lets not forget Lavar Johnson your

against struve

bahahaha wait a minute come to think of it gaybe never posts his plays until after the fight is over then he makes up his own record like were all dumb enough to believe him.

lol neither of those plays were close to being locks, dumbass-- if youre gonna try make fun of me, use facts lol... i've lost a lot more bets than just those 2, dunno what your point was

keep making smart sure thing bets like shalarus over dos anjos lolololollllll you made a few retarded bets like that and said they were sure things but i only bothered at least remembering one to make a point to shut you down in the future if you ever try to say anything. being that confident in shalarus over dos anjos takes all credibility away from you. me thinking papazian and johnson had a good chance vs their opponents was not far fetched. if i was as confident as you were, it still wouldn't be nearly as far fetched!

Dude who picked Shalarus over Dos Anjos +2680 (imsmarterthannobody)
Dude who went 12-3 in the second to last thread he posted -3000 (your cousin gabe)

Get your bets in.

**JamesKim** · 03-11-13, 03:16 AM

GSP via decision -195 large

Carlos Condit ITD small

Nate Marquardt medium

Johnny is gonna pay the price for looking at his opponents in the eye, his chin is too high up and Condit is gonna find it.

edit: Also added Marquardt ITD small.

gonna have to agree with Mickey Rourke, all these butt hurt homos that talk shit about Nick Diaz are all cowards, the fact is Nick Diaz is real, he doesn't try to front like someone he's not he says what's on his mind and if you can't respect that then you're on the opposite line of reality, you're living in some pseudo reality created by UFC's public relations team. This sport is about fighting, it's not about who's the friendliest most respectful guy that shit is weak and it's oversaturating the ufc, i fukn hate this fist bumping between rounds hugging each other etc. That's your opponent he want's to fuk you up you gotta fuk him up every step of the way. Stop dancing around giving each other fist bumps and fight. That's why I like real fighters when it comes time to fight they fight and Diaz is a real fighter, he's never backed off his opponents even when he's losing.

yeah but Diaz then goes and says the complete opposite..."I dont want to hurt anybody in there, Im not trying be hurting them".

On Carlos Condit at +115. Hendricks's stock is pretty high, especially after knocking out Kampmann and Fitch...however he won't get that lucky against Condit...

If you take a look at Hendrick's other "victories" in the UFC, they aren't all that impressive...his wins over Kosh and Pierce were coin tosses...

If condit weathers the initial storm, he'll pull off a UD or maybe even a late stoppage.

Ellenberger is a very dynamic, strong fighter....but having him at -165 is ridiculous.

That's what a lot of serial killers say about their victims doesn't take away from the fact that they killed them.

Gabe bragging about winning money is like Steve Urkel bragging about how many girls he banged.

This week on GSP's Monday training camp report we would like to send out a special thank you to Jorge Blanco(the one in the red Jacket).

Jorge is an expert boxer that qualified for the Spanish Olympic boxing team. He is an excellent puncher that was very able to replicate Nick Diaz's unique boxing style. He has been and incredible asset in Georges preparation.

Georges has been looking very good in practice, we have had numerous professionals fighters working with us for this camp and several great Black Belts including Murillo Santana and Braulio Estima.

Tristar gym has been filled with great talent these past few months and I would like to thanks everyone who has contributed to our curriculum. Most of all I would like to thank John Danaher who has help prepare GSP for so many years and especially for his weekly visits to our gym.

Georges has now reach the final week of preparation which mostly consists of cutting weight, so workouts will be very short and designed to shed water weight.

Please support us by liking and enjoy the fight.

best

Coach Zahabi

Sounds like Fireass is trying to psyche out Nick Diaz with all this "top talent"

**Vaughany** · 03-11-13, 02:15 PM

maxi-bet Camozzi at +120...pretty much a pick-em fight.... Camozzi is tougher and better cardio, but Ring gives the judges hand-jobs behind the scenes so just about balances out. As I've got no balls I'll probably hedge with Ring by Decision...can't see him finishing unless he does what Noke did to Camozzi, but I think Camozzi has improved a lot since then and is more composed through experience. If I recall correctly the only guy Ring has finised was Head and Head gassed out big time on his debut and kind of gave up, Ring didnt even have hooks in when he secured the choke. Maybe Im under-rating Ring a little tho

**Grabaka** · 03-11-13, 02:22 PM

Good insight on the handjobs.
I should have maxi bet him too....just throwed 1 unit.

**Grabaka** · 03-11-13, 02:27 PM

$250.00 on Carlos Condit @ +100
$100.00 on Nate Marquardt @ +145
$100.00 on Chris Camozzi @ +120

$368.00 on GSP Dec @ -184 (This one will be an arb)
$200.00 on Marquardt Dec @ +305
$165.00 on Marquardt vs Ellenberger Dec @ -165

I like it. And i look at every interview of Hendricks and can help but think a) This guy is mega pissed and b) hes so in love with his right hand. The guy cant even talk hes becoming this new Diaz bro just rambling pissed about his titleshot. Imagine if he loses. I want Rogan to ask him about GSP if so....we might get a good tv moment.

**Vaughany** · 03-11-13, 02:39 PM

"Don’t take anything for granted when you’re fighting me, if you assume that you have an edge here, or you’re gonna dominate me there…you better think again man, or I’m coming in your backyard and I’m gonna f**k you up.”

