    Facepunch UFC 114
    It has been a while since I have been this excited for a fight, and have been waiting for this day since the fight was announced.

    I am betting this heavy( for me)



    Bisping
    Sadollah
    Sanchez
    Parlay
    60 to win 195


    In addition putting

    3 units on Bisping
    1 unit on Sadollah
    6 units on Sanchez


    The main event is going to be a great fight either way. I think that Jackson is the better fighter, but the twilight of his career is quickly approaching. He has stated numerous times that he does not like MMA and only does it "to get paid" . I think the personal animosity between the two may be to Evans advantage. Rampage is a wild fighter and in a lot of his fights he has been all over the place, where I see Evans as being able to control the pace and take advantage of his more cerebral style.

    The final straw for me was seeing Rampage at weigh-ins, he looked like he had cut quite a bit of weight, and pretty awful.

    This one is almost too close to call but as a betting man I am going to back the fighter that is not struggling with age or motivation. I wish that I would have gotten on this when it was in the +130 area I would have pounded it pretty hard, but at this price, only a small ish play is warranted.

    3 units on Evans -115


    Good luck everyone enjoy the fights, I know I will.

    I am going to a local bar where I can plan on seeing about 500 out of shape douchebags with tapout shirts that think that they have to act tough because they are watching a fight

      You're exactly right about the weigh-in. I don't remember seeing rampage look like that at a weigh-in. Ring rust has proven itself over and over throughout the history of mma. I worry about Rampages cardio more then anything.

      If this were normal rampage, he wins this fight 10 times out of 10. Today's Rampage, with ring-rust, time off, not in great shape and cutting too much weight, probably only wins this fight 6 times out of ten. IMO.
