Joe Warren vs Georgi Karakhanyan

[Educ8d Degener8]

odds are up... Georgi at +280... I need to review his fights. I presume he'll inevitably end up on his back here, but if there's one thing Joe Warren has shown, it's that he likes to give up his limbs and put himself in sub situations.

And Georgi likes them subs.

wow, i was just about to make a post on this in my thread

im loving georgi, especially at +280

debating to bite now or wait

[illmatick]

what do you guys think about Reis vs Freire? first instinct is to pound Freire here but not completely sold that reis won't be able to take him down at will

[brooks85]

im liking freire also, going to watch wilsons fight with soto again.

Re: Reis / Freire... Wish I could give you an opinion/lean at this point, but if I did, I'd be making it relatively uninformed as I haven't done my homework there. Reis looked real solid in the opening round of the tourney though...

I'm really intrigued by Georgi because Warren's sub defense is horrible. But his wrestling is pretty sick. Standing -- I need to see more footage. But Warren will take it down. Whether he can gnp Georgi or ends up submitted is the question.

gerogi can also hurt warren on his feet, warren will have to walk through punches to get the takedown

Good luck

nice job guys.....Kara down to +150

[illmatick]

wow, now -110 at 5 dimes

when's the last time we had this much movement on a mma line?

[terpkeg]

i think Veach moved from around -140 to - 340
Curran went from about -350 to -800 last time out

those two stand out to me because i hit both the openers and both plays lost.

[illmatick]

yeah, I should have been more specific but I was referring to the last time there was this much movement on a dog

I remember Cain opening at +190 over Kongo and then closing as a fav but that's the closest I can think of

+280 to -110 almost seems unheard of

[brooks85]

painful

[illmatick]

armbar was so close

[Educ8d Degener8]

Wow. I didn't get in on the Georgi play due to not getting the opening line. And I still think getting him at opening odds was the "right play". Just not the winning bet unfortunately for those who bet on him.

How many subs did he get Warren in -- heel hook, deep guillotine, deep armbar, guillotine (not deep due to sweat), kimura (didn't lock it in). But still, he at least made 3-5 attempts to end that fight. Played out how most expected.

Warren is just one bull-headed and tough sumnab*tch. I'll give him that for sure.

anyone remember which book opened the line for this fight..brooks?
