Gonna take a crack at this card..

Mike Ricci interview...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YSiDlIt-6CY#t=546


(Copy paste) Just throwing up some short write ups and predictions..

Mike Ricci vs. George Sotiropoulos: The struggles of Sotiropoulos are really too bad. He was shockingly close to staking a claim at number one contender before Dennis Siver seemingly destroyed his chin. While I believe Mike Ricci is very overrated, he is far better than what George Sotiropoulos has become, who honestly should probably retire = Ricci via 3rd round TKO.

Bristol Marunde vs. Micah Miller: Moving up to welterweight from featherweight seems like a strange move on Miller’s part. I understand that he has put a lot of muscle on, but Marunde will be so much naturally larger than him, his strength and controlling clinch game should carry him to a victory = Marunde via unanimous decision.

Kurt Holobaugh vs. Lloyd Woodard: At one point Woodard was an exciting prospect in Bellator’s lightweight division, mainly due to his amazing submission victory over Patricio Freire. But after Rick Hawn knocked him out, he lost another two fights before finishing Jerome Jones to snap a three fight losing streak. However, I don’t expect him to make it two in a row. Holobaugh is a tough as nails scrappy kid who is a tough out for anyone. I expect him to overpower Woodard, who will likely have a tough first cut down to 145 = Holobaugh via unanimous decision.

Mike Bronzoulis vs. Keith Johnson = Johnson via 2nd round submission.
Brian Davidson vs. Kevin Smith = Smith via 2nd round submission.

Name one post I have ever posted that has not been of value.

[Jim_Gunn]

I don't usually bet such big favorites, but based on Ricci's last performance, his improvements and on George's age and four fight losing streak, I have a couple of straight bets on Ricci totaling $252.50 to win $100.00.

[JIBBBY]

I'm going with all the favorites in the main event and Keith Johnson also at -110.. Was thinking Woodard might have a shot as a dog play coming down in weight but I just couldn't pull the trigger when considering all his recent losses....

Quick capped this event, went mostly off article reads, interviews and sherdog links.. Kinda rolling the dice and just betting small with this card.. Did not watch recent fight vids.. Trail at own risk...

[Bumdeal]

I can't find any information on Kevin Smith

Parlay them for less risk.

That's a better post Sac..

I did already... 2 - 2 teamers.. 100 bucks each..

I got lazy with this card.. The only fighters I really know well is Georgie Sot and Mike Ricci.. I also remember M. Miller...

I'm with Bumdeal on that straight bet play with Mike Ricci but not at all happy about the - odds..... I also think George is washed up..

I should have watched each fighters last fights.. Oh well.. Lady luck I need ya tonight..

Post fail for me...

He's just having fun Jibster. He never writes breakdowns. I do not believe that he has a winning betting record. But that doesn't make him a bad person. And I hear that he is a pretty good chef.

Not really seeing any value in Ricci or Holobaugh. Woodard is definitely a bad match-up for Holobaugh in my opinion and should probably be more like -120 through -150, Holobaugh doesn't have the power to keep Woodard at bay and doesn't have the cardio advantage either. Ricci barely beat Colin Fletcher and isn't the same caliber of fighter as the guys who beat G-sot. He could definitely win the decision but he's no way deserving of -275 in my eyes.

EDIT: I got 1.25U on Lloyd Woodard at +160 and 0.5U on G-sot at +245

This makes me feel a little better about my Gspot bet. The unanimous support of Ricci on this forum and on other sites was beginning to scare me.

[JIBBBY]

Markwoodstick - If GSot fights anything like he did 4 or 5 years ago he wins this fight hands down. The dude has lost 4 straight fights but to VERY stiff competition.. I still don't see him turning it around against a focused Mike Ricci at age 36..

Those odds should be closer to like -175 I think and not -275 for Ricci. You got good value with GSot anyways I believe..

http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/George-Sotiropoulos-11702

Crassus - Not a bad play with Woodard either at +160... If a dog wins on the main card it's probably gonna be this guy as far as I could tell..

I still played both the favorites.. I had to play who I think will win the fights..

[PaperTrail07]

Marunde is not a great line but I pulled the trigger...should prb be more of a -140 ish but
CHEERS

Interesting. So why do you believe that people are going to be pounding the Bisping line?

[firekillex]

Interesting. So why do you believe that people are going to be pounding the Bisping line?

put it plain and simple, bisping is a way better fighter then cung le
8/10 times i see bisping winning, cung le does have that punchers chance and the home crowd rooting for him, but in a 5 round fight bispings cardio and constant pressure will be way to much for the 40+ year old cung le to handle, i wouldnt take bisping straight up at -300, but id put him at the end of a few parlays

sit back and watch the $ flow brotha

[JIBBBY]

Stephen Bonnar behind the Mic.. LOL... On now and rolling!!!!
