Hey guys.  This is a busy week for fights.  Titan and UFC on Friday and SF on Saturday.  I just wanted to share my thoughts and leans for this weekend.

Titan should have lines out on Friday afternoon.  Two guys who should walk through their opponents are Mirsad Bektic and Joe Ellenberger.  They will both be big chalk but safe and trustworthy.  Jorge Santiago should prevail in his main event bout but I would like to know what his motivation is at the moment.

UFC in Australia should be an okay card.  I like Jake Hecht over Walburger, Noke over Craig (debut) and Cole Miller at featherweight against another newcomer in Stephen Siler.  Waldburger has been knocked out several times and Noke is fighting at home in a bounce back fight.  Miller has immense experience and is fighting an average guy in Siler.  Miller should get the submission.

I haven't taken a close look at SF yet.  Thomson and Noons should be an entertaining scrap.  I think Daley takes Misaki out.  I will look closer at them all.  Let's cash this weekend.  There are too many fights not to capitalize on.

Odds are up for the UFC and SF.  Low numbers everywhere.  Jake Hecht is -130, Noke is -215 and Miller is -275.  Daley is -280 for Saturday.  

Good luck guys.  Let me know what sticks out to you.

Alves should take this.  However Okami shouldn't have screwed me last weekend.  I think it will be a great fight.  I definitely see a decision which is why I am staying away from this fight.  I may bet on a prop but other then that I just want to see an entertaining battle.  I do think Alves is rededicated and focused at becoming an elite welterweight again.  We'll see though.  There are much better options this weekend.

The numbers on Noke and Miller are creeping up.  Daley's number will probably keep going up as well.  Has anyone noticed McGee's odds? They have been up and down and reversed about four times now.

bodog has court as -120, a slight fav - i like him too, but was pretty impressed with Phillipou vs hamman - have to look at it further. court is a tough dude. can take a shot, heavy hands, and the good wrestling base.

im on mcgee...kampmann....and pineda.....

philipou got lucky last fight imo....he will be exposed in this fight....he does have good power but hes extremely ridged looking.....court is the much better all around fighter

kampamnn and alves is close....just depends on who shows up...i like kampmann....i think hes better versed than alves.....alves has more power but i think martin can get a decision if he cant finish alves

pineda is around +140 to +150.....really dont understand y hes even the dog here....this is a rematch from a previous fight where pineda looked to be the better fighter imo....if this plays out as the 1st fight did i think pineda will win

correction on the pineda/semerzier fight.....its not a rematch....i was thinking of peralta....my mistake.....but i still am playing pineda...he has a strong ground game...and semerzier shouldnt be favored at 6-3 imo

Ive been back and forth bw alves and Kamp. Kamp has always fought great fights against great competition. His stand up is solid and can prob hang with alves with the exception of catching a bigger shot from alves. But I think he can use his ground game too. Alves' is not good. When I relied who alves has beat, it's not impressive. Abedi, Howard, old Hughes (but alves weighed 178), karo. Only kos is good
