I wouldve thought -200 or more for Silva. Maybe a lot more. Really fishy line, no?
Silva vs Paul only -115?

Yeh in theory Paul has no chance but that line seems like maybe they keep it entertaining and Silva gets paid off? Dunno hes already made so much money so hes not a typical candidate to take a dive.
Silva should be able to smoke Paul IMO

@mistahdent
You both make good points. Either way I am going to have a degen bet on it because I have great seats and want some action. Just hope I pick the right coin flip. This is one of those matches I feel Silva should win easy as I don't give Paul credit for being a real fighter. He is all self generated hype. But I will be pissed beyond all belief if I bet on Paul (who I can't stand) and he gets his face pushed in by Silva and I knew it. But going to be equally mad if I bet on Silva and I see another clip of Paul singling to Silva to put his guard down and Paul "knocks him out" with another right cross.

I just find it hard to believe Paul has progressed from fighting non professionals to one of the best MMA of all time even if he is 47. The guy was in very good shape vs chavez jr. I dunno this is the strangest line Ive seen in ages. Who knows though, maybe the money for Silva to take a dive is enough! They are def fluffing up Paul bc hes a good ticket.

Well the fight is being produced and promoted by Paul’s team right? That would concern me.

Exactly my thoughts. Line creeped up for a while then boom exploded in favor of Paul. Someone knows something.

To go with the points it has to go the distance right? This is scheduled for 8 rounds. There is a prop for over 5.5 rounds -145. That is very telling to me this isn’t going to a decision. If not going to a decision has to favor Paul.
