[The HOFF]

MMA Live on ESPN reported a possible match up between Forest Griffin and Antonio Rogerio Noguiera sometime in April or May.

[THE_LOCKSMITH]

[illmatick]

I was thinking Nog is going to be in the -250 range maybe -300.

I was thinking Nog is going to be in the -250 range maybe -300.

That's exactly how I see it, We'll see how much Griffins name effects the line.

[Kaladarus]

Hopefully the line is good, but either way I'm excited for this fight.

[Tree Rollins]

All i know is Nog can't let it go to decision. You can't win decisions against forrest griffin.

[clarkd32]

forrest didn't even look that great vs Tito.. I will pray for nice price on Nog and take my chances...

[Straight Cash]

This is gonna be a great fight, looking forward to it!

If it does open in the -250~-300 range, will Nog still hold value to you? If yes, when would Nog stop holding value to you? If no, what would the line have to open at for you to make a play?

[illmatick]

I would say anything under -450 is worth a max wager

[RobbReport]

Nog is gonna beat that ass

[Busterflywheel]

NOG must strive for KO...

[The HOFF]

If it does open in the -250~-300 range, will Nog still hold value to you? If yes, when would Nog stop holding value to you? If no, what would the line have to open at for you to make a play?

I think -250 is right at that point. If it opens at or under that, I would feel comfortable with a few units on Nog. If it is over that I'll have to see exactly where it is and whether the line goes up or down from there. I think anything over -300 is getting close to the point where I wouldn't make a play.

lets not over look forrest here.. remember, he hit big when he was +380 against shogun and as a dog against rampage

A lot of that was luck though, Shogun with knee injury's and Page should have won then went crazy .
I wonder what Forrest game plan will be, This is a very bad match up for him.

[Tree Rollins]

I don't know about a max wager. Like Shady said, let's not overlook forrest. Like i said earlier, if nog isn't able to finish the fight then that's bad news. Forrest is wildly popular and usually gets the benefit of the doubt from the judges. That fact alone makes me nervous to wager serious money on nog.

[The HOFF]

Why was the title of this thread changed to include the word Boxing? WTF? I didn't do that.

LOL! Your avatar is hilarious!!!!!

griffin has the most heart in the biz but thats hardly enough for this fight.

[RobbReport]

Nog hit's harder than people realize, I mean, how many times did he drop Randy? a shitload of times.

[msec512]

Nog will KO Forrest. Forrest really got exposed against Anderson Silva.

[Kaladarus]

Nog's striking is excellent and he has good power. Even if this does go to a decision, which I doubt it will, Nog should be able to do more than enough damage for it to go his way. I am fairly confident this fight will end in a KO.

[Busterflywheel]

Griffin wins Decision..NOG must KO

[Boddhissatva]

I have Nog winning easy...but i've also learned that one should never count out Forrest Griffin..

Wrong Nog. Randy fought the HW, Rodrigo (Big Nog). Forrest is fighting the LHW, Rogério (Lil Nog).

Before the Anderson fight I'd agree with you but now it's gotta go to big Nog.

and keith jardine.. and evans..

[THE_LOCKSMITH]

Little Nog is the most under rated LHW coming over from PRIDE. That Sokoudjou loss hurt him. Was probably ranked behind several LHW of Pride

W Silva
Shogun Rua
Rampage Jackson
Dan Henderson
Sokoudjou

[RobbReport]

Wrong Nog. Randy fought the HW, Rodrigo (Big Nog). Forrest is fighting the LHW, Rogério (Lil Nog).

even worse! lil nog is the pro boxer that just KO'd Cain Luiz.

Funny but I'm actually talking about his brother Big Nog, Whom got ran over by a truck... Maybe read the entire post

Fair enough. Your post was vague and didn't mention the truck, but still a fair inference. Point (begrudgingly) to knownone.

[Busterflywheel]

Im not knocking NOG..He's a striking LHW...I just think in order for him to win this match he must go for KO..In decision I think Forrest's form favors him in card action....Just a opinion though..
