machida/hughes parlay...originally had serra....but hughes looked so much bigger at the weigh in...and serra fights about as often as dem pols pay their taxes....

miller/larson/barry parlay...sonnen supposedly weighed 221 a few weeks ago..and submission guys are wolfsbane for him...larson too strong...barry?...watched brainiac`s video on another site...looks like barry will destroy hague...looks to be in a different class...hague hates leg kicks...barry likes to kick legs...

still playing some on edgar...i`m the only living being playing edgar(literally)...i know,he`s too small...i just think sherk was fortunate to get the decision vs griffin...and if griffin can hang,maybe edgar can...this`ll give you guys something to browbeat me with afterward......

took the polock small at +140...don`t think he`ll get it done,though..

g.l.

[The Brainiac]

I think Krzysztof Soszynski is overrated , Stann is a freaking can , no surprise he won against him . Now what I would like to know how solid Gusmao is ...
He lost a decision to Jon Jones but Jones looked like a beast against Bonnar , sick greco-roman wrestling . I don't believe Soszynski has better wrestling than Jones and his stand up is overrated if somebody actually rates it . I mean come on , he has lost to Reesy Andy who is used as a guy to build up confidence of people like Vera and Hamill when they lose some ...

The Sos-Gusmao fight is a weird one. Some people think Gusmao is amazing and just ran into a train. Others are saying Sos rolls here. I'm not so sure either way.

I'm gonna stay away from that one.

other than being brazilian,gusmao is a ????...his best wins were over mike ciezolowizicz(who also lost to reese andy)....

truthfully,no reason to bet this fight....

Hello men..

I started a new job and have had issues w/ my home computer and those two things have kept me away for too long. ...

I'm back and pledge to post more fades than ever!! :00hour



This one has been in the books for a while:

Machida beat Evans; 8 Units to win 4. (-200)

My record is -2.48 Units since 6/21/08.


Going to a local bar to watch tonight.. i've been having problems ordering PPV events at my house.

I reaaalllllllllly hope Serra turns Hughes' arm inside out. I'm looking forward to that fight and Sherk/Edgar. Edgar is one of if not THE most technical wrestlers in MMA, and he seems to have beefed up a little for Sherk. I think Edgar has been working w/ Martin Rooney who is a great strength and conditioning coach.

:director: GOOD LUCK ALL

Okay im going Evans. I would stay away if this was any other camp but Jacksons. Just seeing how Jackson is salivating thinking of a game plan to beat Machida has me more confident now. Those odds don't hurt either. I know this could be a boring fight but for some reason i just can't wait for it. Hope Rashad doesn't test Machida strength cause he will get thrown all over the joint. Evans is know to be a fighter that goes along with the game plan so we shall see. Nothing bit

George Roop def. Dave Kaplan via split decision (29-28, 27-30, 30-27)

 

[Coach_K]

Just going with one play tonight:
Serra +210 .5 units to win 1.05

 

[crow]

There's some crazy line at 5d for Serra by dec at +1250 and i gave it a bit of a dig; Serra might stun Hughes but fail to finish him; i see this as a 50/50 fight.

I got as well Machida by dec small and the draw.

 

[The Sponge]

George Roop def. Dave Kaplan via split decision (29-28, 27-30, 30-27)

Shit i forgot about this fight. Kaplan is a clown and should be gone after that fight.
