I like the over 1.5 on this fight. It is not a huge wager, I think Chael is coming to fight, and if he can secure a dominant position and even simply hold down Jones (easier said then done, I know), for even a couple minutes, this bet has a good chance of cashing. If you look at the way Jones fought against Evans and Belfort, his style has become a bit less aggressive, though in the Evans fight I'm wondering if part of that was not due to their past, and with Belfort, there was the arm issue. Still though, I do not think Chael gets finished before 1.5 rds.
As for the fight itself, I'm simply making a very large play on Jones straight up, I want to take it for what it is, a bet with a very very high probability of cashing, and not try to over complicate it.
