UFC 112: BJ Penn vs. Frankie Edgar

[stefan084]

I take Silva and GSP more seriously than Penn as great fighters. I don't have a good read on this fight.

that is one of the most retarded things I've ever read--no offense

I like hughes-Gracie to go to a decision

[knownone]

I see BJ finishing the fight before the 3rd..

Yep this is a definite! Hughes by decision. Im going to put 2 units on Etim, 2 units on Taylor and still considering a small play on Veach. Got 1 unit on Munoz and Penn and 3.5 units on Nelson (already won), BJ and Anderson.

Is selling a 10% stake really going to have an affect on the UFC management decisions? I doubt it. I am stil shocked that they would sell an interest in the company. I guess with the downturn in the economy vegas is hurting and therefore the owners of the ifc are hurting

[Kaladarus]

I wouldn't be too surprised if Hughes won inside the distance, but this will likely end in decision.

[knownone]

Thinking about putting a small Parlay together on BJ and Maia if people keep pounding Silva.

[smarmy]

Penn/Silva/Hughes.

don't even think I'll buy it. all these fights should be over in the 1st round, although I would like to see Gracie choke out Hughes.

[Vrakas]

nice full odds are up

[THE_LOCKSMITH]

i'm curious to hear how the crowd will react to the fights. should be more like the crowds in Japan, and not like the boo birds you hear in north america

[Lincoln73]

I will take a piece of Maia at +6 or 700.

[Shane]

Yeah, I'm looking forward to hearing a crowd get behind a good ground fight.

[brooks85]

more arena picks, place looks awesome

What makes you think it will be a ground fight? BJ will pick Maia apart standning...

haha and Anderson will choke out Edgar!

[Vaughany]

Ive got Matt Hughes to win on points at 10/3 (+330). Pretty good I think! Also considering BJ Edgar to go the distance at 9/2. What are the odds for these results on Bodog and 5dimes???

5Dimes
Penn-Edgar to go the distance +230
Hughes by decision +190

[Vaughany]

Both are amazing value then compared to US sites. Im pretty sure Hughes will get a decision win...he's never had knock out power...usually won by submission or ground and pound but hopefully Gracie high level BJJ will be enough to neutralize those threats...but not good enough to submit Hughes thus leading to a decision win for Hughes! Less confident about Penn Edgar goin to decision but at those odds its worth a small play.

i cant see the bj-edgar fight go 5 rounds. bj will eventually use the standup to setup a sub and get the W.

[squallsquall]

haha and Anderson will choke out Edgar!

Lol!!!11 you're funny, of course he won't

[brooks85]

id say look at penns number -700+, then look at penn inside the distance -200 something.

Definitely seems a little odd, i would say its going to a decision.

[spurnam]

Penn parlay or small on Edgar here. No value in Penn SU.

[nobull]

penn will tear this guy up......

i'd like to see Penn vs St. Pierre again maybe third times a charm for Penn. he's got nothing to lose and UFC has everything to gain .

ratings bonanza again.

Definitely seems a little odd, i would say its going to a decision.

might have something to do with edgar going to dec in all but two of his fights since joining the ufc. but of course those were all 3 round fights and against fighters that couldnt hold bj's jock strap. one of the best steals on this card imo.

My thinking exactly... gonna look at that Penn inside distance prop.

and...

Damn, the Veach line got hammered before I could hit it...

And does anyone else see value in the Blackburn line???

[The HOFF]

And does anyone else see value in the Blackburn line???

I won't touch him after that pathetic showing against Sadollah. Johnson took out a bigger striker in Garcia pretty easily so he has a good chance here too.

[The HOFF]

Not much to like on this card. Very small bets for me. At worst I'm hoping to break even but hoping to cash one of the big underdogs.

Mark Munoz -150 (3u to win 2u)
Alexander Gustafsson +400 (1u to win 4u)
Mustapha Al Turk +245 (1u to win 2.45u)

[cky312]

Dang, Frankie looks a lot bigger than I thought compared to BJ















and just because...
