- Rory a sure lock to beat the crap out of Douglas Lima

- Chandler a no brainer.. Asian fade

- Georgi K is fade material and has been for a while now... Gotta play Henry in this one...

Why is Rory a sure lock to beat Lima?

[JIBBBY]

Why is Rory a sure lock to beat Lima?

Rory better standing. ..Better where ever the fight goes if he shows up.. Rory fought the best in the UFC in the past, looked good and refreshed in his last fight with the Paul Daley beat down.. Lima is tough but not tough enough to beat a UFC vet like Rory...http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Rory-MacDonald-14018

Needless to say the favorites always hit in Bellator..

Hugo I've been hit and miss with the UFC cards and I'll admit that but event after event I've killed it with Bellator going back a full year now. My lucky charm is Bellator..... I'm bold enough to post pending above I'm so confident..

Rampage is living large and will be cardio challenged if the fight continues past the 1st round.. Rampage should connect early though.. Bigger usually means he hits harder also.. Like Rampage early on.. If it goes the distance it's Chaels fight to win though..

[JIBBBY]

It's a damn shame this event is over lapping with the UFC event.. .. I hate when they do that!!!

I'm gonna have to record and watch Bellator after the UFC..

I think Lima is live here. MacDonald looked good against Daley because he outwrestled him (the way you beat Daley). I think this is a lot closer fight than you're seeing it. Only time will tell.

One of the better Bellator cards in recent memory too.

I think Rory is the better striker and maybe even the better grappler and wrestler.. I just think if Rory shows up he will be just a little better in every area.. Probably wins by decision..

Lima is tough though.. http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Douglas-Lima-17236

Yeah my eyes widened when I saw Lima was +200 in this spot. Not sure why people always underestimate Lima. In the past 2.5 years, Rory had years taken off of his life in that epic fight with Robbie, then looked absurdly gunshy throwing nothing but Iminari rolls at Wonderboy and failing all five or so takedowns he tried. A year later he's in Bellator and easily crushes Daley on the ground, which really tells us nothing.

Then you got news that Rory moved back home to British Columbia and is 'splitting time' between training at Tristar and smalltime gym Toshido MMA, you have to wonder where his head it at.

At Rory's absolute best, I think he's at most a -150 favorite. But +200 is crazy with the way the last couple of years have went for him. Then there's the infamous Bellator curse to factor in.

Rampage 253 lbs

looks like bad news for sonnen


rampage doesn't look like a sloppy 250 and sonnen doesn't look a ready 220. Sonnen needs some juice, looking deflated.

[BELM0NT]

Henry Corrales

[BELM0NT]

And if i had to put money on it, my guess would be Sonnen wins

I saw that.. Rampage will gas out though after a round.. If Sonnen can't put Rampage on his back he'll get ko'd and fast... Both do look like they are just showing up for a pay check though.. I think Chael takes a dive.. He doesn't wanna get hurt anymore or get into any long drawn out wars anymore.. Rampage doesn't train and eat like he should but he ain't a quitter...

I'm not so sure sonnen won't gas. He doesn't look ready to control a man with 30lbs on him.

I'll be very disappointed in rampage if he doesn't win, he should wreck sonnen. He just better not give up on the first takedown, sonnen can't control him for a whole fight.

Yep, we have seen Rampage end up on his back, controlled and breathing hard lately.. He's gotta keep the fight standing... He has the weight and size advantage.. All Rampage has to do is hit Chael a couple times and I think he'll drop and ball up looking for a way out..

[JIBBBY]

Rampage is much bigger the Chael... They look like buds just showing up for a pay check at the weigh ins..

[strictlypaypal]

Anybody fading pico? Dont even know the name of his opponent but hes +700 on my site. I love pico though i want him to be as good as the hype

I'm fading Pico small here as well.

[TPowell]

I have 3 units on Rampage at -160 already. If I had less than that, I'd throw more on the ITD prop for sure. I'm not sure gassing is a big deal in this fight to be honest. Both guys are probably just showing up for a check and I could see the last round being a shitshow if it lasts that long. Sonnen by SUB scares me a little but that is it

Let's go Lima!

[TPowell]

Just landed Chandler ML -191 at BetOnline. Pretty happy with that. Put 3 units on it

[BELM0NT]

Henry Corrales

Rob font next

[TPowell]

Easy money on Chandler ML. Should have unloaded more than a few units. I just added another 1.5 units on Jackson ITD. Hopefully he finishes and makes it a huge night for me since UFC has been a little rough so far

Nice chandler hit. Had em in a parlay

[TPowell]

Lima looking live here. Probably needs the finish but Rory is beat up. That leg looks awful and his nose may be broke again
