Barnett/Sergei and Overeem/Silva odds out

**Nick The Greek** · 07-08-11, 05:20 PM

I'll be putting money on Silva at those odds. Overeem's stock went way down for me after that last fight.

When are the fight dates? I'm really tempted to play Sergei @ +200

Still up in the air. Coker said around October I believe.

Both dogs look good at those lines.

Not to me, Im liking both favorites at that price.

**terpkeg** · 07-08-11, 08:40 PM

I like Silva +180 and Rockhold +275

Don't think I'm just over reacting to Werdum fight. Just think that Silva is still reaching the peak of his career and that all of the size Overeem has put on will not help him in this fight as i think he needs to use speed to exploit Silva on the feet. Think with Silva's chin this is his fight to take and should be a slight fav. He will have the cardio advantage as well.

I like the same, Jacare may win but that line is way too high

**v1y** · 07-08-11, 11:35 PM

none look particularly enticing to me.

although, barnett by sub at +150ish would warrant a couple units i think.

**ShogunRua** · 07-09-11, 12:40 AM

That Silva fight should be close. I think Barnett takes down and submits Sergei pretty easily though.

**Vrakas** · 07-09-11, 10:24 AM

these fights should be good.cant wait.

BIG FOOT IS A DOG AFTER OVEREEM WAS GETTING OUT-STRIKED BY WERDUM?

POUND POUND POUND POUND

**Lusty_Argonian** · 07-09-11, 12:09 PM

I actually feel safe with Overeem at -230 against Bigfoot Silva, I feel like dumping 14units on it before it changes.

I'm not touching Barnett or Sergei with a ten foot pole.

**JuicedUp** · 07-09-11, 12:44 PM

Silva is going to grind out a dec here.

**Johan_Haas_** · 07-09-11, 01:28 PM

The odds seems to be right. I don't see any easy value here. I was planning to put money on Silva if he was +200 or above but at this line I am not touching it.

**RaiderNation MMA** · 07-09-11, 04:14 PM

all the people pounding big foot based on overeems last performance will be very dissapointed!

**rocky502** · 07-09-11, 06:10 PM

I could def. see Big Foot grinding out a decision. Never been that impressed w/ Reem. Barnett might be too slick for Sergei, but not touching that one.

**Fiasco01** · 07-09-11, 09:42 PM

Silva at those odds looks really intriguing.

Bigfoot was outstruck by Werdum too.

No he wasn't. Werdum was out-struck (and dropped) by Silva in the first round. Werdum essentially won the second and third by sweeping from bottom, getting takedowns and achieving dominant positions on the ground. Werdum landed some good knees from the clinch in the third, but he was still getting tagged with punches pretty consistently in the stand-up exchanges.

So, if anything, Silva out-struck Werdum. Werdum's grappling won him the fight.

**JAKEPEAVY21** · 07-10-11, 08:50 AM

Barnett and Silva for me

Agreed, I'd be a little surprised if neither won...

**omalley21** · 07-10-11, 11:39 AM

Bigfoot and Barnett. With Bigfoot winning the whole thing.

**Fiasco01** · 07-10-11, 12:22 PM

I think Barnett by Submission will be my large(r) play but like I said I think Silva at those odds looks very solid...just depends on the dates for these fights.

**clarkd32** · 07-10-11, 08:20 PM

i'll take my shot on both underdogs... although i don't know much yet about barnett's opp.

should be some pretty good fights.. anxious to see how the rest of the card shapes up.

Yup, and Barnett looked really good against Rodgers.

Sergei has pretty much nothing off of his back period. He can put up a better fight than Rogers, but he probably suffers a similar fate.

**GoldRush7** · 07-11-11, 09:02 AM

I actually like bigfoot at those odds..
