UFC 168: Weidman Vs Silva 2 (December 28, 2013)

[BIGDAY]

Guys. Careful with Chris Weidman... I plan on playing him. I've been known to mush wagers...

[Vaughany]

Gunshard says Bankroll management

nunya says quarter Kelly

bubzy says no

vaughany says arb

punisher says sue weidman if he loses

yep! Arb away and just enjoy the show! Dont get a fight like this too often!

[Sacrelicious]

Weidman up to +135-+140ish depending on book.

[Ron_Paul_2012]

Weidman up to +135-+140ish depending on book.

I got him @ +144 via Bookmaker.

[Mercersux]

I got him @ +144 via Bookmaker.

nabbed him @ +140. On him huge now.

[Thor4140]

If Weidman doesn't win it in the first two rounds i think it is over for him.

[PunisherIND]

Weidman up to +135-+140ish depending on book.

are you on weidman?

[Vaughany]

Lol

[RubberKettle]

Depends on if you bet him or not.

Ha, not betting any on them just watching.

[Digo]

If Weidman doesn't win it in the first two rounds i think it is over for him.

I think the same. He always shows a bad cardio.

[fightbetter]

...anybody got any plays on Michael Johnson? We got a whole card to analyze why is everybody only talking about Anderson Weidman?

I think Michael Johnson is coming into his own right now, will be more athletic and just as strong as Tibau. Plus with Tibaus weigh cut, anything can go wrong.

I also like Dennis Siver over Manny. Mannys gonna try to grapple and land bombs and I just see Siver avoiding the takedown with his improved grappling of late( was out grappling Cub Swanson before ko and completely dominated Nam Phan) and pick him apart on the feet.

And my last supremely confident pick is Robbie Peralta over Estevan Payan. I don't know a super lot about Payan except that he got out grappled and sliced up bad bad verse Jeremey Stephens, but I do know that Robbie will come into this fight focused and ready to fight

I quit my job so I can focus all my attention on betting.

[Beelzebubzy]

Wait until odds are released or pm some people

best of luck

THanks you to... But why is it a sin to talk about fights before the odds are announced?
I knows odds influence your picks but I mean...I'm Trying to hear some insight on this whole card!

What blez said

[Bumdeal]

Anderson did what he does every fight, try to get into the head of his competitor and force them into bad decisions.

Andy says it was a simple mechanics mistake, his feet being improperly positioned.

You're going to see the same clowning this time around, Anderson wants to keep this fight standing and Weidman will come in with the strategy of using his standup to set up takedowns.

A few things to consider.. Anderson is tired. Being champ and having so many people (countrymen) have such high expectations can break anyone down (see GSP) and Anderson was champ for a long, long time. Lyoto Machida has dropped to Middleweight, and has aspirations for the title. Anderson will not stand in his way. So either Anderson wins and vacates the title or maybe, just maybe, he is in it for one more cash-in before calling it quits. He didn't want to rematch Weidman until Dana and his master negotiators got to him.

Weidman looked gassed in second round but most likely suffered an adrenaline dump which is completely understandable and most likely won't happen again. Weidman didn't have Matt Serra in his corner who is actually a great corner man, he will have him this time around.

I love Anderson and first fight broke my heart, but I don't see him winning here.

I agree with you however i dont count anderson out yet. He was looking good in that second round, winning in my opinion. Granted it could be due to an adrenaline dump on wwidmans part. Well see what happens.

It lasted just over a minute, and during that minute, the best shots landed were Weidman punching Silva in the head. All he did was dance around and land a couple of leg kicks.

[TPowell]

guys, Weidman did everything he wanted in the first round. The ONLY shot Silva had was to get Weidman in a stand up striking affair and he couldn't even win THAT fight. I think Weidman takes Silva down early and often. Maybe gets a sub, if not a UD.

[Sacrelicious]

are you on weidman?

On Weidman, fade away good sir!

I got a sprinkle on rousey wins in 3rd rnd +2000. Does any1 give Tate a chance? I thnk line is a bit high but can't pull the trigger on tate

[Bumdeal]

Rousey has won every fight of her 7pro 3am fight career by armbar in the first round, including against Tate a little over a year ago. -130

I think Tate will have a much better showing this time but still gets subbed. I'd love for her to win but that won't happen. 20-1 on Rousey rnd3 ? I actually like that bet alot. May sprinkle some myself.

wow rly?

[bjpenn85]

I wagered not 1.round rousey last time...and that bet was 5 sec away from cashing bigtime. Buy that -130 and good luck.

Yeah your right. I think we can analyze this one all day. Well see what happens. I favor anderson.

[MD]

I favour Weidman pretty heavily, but it depends on what both of them do to adjust. Weidman was the better-prepared fighter, both on the feet and on the ground, in their first fight, but Anderson is an exceptionally gifted strategist, though maybe not as much so as Weidman at this point in his career.

My biggest worry is that Weidman will gas after two rounds. Somewhat unlikely, but it's the biggest obstacle between me and an even more massive bet on Weidman.

how do u know?!

how do u know?!

Part-time fighters have a history of overperforming and always showing up in shape and ready to fight, obviously.

Well good luck i guess. I wont be on either one. Too many question marks for me.

[Educ8d Degener8]

He's Robbie Peralta. Obviously.

ha yeah!

The classic flippant generic statement to support backing a fighter! Might as well throw "motivated BJ Penn" in there as well!
The whole part-time thing was what I was getting at, as far as I'm aware he is still working in the recycling industry or whatever, so I dont quite understand how somebody can know that a fighter will come in "focused" and "ready to fight" when that fighter trains half the time that most others do and clearly isnt 100% focused on fighting! He even admitted after the Corassani fight that he'd barely trained leading up to tht fight!

But like Pun says, maybe this guy is Peralta!
