I've actually considering the over at -135. As crazy as it seems to bet the over on such a mismatched fight, it's hard for a fighter to switch their style up all of a sudden. Whether it plays out on the feet or the mat, I think Okami gets a dominant decision. Slavov is a bit of a question mark, though. His last fight was in October 2012 and he showed an insufficient gas tank in his fight against Vasilevsky. Unless he's improved a lot I think his only way to win is by submission or knockout (very unlikely).

Yeah I think Okami is like 33 also, I'm not sure if he is going to change that much but if he gets even a little more aggressive it makes the +155 under seem better. Just saw now its down to +110, maybe wait to play the ov 2.5 if you like that it might drop a little more.

What do you guys think of the over/unders in the following fights?

Palhares/Carl (1.5 R)
Burkman/Stinson (2.5 R)
Moraes/Rettinghouse (2.5 R)

The under on Palhares is the closest you're going to get to a sub prop. I took it at -105.

Prelims are on. Gunderson is up next I haven't seen him fight in forever

Boost needs to work on his wrasslin' & changing his name again.

**Skel** · 03-29-14, 06:31 PM

Made a few bets just to make things interesting:

Okami/Savov O2.5 1.12 units to win .8 units
Palhares 2.25 units to win 1 unit
Moraes+Palhares 1 unit to win 0.68 units

What do you guys think of Stinson vs. Burkman?

Guns Gunderson. I'm having IFL flashbacks.

**Ron_Paul_2012** · 03-29-14, 06:36 PM

Fantastic elbows! Any more of those & Gunderson is going to be the one having flashbacks.

Savov has a terrible chin. He's a straight up p-ssy! No Budo what so ever! I can see Okami finishing him via strikes either GnP or on the feet. I have a big unit play on Moraes/Okami. I also have a small play on the Under in the Palhares match. Palhares should tap out Carl in the 1st.

**Ron_Paul_2012** · 03-29-14, 06:44 PM

Well looks like Gunderson's wrasslin' still isn't up to par. How can you have over 50 fights & have MMA wrasslin' like that?!

**Rubber Guard** · 03-29-14, 06:44 PM

So how about a Metamoris link??? Anyone...PM?

**Ron_Paul_2012** · 03-29-14, 06:49 PM

Wow! Impressive RNC defense by Gunderson! But, It would have been even more impressive if he didn't get in that position in the first place.

Agree. I like Palhares to win (sub him) so might as well go for the under.

Right on! I've got Lister fight does not go the distance & R Mendes does not got he distance.

Finished by Okami on the feet?

The lines are shifting upward on Okami, Moraes and Burkman. Lots of people parlaying favorites.

Stayed away from the Burkman fight. Stinson could get the upset.

Haven't looked at the lines but I like both of those to happen. Especially Lister.

**Dwil125** · 03-29-14, 07:27 PM

Wow I thought corey's opponent would have better grappling, really thought he would lose by decision and not get submitted.

Fight vs Babalu declared a DRAW! There goes 2.2 units. How in the world did Lister not submit Babalu?!

Have you seen R Mendes vs Jake Shields? It is jaw dropping! It's on youtube.

Reading the play by play it seems like Sobral even did decent. I thought Lister would have his way. I can't gauge how seriously guys take these things. Sobral may have been preparing/trying his best to show well while Dean was just coasting.

**Ron_Paul_2012** · 03-29-14, 07:50 PM

Vinny Magelhaes pulls out at the last minute because of MRSA. What?! I am absolutely stupefied! Why didn't this dumb dumb just use some silver cream to take care of the MRSA! I am shocked that there are still many hospitals that don't use silver cream for antibiotic resistant bacteria & virus! Unbelievable!

**Rubber Guard** · 03-29-14, 08:00 PM

prolly just scared to get beat by a 22 year old. never cared for Vinny even though he seems like a nice guy.

Kevin Casey is now replacing him.

You can't go to the WSOF website? The entire card is on their website this time.

The official WSOF stream is horrible. Unwatchable for me. I'm watching a clandestine stream instead.

**Dwil125** · 03-29-14, 08:05 PM

I threw nunez in a tiny tardlay.

**Dwil125** · 03-29-14, 08:09 PM

Mazagatti sucks

**Beelzebubzy** · 03-29-14, 08:17 PM

Playing Stimson at 230

With one of the profits I made tailing nunya (1-4wins south)

Thanks nunya
