    I think there will be a fair amount of finishes on this card. I like finishes.

    This is an awesome card!!!!

    Aldo is almost a 3-1 underdog.. WOW!!! Not sure about that? I think I'll be on Aldo in this one..

    Lean: Aldo, Overeem, Eddie.

    Gotta pick Aldo at those odds. Overeem could derail all that Ngannou hype but of course...he could go to sleep as well. Hoping for that one shot that wins him the bout.

    Legit AF card. Have to think Aldo and Reem are good value.

    Good Value with shot chins I think better spots to get bets in.

    I don't think Reem can handle the power.. One tap on that suspect chin and down goes Reem.. Reem fights defensive protecting that chin these days as well.. Not sure you can do that against this black beast and get away with that... Francis by KO..

    UFC 218 - Heavyweight 3 rounds - Little Caesars Arena - Detroit, Michigan - PPV
    Sat 12/2 1101 Alistair Overeem +205 o1˝ +105
    11:30PM 1102 Francis N'Gannou -245 u1˝ -125


    Gotta go with by boy Justin G.. I do think this is brawlers dream.. Eddie is no easy out.. Both fighters might get rocked in this fight. Justin by KO...

    UFC 218 - Lightweight 3 rounds - Little Caesars Arena - Detroit, Michigan - PPV
    Sat 12/2 1301 Eddie Alvarez +160 o1˝ -185
    10:30PM 1302 Justin Gaethje -185 u1˝ +160



    The kid Sergio Pettis I think is gonna be in trouble against Henry C... Henry looked damn good in his last fight.. All in on Henry... Henry ITD..

    Cooper opened at -300

    ABC 2-3 record is - 300 let that sink in. WME loves to put on trash women to break up a great card for bathroom breaks I guess.

    This is one of those cards where you really don't have to think and cap as we know all the fighters really well for the most part.. I like these kind of cards...

    loving Aldo and Overeem at such great odds 2/1 +
    just one wins and you get some profit, which i think is a great chance

    justin vs eddie for the violence championship is one of the best fights of 2017 potentially

    david teymur is fighting

    all in bet cejudo over pettis

    I disagree with saying Aldo has a shot chin. Reem's is obviously suspect but he's also far more skilled/tougher competition than anybody Ngannou has faced.

    I'm surprised Kevin Lee isn't fighting on this card... He's from Detroit...

    You just know he doesn't like sitting this one out...

    That Aldo line is a real head scratcher. How can anyone be a 3-1 favorite against Aldo. In his last 3 fights, guy gets flash KO'd, dominates Edgar, and then loses to Holloway. With current implied odds they're giving him a 27% chance to win the rematch? I don't think MMA works like that.

    ^^^I already laid down some scratch on Aldo before those odds tighten up.. He could finish or win by decision I think...

    Max Holloway is tough but I think it should be a pick em fight on the odds or maybe Aldo even being the slight favorite maybe..

    I wonder if he still wants to move up to 170. Wouldn't shock me if he is mulling it over (thus the delay), I think he was overreacting to a bad weight cut after that Ferg fight.

    I could see Aldo getting the nod to set up the trilogy fight but I still lean Max. Maybe parlay him with JG.

    I'm just looking forward to the fight.. It's very hard to beat a fighter at this level twice.. I think Aldo will be more determined and make some adjustments...

    Max Holloway is on a hella winning streak though so you never know?.. He just beat Aldo too.. No guarantees ..http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Max-Holloway-38671

    I don't see Aldo trading blows in this fight so I'm calling it Aldo by points and by UN decision this second go around.. With ya JC on the Trilogy set up...

    I still think Max is gonna beat him. He's on fire right now. Of course me saying this tells me you should take Aldo.

    It's just my opinion. I think he's all wrong for Aldo and has his number.

    Going big on a few plays this weekend. Haven't put my 4-5 unit record on the line in a while, but I've got two plays so far lined up. Hopefully my eyes aren't lying to me.

    Definitely not going to get to capping every one of these fights this weekend. Trying to pick my spots and get a real good in depth look at some of them. So far I've done Johns/Soto and O'Malley/Ware from the TUF card, and Klose/Teymur and Willis/Crowder on this card. That Klose/Teymur fight is an incredible matchup. Both of those fighters are very very good IMO.

    obviously the public will think max will win, since hes already beat Aldo before and people believe in what they see
    but if you watch closely Aldo was winning the first 2 rounds and looked much faster, training videos of him throwing kicks now really made me like his chances in this matchup.... if he doesnt mix it up with kicks he WILL most likely lose again , but if he brings he original style he has a solid shot 50/50 minimum in this scrap imo.... with +200 or more odds i like that value



    very very solid card though , liking cejudo anything under -250 max bet

    hugo how you liking your boy teymur at -165??

    Love Teymur as a fighter. Still capping Klose there but I'll probably be on Teymur. I've done well with Teymur bets in the past so we'll see if that streak continues. I actually think Pettis has a solid shot here. Want to put some BPs on it?

    Pettis better bring his chin. Cejudo is a damn wrecking ball. 100% TDD and he just wails power on the feet. I like both these fighters but Cejudo is worthy of that -250 IMO. Pettis is going to have to be incredibly sharp and technical for all 3 rounds to beat Cejudo.
