Pretty much confirms in this that he plans to stand and bang and has no plans on going to the ground with Melvin and that he wants FOTN bonus cos he likes the dollar (dont see why SOTN wouldnt be good enough - same money!). Makes me re-consider playing Cerrone tho at current odds

hope he's just fockin with marlon's head

**gabe** · 08-08-12, 05:52 PM

I think he plans to have a stand up war then finish him on the ground.

**BIGDAY** · 08-08-12, 06:43 PM

Cowboy has the chin to stand, Don't know why he would though.

I would think it'd be pretty one sided on the ground.

Guy doesn't have much for brains. Price too steep for me. Staying away.

**bjpenn85** · 08-08-12, 06:54 PM

not straight play obviously, put i easily include him in a parlay with a tko to hedge. I dont think guillard wins a decision, and he certainly wont submit cerrone. just look how lopsided the fight against stephans was compared to guillards. Cerrones stand up is so much better i think.

Yeah, I think the current price is fair for a smart Cowboy fighting a dumb Melvin (the only type there is). If he's going in slugging, I don't like his chances. Especially after Melvin fought a smart fight against Camoes.

If Melvin tries to fight "smart' he has no chance. Cowboy has a better skillset and will inevitably pick him apart and win a decision. His best chance is too just try and knock Cerrone's head off.

**Grabaka** · 08-08-12, 10:00 PM

I would like to see Melvin start "smart" if i was in his corner. Find your groove and then go back to being Melvin.

“Wow you and Melvin??? I was like ‘he took the fight??? after all those ass whoopin’s I seen with my own eyes in training!!!?” Sanchez Tweeted.

Greg Jackson wouldn’t elaborate on Sanchez’s revealing Tweet, but did want to clarify his thoughts on the “Fredo-like” act of discussing family business with people outside the family.

“Donald is a phenomenal fighter and an amazing athlete but I’m not going to go and say who does what in sparring,” says Jackson. “Because if I do that it sets this precedent where now everybody’s worried about sparring and ‘what’s Wink going to say,’ ‘what’s Greg going to say.’ So for me, sparring is a sacred thing you really shouldn’t have to think about. Like, ‘uh oh I had a really bad day.’ I know how it is myself. I did two rounds today and I’m thinking ‘Good Lord when did it start getting so hard?’ But maybe next Tuesday I’ll have a better day. That’s why I never talk about who does what in sparring.”

Cowboy however, makes it pretty clear that his experience in the gym with Melvin inspires confidence.

“Training with the guy -- if you push him -- even in his fights, when he’s down and he starts doubting himself he breaks pretty easy, he folds up a little bit. But I hope a confident Melvin shows up. I want the best Melvin they got. If he thinks he can beat me, that’s great, I’m here and I want to see it. Just tell Melvin ‘I’m coming to whip your ass.’”

yea, kalikas mentioned this in the video too. if this is true, you have to give melvin some props for taking the fight.

**bjpenn85** · 08-10-12, 02:06 AM

Herman bet, hmm...do not like that bet. Herman tko maybe, but betting against shields ground game is outright stupid. Thats gambling, and gamling is tacky, for people with piercing in the eyebrows and tribal tattoos.

**Vaughany** · 08-10-12, 03:39 AM

Sailing results are in. GB has taken Gold, Denmark have taken Silver and Somalia have taken a middle-aged couple from Weymouth.

I only have Herman currently to complete an ongoing parlay along with Henderson - thinking I might hedge with Shields. He's down to -200 on my book.

Vaughany, you have to love Paddy... Jake Shields by Submission or on Points - 4/9. Jake Shields SU - 1/2.

**bjpenn85** · 08-10-12, 03:57 AM

paddy is awesome as long as you win small sums. if you win big..only one time..they start restricting at once.

Yeah, until I step it up a bit I'll be absolutely fine I imagine. Most I've won is like £150 on a football bet, ,double of Portugal 1-0 Czech Republic, Ronaldo first goalscorer. Max I ever really bet is around £20 at the moment, and that's usually if I'm bored at work and want some degen action (really ***** me over). With my MMA bets I try to at least maintain some bankroll management.

**bjpenn85** · 08-10-12, 07:33 AM

i dont remember how much i won. but it was something like that , maybe 250 pounds one time...and a couple of months later 150 pounds and that was all they could take. I dont understand how theyr able to hold on to customers if they behave so dishonest.

It is pretty odd, especially since if people are using them exclusively they can most likely get a welcome bonus at any number of other books if they were to change. I've not had any issues with them personally, and they seem to be the only UK book that do MMA props and have lines for all the fights.

In other news, Burroughs looking like a beast.

Tht Gentry match was a bit too close tho!

**Vaughany** · 08-10-12, 08:46 AM

Gonna be Tsargush vs Burroughs in semi

**Vaughany** · 08-10-12, 09:37 AM

Wowwwza tht was a rollercoaster! Amazing resolve from Burroughs to come back from a point down in each round and win them both. Goudarzhi in the final tonight

Wow that was intense indeed mate. What's this Goudarzhi fella like? I'm at work so only been able to look at Burroughs matches thus far.

Ogogo's been on by the way, watching that now - my boy Berinchyk is in the finals. Glad I bet on him, but not for that reason - I ******* love his style. About the sloppiest amateur boxer I've ever seen be successful.

Goudarzhi is a beast, very strong and good drive. He dominated the Hungarian in the semi. Burrows beat Goudarzhi at last year's world championships and beat him again in May in World Cup...hopefully makes it 3 in a row! He should have a bigger speed advantage than he had against Tsargush

Nice, I was gonna go this Friday but cant get out of work as everybody has already booked time off at this time of year

Yeah Noroozi was solid, hopefully is compadre Gourdarzhi isnt as impressive on Friday!

Got £820 on Burroughs at moment to win £1790 at moment. Also got a risk free play on Tsargush as back up to win £270. I may by back a bit more on Burroughs Not to Win Gold if goes back down to -130 or something so that I have 500 at risk.

Boooooooooooom £1,800 profit thanks to Jordan Burroughs #ALLISEEISGOLD
