Seems solid...but almost too solid to be true! Loveland did seem a bit bigger than Benavidez at weigh-ins and may have good enough wrestling to keep things interesting. Regarding Marquardt I'll be SHOCKED if he doesnt win this one...no doubt Marquardt is perennially overrated, but against a guy like Miller who is a small middleweight and who hasn't faced anybody with Marquardt's power I find it hard to imagine Miller beatin Nate. I'd actually be more confident with a Marquardt and Barboza double.
Yea I noticed that loveland was bigger too. It worried me a little, but Benavidez should be able to out work him rather easily. I also liked Barboza, but don't know as much about him as I do Benavidez. Probably do two parlays one with each of them and Nate in both.
Good luck tomorrow night Pal.. I have a feeling you won't be seeing any red!
jones for the win
GL tonight Sir, lets have a positive night!
Hey Vaughany, Rua or Jones?
anxious to see barbosa....but i noticed on one of the youtube vids i watched(vs jose figueroa),that his hands,although powerful,aren`t particularly fast.....
the legs are amazing....power in his hands....but the hands aren`t what i`d call quick...
he struggled with figueroa until he landed the big counter shot....was on his back for a good while taking some strikes...btw...figueroa isn`t a dog...he`s fighting in the main event at next week`s m-1 showtime card...
not worried about njok`s ground game at all....but he has fairly quick hands and dangerous muay thai......so i`m probably hedging both barbosa pars with a njok. play...either straight at roughly +250 or by k.o. at 440...
even though barbosa looks amazing,he`s facing a tall dangerous muay thai guy that has power...neither guy has much foot movement...neither seem to back up much....and even though barboza is talking ground game,i haven`t seen it in any videos...doesn`t mean it`s not there...
this should end violently....
g.l.
this goes 3 i`ll be shocked...
