One of my parlays... Thought to share.. All favorites of course on the Parlay bets in MMA is the golden rule...

Sara Kaufman, Mark Bocek, Nordine Kaleb... Bet that you win just double your money back plus 30 percent.. 100 to win 130 on my sportsbook anyways..

Hope it lands and I think it will... Thought to share... I think Sara Kaufman is a great bet by itself...
Wouldnt be surprised if Taleb loses, guy is massively over-hyped because he trained with GSP at tri-star. He's slow as fuuck and slows down considerably as fight progresses - Zaromskis cruised past him in their Bellator fight. Grujic dude might be even slower though so should be ok, Im hoping Taleb does win and wins impressively so I can fade the fuuck out of him against any half-decent fighter in future!

I don't consider him some world beater but I still think this is going to be a bit of a squash match.

I think UFC is spoon feeding Taleb a W here.

For those of you who don't know, by the way, if I'm understanding this correctly, TUF 19 (Edgar vs Penn) is going to debut right after the card, and Taleb is a cast member of TUF 19, also. He's going to fight in the UFC the night that his second season of TUF airs.

Ha yeah ridiculous. Guy fails on tuf canada so just goes on the next tuf as well! The whole point of tuf has been completely erroded!

Agree, this reeks of suspect matchmaking; part of the reason I have a decent amount of exposure to him. Hope he doesn't crap the bed

I hope you are wrong.. I did consider the hype for the GSP training camp at tri-star.. Gotta figure if you train with some of the best you become the best.. You're only as good as whom you train with for most.. Then again just because a guy trains at a certain camp where a great fighter trains doesn't always means that he is actually training with him or other greats on a consistent basis..

I just think Taleb matches up well with Grujic because of his striking and power. Taleb is a physical specimen and trains with good wrestlers so Grujic's Jits should not become a factor in this fight I would think.. I think Grujic gets KO'd in this bout..
