    A bout between top middleweight contenders Chris Weidman and Tim Boetsch has been added to the fight card of UFC 155, promotion officials announced on Friday. UFC 155 takes place December 29, 2012 and is headlined by a heavyweight championship rematc


    Might as well post something constructive for my first (EDIT: second?) post.

    From my perspective, Weidman winning is effectively a formality. Thoughts?

      Weidman's got a huge hype train behind him. The odds are going to be crazy skewed.

        They'll be skewed because Boetsch's string of luck will be stretched across the rails. Not exactly meeting the immovable object.

          It does suck that Weidman's line is going to likely be similar to what you usually see from a Bones Jones line. Only real value will probably be as parlay fodder unless you wanna go all in on him.

            Given that Boetsch is like a middleweight version of Dan Hardy, I wouldn't have much of an issue going all-in on Weidman. Weidman is as close to a sure-thing as I've seen since JDS/Mir. I don't all-in often, however, and my last all-in was on Weidman to finish Munoz, so I may be a bit biased towards him.

                I'll be very curious to se where the line comes out at. Hoping the books might throw us a bone to start then let the money dictate how ridiculous the line will likely get.

                  I would take Weidman at -300.

                  Anyone can defeat a training camp injured Lombard during that fight.

                    He got his ass kicked by an injured Lombard. Judges rewarded him a gift decision.

                      lombard won that fight whether he kicked his ass or not he won that fight. I'm still bitter about that decision can't wait for lombard vs palhares

                        Tim Boetsch is a can. He's just there to improve Weidman's record and make him more marketable for a title fight.

                                    That's what I figured after I asked. I'm sorry. I'll be more careful in future.

                                          everything posted in this thread is exactly what was said about boetsch's fights with lombard and okami.

                                          /this time boetsch is losing!
