Brian Foster??? Yea I know it sucks...

But really, that guy needs to be back too...

**fosho14** · 05-22-12, 06:48 PM

Ya, Foster better be getting paid well fighting for those small organizations because he is def a ufc caliber fighter, would be nice to have him back. I hope one day in the future the ufc will completely dominate the landscape and there won't be a zillion little promotions competing. It's getting closer and closer to that.

V, any plays for the cage warriors event?

Nah, only things I'd consider would be Buchinger as dog against Gonzalez just because this fight is a 50/50. And if Penz can get Phillips to ground he has a good chance as Phillips is a one dimensional boxer but I believe Penz comes from striking background so will probably stand with him

thanks man. im feeling compelled to make a degenerate play. i was considering mortimore at -215 against bengtsson. dont know anything about either guy, but i just watched alex emelianenko vs bengtsson and it looks like bengtsson threw the fight. the guy got dropped by alex's first strike, a soft jab. wasnt even a convincing work.

Shiit if only I had Bovada. And I also was on pinnacle yesterday when Barao was at -105 but had maxed all my account funds on Marquardt and it wouldnt let me deposit more for some reason

**Vaughany** · 05-24-12, 09:24 AM

Strikeforce: Rockhold vs Kennedy plays:

23.205 units on Marquardt at -105 to win 22.1 units;

24.310 units on Marquardt at -110 to win 22.1 units.

Took this as I believe Woodley will end up +130 to +160 range dog. Will possibly play Woodley by decision or fight goes distance as hedge.

**Beelzebubzy** · 05-24-12, 09:41 AM

I still dont know how Nate is going to make the weight. Yeah he had a long time to cut and gt down, but he looked huge to me at 185. I think he can finish woodley very quickly if he keeps this standing. Hopefully, he doesnt get gun shy ala the okami fight

Taken over from Gabe as the dog hunter! GL bro

Im off to the Netherlands tonight for a weekend of debauchery at Pinkpop Festival so not gonna get to see the UFC. Hopefully JDS/Mir doesnt end up going distance - was planning on being able to arb out in live betting if the fight made it to Round 3 or 4 but just gonna have to hope tht JDS gets it done! Im hoping and expecting that JDS sees that Nog had success early by pressing the action and looks to repeat except doesn't make the error of looking for a sub after dropping Mir with an uppercut or hook/overhand to the temple! The whole avenging his master Nogueira thing also makes me think that JDS will look to end this with a TKO/KO rather than jus sit behind his jab and be elusive like he planned to do against Cain until he got injured in camp.

**Grabaka** · 05-24-12, 01:08 PM

Thats not wishing me luck!
Anyway....i know.

Yeah, shame I didnt bet it!

**blumpkin** · 05-24-12, 04:51 PM

Hey V, can you give me a quick breakdown on the hardy fight for me? Are you going to arb out?

**fosho14** · 05-24-12, 04:59 PM

**gabe** · 05-24-12, 05:56 PM

I think Barboza is gonna knock Varner out, V.

Wouldn't you still be fu*ked because of how many of your parlays would be killed though?

Varner has a great chin and has never been knocked out. Barboza scored a beautiful highlight reel in his last outing, and although it is possible I really don't see that happening back to back against someone as tough as Varner.

**gabe** · 05-24-12, 06:37 PM

KO or Submission. Barboza ITD.

lol at submission I haven't even seen this guy go to the ground yet, he doesn't have a ground game if he did he wouldn't rely so much on his technical standup to get him decision victories like against antony njoukani who has no ground game either. This guy has faced primarily standup fighters. Varner just has to watch out for his leg kicks score a takedown every round and move around like condit and he'll win.

**Vaughany** · 05-24-12, 09:45 PM

He just might do that. Got him straight up in a parlay in case

Jose Aldo is the same, I guess he's got terrible ground game too...smh...can't believe this troll is still at it

I'm wondering, also.

Which straight plays will you not be arbing out of?

Yea because Edson Barboza is Jose Aldo right...

No, he is not Jose Aldo. He is a similar fighter, though. Hence why I made the comparison... LOL you are truly are the dumbest person that's posted here in my time here, being completely honest.

Edson Barboza is a talented purple belt in BJJ. Aldo has sick BJJ, too, you just don't see it 'cos they're so good in their stand-up... For you to think Barboza isn't good on the ground...lol...dude, you really shouldn't be posting here. I really hope your account is banned soon.
