It's FIGHT NIGHT!! Selections for UFC on Fox 11

MD · 04-19-14, 09:56 PM

Cain is the best heavyweight of all time, and there isn't a single fighter who I'd 'cap at less than +300 against him. I thought we were past the point of questioning him.

BIGDAY · 04-19-14, 09:58 PM

Nice work.

I usually love Cerrone. Trust me. I am a huge fan of Cerrone's and pick him quite often.

I just thought Edson was going to get the better of the exchanges tonight and took Edson at -110.
Cerrone proved me wrong with his amazing abilities. Guy is a machine.

Guy is a Zombie:Killer - one of the most exciting in the UFC bet for or against you just cant not like the man.

Yeah, Cain is legit, no doubt about that.

Im not discrediting him or his ability. Hes a good fighter but I just think hes benefiting from a lack of top tier competition, aside from Junior. Antonio Silva, Brock, and big nog are the other meaningful wins. Obviously you have to be good to beat those guys, but not the greatest of all time.

Out of curiosity, who would you put behind cain, and in what order?

I know you put a lot of time into your pix, and I usually pay attention. If I am on the opposite side of you and a couple other guys picks, I usually leave those fights alone. My only play was Cerrone tonight and I got it at +150.

How convenient

You past post your only play, of course you go 1-0 and got a good line

Nice humble brag

This from a guy that says Cain is overrated

Classic SBR

Big day, where did u get Edson at -110? I got cerrone at +150 a few minutes before it started.

Edited for spelling , i dk how to get my phone to stop finishing and changing words

Hey miserable krakerfukker, I was having a discussion about the fights. By no means am I looking for attention in a thread in which I told the OP that I follow his picks from time to time. If you want to feud, we can do it elsewhere, dont contaminate this thread with your garbage. Take care.

The Kraken · 04-19-14, 10:19 PM

BigDay went 0-3, he asked me to change the subject. Quit acting like this thread was anything other than just another thread. All threads in PT turn to shit, clown

sourtwist · 04-19-14, 10:25 PM

He call you up?

Big Day: Hey kraken, can you change the subject in ny thread? That sourtwist guy is bugging me.

Kraken: That knucklehead sourtwist that you are conversing with bothering you?

Big Day: yup, you betcha. I cant stop talking mma, can you jump in and change the subject? Tell him hes a dikkhead for complimenting my mma expertise while you're at it.

Krakerdikk: I'll blow you any day, big day. I got you.

Actually missed when he was +115.
Cerrone was the fav to start. Money came in on Barboza.

Mma lines can move a ton.

sourtwist · 04-19-14, 10:37 PM

Good luck next week. Who you got for the main?

BIGDAY · 04-19-14, 10:39 PM

I have Joey B & Phil Davis so far for next week.

Not touching the main event.

Best of luck.

Cain > Fedor > Nogueira > Dos Santos > Cro Cop.

Fedor's résumé is more impressive than Cain's, currently, but the difference in skill and ability is too big for me to ignore. Fedor is as skilled and well rounded as fighters get, but Cain's game is too overwhelming; he may not have the grace or fundamental technique of Fedor, but his effectiveness is on an entirely different level. When it comes to clinching against the fence, he's the best I've ever seen, and certainly ranks highly in wrestling and cardio, also. His striking isn't elite in a technical sense, but it's extremely effective when combined with his clinch and takedown game.

No way DC is more than a +300 dog against Cain, you're dreaming.

The Kraken · 04-20-14, 01:01 AM

Cain's cardio is unlike any other fighters ever. He brings such an amazing intensity non stop that I believe the only way to beat him is finish him early. HW's tire easily yet that is a major strength of his.
