UFC 130 : Maynard vs Edgar III

Vaughany · 05-20-11, 08:47 AM

I'd let him in my house for $$$$$$$!

Vaughany · 05-20-11, 04:31 PM

Struve vs Browne...

Basicaly both guys picking Struve because they know nothing about Browne!!

Vaughany · 05-20-11, 04:33 PM

Mir vs Nelson...

Vaughany · 05-20-11, 04:34 PM

Main event...

Ladle · 05-20-11, 05:53 PM

Santiago at +120 on 5dimes.

That line is crying out for my attention. Might have to take the plunge soon.

The HOFF · 05-23-11, 02:34 AM

With Sonnen out indefinitely, I like the idea of the Stann/Santiago winner coaching opposite of Bisping on TUF. Anyone know if Santiago is fluent enough in English?

Squareguy · 05-23-11, 04:22 AM

I thought the CSAC decided to change their mind on Sonnen again? They ruled that there was an error and that he would be able to reapply.

In any case, the CSAC is a total joke...I remember watching the initial hearing where one of the committee members got up and left to get his dry cleaning.

I believe Santiago has good enough English, he's been training in USA for a while. UFC are pushing Stann a lot because of his Marine links and perfect image but problem is you wouldnt have any banter or "sh*t talking" on TUF if u had him as a coach because everybody respects him too much!

funny sh*t!

Demetrious Johnson +130
Miguel Torres -170

Line has gone up and down.

sirchadwick1 · 05-23-11, 08:45 PM

Snagged Mighty Mouse at +155. This is another fight I'm on the fence about, but believe Johnson can win this if he sets the pace and is the aggressor.

Kaladarus · 05-23-11, 09:13 PM

I like Mighty Mouse at this price also.

Vaughany · 05-24-11, 02:14 AM

Would only of taken Mighty Mouse at +200 or better. I think he only wins this by decision if he is going to win so will be taking that.

THE_LOCKSMITH · 05-24-11, 11:51 AM

wow Demetrious Johnson down to even money now

Ladle · 05-24-11, 12:20 PM

I have Torres by submission at +320. Nice accompaniment to Johnson by decision at +260, as I feel they are the two most likely outcomes.

urge2kill · 05-24-11, 08:23 PM

Bunch of new lines up.

THE_LOCKSMITH · 05-25-11, 12:13 AM

can Boetsch test Grove's chin??

I agree with you on the likely outcomes, but not if Torres fights the way he did last fight. Never even attempted to take Buenelos down, which shocked me.

Gotta think this one hits the ground more - Johnson will force it there.

GunShard · 05-25-11, 02:03 AM

Torres looks like a good spot to bet.

What is Johnson's reach? Torres at 76 inch reach.

GunShard · 05-25-11, 02:09 AM

What is Randy Couture's prediction record for UFC 129?

66"

I agree. I was planning on betting mighty mouse as a decent size dog, but getting close to even money its hard to pass up Torres.

Indeed. I'm thinking Torres spends a lot of time on his back searching for the sub. If he can't get it after 15 minutes, the idiot judges will probably give the fight to Johnson, even if he's outworked from the bottom.

Massive value on Boetsch at +140 IMO, I threw in 8/10u on Boetsch. If it wasn't for this being his first fight at 185 lbs it would have been 10/10u without a doubt.

Big time value. Grove's chin stinks and Boetsch definitely has the power to put him to sleep, and the wrestling to keep the fight standing.

That's exactly how I see it too. Boetsch also har some tricky striking and a nasty uppercut special move that Grove will have to be very wary about...

Vaughany · 05-25-11, 08:13 AM

I like The Barbarian at +140 as well, might wait until after weigh-ins though

1nce · 05-25-11, 10:23 AM

Sportingbet.com has props for FOTN, KOTN and SOTN in case anyone is interested. I placed bets on either Torres vs. Johnson (+700) or Alves vs. Story (+800) to be FOTN.

Also have a smaller wager on Boetsch KOTN at +2000.

I'll be on the same, just waiting for these props to come out on some of the other sites first.

sirchadwick1 · 05-25-11, 10:46 AM

Wow those odds are great for FOTN on either fight. I can only hope my book offers something in that range.

I'm also with you guys on the Barbarian at +140.

Very nice odds. I'll take almost anybody who fights Grove to win KO of the Night at +2000.

Will wait to see what Paddy offers and then makes some plays.

True that

As if it wasn't enough that Grove has a glass jaw, he also happens to be 6'6" tall which brings that little extra drama needed to haul in the KOTN bonus, TIMBEEEER!!!!.

LOL. That's actually a very valid point. There's something inherently brilliant about seeing a lanky person get lamped.

Just don't forget that Skyscraper may very well go down here too, although he does have a decent chin... so don't invest too much in the play.

At +2000, I don't need to!
