    it is tough. travis view is the rightful favorite, dude is going to have massive size advantage. but vegh will be the faster of the two with crisper striking. clearly the fight hinges on whether view will get the takedown. at +205 im going to make a small play on vegh. if he can stuff a few takedowns he should be able to hurt view in the stand up. maybe get a rear naked or tko stoppage.

    Nogueria has been more impressive than Galvo.

    Yeah, Wiuff never really displayed a great chin or striking power. For a huge dude he doesn't really punch well. Vegh could tag him...hmm

    at -165 though Wiuff aint a bad deal. I'll prolly grab him for 2U or something. Missed my chance at +200 for Vegh.

    I'd play Nogueira over Galvao, Nogueira looked awesome in his last fight.

    Wiuff will win unless he ends up getting tagged and KTFO. I was at Bellator 72 and it was ridiculous on how big Wiuff was in person. To compare both Wiuff and Vegh, Wiuff looked like he was a good sized heavyweight, and Vegh was a soft and sort of chubby 205er who could easily make 185. I see Wiuff getting Vegh to the ground and just holding him there like he did to Carpenter

    I think Galvao as a dog is worth a play. I actually think he should be slightly favored. Nogueira has surprised me this tournament but Galvao has been very competitive in every Bellator fight he's competed in since his fight with Warren. For me, getting him at plus odds in whatwill most likely be a very close fight (split decision?) is +EV.

    If the Galvao/Noguiera fight goes to a decision (likely), Nog is taking it. He is much quicker on his feet and his cardio has looked better. -135 is very fair.

    This fight and line kind of reminds me of Bendo/Edgar II. Bendo and Noguiera have both looked great of late and Edgar/Galvao always keep fights ultra competitive and are very consistent. Maybe not the greatest comparison.

    Naw, I don't get how he weighs any less than 240-250 though. He is solid, minimal bodyfat, tall, and ******* huge in real life.

    If he can drop 75lbs to make 205, he should just go all the way for 145 and fight Pitbull

    Glad I got him early... I just don't think Galvao is going to be fast enough for him.

    Already locked in a play on Attila Vegh, might add more after the weigh-ins.

    still considering a smaller parlay on Ryan/Nogueira as well.

    If Van Buren keeps dropping I may bite. I'd jump on -120 possibly.

    yeah me too. Van Buren has been at Alliance since July training with all those beasts there...Stephens, Cruz, Chandler, Davis, Pearson, Warburton, De Fries, Beltran, etc... Apparently from what he says and from tweets I've read he's a step above most guys in striking department.
