I&#x27;m with you on Max Holloway at -200, although I think he may stop Do Bronx in the later rounds. And I would not be surprised to see Patrick Cote win his match, although I like the over 2&#xBD; rounds more as a bet instead. But I can&#x27;t agree that Erick Silva is a better fighter than Rick Story. Silva has a reasonable chance to win in the first round, but if not, I think tough grinder Story will take over.

I think this is a winnable fight for Oliveira. I think both have the stamina to go 5, but I like Oliveira's chances of stopping Holloway more than vice versa. More likely than not, Max wins a dec, but the odds have gotten out of hand

Silva is more diverse than Story, and comes out of the gate hard! Erick has to win in the first half, or like Gunn says, Story will take over and grind out a dec or late stoppage. Silva is an animal! But he has trouble with grinders

I like Burkman. they both have good chin's but Burkman can't be KO'd as he showed vs Hector on roids. there is nothing fancy about Cote - I like Burma's angles, etc to be little more diverse on the feet

Just as I'm writing this I see Story is out and Magny is in - Man that guy fights a lot!! I think Magny get rolled over again, but will put some more thought into it

Good points JG, and I like your o2.5 rounds with Cote/Burkman

Saw...agree with you on the Holloway.Oliveira odds. Thought It'd be much closer than what it currently is, with the odds leaning slightly towards Holloway. Haven't seen the o/u on this yet, anyone know?

And I like Silvia even more with this new matchup with Magny having just been worked by Maia 2 weeks ago (3 week 'rest'?). Hopefully the odds will still remain close between these two.

I&#x27;m with Sawman and like Oliviera at these odds.  Sure if it stays upright the whole time Holloway is a decided favorite, but I think Charles finds some way to get it to the ground and wins.  Holloway hasn&#x27;t really fought anyone with the intent and ability to take it to the ground in a while (I guess Cole Miller prob would have wanted to..missed that one).&#xD;&#xA;Magny v. Silva.  Hmm wonder what the odds on that will be (Silva -180?).  I will have to go with Magny here by late finish.  Silva will do his usual and blow his wad.  I think Magny can hang on just long enough for Silva to fade.&#xD;&#xA;I got Burkman v. Cote.  Cote is just looking really slow these days.  Is this fight in Canada?  Yep I guess it is.  Maybe Cote gets another gift decision.&#xD;&#xA;Wonder what Laprise&#x27;s odds will be v Massaranduba?  I really think Laprise is pretty smooth and can get the W here.

I watched Miller vs Holloway yesterday.It started competitive and Max took over after a couple rounds. But there were a couple head buts, the 1st of which cot Cole badly, that had an impact on the fight. Max could turn on the stand up when he wanted, but Miller did get him down, and Oliveira is way better on the ground and TDs than Miller. AND he&#x27;s a better striker I think. So I think Oliveira will be able to get Max down on occasion and he always goes for the finshI also watched Oliveira vs Lentz. It was 1 round a piece when it was stopped in the 3rd. Lenz kept grinding him down on the ground, but played with fire and got burned.It&#x27;s going to be an amazing fight

BATM3 · Answer

Yeah, figured these were outdated (https://www.mmaoddsbreaker.com/news/ufc-fight-night-74-betting-odds) .  But just an idea and on the o/u.

RenegadesOfFunk · Answer

Oliviera takes this in my opinion.  Should be a great fight and personally think Do Bronx has no issues here. Imo the line should be even,  Holloway is the name everyone knows and the sheeples will line up and put their money on the fave and off to the slaughter house they will go.
