Titan 31

5-4 +3.5

Plays between 0-2 but you'll notice unless it's Bellator or UFC, it's rarely more than 1.

Stinson -175 over Figueroa .7 to win .4
I've known Stinson for a long time. The guy is a workhorse and has really developed his overall game. He uses his length well and is just too crafty and experienced for Figueroa here.

Thompson +150 over Hasegawa .6 to win .9
I think Matt really improved after his lay-off. He's got a lot more experience and I like to fade Asian fighters their first time on US soil. We've seen touted Asian stars time and time again underperform. I also like Thompson's size advantage and believe he's the better striker.

Not Des Green by decision -190 .95 to win .5
Miguel is a very live dog here, but he's also one of those proud guys that won't just be wrestle-humped all night. He will do whatever it takes not to just get laid on.

That's it - good luck.

I'm with you on Stinson and am thinking about betting Thompson too. I'm on Green straight up, but with your bet how do you see it playing out? Green by stoppage or maybe Torres by stoppage I would assume if you favor the dog? Or the more unlikely Torres by decision?

Torres has the better striking, IMO. He also has a pretty nasty high guard and back take game. I think Torres wins the striking battle early, stuffs a few TDs, but Des gets him down. Torres works his subs from guard and threatens Des often and wins by triangle TKO in the 2nd. If that's exactly how it goes down I'm changing my handle to nostradammas.

Seriously though, I almost pulled the trigger on Torres SU, but I can see a scenario where Torres is losing a wrestling match and gives up a finish not to be lay and prayed. I think he's desperate to get back to the top and this may be his last run.

I bet Green under the theory that Miguel's best days are long behind him and that his recent wins were against fighters who were steps down in competition. And now that he is stepping back up to fight someone like Desmond Green at 145 pounds he will lose again. Wil be interesting to see how it plays out. 

For sure. I hope I'm not living in a haze of nostalgia but it's definitely possible. Should be a good night regardless.

I can't believe Ricci missed weight. I saw him as a guy who would get back to the UFC after 3-5 fights if he could perform well. This doesn't help.

Hasegawa tapped to that triangle/arm-bar in the third. That was some sloppy ass mma though.

I thought I noticed that too.

Nice call Jim. Glad it paid off for both of us.

Small profit .4 - .6 + .5 = .3 + 3.5
7-5 +3.8

Probably have a few for Invicta tomorrow.
