Sanchez cant take Ellenberger down so it is a striking match where Sanchez is outgunned. I only put 6u on Ellenberger.

[Luke]

I really don't believe Ellenberger has a clear advantage in this fight except for power.

+1

He'll have Sanchez outgunned for about 1.5 rds. By rd 3 you'll be praying the rd would just end before Ellenberger falls over from exhaustion .Jake already has a bad gas tank and Sanchez is a pressure fighter.


There's a reason Dana made this fight 3 rds instead of 5.

[mike]

it wont go pass 1.5 rounds. real talk

[Luke]

Kind of a bold statement since Sanchez has never been stopped before .

[mike]

seriously, I dont see anything special from Sanchez. His striking is sloppy, his td is weak. He has good stamina but I think he will be stopped in this fight. He's been taking bad beatings in many fights. At some point, his brain is going to shut down on him. Ellenberger is a bad match up for Sanchez. I dont worry about the gassing problem as I dont think this fight will be a grueling grappling match.

He really should be the better wrestler.

Yeah probably, but I meant "clear" advantage.

He's took bad beatings for years while he was with his friends in his house. Since he has been back with a real camp (since the paulo thiago), training for real and with good gameplan, he's been doing quite good. As we saw on last saturday, everything in about gameplan for G. Jackson's fighters. I wouldn't be suprise to see sacnhez just try to grapple and clinch over and over with ellenberger for 1 full round, beeing stuffed everytime, just to tire him out badly and be able to win the other 2 rounds.

Diego ITD is +1720.. lol. Ellenberger has looked kind of invincible, but I threw something small on that. Maybe Diego will go off like round 1 vs Guida (except with the uppercuts leading to a finish)

[mike]

lulz at that odd. You would win if Sanchez wins by DQ, right? that's more likely than him stopping Ellenberger by strikes lulz

[ctm0808]

Yep, DQ would be a win :) Maybe Ellenberger will smash Diego with a Bisping-style knee.

Otherwise, just have to hope Ellenberger gasses HORRIBLY and Diego pours it on the 2nd/3rd to somehow get the TKO. He did flurry pretty decently a few times while Kampmann's back was on the cage, and that was Fat Diego.

[Thewisemann]

Diego could choke out a gassed Ellenberger.

[edman5555]

Diego could choke out a gassed Ellenberger.

I was thinking something similar. I doubt it happens but +1720 is pretty good.

[poopoo333]

ya I went ahead and threw a little on Diego ITD @+1300 something. I would like to find someone to parlay Stipe Miocic with.
