Taking him where?

[Mangoo]

To the bank

[SPX]

To the bank

Negro, you know the answer to that.

I'm already on Serra for 1u @ +115.

I like Lytle, but the former WW champion has an answer for his mid-level nonsense.

[Mangoo]

Thers is no way he loses @ home......

This line should be -170 Lytle

as a matter of fact I will give you Serra +150

[Mangoo]

You are still the man though

[SPX]

My bet's been placed. Sometimes fighting at home gives fighters more nerves than strength.

[SPX]

You are still the man though

Well I appreciate that. . .

[Mangoo]

Maybe you are right, I just don't see where the oddsmakers are seeing that much value in Serra though.

[SPX]

Well, for one, Matt Serra's beat him once before. Also, since that fight Matt Serra beat GSP. He also sent Trigg into the 9th dimension. You don't think he deserves a little credit against a guy who's 9-7 in the UFC?

Well, Serra is 7-6 in the UFC, so lets not get it twisted.

One detail of three. Lytle never beat Serra . . . but Serra beat Lytle. Also, Lytle is not one of only two people to beat GSP.

So now that I've untwisted it, I assume you understand.

Nice ninja edit, X.

Actually, I had it right the first time, but thought I fucked it up.

In any case, facts are facts.

Have you actually seen that fight? It's tough to say either guy "beat" the other one.

Official score:
30-27 Serra
30-27 Lytle
30-27 Serra

Gayest split decision ever. Hardly a criterion for making your boy the favorite.

I've seen it.

In any case, there's still the GSP win, which was NOT by any "gayest split decision ever." It was by GSP getting beat the fuck down.

Maybe in a pasta eating contest for midgets.

And in the rematch GSP fuckin' Mauled him.

So?

Hey, if you think Serra beating GSP makes him more likely to beat Lytle, then more power to you. The odds of him finishing Lytle like that are about the same as the odds of him doing it to GSP, so whatev. This fight has another decision written all over it. More exciting though, most likely.
