StrikeForce HEAVY ARTILLERY (May 15)

brooks85 · 05-09-10, 11:55 AM

last i heard it wasnt looking to good for randleman, might not be able to fight and said if he couldnt, he was going too retire.

This looks like a another bad ass card from strikeforce.Im gonna go pretty huge on Jacare, his grappling is world class and his standup has gotten alot better.Plus Joey hasnt looked very good latley.Brett rogers could also be tempting depending on how big of a dog he is.

Doubt it, there's lot's of hype surrounding Jacare, he's arguably the best BJJ practitioner in MMA right now.

Very interested to see the lines on this when they come out.

PingPong · 05-11-10, 02:02 PM

arlovski vs big foot is going to be a war. interested to see how arlovski's chin holds up

illmatick · 05-11-10, 02:52 PM

bookmaker tells me lines will be out tomorrow... hopefully its early in the a.m

Jrod124 · 05-11-10, 03:50 PM

Overeem large if the line is reasonable

playa420 · 05-11-10, 10:51 PM

a Jacare/Gracie parlay looks solid

SweatySombrero · 05-11-10, 11:22 PM

I know your tired of all the capping after UFC 113, but no time for rest StrikeForce next card is less than a week away, let your research begin

Main Card

Alistair Overeem vs. Brett Rogers
Andrei Arlovski vs. Antonio Silva
Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza vs. Joey Villasenor
Roger Gracie vs. Kevin Randleman
Antwain Britt vs. Rafael Cavalcante
Vitor Ribeiro vs. Lyle Beerbohm

o yeah all the time.

THE_LOCKSMITH · 05-11-10, 11:27 PM

wanna take Arlovski, but coming off 2 Ko's who knows how much chin he has left

brooks85 · 05-11-10, 11:34 PM

bigfoot only has about a round of energy in him but he can definitely put some heat on in that round. If AA comes in smart he would just stay at a distance for awhile.

Shane · 05-12-10, 12:45 AM

Agreed. I think the speed of Arlovski will have Bigfoot in the bag at about the four minute mark of the first round.

Kitt3n · 05-12-10, 06:31 AM

Anyone know if there will be an online stream anywhere?

urge2kill · 05-12-10, 09:03 AM

adthe.net and myp2p.eu

yeah the speed could be a problem but if bigfoot hits that glass chin its over

urge2kill · 05-12-10, 10:52 AM

Gracie is free money.

JuicedUp · 05-12-10, 12:52 PM

Rogers +255

smarmy · 05-12-10, 02:33 PM

all over rogers and silva!

PorkyPig · 05-12-10, 04:41 PM

Sure hope Rogers knocks that roid freak unconscious. As a fan and as a bettor

PingPong · 05-12-10, 05:23 PM

is roger still fighting randleman?

brooks85 · 05-12-10, 05:39 PM

ya randleman got cleared

dooman14 · 05-12-10, 05:49 PM

sign daley for more post fight fights

Pabinator · 05-12-10, 07:52 PM

Wait why is Bret Rogers fighting for the belt & not Fedor? Makes no sense to me?

brooks85 · 05-12-10, 07:53 PM

because M1 is garbage

clarkd32 · 05-12-10, 09:25 PM

gracie looks easy.

anyone have some good undercard selections?

This pretty much. M1 didn't feel they were promoted as heavily as the Strikeforce brand in their first co-promoted event so they contract re-negotiations which put Fedor on the sidelines. They needed to move forward and Brett Rogers has been campaigning for a fight with Roidereem for a long time so he got it.

illmatick · 05-13-10, 12:15 AM

really starting to like Britt, almost reminds me of a smaller brett rogers

line has been on the move all day

So was his brother vs The Mexicutioner... ;p

urge2kill · 05-13-10, 10:55 AM

Beltran can KO guys. Randleman can't.

Valid point.

I was just bringing up that the last time a Gracie (Rolles) was "free money", he was a -900 fav... and got smoked.

BOL

ThisGuy · 05-13-10, 01:13 PM

That's also because not a lot was known about Beltran and ppl saw him as a sacrificial lamb. Evone knows who Randleman is, Dude had staph last week!!! I made a relatively small play on Gracie here too
