UFC FIGHT NIGHT 14 - July 19th, Las Vegas, NV

[The Sponge]

Kick is this any help?

"Affliction Banned," presented by Affliction Entertainment, became so stacked with talent that it had to be separated into two live shows produced for broadcast. The night's activities will kick off with a one-hour, free live telecast on FSN (Fox Sports Net) in the United States and on The Fight Network in Canada starting at 5 PM Pacific (8 PM/ET), dubbed "Affliction Live." Following that is "Affliction Banned" -- five incredible fights on pay-per-view starting at 6 PM/PT (9 PM/ET) via iN DEMAND, TVN, Shaw Communications, Viewers Choice Canada, DirecTV, DISH Network, Bell ExpressVue and Star Choice in the United States and Canada for a suggested retail price of $39.95.

Anthony Johnson beat Kevin Burns $1.36 *6.5 Joe Rogans :scared :scared :scared :scared



Obviously the big play is Johnson, but I just got a funny feeling that it will be an underdog night in Vegas.

I am staying well away from this fight. Johnson has great hands but he got handled on the ground by Clementi who was around 15 pounds lighter. I give Johson credit as he took that fight on 2 day's notice. Maybe that is why he ran out of gas.

Good luck.

there are two favorites i'm looking at, cain over o'brian and markham over farber.

cain is the better wrestler and has a collegiate win over jake and moreover has the better striking, but i still don't like him being such a large favorite.

i don't know much about farber other than his resume is full of tomatoe cans and he doesn't appear to have much striking power, which is markham's main bugaboo.

o`brien didn`t look particularly impressive in his win over herring,imo....

he was just good enough of a wrestler to keep herring on his back....he didn`t appear to have much else...

velasquez is probably the better wrestler,given his decorated career,so,i don`t know where that leaves o`brien....

aside from dolloway and velasquez,there was one more decorated wrestler on that az st team that is involved in mma...

his name`s ryan "darth" bader.....and i think he`s undefeated...

that was a nice little wrestling team...

 

[muhr]

i was about to bet on cain, but he's moved about 50 cents since i posted a short time ago. if he gets back to -260 i'll follow through.

[layinwood]

Frankie Edgar -143 1.5units
Jesse Taylor +126 .5unit


I can't wait to see Silva at 205. Saying that, I think he wins early in the first. His striking is spot on. I'm most interested to see if the fight out of the clinch much. Franklin thought he was strong enough to fight with Silva in the clinch and he paid dearly for it. Irving has stated he wouldn't mind fighting in the clinch with Silva, I think he's crazy for it. Silva is long even for a 205er.

Shocked and a bit worried to see so many on Hermes tonight. One of my biggest plays of the year so far is on Frankie tonight at -140 :shrug: :shrug:
