Anyone taking Jim Miller over Charles Oliveira?

lasker · 12-10-10, 05:35 PM

Seems like everyone is taking Miller except me.

kiefynugs · 12-10-10, 05:53 PM

I think Aloe Vera has a good shot but the odds were too good for Miller.

Vaughany · 12-10-10, 05:58 PM

Got Miller but hedged it with the fight to go to decision.

The HOFF · 12-10-10, 06:03 PM

I am very conflicted on this fight. I originally loved Oliveira. He looked good against Escudero, but Efrain was over weight and gassed bad. Efrain did have him down and was pounding him in the first round. I wish I could see the video again but don't have it. Miller did not look good in his fight against Bocek, and I thought he lost. But the more I think about it the more I like Miller. He has the wrestling to be able to control Oliveira and take him down. I just don't know about this one.

Vrakas · 12-10-10, 06:04 PM

miller is the better striker and his ground game is very good.miller is the underdog so he is the best bet on the card.

rocky mattioli · 12-10-10, 06:06 PM

i thought bocek won the miller fight,also...but bocek`s probably a better pure "wrestler" than oliveira...

+204. Was a few days ago on 5dimes.

sundin4prez · 12-10-10, 09:15 PM

yep right here

BIGDAY · 12-10-10, 09:22 PM

I'm on Miller +115 for 2 Units! I just feal like this fight is as close to a PK as any I've seen. I believe Popularity is in the favor of Oliveira which is driving the value of Miller higher imo. Should be a great fight.

Kaladarus · 12-10-10, 09:37 PM

They are both excellent on the ground and have good submissions. I don't think either of them can put the other in serious danger and finish this fight. Like Hoff has stated Miller is likely to control Oliviera and therefore secure a decision victory. It should be a good fight, but I got to give a small edge to Miller and at +odds it should be an easy play.

Me too. I'm with you Lasker, I've Got 1 Unit on Oliveira.

Poppa Catfish · 12-10-10, 11:34 PM

I'm on Oliveira as well.

JuicedUp · 12-11-10, 12:08 AM

Im rolling with Charles Oliveira as well. He is the real deal.

vassman86 · 12-11-10, 02:48 AM

I like Oliviera, but haven't made up my mind on that fight yet. Miller knows what to do in the octagon, and can grind out a decision.

Kaladarus · 12-11-10, 12:58 PM

What's going on with the Miller line it just shot up to +158 and near that area on several sites.

I have also noticed this, the line has continued to rise despite the fact that most ppl are betting on Miller.

Vaughany · 12-11-10, 01:23 PM

Yee just got the arb...put 15.3 units on Miller at +153 on pinnacle and 20 units on Oliveira at -130 on stan james so guaranteed 3.5 units profit if Miller wins and over stake of 35.3 units back if Oliveira wins.

Yes, but I stopped posting as much in the soccer forum, its not worth it. You hardly get any appreciation or response. Think I´ll be hanging here more now, there are some solid guys around here, lots of knowledge.

Mr.Kitty · 12-11-10, 05:57 PM

There is a rumour going around on the web that Jim Miller woke up this morning feeling sick, and thats why the odds on him has gone up. There was a thread about this on the sherdog forum but looks like they closed it. Nothing is confirmed.

BIGDAY · 12-11-10, 06:21 PM

These line changes are nuts!

BIGDAY · 12-11-10, 06:23 PM

Kos is as high as +435. That's to be expected as big money rolls in on St Pierre.

jacktheknife · 12-11-10, 06:55 PM

Was wondering what happened. Got +150 while I was in town. Figured there might be something, but said **** it and jumped on it for 4u. If he's really ill, the docs will probably cancel and if not then god bless Sherdog rumor monkeys.

WIZARDOFBEANTOWN · 12-11-10, 10:59 PM
