    Looks like Erik Koch just saved Hoff and Prop Joe a nice chunk of change by getting hurt.

    Finally they are giving Brown a favorable matchup

    Thought Brown vs Hardy made more sense but I will always enjoy betting against Cope

    I went big on Matt Brown over John Howard then even bigger against him on Seth Baczynski.

    Cope is a good fade, but he does have some really nice strikes and combos. Matt Brown is no Che Mills, he isn't gonna knock Cope out, but he will try to keep it on the ground. I like both these guys. I wouldn't mind making a play on Cope at +305. He wasn't that big a dog against Mills, though, so I doubt he would be one here.

    Ricardo Lamas injured, too... Who should replace him against Poirier?

    I say, winner of Manny vs Diego, or winner of Pearson vs Assuncao

    or Diego Brandao =)

    I think the line is wrong. Diaz will smash condit. It should look like cerrone vs nate.

    No. Diaz/Condit will actually be more competitive. Condit won't come in looking lethargic and will most likely have plan B in case Nick is picking him apart with his boxing. Cerrone did not bother going for a takedown (thanks Greg Jackson?) or jumping into Nate's guard even though he was getting schooled. I think Condit will have a more relentless approach. My $ is on Diaz at -150.... but I won't be shocked at all to see him lose. Hopefully Condit doesn't open up any cuts leading to an early stoppage.

    Condit is much like cerrone. Similar build, style, and toughness. Both have a kicking game that is very solid for mma, but won't be able to over come diaz's boxing. I also doubt condit will come to grapple. He's outmatched there as well and he definitely won't be able to wrestle to a decision.

    I'm with Diaz here. I believe Condit will be outmatched unless he lands a KO blow which is unlikely.

    I like Condit in a great fight at +145. It might go a little higher before Feb. 4th? With Diaz's cardio...I'll prob just try Condit for the stoppage. Diaz always has the reach advantage and peppers them with his boxing but Condit is just as tall and hits harder. BJ Penn looked like $hit with a soft gut & love handles and he had Diaz bleeding pretty good before he gassed as usual. Diaz always takes punishment to give out more as well so it should be a great fight.

    I think Condit might reach +160 by fight night

    Im on Diaz at -130 or -150 but I planning on arbing out with Condit by TKO or KO of the night
    Diaz has been caught before by left hooks and eventually that Stockton chin is going to give


    For the record - I have bet against condit for the Rory Mac, Kim, and Hardy fights. I am 0-3 against Condit

    Damn, Figueroa looked horrible in tht first round! To say he's a striker he wasnt very technical at all...everything looked sloppy - wild hooks and aimless kicks, and his defence was terrible. Really slow and woeful super-man punch attemt at 1min 55 left in first round. Dude's got a good chin tho!

    I think Figueroa is the new Leonard Garcia in every sense. Including his impressive showing with macdonald... just like when garcia made his name on the huerta bout.

    BeezleBubby, When has diaz been caught by a left hook? What do you mean by caught? Diaz has only been truly stopped once and that was his 5th fight and he was like 18 and didnt have any hands at that time. Since then he has never been stopped except for a bs cut in the kj noons first fight. He has never been submitted either. He has 33 pro fights and to only be stopped once is pretty remarkable. Also the fights he did lose were all razor close including some split dec's and could have gone either way, except for the diego sanchez fight. Diego clearly won. But thats when diego was a straight wrecking machine. Especially in a 5 round fight. If there were no time limits and it was a true real fight neither diaz fighter would ever lose. They dont get tired and the fights they lost were all razor close for the most part or the other guy didnt do much except hold em down. In the sport of mma theyre still pretty damn good and both in top ten in the world. Thats crazy if you think about it. But like i said if it was a real fight with no time limits both brothers would be champions. They are the best real true fighters in theyre weight classes.