**Grabaka** · 03-11-13, 02:41 PM

BTW Wineland has no shot? At a first glance i think those are good odds.

yeah would have to be nearer +400 for me to consider playing him. Think he'll survive tho and go distance, think he has better shot than previous guys tho as his movement and takedown defence is good...better takedown defence than McDonald, better footwork and movement than Faber, Jorgensen, and Pickett

**Sacrelicious** · 03-11-13, 04:05 PM

On Comozzi as well. Wanted to get better then -200 on Ricci, ah well, no plays there unless it improves.

I'm holding off on betting on Condit, I think the line might get better, might also want to wait and see the point handicap on him. Unfortunately missed the Condit opener, but I suspect he hits +125 again.

**Sacrelicious** · 03-11-13, 04:07 PM

GSP by UD is out at -210ish now, dunno how I got GSP by decision at -195 last week, helluva bargain.

**Imsmarterthanu** · 03-11-13, 04:18 PM

I don't see Hendricks knocking out Condit

Condit by decision

UFC 158's Patrick Cote in 'over the top' condition for welterweight debut

by Matt Erickson on Mar 11, 2013 at 10:00 am ET

After years at middleweight, Patrick Cote's first cut to welterweight was supposed to be a miserable one – or at least that would be the common perception.

But not the case. Cote (18-8 MMA, 5-7 UFC), who on Saturday meets debuting Strikeforce crossover Bobby Voelker (24-8 MMA, 0-0 UFC) at UFC 158, has done a slow cut to 185. And thanks to the help of nutritionists, he's got his eyes on another potential post-fight career, as well.

UFC 158 takes place Saturday at Bell Center in Cote's home city of Montreal. Cote and Voelker close out the preliminary card on FX ahead of a main card on pay-per-view.

"We started to cut the weight in December, so we took our time," Cote told MMAjunkie.com Radio(www.mmajunkie.com/radio) this past week. "But it's all about the knowledge of nutrition and the knowledge of what you put in your body. I've learned a lot in this process. My frame is made for 170. Four of five years ago, I was an average middleweight. There are guys who walk around at 230 and make 185, so those are pretty big dudes. So it was a smart choice to drop to 170."

Cote planned to drop from 185 to 170 this past year after his fight with Alessio Sakara. But when that fight resulted in a disqualification win for Cote at UFC 154, also in Montreal, the choice was made to match the two up again to see if thing could get settled without any controversy.

The two planned to meet again on this card, but a Sakara illness forced him out, paving the way for Cote to make the drop to 170 with the rematch off.

"It was a lot easier than I thought," Cote said of the drop. "I'm working with professional nutritionists (who are) working with the Montreal Canadiens. I didn't starve and I ate pretty well. I still eat close to 2,700 calories a day. We did it all during the training camp, and it was 10 times easier than I thought (it would be). I cut the gluten, and for me that was a big part of why I was still gaining weight. I'm going back to school after my fight to be a nutritionist, because it interests me."

Voelker will be fighting for the first time in 20 months, though he comes into the fight on a three-fight win streak with a pair of victories over Roger Bowling and a win over Cory Devela while in Strikeforce. Consider three of his past four fights have been against Bowling, seeing Cote across the cage from him probably will come as a welcome change of pace, not to mention just being in a fight after the long layoff.

Cote said his opponent may take some adjusting once the fight starts, but if he plans for that to work to his advantage, he could wind up in a precarious position.

"I know when you don't fight at a high level like that for a long time, it's going to take time to adjust yourself during the fight," he said. "When I came back and fought Alan Belcher, he gave me 10 straight kicks before I was able to do something. But Bobby Voelker is having his first fight in the UFC, so for sure he's going to come hungry. If I think he's going to be slower or weaker, he's going to surprise me."

Cote, who also works the UFC's French broadcasts when he's not fighting, said anyone who thinks dropping 15 extra pounds will have a negative impact on any power he brings in the standup game – including Voelker – might be sorely mistaken.

He plans on the cut being nothing but a fresh start, and one he can use to ride out the rest of his fighting career.

"Getting power in your hands, it's not about the weight – it's about technique," Cote said. "I'm a technical boxer, and I feel as if I have the same power. But I'm 10 times faster and I can push the pace a lot more. I'm in really good shape right now. ... I feel 10 times faster and light on my feet. My footwork is better, too. I've never been in bad condition, but it's over the top right now. I'll go there to finish the fight."

And when things finally do wind down, he'll have the commentating as a backup. Or maybe even this newfound love of nutrition and the science of cutting weight.

"I'm still going to fight for three, four, five years if I'm lucky," he said. "The TV is going well, so when I stop fighting I'm going to have a lot of options. I'm still enjoying fighting and training and I want to stay in the UFC as long as possible. That's why I train my ass off every day. But I know one day it's going to stop, and when it stops I'll have options to do whatever I want after."

Cardio and TDD to make it a prolonged stand up battle, in which he may very well have an edge. Barao should be able to out-strike him by mixing it up, but Wineland has far better hands. Closer to -150 Barao, maybe -200 at a stretch I think.

Ring seems like the type of guy that would eagerly and enthusiastically go well beyond a good ole fashioned for a judges decision.
