.... Parlay time if I do bet straights at all those odds, but will be looking to play the props for better value.....

    Probably the best card write up out that I read so far.. http://www.mmamania.com/2015/10/21/9...-tv-mma-fights

    Don't know the odds yet for Venom Page but I'm assuming he'll be in the -1000 plus range as Bellator is indeed feeding him cans. Will probably parlay Halsey, Ward and Page.

    I agree and GL Unwritten.. I'm on the same page as those 3 picks of yours should hit.. You'll be paying alot to win a little even in a 3 teamer...

    I had to throw in Goiti in my 4 teamer just to make it worthy.. My straight card parlay...

    No props out for this yet.. So I'm stuck with a 100 buck 4 teamer so far.. That's it..

    I was looking into Goiti as well. He's been in Bellator and has a couple fights under his belt while Kobayashi is making his US debut.

    The biggest upset in Bellator? MVP can be cocky and careless at times when he's showboating imitating Anderson Silva. He will take big risks going for the highlight/flash KO, but this is a fight and it can happen to anyone.

    Another one I'm looking at that could be a surprise is Carvalho. He might be able to take Halsey to the championship rounds so I'm actually leaning the over 1.5 rounds at -115. 3 of the 4 main fights all have high juice -1000 and up. Goita odds down to -145 now.

    Main event over 1.5 now -130. Since Halsey is a huge favorite, I'm really hoping Carvalho can hang in there for at least 7.5 minutes. After all, he's won 11 in a row. 5 round fight, these guys need to pace themselves.

    Halsey deserved to lose. He was gassed after the failed arm lock triangle. Just needed another minute to increase the profits, but I'll still gladly be in the green. Up next UFC Dublin!

    Tivo'd just got home.. Fast forwarded thru the fights.. Was winning up until that last fight...

    Massive upset for Carvolho.. Lazy kick to the liver ends the fight unbelievably... So much for betting on the Wrestlers.. Errrrrr..

    Was wondering in the back of my mind if one of these huge dogs would win on this card days ago.. One did.. Anything can happen in MMA...

    That was a +800 hit for anyone that bet it.. Next.....

    I don't think Halsey ate a full shin to the body.

    It was just the toes / ball of Carvalho's foot that made contact.

    Its rare for someone to be finished by that shot. Maybe a 1 in a million.

    "Finished by a teep." That's an interesting legacy to have in MMA.
