#1 Posted: 2/2/2012 12:07:30 PM one play so far:
Diaz -190 $100 wins $53
another tough card to cap, as a whole, but heres a few initial thoughts:
Natal/Kuiper - Kuiper's been inpressive in the bush leagues, but Natal is a big step up
Thompson/Stittgen - who?
riddle/martinez - i like riddle as martinez took this fight on real short notice. but riddle, coming off a cancelled fight due to him getting sick by his weight cut.... wait until the weigh ins to see how he looks
brown/cope - brown has never been favored this much against anyone, but against cope it is likely deserved. cope looked horrible last fight, but che mills is the real deal. i think brown should be all around better
poirier/holloway - poirier is one you can bank on for sure
caceres/figuero - i originally was liking bruce leeroy, but figuero has only lost to michael mcdonald. not a knock against his record, really. leeroys standup and mental game looked vastly improved last fight
herman/starks - i really like herman here - should be all around better
barao/jorgensen - i am really considering jorgensen, based on his experience in the big show. barao's biggest test to date. can't see him rolling over jorgensen like he has all thge others
kos/pierce - leaning pierce. almost surely a decision, and should be 15 minutes of standup
werdum/nelson - leaning country. i dont think werdum can either KO or submit country. he may out point him. but country can also outpoint as well. and he can also KO werdum
diaz/condit - diazes are jst too good right now to bet against |

I do think Poirier wins and they are just throwing him a bone here to keep him in contention since there is no guys at 145 lbs that deserve to fight Aldo. Poirier should be parlay material.
I think Barao wins. I think that line is justified. It is just hard to lay that much juice against a guy as good as Jorgensen. I do think Barao could prove to be the next big thing though. Not exactly sure about Barao's TDD but his striking sure is superior. And he is real dangerous on the ground to mess with too much. At the least his BJJ is good enough to get back to his feet.

And werdum/nelson I have no idea WTF to make of that one
i don't think Kos will be able to take and hold down pierce. he should be a little quicker with his hands. will move a little better. but i don't see a KO, by Kos, maybe pierce will get lucky
have you played riddle yet? any concerns with his weight and health. he alwasy drops lots of weight. even though he looked decent at his last weigh in, he got sick and wasn't cleared by doctors |

i really like poirier and herman.
barao line is getting worse. i was leaning jorg, but i think barao will be too much to handle
also was considering pierce, but in the end i think kos plays it smart and wins decision |

#12 Posted: 2/4/2012 3:06:09 PM  That last one is actually a really nice payout considering all the huge favourites on there!
And yep I ended up playing Riddle in that parlay, thought about betting him ITD as well but not gonna. Just that size difference is massive though, and he was saying he's simply not a points fighter and will be going all-out as usual, I think he'll overwhelm Martinez.
Hope you hit a few of those, good luck

#15 Posted: 2/4/2012 4:09:54 PM W/ You All They Way on Diaz..........
There IS alot of juice where there normally wouldn't be.......
 A note from your bankroll advisor. Pull one of those parlays off the board, put it in a waiting stash account, and dump it on that Hettes kid the next time he fights......lol
I do like your card though.......best of luck to you ! |
