One of my favourite Placebo songs "Follow the Cops Back Home" is all about Iceland and how there is almost no crime and therefore no police! They often go to Iceland and during one of Molko's drugged/piss up sessions in a bar there came up with the idea of what would happen if you "followed the cops back home and robbed them" - the idea that they'd be the only cops around so there would be no response to the robbery as nobody else to call!

Genius!

^ Good song. i doubt the dude with guyliner is robbing guys like the mountain though.

Well, by "robbing" Molko is probably meaning "arse raping"

Nah, not this time. I think Umalatov is underrated; his fight IQ is very high, and he combines it with an impressively well-rounded game. Napes seems to think he fights like Chris Leben, but he's very skilled, especially considering his lack of athletic gifts.

This will be a great opportunity for him to shine if you are right as Pendred is pretty bad too - having a hard time deciding which one I think is worse and may just put my money elsewhere - Chris Leben just had to snort a pill somewhere after hearing you compared him to Gascan

Yet to be seen Napes.. 8 fight win streak.. Seems to still be improving and getting better with each fight.. Did ok on the TUF show a few years ago.. 1-0 in the UFC to date.. Works and trains with good fighters and camps around the world...

Is he a stud? No he is not. I'd say his star is still on the rise though...

Still wins this next fight one would think...

I like the drop to Welterweight for Pendred but is he really that bad on his feet? Seems like King picked him apart pretty easy in his last fight. I don't think he will get dropped in this fight by such a limited striker, but still.

his standup is as stiff as Md's rooster when McGregor is fighting

only good news is that Umalatov isn't known for his striking...... or anything else. I think the fact that he didn't convincingly beat Thiago in his last fight is a very bad sign. Sure, he won 2 rounds but they weren't blowouts by any stretch and Thiago put together a good Round 3. I think Pendred will have a HUGE edge in a potential Round 3, which seems a given

PaperTrail07 · 10-02-14, 10:37 AM

Yeah he had a KILLER first round and I honestly think it was a body kick that slowed him down...I expect Musoke to go to the ground here as well.....he is very good on the ground KG is very very good as well....1 more takedown round 2 or 3 musoke would have gotten the W....

That was a strange fight. Musoke was able to take Kelvin down in the first but had no success after that. Kelvin demolished him in rounds 2 and 3.

That's beautiful. It's been firmly established that JIBBBY doesn't watch fights, though.

MD · 10-02-14, 10:44 AM

Also, Pendred/Umalatov Not Fight of the Night at any odds is the play of the card. This is going to be the ugliest fight in recorded history.

I haven't watched the live fights on the TUF show for years.. I do watch the taped vids on the TUF fights leading up to the fight card events though ya bone head.. Even post them on this thread.. Keep trying MD and Aplinepetey... Jibs don't lie....

I watch every fight, just can't remember them the day after.. LOL..

TPowell · 10-02-14, 11:43 AM

anybody else think Bandel and Chavez have potential? I think Bandel dropping down could be huge. I also think Askham should be favored in the Cedenblad fight

Cedenblad should have big grappling advantage

Griffin/Bonnar wasn't a pretty fight. Pendred gets another spectacular comeback and the bet is f*cked.

Classic old-school brawl! An absolute clinic in non-existent head-movement and footwork!

Bandel via sub in the first (Itd @ +335). Chavez via decision @ +500. Cedenblad @ -140. I believe you can still get Chavez via decision @ +320.

Indeed. He's basing that on fact that Story is an old-school brawler and tends to wade in with predictable "bombs" so I guess he's thinking Gunni will counter him as Story wades in and take his head "cleeeeeeeaaan aahhhfff"

I wish people would stop betting based on nationalism. It's just silly.

Strongly disagree. It feeds my cats.

Anybody else have almost nothing on this card?

I wouldn't even wake up for it if I didn't have football to bet on in the morning.

Gunni, Holloway, Latifi, Siver in various parlays with the other card.

Straight plays on Gunni/Story over 2.5, Holloway KO/TKO, Wilkinson/Backstrom under 1.5

Small plays on Yakovlev and Jotko

Chavez didn't bring his belly with him today though. He looks 5 years younger without the fatface.
