UFC 66 - Las Vegas, Nevada...Dec 30th 2006

[kickserv]

ok I'll get right to it:


Jason MacDonald beat Chris Leben $2.90 (+190)



ya gotta be insane not to take MacDonald in this fight......$2.90


what a sweeeeeeeeeeeeet price that is :scared :scared :scared

 

[kickserv]

also..........the price on Tito looks mighty tasty:SIB

 

[layinwood]

Kick, I'll be on Tito as well. Just trying to figure out how much I'll put on him. I'll post my reasons tomorrow but for the money I think he's a good bet.

 

[gardenweasel]

i`m on chuck.....i`m anxious to see your rationale,layin`.....

 

[1837]

no bets yet but stong lean on:

Chuck to "destroy" Tito
Jardine for the upset
De Souza

 

[layinwood]

GW, first before anything else if I take Tito it will be because of the odds. I still feel like Chuck will win but I feel like I'm getting good odds on Tito.

1. It's hard to look at their first fight and say look what happened because Tito got the famous Chuck eye poke and from there it was over. I'm not saying Chuck wouldn't have won that fight, I'm just saying it's hard to overcome a Chuck eye poke.

2. People keep commenting on how Tito has looked since he's been back. It's hard to say because agaisnt Forrest he was still recovering from knee surgery. Against Ken, well what else was he supposed to do.

3. For some reason in their last fight Couture didn't try to take chuck down, he tried to stand with him. Babalu tried to stand with Chuck. Tito won't and his takedown skills are very high. He's very strong and if he can get into Chuck I think he can take him down. We all know that in the UFC if you can get takedowns with nothing else you can win(ie Koscheck).

4. Most important factor to me, Tito is a very good fighter. His last two losses have been to Chuck and Randy. The fight against Randy was when Randy had cut down from HW and it was a very tough test for Tito. He lost a decision and was probably too big headed going into the fight. Again, the fight against Chuck IMO could have been very different w/out the eye poke. Tito has beat some of the very best in the world and he's still young. If his desire and passion is there then this will be a very good fight.

5. +242 Big reason as well.

thanks for getting back to me....

 

[gardenweasel]

aside from liddell large,i`m playing a parlay....

arlovski/bisping/gomi(in pride...he could lose,but he`s been incredibly profitable for me)....laying 1 to win 1.15......

g.l.

If you get a chance weasal check out Lideel and Tito on Steven Smith tonight. You have to catch the rerun. Nice to see someone have them on. Both guys look ready to go.

wish i had seen it......damn....thanks for the heads up anyway,spongy...

the pride card is a monster...

i think i`ll take a small play on big nog with at -120.......


and i happen to love mark hunt matched up with fedor...at least from a fans point of view......hunt is tougher`n rosie o`donut....and just as nasty...
looks like a fedor win...but he could certainly have some anxious moments with a striker like hunt...who has an iron chin...

fedor loves to mix it up...but has a tendency to break up.....

and from a gambling perspective....i know fedor`s the god of mma.....but,at better than 6 to 1?.....i know fedor`s.....well,fedor....but,hunt is a very scary hombre........

he`s a rock the boat kinda` guy...maybe a case of budweiser?..(what`s a case run,20/25 bucks?)..

should be a fantastic fight....

I took a parlay of griiffith, rua, and yoshida with calzaghe thrown in. lay -120 to win 100 and the beautiful thing is calzaghe is weeks away, if the first three hit I can lay off small because manfredo is +1000.

 

[layinwood]

I'm looking forward to seeing them announce Crocop is with the UFC, hopefully they will bring him into the cage and we can see Silvia crap his pants. Can you say left high kick Tim. hahahhaha

 

[layinwood]

Oh man, I just watched the Ortiz Liddell 1 and I think I may not do anything on the fight at all. I think he lost when he did because of the eye poke BUT he never did anything to Chuck. Tried to take him down once and didn't even come close. Hit Chuck once but wasn't anything special. I'm watching the line, if it moves down tomorrow evening then I'll go ahead and play on Tito. If not, I'm not touching it.

I like the parlays, I think that might be the majority of my bets. Amhlihaus, I like yours except for Forrest. I think he could potentially kill you parlay. To me that fight is 50/50 and because of the odds Jardine is a good bet.

Guys that will for sure be in my parlay/s, Arvloski, Bisping, Rua, Rua, Rua(he's my favorite fighter and I think he will be the best LHW in the world in 2 more years, hes still young), Fedor, Fujita, Gomi, and maybe Nob but only a st8 bet. I think he beats Barnett but Barnett has had a hell of a year.

 

[layinwood]

Sorry for so many post but we have IFL tonight and really like Renzo.


Renzo Gracie -137 2units

I agree on Renzo.

Also love MIKE CIESNOLEVICZ(-170) OVER AARON STARK--- This should be very one-sided. He is a Miletich guy coming off a nice choke win in November.

Good Luck.

Didn't mean to hijack your thread or anything, just not many true MMA fans out there so they all go together.

I do 100% agree with you on Jason Macdonald.
I thought he would be a slight fav.

 

[kickserv]

no you guys aren't hijacking the thread at all...it's no problem.......was just funny when I scrolled down and saw all the non UFC stuff :mj07:




but remember.......it is all about GSP....don't anybody every forget that :SIB

 

[Deucer]

Going with home town boy from Red Deer, Alberta
Jason MacDonald +191 @Pinny
He's tough as nails !!!!!!!!!
I think he'll beat Leben by Sub.
GLTA

 

[amhlilhaus]

I think forrest has to be ko'd or submitted to lose to someone like jardine, it's sad to say but it's part of handicapping. he beat tito imo but they wanted him rematched with chuck, they have it and from what I've read around the net is tito could never take down chuck when they trained and couldn't keep him down if he did do it. if the line falls enough I'll put on chuck.
