    Re: UFC 125

    I think Edgar's wrestling has looked better in his last few fights.

    Is Maynard that much better of a wrestler than Sherk? I know Sherk didn't go for a lot of takedowns, but he went for a few and got told to fuck off every time.

    Wrestling credential-wise, Maynard is better than Sherk. Maynard has taken one every down that he wanted to, but Edgar is the only other D1 wrestler he has faced... Gray gets to decide whether he wants to go down or not, which I have to think is a big advanatge in the fight. He may stand with him for a while... Edgar has not really hurt anyone standing that I can recall.

    He rocked Veach, which lead to the choke.

    Re: UFC 125

    Does the stance you have to be in to avoid takedowns affect your punching power? I would think it does. The reason I mention it is because Frankie is going to have to be avoiding the better wrestler the whole night. He doesn't normally punch with much power so he should be punching with even less for this fight because(compared to BJ) he has to be real wary of the takedown. Maynard seems to have some decent power standing as well. Not a huge amount though.

    I'm not saying that Edgar doesn't have a path to V. He can move around quickly, he might be able to steal some rounds by being more active. If Gray can't take him down I don't see him landing more strikes, so if Gray can't take him down I don't see how Gray can win.

    Also, Edgar has been in two 5 round title fights and dealt with the pressure. He might be a better Frankie because of that. This one is hard to call. I bet it goes the distance though. Probably Gray by decision, I haven't seen the first fight though.

    If Gray can't get him down then I think Edgar boxes the shit out of his ears and wins a clear decision.

    2u Kim +105

    I tried to get him @+140 but the line would not stop dropping when placing the bet.

    1.75u on Leben @ -165
    1u on Vera @ +120
    .5u on Gomi @ +145

    I definitely hate that I missed out on the opening line on DHK. If he wanders back into underdog territory I will take him.

    Seems high to me too. But if you take out the Tyson Griffin win, Gomi has not looked good in a long time. I think Guida will beat him with takedowns and gas tank.

    I think it's high, but people probably assume he'll just stick to Gomi like glue and win a decision.

    Why do think Vera wins?

    Yeah Guida may just lay on him for 3 rounds . I'll probably just leave it alone

    He always does. Just like he always thinks Jardine and Pulver will win. I've told him since he signed up here to never bet on Jardine or Vera and he just keeps doing it

    DHK line dropped from +145 to +105 in a little over a minute. At least I still got him at + odds.

    I do think Vera should probably be favored. I see this as technical striker vs brawler. Provided Silva doesn't land a KO blow (Vera has never been straight KOd and his only TKO losses are to Werdum--arguably an early stoppage--and Jones's elbow from hell), I think Vera should win a decision in much the same way as he did against Krzystof. Also, I give him the wrestling edge. He's a good greco guy after all, and he's never been subbed.
