    Johnson-Benavidez - Fight won't go 5 round distance +200

    Demetrious Johnson vs Joseph Benavidez - 5 rounds - UFC 152 propositions
    Sat 9/22 1103 Johnson/Benavidez goes 5 round distance -280
    10:30PM 1104 Fight won't go 5 round distance +200

    I think if Benavidez can secure top position he has a very good chance of finishing Johnson.

    Benavidez inside distance will be even better value. What do you guys think?

    Benavidez inside rather than fight not distance

    Benavidez ITD was sitting at +282 on 5Dimes. I took 50 bucks but now they no longer offer them.

    I honestly think you would be better off just betting on Benavidez staight up at -280. It's the same odds as the fight going to distance, and I think it's a better play. At + 200 for ITD, I see value in it, but both dudes are extremely tuff, and neither one has ever been finished in the octagon. I am on Benavidez at anything -300 and below, but that's just me.. GL

    I'm hesitant to risk Benavidez at those odds because of the chance of it going to decision and Johnson taking it. Moreover, I don't trust the judges whatsoever at this weight class.

    I'll probably end up waiting for more props on 5dimes.

    This fight went from being a 5 rounder to being a 3 rounder... Preferred it as a 5 rounder.

    Benavidez ITD. McCall was able to mount Johnson late in their first fight. I think Benavidez has a great chance of finishing this fight in the championship rounds.

    I think the fight goes the distance quite often here. I agree that taking Benavidez inside the distance is much better since it is very unlikely Johnson will finish.
