Shogun vs Evans Odds Out

[Coach_K]

Didnt want to post this in news thread so started a new one. Early odds for Shogun vs Evans are out:

Mauricio Rua -250
Rashad Evans +190

They seem pretty spot on. I like Rua in the fight but hard to lay 250 on him.

Worth a shot on Evans. His unorthodox style/speed may give Rua fits.

Ouch, I would say that line is pretty solid. I say that because I wouldn't touch either guy at that price. :mj07:

I do think Shogun wins but Evans could dance for 5 and make it hard to get a convincing win.

I like Rua but not at that price. He is the better striker and ground fighter but, and it is a big but, if Rashad can survive to the championship rounds it could be interesting.

everybody underestimates evans` grappling....they did it vs rampage,too....if it goes to the ground,he`ll be fine vs rua...since when is rua some grappling phenom?...

my problem with evans is his cardio in a 5 round fight....i think he`ll gas at some point...
