Hit Lawrence at -205 and have -250 in a few parlays.

[Hannibal]

marcello is gonna get laid out
his stand up consists of a useless flicking jab and a oddly thrown hooks from both sides while his head remains on center line....unless he's just winging a huge right hook where he'll lean to the left a bit. He also throws straight right which i think is his best standing weapon...but it aint much and it aint pretty. His standing defense sucks as well. He is slow and can barely see the shots coming. He either ducks his head or shells
He is gonna get lit up and his serviceable wrestling wont be enough.

[Dax]

Hey fellas, I have lines on this match too just incase you want to throw some points on it

[Hannibal]

wow....easy money
that kid is a monster. bit premature...but i think he is the only man that could challenge aldo at 145 in the striking realm. dont know if he'll go back to 45 though

[Vaughany]

Worth watching just for Lil Heathen's comedy at the end!..

LOL. Dom is outclassing him on the show through three episodes. Could be a long 13 weeks for Urijah.

half a male is the douchiest camp out there since the lions den

Cruz is doing everything he can to annoy Faber. Now Faber's #1 pick has been picked to fight. If Faber loses here he will be down his top 3 picks. I can't wait for this weeks episode. Lot of good talent here and Cruz isn't giving his top guys easy fights. He is really looking to sweep Faber here and probably has all the matches picked now. Every fight this season will probably end up being a good match up and no one will have an easy fight from even the first fights in the house.

It's a different strategy from any coach in the past, but it has the potential to pay off huge. This way even Cruz' lower picks will have a good shot when it comes time to fight. If Faber gets control back he will still only have his guys rank 4-8 to work with.

[Wanna Bet On It?]

WOW. Iaquinta shot up to +355 on Pinny.

Had to hit that up for 0.6U.

[Wanna Bet On It?]

Major momentum swing back to Team Faber. Chiesa is not a guy you want to be fighting right now.

This season just got a lot more heated

[BIGDAY]

Did anyone see that Spladdle that Alquinta pulled in the first rd?? SICK wrestling move that sticks people who shoot too deep on a single leg.

That was sweet

Yeah, I'm gonna have to check that out again tomorrow. I'm no wrasslin' expert so I want to breakdown how Iaquinta made such a smooth transition. Kid is a stud.

I'm sure you're proud to have bet on Al when he displays those kind of wrestling chops.

For y'all consideration...

'TUF: Live' cast member Jeremy Larsen medically suspended, status TBD

by Steven Marrocco on Mar 13, 2012 at 5:45 pm ET

At first glance, Jeremy Larsen appears he might be the first injury dropout from "The Ultimate Fighter: Live."

The Nevada State Athletic Commission medically suspended the fighter after he sustained a laceration to his scalp during a win at Friday's opening round of the reality show's 32-main tournament.

Larsen is now forced to sidelines until April 9 with no contact allowed during training until March 31. Meanwhile, the reality show goes on.

However, Larsen can be cleared by NSAC doctors after March 16, which could allow him to compete in the next round of the lightweights-only season of the show.

Larsen (8-2 MMA, 0-0 UFC) was cut during a fight with Jeff Smith (9-1 MMA, 0-0 UFC) during the March 9 live debut on FX. Larsen won his one-round fight via unanimous decision to earn official cast-member status. (The fights are considered exhibition bouts by the NSAC and do not count on a fighter's professional record.)

In the show's previous incarnation, tournaments played out over the show's six-week shoot. Contestants spent between two and three months at home before appearing on the show's finale. Now shot live, the show's filming time has more than doubled, and fighters stay on set. That, of course, allows more time for competitors to heal between fights in the sometimes-grueling tournament.

But even UFC president Dana White has taken note of the mental strain that's expected as contestants are cooped up longer, shuttling between the fighter house and the UFC Training Center. From a health standpoint, however, NSAC Executive Director Keith Kizer said that the format allows the commission to do its job better.

"Our doctors are able to have an ongoing examination history or relationship with these fighters," he today told MMAjunkie.com(www.mmajunkie.com). "Not only that, we know these fighters aren't going back home and getting in gym wars. So here, it's a lot more controlled, and they're seen a lot more often.

"[Larsen] may not fight again until [April 9], but our doctors will check up on him in the next six Fridays between now and then and see how he's doing. That's the difference."

Several fighters have been forced to withdraw from previous seasons of the reality show as a result of the NSAC-issued medical suspensions.

"The UFC is well-aware that if a guy gets hurt – a guy [advances] but he gets hurt and he can't get cleared within that week – you're going to have to find somebody else," Kizer said. "But that was always the case."

For now, though, it appears Larsen will escape that fate, assuming he can avoid one of the earlier fights in the next round of the tournament.

"He can't fight this week," Kizer said. "We're hoping he won't fight until April, but if they need him before then, our doctor will have to take a look at his scalp and see if it's been healing. It will definitely be OK by the 9th of April. If it heals quickly, we can let him fight earlier. If not, they'll have to have him in the last [fight of the next round]."

Whether the remaining contestants keep their spots is up in the air. White said today via Twitter that "something bad has already happened" on the reality show, though he didn't elaborate.

[Vitooch]

Chiesa was one of the most impressive fighters of the fights to get into the house. Super slick jits. Reminded me of Jon-a-tan Brukeens

[Kaladarus]

Interesting article Vaughany. I'm fairly sure the line for this one will be hard to bet on though.

[Vaughany]

Living it large with Ogle!...

[Vitooch]

Chiesa opens at -515, Larsen +315...Prob not touching this line

[Vaughany]

Wow...didnt expect it to be tht steep.

[BIGDAY]

That sucks.

[BIGDAY]

I like wrestlers, but not that much. Lol

[BIGDAY]

Anyone have a wager on tonight's fight??

[v1y]

larsen looks solid in defeat. chiesa edged it with takedowns and a bit of gnp, but not by a lot.

[gabe]

i skipped the juice on chiesa.

[Mikail]

I don't know about you all but I agree with Larson that there should have been a 3rd round.

[Kaladarus]

It's hard to have a third with a point deduction unless Chisea gets a 10-8. If Larson won either round he would win the fight and if Chisea wins both rounds he wins. With a point deduction it's very unlikely there is a third round.

[sideloaded]

I thought Larson hurt him in the 2nd round. Don't really see how Chisea won that. Thoese takedowns did nothing.

This sounds as logical as your boycott Israeli goods avatar.

Thoughts?

Tickle has lost 4 times, each time by sub. He typically wins by T/KO.
Proctor has lost once, by KO. He typically wins by sub.

LOL... I know Tickle is getting faded by the books/public for his immaturity and for Proctor getting the match-up he asked for but it seems like both have clear paths to victory.

Besides Iaquinta (spellign) have all the favorites won?

[NunyaBidness]

Besides Iaquinta (spellign) have all the favorites won?

Yes and no. Vick beat Cruikshank in the first fight. There was no line, but Cruikshank would've been the favorite 100%.

[Wanna Bet On It?]

Basically two big 'dogs have won and two moderate-to-large favourites have won.

[Vaughany]

ye Cruickshank would of been similar line to this fight

[Kaladarus]

I thought proctor would be around -200 here at for the opener. I think Tickle has a good shot here and a +265 going to make a small play for sure.
