Let's make it $50 for $100, Gomi is a bum.
Gomi has looked like shit for sure, though he has been losing to good fighters. That said, Mac puts on a pace and I bet Gomi fades.
I wonder who would win in a Danzig/Bocek rematch.
I heart cock
I dunno. I guess ultimately there's only one way to find out. But I think Danzig's better than he usually gets credit for and Bocek may not be quite as good as he usually gets credit for.

I have decided...Dong Hyun Kim wins this. The only way I see him lose is if he gets dumb on his feet and starts to get wreckless/show boat like he has done before..he might get clipped.
He seems to have fallen in love with his hands lately. Personally the more I think about it the more I figure to just stay away from this fight altogether. Paulo Thiago isn't exactly known for being well rounded but he does throw a fuck ton of power behind his punches. Fifteen minutes is a long time to avoid getting hit with a Haymaker especially if Kim can't adequately break him down through two rounds, even then Kim will probably gas out himself in the process.

I only slightly favor Kim in this fight. It's Thiago or nothing.
Kims takedowns are pretty good but I don't feel like they are amazing. Paulo Thiago held off Volkmans takedowns for about 3 rounds or so. He is a lot smaller but a very good wrestler. He also held off Diego for a round. Only one though. I think it is tough to say that Kim can go out there and take Paulo down easily. According to Wiki, Judo is Paulo Thiagos base. That is also Kims base so this could be close in the grappling department. Striking its tough to call too. Outside of Thiagos knockout of Koscheck I don't think his striking has been that amazing. Maybe I am wrong, I havent looked at his fights in a while. On the other hand Kim looked really crisp against Pierson and he used his range pretty well. I guess Thiago as a dog or nothing.
Thiago's striking is just OK. He was getting soundly outstruck against Koscheck as well, before landing a lucky punch that lead to an early stoppage.
I heart cock
Yeah, I don't think DHK has a ton of heart either. I think he breaks easy to be honest. I am only going to play Kim by decision when the line is released.
I really think Danzig is going to win; I actually think he will probably dominate. However, -255 is a shitty line. I might just parlay him with "Not Cung Le by submission" and possibly "Not Nedkov by submission". Hell, I might even throw "Not Gomi by submission" in there as well. If I could get that under -200, it will be a 5 unit bet most likely.
i finally got myself a 5d account and put $300 in it. thats a 6u br for me. gonna put it all on this event.. phillipou, lawlor, tuck, fuduka, and caceres.
Phillipou and Lawlor are at UFC 154.
But, I like the over 2.5 rds in the main event at -120
I will probably take Tuck @ +115. Caceres has definitely turned out to be better than anticipated, don't know who Tezuka is though.
