[SPX]

Damn, four books have that line up and none of them are mine.

Sucks, too. Urijah's gonna be -500 by the time he opens at Bodog/Bookmaker. I would definitely take him at that price.

^^^ Its been open for days

The line opened at -270 Oct 29th so I dont think its moving much more man

[SPX]

It seems to slowly be inching up.

Faber's going to win that fight. I don't have a lot of doubt. I really like Mizugaki, but he struggled with a past-his-prime Curran when Faber was able to put Curran away in better days for Curran's career.

Faber's an excellent fighter.

What type of fighter do you think Mizygaki is? He doesn't look like he has great Jitz, he seems more like a brawler...is this correct?

I would say that he's a solid, well-rounded fighter, but he's not a great fighter. His boxing is actually pretty tight; I wouldn't call him a brawler. His wrestling is pretty decent, too. He gave both Torres and Jorgensen a good fight and both were relatively close.

That's pretty much the way I expect this fight to go: He'll give Faber a good fight, but he's gonna get the short end of the stick.

You sure?

Faber: 5u to win 1.45u

[ManBoobKilla]

what do you guys think about Johnson vs Page? I believe that Johnson has really good value if he comes in as the underdog which I am sure he will. Page is pretty good but I dont think that he can stop Johnsons takedowns. Factor that in with Page's injury and layoff and I believe he is a very good underdog bet. where do you think the line will be?

[poopoo333]

Johnson @ +300?! I hope that line stays when it opens @ 5dimes.

[ManBoobKilla]

same here. he is at +250 now though. I am liking Koch, Faber, and Njokuani

[Havis Jr]

Anyone like Mackens against swanson? I don't see either of them being able to make it a ground fight and Mackens has 10 yrs boxing exp, if its a standup fight he should have the advantage.

I have been thinking Mackens since the fight was announced but it seems almost everybody is for swanson and therefore have kinda talked me out of it. I still think that he will win but just not betting it.

[Havis Jr]

Unreal. refs are shit tonight.

[poopoo333]

So did I get screwed on my mackens bet?

[SPX]

Looks like Njokuani just sent another one to the grave.

You gotta like a 155-pounder who has never been to decision even once in the WEC (whether win or lose).
