Robert Whittaker to fight Derek Brunson on the upcoming card in Australia. I like Brunson here but think he may open as the dog.

Wicked fight i was actually thinking about this matchup the other day.. Thought they would want to give Brunson victor/mousasi winner though and build up Whittaker . This is a super tough fight imo, Whittaker has the striking advantage to me he puts his combos together super crisp , Brunson will have the size and power / wrestling advantage but Whittaker is no slouch with his TDD , need to see where the line will be I'm thinking Brunson around -130/150 range after his last few statement wins if Whittaker gets to a juicy enough number and at home I may take a shot I really like his progression he's a new younger version of Michael bisping imo, but Brunson is super super dangerous with that power and explosiveness this will be a treat to watch

im liking the Frankie Edgar/ Jeremy Stephens announcement to super super tough fight for Frankie , Stephens is a huge ass 145er with hands like cement blocks Frankie better stick and move or its gonna be lights out

2 year layoff? Maybe thats why the line is -220 and not -385?

Agree----but VS a guy that could announce retirement at ANY minute....

Kennedy: Evans In For A Surprise In NYC

http://www.mmamania.com/2016/9/27/13065126/ufc-205-surprised-tim-kennedy-rashad-evans-training-partners-middleweight-mma

UFC 205: Tim Kennedy reveals it was Rashad Evans who requested to fight him in New York, something he admits surprised him. But if his old training partner is judging him by what happened during training, he's in for a rude awakening.

I think Lamas wins but don't think there's much value here.

Derrick Lewis looks like a decent play. I've also got Kennedy (-220) and Nurmagomedov when the line hit (-170).

Playing Dos Anjos against Ferguson. If he shows up anything like he did against Vanaata, he will get destroyed. That said, Fergie is a live dog, especially if he goes hard for the early finish.

Probably playing McGregor here but I'm going to wait till all the props are released for that one.

Can't bet against Cowboy right now. He's been running through everyone lately. Yoel could definitely win here. Maybe the KO prop will have good value too.

**Hugo de Naranja** · 09-29-16, 04:29 PM

Jacare Souza has flipped to the underdog (+105) against Rockhold.

**PaperTrail07** · 09-30-16, 10:32 AM

Never much value -525...but i see it as a no lose situation...

Yeah-he will take this one serious..very nice -170...MJ will get tossed in circles...

Strange LM. I fired a few parlays with Lamas in them at (-350).

**PaperTrail07** · 09-30-16, 01:06 PM

Must IMO....right?

**Ethan2Jones** · 10-02-16, 02:54 AM

Condit is the only option to knock him out.

Anyone have thoughts on the St. Preux/Manuwa fight next week?

Hedged my Dos Anjos stake with Ferguson Sub (+675) as well as the early round props.

**Hugo de Naranja** · 10-03-16, 08:42 PM

Full 20 props dropping for most of the fights on the board

**PaperTrail07** · 10-04-16, 02:06 PM

Dos Anjos will be tough to Sub but I think this is Fergie's best path to victory.

**PaperTrail07** · 10-05-16, 10:09 AM

Agree---but he really locks up subs after landing shots...kinda his style ---good line..

Any thoughts on some of the big fights coming up Paper?

**UncleChael** · 10-05-16, 02:57 PM

I love Ferguson, exciting fighter to watch, one of my favors was the Barboza. All his fights really doesn't matter they're all good. Hugo they're fighting at +6000 elevation and I hope this goes into the later rounds as I think this will favor Ferguson. El CuCuy all day.

My early play on this fight was Dos Anjos for line movement reasons but I might reconsider. Ferguson is a damn good fighter and this has FOTY potential.

**PaperTrail07** · 10-05-16, 03:11 PM

I like Alvarez....I think **'G is more skilled overall but the heart and determination of EA is really what I am betting on....not really an on paper stat but I like it....I also like how he has shown the ability to eat a shot and keep his head on straight...

I know I'm against the grain here as well but I like KG over Cowboy.....will I make the bet...maybe, maybe not....but I feel KG will walk forward and win it by mixing up his wrestling.....

Also love love love khabib over MJ......cant wait to see him back and rolling people again....went to tampa just to see TF and him fight and it didn't happen....

Also Tim Kennedy by way of Rashad just being done w the sport lol...

They just released the basic props for Khabib/MJ. I think Khabib Decision holds decent value at (+145) but will also look for the sub line or -3.5 line when they come out. Probably won't be huge on Khabib since MJ is 5-1 as a dog and I got burned betting Poirier against him.

**PaperTrail07** · 10-06-16, 10:09 AM

Agree but Khabib is on another level--HE WILL LAND THAT TAKEDOWN AND TOSS HIM AROUND LIKE A RAGDOLL LOL...
