UFN 82 this weekend, excited to see wonderboy fight hendricks, I think he'll have a tough time defending against the takedowns from johny, but he'll have a huge advantage on the feet, Only worry there is if the threat of hendricks takedown's make him tentative. I'm glad this is 5 rounds though, tempted to play johny by decision and wonderboy by ko/tko. I want to take nelson by ko as well, but the price is fairly steep (1.9) I'm not overly impressed with rosholt's last few fights, struve was a good win but he is a shadow of his former self. rosholt by decision could easily hit as well, but that is a short price too. roy's getting pretty old now, and rosholt might not of even hit his prime yet. tough fight to call.
I'm having a difficult time seeing feijaio beet OSP who has a big wrestling advantage, there's the off chance he get's a KO but that's his only way, hopefully he has an improved gas tank or it's going to be a rough night for him. I like Burkman in the battle of the over the hill vets, that might be a loser retires fight. Bendeviedez v makovsky is going under the radar a bit, zack will likely get a title shot if he wins, but I hear joeB was training with dillishaw and ludwig for this, and not at team alpha male. joeB should get the win though.

You like Big Country in this Razz he ain't beat anyone decent for a long time.
Scoggins and Makovsky look worth a bet at the prices for me. My trixie Lobov Spencer Burkman |

Well done Razz some good picks.
Awesome by Wonderboy reminded me of Machida destroying Rashad. |

I wasn't that confident in nelson due to his age, but I was more fading rosholt, who just doesn't seem to have much potential anymore, all in all a terrible fight with hardly any action.
What a performance by Wonderboy though, outstanding finish and he should definitely get the next shot, I'd take him as a fav tbh. can't wait to see that, His stasnd up really is on another planet compared to almost everyone else in the UFC, that combined with lawler's very hittable chin, I can see him winning the belt by KO. His takedown defense looked on point against one of the best wrestlers in the division, and he didn't let the threat of the takedown affect his striking looked relaxed and not phased by the occasion as well, which is extremely impressive as hendricks has never been tko'd before. The rest of the card was a bit underwhelming, cirkunov fight was decent, and benavidez looked as good as ever guess he's next in line for a title shot after cejudo, this will be his 3rd shot at the belt if they make that fight a bit further down the line. Nice to see pyle get the win, awesome finish by him, not bad for a 40 year old! |

http://www.sherdog.com/blog/UFC-Fight-Night-Hendricks-vs-Thompson-PostFight-Press-Conference-Video-99807 there's the post fight press conference from earlier, Hendricks is blaming his teamates because Thompson didn't move like he thought he would, bit strange.

good times ahead right now thats for sure, if im honest id rather see thompson get the shot at Lawler then Woodley, he just made short work of a former champ and a guy who before the fight had never been finished, but we all know it will probs be a condit v lawler rematch after the fight they had were i thought condit won myself but, just looked up that thompson now has a 6 win streak in ufc, alot of people including myself didnt see him beating big riggs but he stamped his name up their for a shout at a title shot cant wait to see who he fights next tho i will be lumping on him whoever it is

Thompson is 6.00 to have the WW title at the end of the year, I think it's worth a bet, as he could well get the next shot, and even if he doesn't he'll have a chance for either a title shot later in the year or a number 1 contender fight in the meantime. But honestly I wouldn't be surprised if he gets the shot, It will probably be at UFC 200 so their's that to consider. because it's likely UFC 200 where lawler's next defense will be, I can see ufc skipping woodley's chance due to his poor name recognition.
Also Rumble is at 8.0 to hold the LHW belt at the end of 2016 that's good price as well imo, he's guaranteed the next shot unless cormier beats jones setting up a trilogy. but that seems unlikely and worth the risk. jones is 1.3 vs DC. can see this being good for a trade. I took both of these and hope to green out on them later in the year. |

think your right reg thompson that looks a cracking price to me! Woodley is easy to pass over like you say. The fly in the ointment is if they somehow bring back gap for ufc 200.
Got to think jones beats courmier again which would be good news for your rumble bet, as courmier did not seem very eager to face rumble again on one of the ufc events he was commentating on recently. Rumble has always been seen by many as the best chance of someone beating jones. That one shot power he has can beat anyone. |

What is going on with tonights Kimbo v DaDa fight? The odds just keep on drifting which I dont understand. While Kimbo is extremely flawed fighter, this DaDa guy looks complete clown in comparison so odds getting higher and higher for Kimbo seems bizarre. Is there a rumor Kimbo gonna take a dive?
|
|
By:
yeah DC aint getting any younger either, Rumble's entering his prime.
The kimbo dada odds shift was caused by 4 guys in vegas, they walked into one of the casino's and kept max betting the line al the way to evens apparently. altogether it was confirmed to be at least 20k, probably like 40k altogether. but as bellator betting is extremely niche and fairly new, an amount like that will flip the line completely. I think it was areber's but who knows. yeah there's loads of rumours about a fix but I don't think they are credible. kimbo trains at a very reputable camp, I don't think he'd burn bridges like that. dada is simply an awfull fighter with ZERO(i don't use that word lightly either) ground game, he got taken down and mounted instantly against a fighter with a 0-6 record lol. he's a backyard brawler who has a rivalry with kimbo as they used to be firends and come from the same street fighting background. dada has power and has a size advantage but kimbo should win this easily. I can't believe Ken shamrock is fighting royce gracie again lol!! royce is 49, ken's like 53 haha, at near evens I gotta take shamrock even. I would not recommend tailing this though haha. but with a big size advantage a big striking advantage he should win. only concern is gassing out. I don't think royce can sub him otherwise. I'm more excited to see this fight than lot's of ufc cards lol |

By:
was gonna start a threa dabout the shamrock fight
 madness that they are fighting at this age lol about kimbo tho im sure dada used to be kimbos bodyguard and i cant see kimbo taking dada to the ground they gonna stand and bang and if they do 1 of them will drop, dada has made alot of claims about kimbo tonight we will see if he can hang with him, there was alot of rumours about kimbo and shamrocks fight beeing fixed altho i just couldnt see it myself they had alot of bad blood but only the fighters will really know the truth, my moneys got to be on gracie but the A trilogy is happening and 20 years too late if im honest lol |

By:

|
By:
well shamrock up next lol wont take much to beat that, how long untill gracie pulls guard lol
|
|
By:
gracie wins but looks controversial as it looked like shamrock was hit with a low blow just before he was ground and pounded
|
|
By:
god this was embarrasing haha, kimbo dada should never fight again...wtf was the ref doing in sham/royce...awfull..
|
|
By:
that ref has to be 1 of the worst ever should be banned from main events and dada and kimbo should go back to the hood was a good event up untill last 2 fights
|
|
By:
dada looked like hes been training at kfc looked gassed in round 1 ive seen sumo wrestlers move faster
|
|
By:
big john should of reffed it.. why wouldn't they get a well known one at least, lost my kimbo winnings on that and a bit more, nearly impossible to predict gracie by tko in rnd 1 as a result.. ahh well I probably deserve itt for betting these 2 fights in the first place..
|
|
By:
defo mate dunno that ref was tbh never seen him before must of been his first main event and he sure as hell messed it up big time
|
|
By:
can't believe dada escaped from mount! even more crazy that kimbo gassed from dada holding onto him from mount!! freakshow fighting championship lol
|
|
By:
well at least we got to see Mike tyson 12 cocktails in, commentating on the guillard-campos fight, that was the best thing I've listened to all year, wish he could of done it for the kimbo fight too lol. bizzare night of fights anyway
 |
|
By:
