UFC 146

Mir is the new Guillard. Never worth a bet as a favorite, always worth a bet as a dog. He can beat anyone, and he could lose to anyone. I think Mir's chin is going though, so I expect him to get stopped with strikes pretty early.

Yeah, Big Nog was literally fucking him in the ass with strikes before he went all BJJ-gay and went for the sub/getting his arm broken.

Why do you think his Chin is going? The Nog fight? He is a pretty big guy, I bet he can hit very hard. That said, if Nog can outstrike him I would think Cain cain. That said, Mir did drop Kongo with a punch and Kongo dropped Cain multiple times. That said, I don't know who wins. Mir at these odds or probably nothing.

[MMA_scientist]

He has been dropped a few times now, Carwin dropped him with a short punch, Nog didn't look like he hit him very gard (and Nog isn't known for his big power)... I don't know, just seems like he has been collapsing in a heap a lot. He recovers, but he won't be able to get Cain down. So it will be a striking match unless Cain decides to take him down. But Mir is sometimes really good, and sometimes pretty sucky. You never know what is going to happen when he steps in there. That is why he is fun to watch, but I think very hard to bet or break down to cap.

Big Nog is the only top 10 HW Mir has beaten

[MMA_scientist]

Is that true? I guess it is. Conversely, Mir has only lost to 2 top 10 guys right? Brock II and Carwin.

Cain is going to whup him good. Koscheck is just spouting sour grapes. AKA is a great camp, Koscheck was saying that they NEVER had coaching there and that it was NEVER a good camp. OK. Don't cry because you came up short in your career and try to blame your team.

[poopoo333]

Yeah I am not sure I believe this either. There is no reason he should be that big of a favorite.

3u on Dunham @+240

[poopoo333]

The line is still holding for Barboza/Dunham. I guess I am just crazy for loving Dunham @+240, I figured that line would hold no longer than 5 minutes

[edman5555]

That is a good bet for dunham.

[SPX]

I think Dunham is a great bet at +240. Barboza winning is far from a foregone conclusion, in my opinion.

[MMA_scientist]

I think Dunham will win the fight outright. Definitely be taking that action.
