    Haven't really seen Lentz fight before. Isn't he the fighter considered to have a very boring fighting style by many MMA fans?

      The splotch of blood on the back of his skull might be a clue. And never mind that he was owning dude until then.

        I watched a vid interviewing big John explaining back when they were trying to sanction MMA etc doctors viewed footage of fights to decide what should be legal. Apparently a clip was shown of a fighter taking his opponents back and raining 12-6 elbows down on the back of his neck or something like that.

          Easy to say that after a fight. Especially after a fight he was dominating the whole time until he accepted the elbows. He wasn't really a heavy favorite when he opened either, only like -170.

            Rubbing things in with 20/20 hindsight isn't the coolest thing IMO.

              Thank you very much for your opinion after the fight already ended. It was really, really helpful.

                  If Attonito at -215 is deemed a "heavy favourite" then what is Hominick at -400 to -500 range!?

                    I just think there is more value in other fights. Hominick, Mir, Bones, and Sos seem like surer picks. But yea, my bad.

                        More value but you dont mention the odds? Do you think there is as much value in Hominick at -500 as there is in him at -280 then?

                            Bocek's cardio could be an issue here, depends on Lentz's I guess

                              There is alot more value in Hominick at -280 than at -500, of course. You and I both know that lol. I thought the average odds for that fighter in that fight as it corresponds to the value in that pick was implied.

                                      I hate it when fighters get a win without doing anything. Although I suppose Lentz has been given a few of those.

                                          That fight went exactly opposite of how I thought it would. Bocek LNP while Lentz goes for subs. Wow.

                                            At least the Toronto judges have a clue how to score a fight this time around.

                                              Bocek could have taken more risks and tried to pass guard with more ferocity, but he displayed solid GnP and great submission defense.

                                                That was admittedly arrogant on my part. Not really trying to rub it in although it seems that way.

                                                    I don't think so. Jones will be able to take Machida down pretty easily and GnP. Can't really find a guy that can match Jones's skillset just yet.

                                                        I don't think so. Jones will be able to take Machida down pretty easily and GnP. Can't really find a guy that can match Jones's skillset just yet.
                                                        You're right, if Lyoto lets Jones have control of the fight it's over before it starts.

                                                          Where are the prelims airing? Not seeing it on facebook or spike.

                                                                Until we see Jones take a solid punch, I'll take any solid hitter by KO at +800 or better against him.
