    Alistair Overeem By Submission +1430
    This is not impossible here fellas. Might put 20 or 30 bucks on this prop. Let's not forget uberoid has a nasty guillotine. Thoughts?

    Alistair probably won't hit or even attempt a guillotine while werdum is fresh.
    His best chance is after werdum is rocked, but I don't see that happening either. I think alistair would go for the finish with strikes rather than attempt a sub.

      Highly unlikely. Overeem probably respects Werdum's jiu-jitsu too much to play that game with him.

        I'm split between TKO and Submission after watching some fight footage.

          Agreed.

          Werdum isn't Igor Vovchanchyn or James Thompson, so he's not going to be submitted with a standing guillotine. You either need to be significantly taller than your opponent, or significantly more skilled to pull that off. Overeem's only hope of tapping him with a guillotine would require pulling guard, but he'd have to be a crazy man to even contemplate that.

          I think Overeem's only hope of a submission is if Werdum taps to strikes. Worth it at +1430? Not for me.

            I'd rather take Cormier to win in the 3rd Round at about those odds. I think Monson will be tired in the 3rd, and more likely to be finished then.

              If submission to strikes counts, then hey, who knows, werdum might tap to a knee to the body.

                If Overeem feels like winning by submission he will. Maybe he will decide to put him to sleep since Werdum was wearing his pajamas at the weigh ins.

                Just remember, Overeem has more muscles than a seafood platter.

                  Don't even think about making this. You're just giving the books money.

                        In interviews Overeem also said he wanted to TKO KO Werdum, so it's very unlikely he will try to submit him.

                          Pretty sure Ubereem gets the TKO in this one. I thought about a sub too... but it's highly unlikely to happen against a guy like Werdum.

                              It's not impossible, but you're basically throwing your money away. The only way I could see it happening is if the fight went 3 rounds and Mr. Roids wore him out and got a lucky standing guillotine from Werdum's takedown attempt.

                                There is a chance he could just rip Werdums arms off. I guess that would be a submission.

                                  Except for tapping to strikes, Overeem submitting Werdum is as close to impossible as anything in sports. Werdum's grapping is light years ahead of Overeem's. And a guillotine? No one can catch Werdum in something so easy to counter.

                                    Overeem could guillotine Werdum but he won't even try. Ive seen black belts guillotined by much worse grapplers before.
