Bookmaker opened TUF 11 lines. I havent had a chance to watch all fights from house, but nothing jumps out at me as way off.

typical overpriced TUF lines imo.
I like rich at +110, Bryant +170, and maybe Mcray at +155... I could see that fight with Mcgee going a lot like his rematch with BryantComment -
I would be careful with the Mcgee fight Ilmatik, McGee was in great shape on the show and Mccray kind of would gas out during the second round of every one of his fights. Also McGee is the far superior wrestler. I know it has been months since the guys were in the house but I would like to know where the guys have been training since then and with what camps.Comment -
I'll be betting on McGee...he's superior everywhere I reckon based on the fights in TUF. Also has the whole former heroin addict story...I think he's destined to win the show and will have more heart and determination than the Savage!
Also like Antonito to beat Yager as + odds and Bryant to beat Noke.Comment -
you guys were not impressed with Mccrays wrestling in his rematch against Bryant? both guys are way too green for me to lay -190 on either one of them, probably pass on that one unless the Mccray line gets betterComment -
Based on early line movement Attonito +115 at Bodog seems to have potential. I'm taking a piece of that and going to look to scalp.Comment -
Ye was decent wrestling but I think McGee will be harder to get down and have better stand-up, cardio and a better camp and strategy.....check out this interview with him: http://www.tsn.ca/mma/story/?id=324733
He has been training with Liddell's camp, including Jake Shields:
"McGee, who has battled far worse demons than McCray, reckons he has done all he can to get ready for the fight.
The 25-year-old spent half of his training camp in San Luis Obispo, Calif., working with former light-heavyweight champion Chuck (The Iceman) Liddell — his coach on the reality TV show — and coaches John Hackleman, Howard Davis Jr. and Sammie Henson. He also spent time in San Francisco with fighter Jake Shields and Los Angeles with coach Scott Epstein.
Most recently he finished up his camp in the 1,430-metre altitude of Orem."
Love this quote from him as well....
"My life has dramatically changed. I can't even express to you in words how grateful I am for the small things. I mean I live in a shitty little apartment and I don't make a lot of money. I don't have a lot of nice shit. I don't have a nice vehicle. I have bills like everybody else and I'm absolutely 100 per cent grateful and happy.
"I wake up happy every day and it's because this shitty little apartment is my apartment. This job that I have is what I love to do and the payout is that I can better take care of my family."
WAR MCGEE!!!Comment -
Travis Browne seems like a real monster. What are thoughts on -155. Cardio would be a quaetion as most of his fights have ended early. Anyone see his Bellator fight?Comment -
His stand up isnt great...but he should have a grappling advantage mostly due to his size as McSweeney should be fighting at LHW...maybe he can smother McSweeney for three rounds or even G&P him. McSweeney's striking is overrated as well...his kickboxing style isnt tht great for MMA....he got TKO'd by MUSTAPHA AL-TURK for example!!! I see it being similar to his fight with Neil Grove, who is similar build to Browne at 6foot 6inches and 263lbs and TKO'd Sweeney in the second round. I like Browne at -155 and will probly put a small play on him as long as Hornbuckle doesnt lose on Thurs!Comment -
locked Browne up at -155
Mcsweeney makes me laugh.. that might be all that needs to be said about this fightComment -
Dude is a douche! Was classic and comical tho when he kicked the dumb character in TUF in the nuts thn put him in a guillotine! Only thing he has going for him is his good camp...training with Rashad and the dudes at Jackson MMA...but I only think he's allowed to hang around their because he's Rashad's bitch!Comment -
I got me some Browne and Rich against Yager. McSweeney is 4-4 with losses to Al Turk and Neil Grove as already mentioned. Beating Titties is what got him a 2nd fight
Comment -
I like Josh Bryant over Noke @ +160. McCray is a common opponent here, right? Noke didn't show any ability to defend against wrestling. I like Bryant's chin and the way he always appears active.Comment -
I wouldnt judge Noke by what you saw on the show....the guy is pretty solid. Watch some of his Elite XC fights or his fight vs Lombard for a better idea of his skill set. Not saying to bet on him or against him, just realize that they fight in a 6 week period on a reality show with no formal training camp. Its a lot different that prepare 2 months out for a fight where you get to study the opponent.Comment -
Thts true, he does have a great camp aswell. Im just goin to put Bryant in one of my low risk low chance parlays!Comment -
Don't like the lines out that much. I think Mcgee will win the fight, but Mccray's got a decent shot. Might make a play on either guy depending on which way the line goes. The Bryant line is pretty good, but like Ecco said, it's hard to tell where Noke is going to be when the fight starts. He was Chuck's first pick for a reason. Still like the line. Probably going to make some small plays unless something changes.Comment -
Nothing jumps out at me either.Comment -
Nobody likes Jager? I know he quit against somebody he was definitely supposed to beat with all of the sh-t talking he did in the house but dude was really hard to take down in all of his fights until he gassed against Josh. I will have to watch Attonito fight again and see if I like his style matchup against Jager. Even though he was a douche, Jager was very explosive.Comment -
Would have to agree, Yager is one of the most athletic fighters of the bunch. I think a lot of people will bet against just because he is a douche.Comment
