bj penn will win. it wont go the distance.

machida will win wither by massivly outscoring ortiz or ortiz will get desperate and walk into a KO/

liddell was great against wanderlei. wanderlei was not able to move in against liddell effectively.

meanwhile jardine totally dominated most of the liddell fight.

liddell waited for the big KO and took way too many leg kicks – ny rnd 2 he was very immobile and the big KO seemed unlikely – great approach and execution by jardine.

wanderlei comes at fighters while jardine is elusive.

problem for jardine (and why i pick wanderlei for this one) is that wanderlei won’t have to be so careful around jardine as liddell. not that jardine doesnt have KO power but IMO not the same as liddell. plus chicks sprawl is as has been said ‘ legendary’ plus further incentive to clsoe the distance for silva is the exc. leg kicks of jardine. We may see some wander-knees

i don’t think silva is as easy to pick apart with leg kicks as liddell.

silva beats jardine 8/10
liddell beats silva 6/10
jardine beats liddell 7/10

round robin pick: wanderlei

Sherk is a monster he got rocked by Hermes Franca and kept bulldozing through and Florian and Franca had some convincing guillotines he got out of. Sherk will get a decision
Tito decision
Wandy 2nd rounf KO
Gouvia 2nd round TKO
Silva 2nd rd. TKO

I think some other people hopped on Mendes, as he is only +500 now.

Dude Mendez is +550? I hate to bet against Tiago but at those odds the underrated and not well known Mendez has great value as a small bet

Thabks for the heads up on that 1, and I still have to lay $ on your Boy Wilson, who you put me on to some time ago….I feel he is the safest bet on this card besides BJ!

I too am eagerly waiting for the Over/Unders on the Penn/Sherk fight….

I really love betting overs and unders in mma because I feel they are pretty easy to predict!
