    so how much money did you have on Mike Pierce?

    and yeah dude I also agree with the oddsmakers and believe Dodson should be the favorite but you should watch tape on the opponent, and with fights like these (going to decision) you always have to be weary of the judges call. Not saying they are going to mess it up but I personally would never go big on fights like these.

    Paddy Power seem to have the odds up for the England Card. Nothing really jumps out so far..
    The point of a "unit" is that it means nothing. There is no standard measure of what a unit is in a gambling context.

    So 3.5% of your roll is nothing?

    It's not a horrible betting strategy at all, its just horrible capping.

    The higher your perceived edge, the larger your bet should be. I frequently have fight cards where something like 70% of my money is on one fight or prop, and will again on this card.

    You don't think its okay to lose? You gotta embrace losing if you're going to make it in this game. If you didn't lose sometimes, nobody would play with you.

    You're obviously not doing a good job of finding those 90% MeDges, then. Step your game up son.

    Yes she's faced some pretty high level fighters. I doubt more than two people could beat leslie smith that are in the ufc. Certainly better than Zoila Fraudsto and Carina Damm.

    Kalikas brother is Eye's manager, I have no idea if that altered the line.

    Wished I was funded at Sportsbook for the -185, but the current line at Dimes seems like a steal, will likely be my largest play of the entire night.

    Agree, Kaufman is really really good. Just has a weakness to the armbar and judo/guard game. Something Eye doesn't possess.

    Probably Aldo. Considering that his game pretty much revolves around forcing guys to shoot on him so he can punish them, he'd have to be pretty high on the list.

    Jordan has some of the best cardio in MMA history and pretty decent TDD. Even if Gonzaga wins round one, if he doesn't get the finish, he's in a lot of trouble.

    Jordan's main weakness is he's only been training in MMA something like 3-4 years. It takes time to learn the ground game to a point where a person develops the right habits and can defend submissions. A lot of newer guys like Matt Mitrione, Pat Barry and Lavar Johnson don't do well on the ground. They lack the experience. Shawn Jordan has been training in MMA for a shorter period of time than they have which could mean Jordan is suspect if he goes to the ground with Gonzaga who is known to have a great submission & ground game.

    That said, Jordan also has an extremely defense body structure. He is like a walking juggernaut. Being from a football background his base is strong in a way that translates to Gonzaga having a hard time getting him down to work his submissions. Up till this point, Gonzaga hasn't shown much development with his takedowns. If he continues to fight the way he has in previous bouts, its doubtful he'll get Jordan down.

    Jordan is also heavy handed. Gonzaga has improved his boxing a lot. But hasn't shown anything dangerous on his feet since he head kick KO'ed Cro Cop.

    If it goes to the ground and Gonzaga gets a good position, he could well choke Jordan unconscious or make him tap.

    But if it stays standing, Jordan probably has the advantage as long as he doesn't get careless.
