If this shit's right, Machida's going to be fighting Phil Davis on this card. If that goes down, all in on Machida.

I think that is a pretty good fight, Davis deserves another real test. Agree that Machida should win that though.

SPX

Machida either by murder or by embarrassing Davis for 3 rounds. Davis lost BADLY to Rashad and Machida is a step above Rashad. Davis won't out-wrestle or out-strike him, he won't sub him, and I seriously doubt he knocks him out.

Luke says he thinks Machida will be -300. If that happens, that is a fucking gift. I think it will be more like -450 if we're lucky.

I don't think it will be that bad. Davis did get beat by Rashad... but he also beat Gustaffson and Nog (who beat Rashad). I don't think Davis gets the credit he deserves which is why I like this matchup. But yeah, it is a terrible matchup for Davis, I don't see his out here.

Let's not forget he was getting beaten by Gustafsson until Gus shot in for a takedown, which is when Phil latched onto that choke. He couldn't do shit against Minotoro in the first round and a half with his takedowns and he couldn't touch him striking. Machida is going to eat him alive.

Hendo got him down and held him there for a bit before Machida was able to get back to his feet. Machida has never shown a particular weakness against wrestlers and if he does get taken down he can usually (always, if I remember correctly) get back up.

Both Hendo and Rampage have something that Davis doesn't, though. Punching power. Machida had to be wary of the hands as they closed the distance which created an opening to go for the shot. Davis is not only weak as fuck standing, but his hands are slow to boot. Machida is going to eat this nigga alive!

There's a part of me that wants to go "Nooooooooooooo!" But there's perhaps a bigger part of me that hopes this puts a stop Pettis's 145 lb ambitions and sets up Pettis/Bendo, as it should've been all along.

Both. I obviously favor Machida but +300 is nuts imo. Davis is only getting better and I feel that Machida has already hit his peak and may not even be there anymore. I hate how this fight is in Brazil based on the recent trends of America (besides Nik Lentz) getting fucked up in Brazil.

Can he do what he did to Fitch to Koscheck? Maia didn't give Fitch any room to strike, he might be able to do the same to Koscheck. Also, Koscheck is definitely one of those fighters that is just fighting for the money now in my opinion. He isn't with AKA and just went ahead and opened his own gym. He seems to have made his money and I have this feeling he just isn't into it anymore. Combine that with traveling to Brazil and the cards are stacked against him.

HOWEVER, he might have a "fire lit under his ass" now because if he loses I am pretty sure he is going to get cut.

MMA_scientist
07-09-2013, 11:05 AM
I think Koscheck is a much stronger wrestler than Fitch, only a couple guys (GSP, Hendricks) can even think about taking Koscheck down. The difference with Maia is that he will go for the finish whereas Hendricks and GSP aren't just going to jump up on your back standing. What that means for this fight, I don't know, but I have my doubts that Maia can take Kos down or even outclinch him. I could see Maia just chasing him around the cage for 15 minutes while Koscheck tries to avoid the clinch and land his ridiculous haymakers.

I don't know, I have always thought that Koscheck was the 2nd best WW after GSP, just a lot dumber.

Im thinking along the same lines as poopoo, I think Maia is gonna smother him similar to the Fitch fight. I really like Maia lately and Kos looks like he is going through the motions anymore.

edman5555

Maia might be able to out kickbox him..

edman5555
07-09-2013, 03:17 PM
Im very confident in Aldo in this one but his line has gone to shit. Machida should win as well but his line is equally shitty and I am a little worried that Phil can take him down. I like Vinny to beat Perosh but I worry that Perosh might be able to win with wrestling. Though I think Perosh should be at a speed disadvantage which should make it hard for him to land takedowns.

poopoo333
07-09-2013, 03:20 PM
Aldo will win but I'll be rooting for KZ. The line sucks. I was going to bet very large on Aldo over Pettis at -150 but then Pettis had to go and get hurt.

edman5555
07-09-2013, 04:36 PM

We got screwed on the Machida decision. He won that fight.

I also have been doing poorly lately and haven't been having a great year in general. 8 months in and this bullshit last night put me in the hole. I should be way up by now. First Nelson goes out and does . . . whatever the fuck it was he did out there. And then Machida gets raped by the judges. That's two 5u bets--my last two 5u bets, which is pretty much the max I ever bet on a fight--that crashed and burned.

I'm starting to understand why Ludo is taking a break.

Give me a record on your bets and I'll let you know. But I can remember thinking plenty of times that you ended up on the good side of some flukey shit, like Lawler knocking out Kos. Even you said you were kissing your money goodbye after Kos started trying to wrestle.

I know your research and instincts have a lot to do with your success but the universe has clearly been on your side this year. Not that that's a bad thing. I'd certainly take it.

Oh yeah...with that one I figured Kos would be Kos and stand longer than he should and might have ended up getting KTFO. Just looked through all the fights in 2013 and the only other one comparable to that is Bigfoot KOing Reem in the 3rd. Other than that nothing too crazy. I got lucky with the Davis decision but I've been on the bad end of some pretty shitty decisions this year: Gomi/Sanchez, Dunham/RDA, FUCKING MIKE PYLE/RICK STORY WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT, and Melendez/Bendo.

I feel like I've been getting screwed hard this year pretty much the whole way through. I took a big shot on both Nelson and Machida and lost both of them. The Nelson lost I can accept, but the Machida loss was really hard. Now, after those losses and having to pull some money to pay some bills, my entire bank roll is down to 10u. And if I lose it I have no way right now to refund my accounts. So if things don't turn around I could be out of the game for the foreseeable future.
