Straight from Ariel Helwani.
This is getting totally insane. Fuck, I had a big bet going on Belcher too.

if belcher gets boestch i hope the lines makers sorely underestimate belcher like they did against palhares! layin heavy paint on belcher if so..

dude, relax, haha...I think all CTM was saying is that no one's going to be throwing down the amount of money it would take to even see anything close to a sizeable profit on a -900 line.
Plus, yeah, Jones will most likely finish him quickly but anyone can get tagged at any time. Henderson was def a dangerous opponent for that very reason. And Machida actually looked the best of anyone until he got choked out on his feet...The Sonnen fight would be interesting if he could get Jones down, but I don't see that happening...even if he got him down he'd just pop right back up...I really don't see a worthy opponent out there for him. I mean guys like Sho-Gun aren't cans but he's knocking them down like they are...he's already cleared out the division...

Saw-Man,
I think it's just the punching power. Jones doesn't get hit very often. So I think Vegas is just looking at the knockout power of henderson, which is off the charts, as the most dangerous thing either Hendo or Vitor has to offer. Plus, Jones can't just take Henderson down at will, like he can Vitor, so with the Henderson fight we're pretty much at least guaranteed a stand-up fight. That said, however, I mean, we're both splitting hairs. A -600 line isn't giving Hendo much of a shot either, obviously.
