U should start a new thread every few months listing the good upcoming fights.... and this has become a good thread for random news and such... that way we wont keep getting banned.. :mj07:

Michael Bisping and Chris Leben scheduled for UFC 89 -- England, October. Should be a good one, especially w/ Bisping looking better at 185. Bisping sure does get to fight in his home country a bunch. Maybe Dana's got a crush on him.. awww.. how sweet.

GSP has been nominated for an ESPY for BEST FIGHTER. Only mma fighter with a nomination.

Would be awesome to see him steal it from the boxers.

Dont thinks he beats out Mayweather though.

According to wrestlingobserver.com, UFC 89 will be televised for free on Spike.. Hooray!

I love that Dana White gives back to the fans once in a while..... when was the last time u saw a marquee boxing match on cable.. :shrug:

More news....... all federal charges against Leonard Garcia (drugs/weapons and all that good stuff) have been dropped..... still has to deal w/ state charges, but it no longer looks like hes headed to San Quentin or anything like that. :mj07:


More good stuff (very tentative)... kickserv, I know u love Diego Sanchez, and a fight between he and Thiago Alves is reportedly in the works for UFC 89.

Hopefully ill be able to make a big play on Condit. Hes one of my favorite fighters and I lived in Albuquerque through my high school years so I usually cheer for my pseudo-hometown (ive moved around a good bit) boys...

... save Diego Sanchez.. hes a :s7:

All the bouts on the WEC 35 main card are competitive.. I wanna see 'em all. :SIB

CBS is doing a Pound for Pound tournament style opinion bracket:

http://cbs.sportsline.com/mmaboxing/story/10890924

Not sure I agree with there rankings to begin with.

How is Josh #31 and Franklin #32 even more of a joke is Lindland ahead of them.:shrug:

I love Cung Le but to put him at #27 based on what he has done thus far is a joke. He beat Frank Shamrock a good one, but come on.

And Rickson Gracie(#21) was better than Royce(#11).

GW, it truely is a great time for MMA. These orgs going head to head with each other is great for the fans. Hopefully a new generation of fighters is training out there because of all of the exposure and in 5-8 years we will have more fighters than we ever thought. I think the skill level will get to a point that is amazing.

September 6 - Dan Henderson vs. Rousimar Palhares

I was hoping to maybe get some coin down on this kid Palhares in his next fight and whallah he is fighting Henderson. This Palhares kid looked like a JuJizu machine. Henderson never takes a can. He can very well be 0-3 after this match in the ufc. I won't risk it.

You MMA guys- Kickserv, Gardenweasel-Sponge

You MMA guys- Kickserv, Gardenweasel-Sponge

So bottom line, is this MMA stuf a money maker from a capping perspective? You guys ahead on this? Kickserve, I know you know your tennis, what's easier to cap for you?

Kick, the Silva vs Okami needs to come off the board. Okami broke his hand.

Word is it could be Cote. Anyone else hear this?

layin......he only needs one hand...I mean it is just Anderson Silva he isn't very good:142smilie I will edit and take him off "the kickserv list"

Punch.......good question, tennis and mma are my two best sports to handicap. As for #1, no question for me it is MMA, I am way up when it comes to MMA so obviously I'd go with that sport. I really have no idea what kind of action MMA has worldwide, but I'd guess it would be close to boxing in terms of money wagered. In North America I'd say more bet on MMA then boxing, but worldwide boxing probably takes more cash. Tennis is best for "wacky lines", tennis lines are all over the place so that can be an advantage for me. MMA lines have "tightened up" in last two years. Offshore and Nevada have learned more about the sport as it has become more popular. Yet, you can still find massive value on lots of underdogs, but not like 2 or 3 years ago. In tennis and mma I love underdogs, and it has proven to be very very profitable for me in MMA. Also, there are lots of guys on here that know there MMA, so you can pick up lots of useful info on the site. A little tip I use for MMA is opening lines, I like to wager early on lots of fights. It is rare for a line "not to move" from opening to closing. A rule of thumb is if ya like big dogs, wait until fight day, if ya like favs wager early. Of course this is not always the case, but most of the time it works well.

So bottom line......for kickserv no sport better then MMA for cashola. For the life of me I don't know why more people don't wager on MMA....way easier to cap then so many sports out there:shrug:
