    I really like Cheick Kongo at -175. He is a talented beast of a man who last beat Mikro Cro Cop.

    I would totally agree with you harsh except I have no idea who is jake o brian is. I am sure arlofski is going to beat anybody though, and remake himself as a contender.

    I think if anyone can beat A Silva, Henderson is the perfect guy. He should be able to take him down and keep him there. He also has an iron chin and has been hit with a ton of big shots in his career. That being said, this isn't a fight he needs to stand there and show how tough he is or it could be a long night.

    Luke Cummo, the TUF 2 runner up is also scheduled to take on Luigi Fioravanti. Here's an interview: http://www.submittomma.com/articles/...interview.html

    That could be an interesting fight. Both guys like to bang. Usually when that happens, Cummo wins.

    I think Henderson is more likely to win also. But this one is close.

    I think these two are good bets for those that want to put down some bucks.

    Jorge Gurgel -170

    Dan Henderson +135

    Thought Henderson would win. But can't believe how good Silva was. Here is a review of the event: http://www.submittomma.com/articles/ufc_82_review.html

    I'm wondering if there is anyone in the middleweight division that has a chance to even come close to him at this point.

    Silva suprised me. I had 5 bets that night and he's the only one I lost so it was not all bad.

    That division isn't the strongest, but as always it'll be a matter of time before somebody gets a punch in or sub in on him. Nobody is unbeatable.
