Diaz/Condit!! 5 rounds of non stop fight of the night awesomeness!!! where both guys are coming to try and take the other one out, i gotta go with Diaz, his boxing is on another level, he just has to be careful of the first couple of rounds where Condit is going to be the most dangerous and his knock-out power which could cause Diaz problems if he isn't to careful. I think Carlos is going to be utilising a lot of leg kicks as we have seen Diaz hit by them before even though it's never stopped him winning, I'm not sure Carlos will be able to take Diaz down either and even if he does Nick should be able to control the tempo on the ground or choose to get back up.
I cant wait to see the extra 2 rounds as well and who's cardio will come out on top, logic says Diaz, but Carlos has fantastic cardio too, i think Condit may underestimate Nick's punching power, and the sheer amount of punches Diaz throws can quickly overwhelm any fighter, Condit will probably fire back with huge power punches but those i can see wearing him out over the course of the fight.
Werdum vs Nelson will be very interesting, I'm leaning towards Werdum but I think it will be to close to call so I'm leaving this. i can't see koscheck losing to pierce, so i might have a small bet on that .
a good bet I've noticed is scot jorgensen vs renan barao at 5/1 with sportingbet to be fight of the night, worth a bet if Diaz v Condit ends quickly or is a complete whitewash for 1 guy.

fwiw Big Roy looks like he has shifted a bit of timber round the middle might be one guy that wont mind being in werdums guard
|
|
By:
diaz by tko and koscheck for me, was gonna go for werdum too, but think I might avoid that one now
|
|
By:
Barao is a beast and will give Cruz a serious fight. Awesome power in his hands and very slick submissions.
|
|
By:
im having a larl dabble on big roy ko of the night at 14s,never really rated werdum,think hes a bit heartless and roy packs serious power and will keep swinging till the very last seconds.
kos and diaz should both win. |
|
By:
will betfair screw up the markets this time? or can they refrain from pressing the suspend button hours before the fights?
 anyone know when the prelims start? |
|
By:
any minute now,my sky isnt working,gona have to watch on my laptop tonight,typical,
|
|
By:
starting now on facebook.
|
|
By:
oh yeah ESPN is free for tonight apparently so if you dont subscribe to ESPN normally you should be able to watch tonight for free
|
|
By:
i subscribe to it but my whole sky isnt working,must be something to do with the weather.
There goes my ko of the night bet |
|
By:
woah steve thompson with an amazing headkick ko, amazing technique
|
|
By:
nice finish from matt brown
|
|
By:
figueroa trying to milk some extra points from the low blows
|
|
By:
well it worked, lol, but i still think Caceres is going to win, whether he finishes him or not
|
|
By:
2 points was too far, im sure the blows took a lot out of him but that should be 1 point maximum for caceres, i reckon it'll be 28-27 to figueroa
|
|
By:
still had it 28-27 for Caceres but the first could of gone either way. If theres a rematch Caceres should just take him down from the start
|
|
By:
yeah i thought leeroy won too, just thought the judges would give it to edwin based on the round 1 knockdown
|
|
By:
yeah can't argue with that and with Dean taking the 2 points he was at a big disadvantage, 1 would of been fair I think.
|
|
By:
the new intro was pretty cool, but it aint no gladiator intro
 |
|
By:
Aye i liked it, anythins better than foxs coverage last week, Jon Jones having to look at his notes every two mins! Cant wait to see these 2 batter eachother(Condit/Diaz)
|
|
By:
yeah you could tell jones had never presented before, but it does take some getting used to lol.
|
|
By:
nice sub by herman, pissed of with betfair though they wouldnt let me cancel a bet i put in on starks before he was in trouble
|
|
By:
Who do ye reckon in this one/
|
|
By:
barao, but no money on it
|
|
By:
barao but jorgensten has been looking good of late, i reckon it'll depend on barao's takedown defence, only a small bet on barao
|
|
By:
barao's got this unless he makes a HUGE mistake imo, owned rnd 1
|
|
By:
i can see barao being champion one day. kos should win this too but no bet for me
|
|
By:
these odds in play are a joke 3.5 for pierce after these close 2 rounds?!!
|
|
By:
i got it at least 1 round each, maybe both for pierce
|
|
By:
missed the first thought Koscheck may of sneaked the 2nd
|
|
By:
probably did in the judges eyes with that takedown
|
|
By:
yep thats why i gave it to him, close fight though
|
|
By:
kos 1.3 at the end of the fight!! stupid price lol, should be 1.75 minimum
|
|
By:
fancy Nelson here but the money seems to of been for Werdum
|
|
By:
after seeing the weigh in im leaning towards nelson now too, he looked a lot more muscular than iv'e seen him before, his price has drifted from 2.2 to 2.6 now could be a decent bet
|
|
By:
Took 2.3 earlier in the week as i thought it was value then, lol.
|
|
By:
that's got to be the biggest mullet in sports today
 |
|
By:
werdum looks a bit gassed
|
|
By:
I can never back against Nelson even when I think he'll lose. He's cost me money yet again but I love him more after every fight. It's just unreal how much damage he can take and still throw bombs that could end the fight. Go Big Country!
|
|
By:
yeah great guy, werdum looked really good though. nelson is a top 10 guy and he dismantled him
