Miguel Torres Vs. Michael McDonald Booked For UFC 145

whos winning this one, guys? im leaning Torres.

[SPX]

Probably Torres. If I could get him at the -130 that 5d has him at, I'd probably take him. But Torres hasn't looked great lately, so I wouldn't be confident betting him at anything worse than that.

[Ludo]

Torres looked awesome in his last fight, and he should have gotten the nod against Mighty Mouse.

[SPX]

He looked awesome against a dude who is 1-3 under Zuffa. And I agree he should've won against DJ but that fight was still a lot closer than I thought it should've been.

Yeah but to be fair Pace got thrown to the wolves. His debut was against Mighty Mouse, he beat that scrub Campuzano, and then had to fight the ever-massive-for-bantamweight Menjivar, and then probably the most experienced bantamweight on the planet. Not quite a murderers row, but close to it for a guy like Pace who's only had five fights coming in.

[SPX]

Yeah, that is true. I wonder why they do that sometimes? It seems like every fighter is due their building up period where they get to fight some lower level guys.

I'm not sure why they gave him some of the toughest varied opponents in the division with only 5 fights on his prior record, but it did seem a little unfair. I think because Bantamweight is an under-developed division they don't really believe in steady progression there.

I will be all over Miguel Torres...I think Mcdonald has looked good but his competition has been somewhat weak. How does he beat Torres? Maybe keeping it standing and trying to outstrike him? Torres has pretty good standup. I'm not sure what T's takedowns are like though. I would imagine he is wily enough to be able to pull something out. Either way I will take Torres at close to EVEN. Hopefully the line holds.

[SPX]

Torres's takedowns are not great.

And why do you hope the line holds? If you like it, why not just bet it now?
