    Neither guy is dangerous with their hands. They are both great kickers...
    Neither guy likes to be pressured and neither will pressure each other. they both like distance to work.
    This will be a kick boxing match and the better striker will win.
    Since Pettis is a southpaw the kick to the body will be open for both guys.
    I like Barboza in this one!
    Pettis did not look the same in his last fight. He didn't circle well from Alvarez and Eddie is not as sharp as he used to be. He's past his prime.
    Yep my thoughts exactly Capt... Edson on points..

      I think if DC is to win this fight it's gonna be by KO.. I can't see DC out pointing JJ over 5 rounds and winning by decision.. Especially after the way their first fight went down..

      1037 Cormier wins by TKO/KO <input id="radiox" value="M1_138" name="radiox" type="radio">+1055
      JJ seems more focused and more determined then ever in this comeback of his. How can you bet against that especially when JJ dominated DC in that first fight over 5 rounds? I don't see how DC could have improved in any one area since the first fight to beat JJ now. I think DC actually might get finished in this fight.. JJ seems determined to make a statement...

      1009 Jones wins inside distance <input id="radiox" value="M1_124" name="radiox" type="radio">+167


      I'm thinking this prop probably has the best chance of landing though..

      1047 Jones wins by 5 rd unanimous decision <input id="radiox" value="M1_143" name="radiox" type="radio">+185

              I use to drag race all the time in years past.. I give JJ a free pass on that.. If ya have a fast car you're gonna punch it when challenged at a red light if there is no traffic around and you see no cops..

              I've raced other cars 100's of times on the streets, not proud of that and I'm lucky I didn't crash or die or kill someone else.. Never got busted either which is a miracle in itself.. I always loved pulling away from other faster looking cars though, the looks on the other drivers faces were priceless when I pulled on them. I seldomly ever lost a street race in a straight line with my nitrious run supe'd up Lexus SC400 sleeper.. It was a bullet 0-80mph.. I'm still a legend on 2 other car forums from my racing days...

              That was an expensive hobby though but fun as hell as I liked the rush....

                Anyone else thinking that Jon might gas out similar to Conor with the added weight?

                      This will be a main event fight in which I take you out Josh... I got this one in the bag, done deal...

                      No way DC wins this fight.. JJ is back in training and focused... This traffic thing will keep him in the gym and at home now which is a good thing... He beat DC once and he will beat him again.. He wins this fight and all this bad stuff goes away, he the man again in other words..

                      JJ is still the best pound for pound fighter in the UFC, he never lost his belt... Guy has never been knocked out, he's never been rocked, he's never been our wrestled or out grappled, he's never lost a fight and really is undefeated (DQ loss doesn't count) and lastly he's never been out struck or out classed standing....

                      How in the hell can you bet against that? JJ gonna wear the belt again, DC back to the drawing board and goes back up to HW after this..

                      Too much bad blood and this one doesn't go the distance this time either...

                      $127.60 $165.90 Pending 4/23/16 11:59pm UFC Fighting 1001 Daniel Cormier/Jon Jones Under 4½ +130*
                      Considering this prop too..

                        Yeah but a few days in jail and the stress of that plus a curfew etc :/ is going to affect how Jon fights. He's human so naturally it would. Plus joe rogan said that arlovski I think it was, said Jon is never in the gym these days. That was back before his Cormier fight got announced but he was probably not too focused on training after being fired kwim? While DC has been the whole time. At this level of competition every single thing you have over your opponent can see you winning.

                            Joe Rogan also mentioned that Arlovski didn't clarify in what context he was referring to... Was it 6 months ago, 3 months, 1 yr ago?

                                  I'm the prop king dude and you know this!!! You have no power over me in that department.. I will destroy this event with +odd prop hits fight after fight like I normallly do once I get going... It's like magic everytime!!

                                  I have noticed you are playing the props more lately, smart man.. You are learning Josh but you are not a Jedi Prop Master yet... I strongly suggest you tail my prop plays when I start posting live during the event.. Easy way to get paid....

                                      Other places are reporting it now. looks like a Mighty Mouse Main Event.

                                          WOW... We shouldn't be surprised.. Another big fight pull out. Wonder how the UFC is going to fill that void now??

                                          Yep just checked and my bets have been refunded on a couple of books already.. Not 5Dimes yet though...The fight is cancelled for sure though if some books are refunding.... Unbelievable.. Well we weren't certain JJ was gonna get out of the Pen at one time either in this fight... This fight was cursed from the beginning..

                                          DC just saved his MMA career by not fighting JJ now IMO.. He would have got his ass beat again for sure..

                                              @Josh I got a lot of respect towards you with these fight picks but come on Daniel Cormier didn't want none. Jon Jones would have took care of business without a doubt. At -350 I can see why you're on the other side however but DC wouldn'thave came through.

                                                  that was the best possible time to fight jones, jones lucked out bud, jones should have been trying to get a tune up fight before fighting the 2nd best lightweight in the world, whom he has already barly beat and barly out struck to a dec against while jones was coked up and couldnt feel those uppercuts, to think cormier didnt want to fight a bulked up jones, fresh out of jail and off a long layoff is ludacris, offcourse he wanted jones. hopefully for him he'll take a tune-up fight while cormier heals up. Cormier will never again get this golden opportunity again, there's not a better spot to beat jones or anyone then this one, and i dont get why people act as if jones blew him out the first fight. Jones lucked out, and the people laying -350 on jones in all their parlays lucked out, count your lucky stars this fight didnt happen, trust me bro, this is a win for you. If you don't understand spots and situations, then you can't be a profitable gambler, you must know these things...remember werdum +400 against cain, yea i bet werdum 2 months in advance..golden spots like this don't come around often, and i'm pissed this fight is canceled, this ticket was already cashed.

                                                    Anytime your betting against JoshKnows and the fight gets canceled, you should thank the man up stairs, because that's a blessing.

                                                      He didn't get outclassed by Cormier, people who think it was a clear cut win for jones I don't know about that. Lot this time. I'm honestly sick of watching Jon jones pole people in the eyes! He extends his fingers and people back off afraid of the eye poke :/ even joe rogan has said that. As far as I'm concerned with the rate with which he does it, it's cheating.

                                                              Jones vs Johnson. Sounds good.

                                                                        What happened to Thrilla?

                                                                        JoshKnows was catching heat from other members and the mods at the time he bailed.. He posted some absurd stuff.. Then he said he was going tout and posted his tweeter and said he was leaving the forum. That was the last we heard from Joshknows unless you were a sucker and paid $50 and signed up for his picks every month....

                                                                        Thrilla got caught with his hand in the cookie jar trying to swindle an SBR freebie like a pizza or something in the Players Lounge.... He edited his original post on a prediction score thread to win points and a pizza if I remember correctly.. The game ended and he edited his posted and put in the final actual score then claimed to win the free pizza and points.. Mod called him out on it immediately, Thrilla claimed it was a joke.. Forum roasted him anyways for that and he disappeared..

                                                                        That's the story with those 2 guys.. Tragic.... ... Both were amusing though at times..
