    I'm guessing Liam McGeary, Josh Thomson and King Mo will be heavy favorites.

    Phil Davis vs Emmanuel Newton and the over/under/props might be the only decent odds, unless opting for a longshot.

    All the favorites should win as well.. I'm gonna be on McGeary, Thompson, King MO and Phil Davis.. If the odds are out of control it's parlay time.. I don't see any of these 4 guys getting beat...

    Phil Davis and the Josh Thompson fights probably go over... McGeary/Tito under looks really good..

    -McGeary will knock out Tito

    -Thompson is simply a better well rounded fighter then Mike B

    - King Mo will either KO or out wrestle for the win..

    - Emanual Newton has a punchers chance but Phil Davis actually has a good chin and should wrestle fock Newton to a decision win..

    Looking forward to the rematch between Gaethje vs Palomino. Epic battle between the two with back and forth action in their first fight. The Highlight will most likely successfully defend his title but it won't be easy. Wouldn't be surprised to see Baboon take the title either.

    Bellator - I like McGeary to take out Ortiz within 2 rounds. Also, like Davis and Newton to go over 2.5 rounds. Both are excellent wrestlers and both can take some punishment. So the over would be a better bet, IMO. King Mo via decision.

    Doh. Odds are lopsided as expected. That moment when you wish your over under hand is strong.

    ^^^Unwritten on a side note (off topic) -

    Good job on hitting the 3 question trivia for 175 points this month. I keep quiting after winning just 2 questions and then happily take the 60 point free play bitch points every time.. I will venture into deeper waters next time.. Questions get crazy though after 2 as I did try that once or twice since becoming an SBR pro.....

    Sure is, but so is MMA right now in general especially if you are only into the UFC... Plus football season just started and that's taking priority for most...

    Tito doesn't stands a chance. McGeary will pick him apart early and often.

    My favorite play is the over 1.5 Phil Davis / Emanuel Newton. Phil's last 5 have gone the distance, never been KO'd. Newton wins are nearly half of them by decision and his only KO loss was in his first pro MMA fight. This easily goes past 1.5 rounds. Juice is moderately high but will likely hit.

    On all the favorites straight, put together a string of parlays..

    - Also rolling with the over in the Phil Davis/Emanual Newton fight at -350 with Unwritten Law.. That goes in a parlay play as well..

    Single bets -

    - Love the Tito Ortiz/McGeary Under 1.5 at -110.. I don't think Tito survives the 1st round..

    - Josh Thompson fight probably goes over the 2.5 at -130 as well....


    Lots of 2 and 3 team parlays riding for Jibs in this event.. Let's see what sticks fellas!!

    I think Tito is being underestimated. McGeary had zero takedown defense in his fight with Newton. If Tito puts McG on his back in every round and doesn't get subbed, we might have a new champion. Tito's standing punches are also a lot harder and more powerful than they used to be. Tito is more dangerous than people are giving him credit for, imo.

    You're making me want to Hedge Sanity.. Sometimes in these smaller organizations they find a way to make the big name win, Tito is a BIG name and McG is not.. Just saying.. May hedge now with Tito for the straight win at those odds just in case...

    Yeah, Thompson doesn't have big knock out power and seems to always go to decisions...http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Josh-Thomson-2394 Don't think Mike Bronz can finish Thompson either.. This one probably goes to the cards or Josh finishes late...

    I also have Thomson vs Brounzoulis under 2.5. Thomson looked like a beast in his last UFC fight with Tony Ferguson and Ferguson is an animal. Not remembering what Brounzoulis is good at but he did make the finals of Bellator's fight master where he lost to Joe Riggs. Thomson just looked like a beast in his last fight against a tough guy and I think he's overdue for a finish.

    Looks like we're fading each other once again.

    Eh. Just ignore me. Do what you do, bro.

    Good luck Sanity maybe it's your turn to win after last night.. We see??? We are fading each other once again and not on purpose.. Bronz lost to Joe Riggs by decision just for the record.. Bronz also won his last fight by decision.. Like the over...

    Bronzoulis was finished by two no namers in 2014. He claims he made major life changes and turned his career around but I don't know if I believe him.
