seen another bet that i think is pretty good value. hughes vs koscheck not to go the distance at 1.57 with padd power and sky  bet
Report sol_dave September 24, 2011 1:56 PM BST
Hughes and Rampage both great vaue imo
Report mad4stella1 September 24, 2011 8:09 PM BST
Gonna have a small bet on Hughes (sentimental reasons i think) honestly think Koscheck looked to big and strong for a aging hughes at the weigh ins but if he shows a little of that form from years back he could catch Koscheck out. (plus i dont like Koscheck much either so more a routing for Hughes bet than anything else lol)

I got Browne and Broughton not to go the distance earlier today on Laddies at 1.50... thought that was great value.  These are two big guys.  Browne hits hard and will hopefully get a first round KO.

Also liked bet for Jones and Rampage to last longer than 12.5 mins on Laddies at 7/5.

mizugaki looked impressive, nice body shots and dirty boxing, he looks as though he could fight at 125 when ufc brings in that division next year

Hard some money on Mizugaki across a few accumulators... well happy with that result.  Some nice body shots.  Don't usually get sparked out at those weight classes but it was too much for Cole.

form man boxing fans cant complain when you look at the state of there heavyweight division, mma's HW's have never been so strong. as for the stamina, there's nothing wrong with their fitness, do you have any idea how much energy is involved in grappling? a lot more than striking, add to that the altitude of where they are fighting your gonna get some tired dudes. also they are putting a lot more effort in the transitions, than boxers do just standing up.

Over 2.5 rounds 6/4 :))

Rashasd would be tougher for his KO power and quicker takedowns but would expect a similar result.

Would pefer Shogun to fight him after...so routing for Shogun in the Hendo fight. will be a far different Shogun. We all know how he need the first fight back after a layoff.

suppose the REAL fight we'd all love to see is Anderson vs Jones at 205. Forget the GSP fight......Silva vs Jones would be epic.
Report razz September 25, 2011 5:24 AM BST
just remembered my Bets on koscheck with paddypower small green overall now. i think rashad has a worse chance than rampage, he wont be strong enough to wrestle with jones imo, i'd rather see machida fight jones, that could be an interesting match but appart from machida i cant see anyone taking that belt anytime soon.

razz and particularly mehmet j mook - thanks guys for stearing me to another winner. Didn't get matched at the higher bids I put in, but Kos @1.25 was good enough with such obvious confidence. Nice how he paid tribute to Hughes and was so humble in victory, very nice to witness.

Cheers,

No worries swinging pick,he got ko of the night too!!! Hope u had a larl bit on that?!

ELG- Evans has more chance cos of his ko power???? More than the rampage?! No way! Rampage was the only one with half a chance as I said a while back,his body core is the strongest in the UFC which meant he wouldn't be getting tossed around by bones,unfortunately jones was better at everything else too and uses his reach superbly,no one in the LHW division has any chance whatsoever!! Jones is gona keep improving too.
Report SwingingPick September 26, 2011 9:32 AM BST
mehmet j mook - I know you were also quite confident about the ko, but since it was 1.50 ante-post, no I didn't unfortunately go that way, I just wanted a steady return and the 1.25 was fine, in the end. Hope you had a good win, also.

Thanks again,
