Bellator Fighting Championships 19: May 20

[SixFive]

i certainly believe askren will win...but at 6-1,after seeing him get himself into a few submission situations early vs thomas,i think laying a flat 6-1 is a horrible idea....

just my opinion...

is it ever a good idea?

 

[gardenweasel]

is it ever a good idea?

we`re on the same page,bud....i very seldom lay much above 2-1....verrry seldom...

Thanks Red, that is very kind of you and helpful. I am biased about the Askren fight tonight as I grew up with him, so not going to wager, but truly appreciate the 5 Dimes suggestion. Good luck to anyone who bets tonight, I have this feeling the favorites look tasty tonight so it will probably be upset Thursday.

Most welcome, Coach K...:mj06:

I have some family in the Milwaukee area, where do you call home now?

i heard he crapped out playing poker...

ugh
sorry to hear that
guy knows his fights

OK
Askren-Thomas II

 

[gardenweasel]

ugh
sorry to hear that

OK
Askren-Thomas II

just kidding...lol...trying to smoke him out....but he has mentioned that poker inflicted much more than a flesh wound on his interbnet account....

i`m sure he`ll be around again shortly...

 

[gardenweasel]

pretty wild 1st round...good fight

 

[Ghost Kid]

Askren rnd 1
Thomas fighting with anger
not too smart

 

[Ghost Kid]

Thomas useless so far
but to be fair he fighting one of the greatest college wrestlers ever (by reports)

 

[gardenweasel]

big rd 2 askren...this guy has to get off the mat when he has a chance...

 

[Ghost Kid]

Thomas is not strong enough to keep him off
and he is just diving for legs and necks
really not a likely path to victory

 

[Ghost Kid]

damn Askren cool as a cucumber
ends up on top over and over again
him and hornbuckle going to be VERY interesting on the ground

 

[gardenweasel]

hornbuckle will be much more dangerous than thomas...

looking forward to that one...

 

[Ghost Kid]

easy 3 to zero

 

[Ghost Kid]

hornbuckle will be much more dangerous than thomas...

looking forward to that one...

two different levels completely
hornbuckle is zen off his back
thomas is like a panicking baby
askren got an easy route to the finals
NO QUESTION he would have beaten Thomas the first fight

liked the story about Hornbuckle helping the kid with leukemia

Hornbuckle seems like a great guy...Askren not so much....I think I will root for Dan
