    Why so much Lesnar/Overeem talk?
    Betting wise I mean. IMO, there are 10 other fights on the is card ALL of which are easier to predict than this circus act. Does anyone really have a beat on this one? I have tried breaking it down and hit dead ends everytime. Overeem has much more experience and superior striking but has questionable TDD and I think is overated in a general sense. Brock has great takedowns and is stronger but lacks striking, submission skills (submitting what was little more than a grappling dummy in a completely gassed Carwin doesn't count) and overall MMA experience (when he got hit by Cain it looked he would have fit in nicely in 1995 UFC). Take into account he hasn't fought in over a year and in the interim had 13 inches of his colon removed due to a serious disease and you've got yourself quite a few things to figure out. Am I missing something? As it stands now i wouldn't touch this one with a 10 meter cattle prod.

      Gustafson, Cerrone, and Ross P should all be victorious IMO.

        i agree with all 3 of those. Even though he lost on the score cards, Ross P. was very impressive with his stand up in his last fight. Take a look at Matt Riddle. Luis Ramos's record is filled to the brim with tomato cans and is only fight in the UFC he was knocked out in the fist round. -130 is too low. All in all, i see a nice bounce back for the Fav's on this card.

          I'm betting almost exclusively on dogs. I like Lesnar, Diaz, Gamburyan as well as Assuncao, Pierson, Matyushenko small plays. I wouldn't play Lesnar or Pierson at current odds though.
