    I will DEFINITELY be going. And yes, I am honestly disappointed that the main event is a Silva fight, but I'm actually looking forward to seeing him fight Sonnen because I think Sonnen might surprise us all.

    What do you think? Five-round LnP by Sonnen or five-round evasive countering by Silva?

    I wouldn't call what Sonnen does LnP. I mean, it's important to make the distinction between a wrestler who just controls his opponent without doing any real damage and the shit that Sonnen did to Dan Miller and Marquardt. He's very active.

    With that said. . .

    The efficiency with which Sonnen took Nate down was very impressive and Nate couldn't do much about it once he was on the ground. Provided Sonnen can stay away from subs--always a problem for him, traditionally--then he just might be able to win this one.

    Well of course. But relatively speaking, plenty of longshots have come through in the history of the sport, including BJ/Edgar.

    I'm not saying it's going to happen, but I do think that Sonnen has a tool--very strong wrestling--that plays to a weakness that Silva has always had, his takedown defense (though Maia obviously couldn't get him down . . . but he couldn't really get Dan Miller down either and we saw what Sonnen did to Miller).

    My 4 units lost says that beating Nate was a significant thing.

    Also, did this past weekend not prove that upsets can and do happen? It's so funny how once an upset actually happens everyone starts subconsciously coming up with reasons about how it was DESTINED to happen and it's really not that big of deal at all.

    Someone's going to whip Silva's ass eventually.

    Only 4? Marquardt cost Me a total of 13.5u between the two parlays I had him in. He was the only one to lose in the parlays(I had Demian Maia over Dan Miller and Randy Couture over Mark Coleman on one, and Maia on another with Nate before the lines got too crazy). If only Sonnen would have just tapped out like a normal person to that choke...
    2013: +8.24u(increased unit size on 5/19)
    Favorites: 20-6 + 6.13u
    Underdogs: 10-19 -2.51u
    Ludo's Locks Parlay Project: +1.4u

    2012: +20.311u
