I like Young and definately see the argument, but I can't help but think that if Poirier can get takedowns then Omigawa can do that as well. I'm liking the square play here.

    The only dog (as far as my expectations) that I'm liking is Paul Taylor. He's seemingly much harder to finish than Njokuani and will hopefully avoid a technical battle.

    Both plays will be dependant upon the lines, of course, and relatively small.
    Yeah but if Etim does get a KO he is potentially going to be competing with a few other KO's for KO of the Night. All of the main card fights have potential to have a KO finish - especially with Leben, Alves, and Njokuani and then Diabate on undercard.

    Good point.

    I don't see Njokuani getting a KO though. Paul Taylor is very hard to finish.

    Diabate and Alves are legit possibilities though.

    yeah Taylor has great endurance, wont be easy for Njokuani to finish, but I still have tht beating tht he delivered to Winner in my mind - was amazing tht Dre suvived that, Taylor is tougher than Winner but the weight-cut is very tough for him and reason why he's pulled out of fights twice.

    I don't mean this in disrespectful way but your post (And Vaughany's reply) probably moved the line.

    I'll bet $500 that the MMA bookies read this forum to get "the pulse" on where the sharps think the fighters are at. We discussed this before UFC 137. The reality is... SBR forum is a fairly sharp place for handicappers. And there's a few guys here with proven records and the bookies will factor their opinions.

    If I was making lines for the books -- this is one of the 1st places I would check to adjust my line before I release it.

    I'm personally going to shut up BEFORE the lines come out. I'll share a few thoughts after.

    Again -- feel free to post whatever you want. This is all just a suggestion.

    Ugly lines..maybe Alves and Njokuani parlay.

    Don't know anything about Papy Abedi though.

    And I must admit, I haven't seen any Brad Pickett or Barao fights.

    Guess I'll have to do some research

    Im not necessarily on Picket, I'm about 50/50 on this one, so I'd play Pickett at current odds if I had to. I'll probably jus play fight to go the distance.

    Damnit.

    Wolfslair fighter Leeroy Barnes just tweeted this: "Signed, sealed and Delivered..... :-D watch this space.... " Maybe he's been added but he's at 170?

    He got whiplash from a car accident to be fair! Not his usual issues with weight-cutting

    Insane odds -- the odd makers have gone the other direction (leaning way too heavy on favorites). Diabate -500? Etim -600? Omigawa -450?

    Total craziness. Zero value there. Nothing but waiting for the lines to move.

    Even Mills at -210?

    Why don't you open one then? Love both of those lines as well. Like Perosh at +350 too.

    I actually think Pickett takes this fight closer to 55% of the time. Love getting him as a dog here.

    Maguire and Cope are playable as well imo.

    If u sign up to Bodog in UK u have to join the .co.uk one or something - doesnt bring out the lines that the main Bodog does until day or 2 after so is pointless for me

First 12345 ... Last
