    What will the odds be for Fedor vs. Bigfoot?

    Fedor -250? What do you guys think?

    It'd be one of the only times I'd bet a single fight at such a high price if the line was -250 lol. I'd say closer to -450 at best.

    Fedor usually opens -500 or more and I don't think that will change this fight. Like Ecco says -250 would be a steal.

    So if it was at -250 you'd bet the house on Fedor?

    Fedor -400. I'd never bet the house on Fedor. Fedor is very beatable and in my opinion lucky to be in top 5 MMA heavyweights.

    I guess getting dropped and almost finished by Kyle didn't do much for Bigfoot in terms of odds.

    Right, and I doubt Fedor being submitted by a BJJ world champion will hurt him in the eyes of Vegas. Not like Bigfoot can duplicate that, sure fire that Fedor can do better than Kyle.

    Not too long ago you could get Fedor at under -400 on fight night against Arlovski and Tim Sylvia. While AA and Sylvia were more highly regarded coming out of UFC, Fedor is coming off a loss and the feeling of invincablity isnt there anymore. Also, Fedor got banged around a bit by Brett Rodgers. I would be on Silva over +400 I would think at first glance. But, I expect the line to be around -350.


    I think a more interesting question is what will Barnett Arlovski line be if this fight actual takes place.

    Well, i guess Silva's performance against Kyle will drive the line up some. I have yet to see this fight, but I hear he was not very impressive.

    You should definitely watch the fight. The first round was all Kyle!

    Arrogant as in... big-headed? I always assumed nature played a role in that. I wasn't aware that an ego could literally inflate one's head. I learn something new in every post you make.

    lol he has Gigantism

    Gigantism is abnormally large growth due to an excess of growth hormone during childhood, before the bone growth plates have closed.
    I wouldn't bet the house on Fedor no matter what the odds against another ranked heavyweight, because Fedor cuts too easily.

    Fedor -400 at the least probably closer to 600 though.

    Fedor -500. He's not losing to bigfoot. The question is what will the Overeem vs Fedor odds be.

    That really is a good question. And honestly I don't know.. but I'd have to think Fedor would be a slight favorite.

    I believe Overeem will be the favorite; if he isn't at the opener he will be by the closer.

    I think a lot of guys were hurt by betting of Fedor vs Werdum. We all thought his sub defense was too good and that he was virtually unstoppable. That fight was an eye opener to reality.... and it almost felt like a dream (or nightmare to some). I think Fedor is a strong bet in this fight, but don't get sucked in if he's at -500. Bigfoot has a solid chin and a decent sub game himself.

    Can't wait for this. I'll smash Fedor if he's at -250. I guess he opens -400.

    I'm praying for -250... I'd even take -350 to be honest.
