    Posting month-late "openers" and this still isn't the worst thread of the week.

    Blame non-dsi books/the media for taking this long to pick it up. Or better yet, don't. More whinging needed.

    Smell Shaubby top control draws.

    I suspect some value on Chael Sonnen, but that totally depends on what type of kicking strategy he chooses to employ here, and how effective he is in his execution of it.

    I saw this event coming to my town a little while ago.. May be in attendance if nothing else is going on that day..

    Chael Sonnen in a WJJ match with Galvao.. LOL.. He must be hard up for the spot light and in need of a pay check these days to take part in this match up.

    Last I read, the NSAC is trying to fine him $250,000 for competing in Metamoris. He's going to fight it which still won't be cheap. Don't think he's hard up for cash as you suggest.

    Never know if Chael Sonnen is a compulsive gambler and pissing away all his fortunes with online Poker? .. LOL..

    Seriously, I was thinking, Chael was certainly not employed and the Zuffa paychecks stopped coming in.. He probably saw dollar signs more then anything signing onto this event.. Since when is CS rolling in JJ matches anyways? I'd laugh if he loses by triangle sub..

    Metamoris looks like a fascinating ju jitsu exhibition on many levels.

    Unibet had the draw for the Sonnen/Galvao match at +800 (now +625) . All over this one

    Not sure if those lines are anywhere close now. But damn then Sonnen and Barnett match draws are juicy as hell. Like the Vinny/Corn daw line as well.

    damn

    He's not gonna be fined.. This is not sanctioned by the California or Nevada commission.. We can be assured Chael is juicing coming in to this.. Not gonna help him in this one.. Like Bas Rutten said it will be huge if Chael Sonnen can just make it the distance in this match up with a Jits champion like Galvao...

    Catch wrestling of Josh Barnett could be an interesting grappling contest..

    Yep money on Sonnen is dead money. I went pretty big on the draw (before the NSAC news) . Few reasons I like the draw

    1. Sonnen will have 30+ lbs on Galvao
    2. Galvao's no gi record doesn't have many finishes on it
    3. Sonnen is the much better wrestler, he will be the one that ends up on top and has the top control to stay there.

    Not sure I would bet it at +300 (that bet dsi has) . But if you can get +500 or more it is for sure worth a punt

    I don't even see this event up on the board at 5D??????.. What bookie are ya getting this action on?

    Chael weighing more, juiced up and with his wrestling back ground, no gi, hmmm?.. I still think Chael gets sub'd out in this but that might be worth a shot at +500 like ya say for going the distance.. I'm sure Chael will be looking to just survive in this so you never know???

    Yep not many books have lines for this event pretty surprised 5D hasn't got them. Only books I know that have it are betdsi and unibet . I'm on unibet who opened the draw line at +800! now it has settled to +600.

    I have to think that all Chael is thinking about is just to not get humiliated .On the fighter on the kid podcast Schaub mentioned that Sonnen's coach had studied the Schaub/Cyborg fight so fingers crossed.

    whats with teh fukn betting odds josh barnett would manhandle dean lister but the question is how is to scored every submission attempt and it seems like it's rigged for the bjj experts to win on points if the big boys barnett and sonnen don't get a sub

    How does a "war master" lose a wrestling match? This line is illogical.

    I hit that Barnett / Lister Draw. Lister might run through him, but we shall see.

    Monson looks absolutely terrifying btw, like some sort of ancient Golem brought to life.

    are you kidding me barnett is going to beast that kid and as for chael sonnen, chael sonnen is a 205er going against a little puny andre galvao who barely walks around at 185 he's just gonna put him in a headlock and pop his head like you pop your pimples

    Bets I like . 66% of Metamoris matches go the distance so + money on any draw warrants a serious look at IMO

    Garry Tonon WIN
    Sonnen/Galvao DRAW
    Lister/Barnett - DRAW

    lol these are the exact 3 plays that i'm on. bigger on lister draw.

    tonon might not get a sub, but at +400 i think it is worth a small play.

    you have a lean for the magaletch fight?

    Pass for me.. Vinny is too much of a mental midget that I wouldn't trust him not to get tapped. Likely a Draw but -190 is a bit too steep.

    agree 100%, thats exactly how i was looking at it. however, if i end up watching the event i might get the itch for some action. really torn between cornelius +140 and the draw -190.

    Yup. Those are the 2 plays for that match. There is no way Keenan is going to get tapped. It's too bad that he is such a pussy. Otherwise it would be interesting to see him in MMA.
