    Thought the same thing, Bendo looked great against Miller, I'm not sure Clay is a much of a step up if any for him.

      I think Guida would beat Miller easier than he did Pettis.

        You guys are cracking me up!!!

        Gabe, first off, I have all wagers on a 1-5 Unit basis. I never call them locks and I have less than a hand full of 5 Unit wagers a year on average.

        I'm really just an average Joe that MMA is my most profitable sport. When I have a decent lean I share with a few here on the best forum out there.

        GL guys.

          What I call locks are your equivalent of 5 unit bets. I might start picking based on 1-5 units, too.

          I like to make picks on a lot of fights. If I only picked fights I was really confident about, I would almost never lose. For example, all 4 of the fights I was really confident about for UFC 138 won, and the only two I was a little weary about lost. And out of those 4, I would have only bet on 3 of them, because the juice on Etim wouldn't have been worth a big bet. I would have a better record and make more money, but I wouldn't be having as much fun.

          I don't have any 5 unit plays for UFC on FOX 1, but I would consider Cain a 4.5 unit play. Garza 3.5, possibly 4 units.

                        While I hate to use MMAth this is one of the reasons I have a strong lean on Henderson here. Miller would be -200 against Guida for sure, and Henderson WRECKED him.

                          Jim Miller's nost notable victories are over Gleison Tibau, Charles Oliveira, Mac Danzig, Matt Wiman, and Duane Ludwig.

                          I can see Guida beating all of those guys. Miller hasn't beaten anyone that would make me think he would tool Clay Guida. I don't even know if he can even land a punch against Guida, considering he's never fought anyone with half the movement Guida possesses. I think out of those guys, Wiman would have the best shot against Guida. Miller isn't gonna catch him like he did Oliveira and Ludwig. His only shot would be to grind out a decision.

                          Maybe I'm off, but that's how I see it.

                            Are you listing those Miller wins as bad wins? Not impressed by that list? Couple really good fighters there.

                              Um, no, I'm not. Those are good fighters, all I said is that I don't see any of them beating Clay Guida. I mean, of course I could see them beating Guida, but not easily. I think Guida could beat all those guys. Matt Wiman would probably have the best shot against him.

                              You don't think he can land A PUNCH against Guida? One punch?
                              Did I say I don't think he can, or did I say I don't know if he can?

                              Obviously, he'll be able to hit him, my point implied that you don't know how he will put up with Guida's stand up and movement, since he's never faced anyone similar.

                              Smoking more than weed there, homeboy.
                              Yes, but that has nothing to do with why you're misinterpreting and putting words in my mouth.

                              *edit* my bad, i thought you meant smoking more weed, not more than weed... nope, just Pine OG Kush, my friend! and it is delicious!

                                    I think that JDS will beat Cain. Junior proved he could stop Carwin's takedowns, so he can probably stop Cain's takedowns too. If Cain can't take him down, JDS will win the fight handily with his superior striking.

                                      I would agree that JDS is the superior boxer, but I think Cain can hold his own with him. While JDS has the superior boxing skills, it's Cain who hones the phenomenal kickboxing skills. He can hurt JDS with his kicks, and he wouldn't be afraid to throw 'em, 'cos if JDS catches him and takes him down, then great, he'll out-wrestle him.

                                      Cain is a bigger and better wrestler than Carwin, and I think he would beat Carwin a lot easier than JDS did.

                                        People are way overstating the gap in their boxing skills. JDS has the better offensive boxing but Cain has much better head movement. Also, lets not compare Cain's wrestling to Carwins. Cain was a div 1 NCAA wrestler and had to compete against superior competition such as Cole Konrad. Cain's has incorporated his wrestling perfectly into MMA and is fluid in setting up his take downs with his strikes. We also know that Cain won't gas like Carwin, and will continue to attempt take downs when given the opportunity the as long as the fight goes.

                                            Since people aren't cool with me posting how my bets went after the event is over, I have decided not to share/post them here anymore, but instead to start keeping them in a wordpad file. So, from now on- I will only give my picks. I won't bother you with things you don't care about, like if I made money or lost money, or who I went with in fights I didn't have picked. Personally, it would interest me if all cappers here posted the way I do; it allows you to see how they think on a fight by fight basis, not just the couple they had picked. But apparently that's just me. I won't be adding my betting results to the end of this thread, nor to any other.

                                              If only there were another application that could organize your results into rows and columns, calculate your totals, ROI, etc, automatically.

                                                  I'm old school.

                                                  I picked Mike Pierce for that contest, but I'm taking The Gentleman!

                                                    Yeah, one could really accel at betting if only such an application were to exist... someone should suggest the idea to Microsoft.

So, from now on- I will only give my picks. I won't bother you with things you don't care about, like if I made money or lost money, or who I went with in fights I didn't have picked. Personally, it would interest me if all cappers here posted the way I do; it allows you to see how they think on a fight by fight basis, not just the couple they had picked. But apparently that's just me. I won't be adding my betting results to the end of this thread, nor to any other.
