UFC 147 Brazil, Rich Franklin vs Wanderlei Silva II

[SPX]

Line guesses on Werdum/Russow?

I bet Werdum opens at -500. I'll still play him.

[poopoo333]

Werdum -550 Russow +375

[SPX]

I really hope I can get Werdum at -500 or better.

How does Russow win this? This is pretty much a lock, in my opinion.

[poopoo333]

[SPX]

You know Werdum ain't going out like that.

WOw, I am really expecting to see werdum around -300 or better.
Russow is on a 11 fight win streak, never lost in 5 years.

Werdum is in an entirely different class IMO. Easy win for Werdum, the UFC is building him as a contender, giving him 2 fat guys in a row.

I totally agree that Werdum is in a different class. But I really don't think that he will come out at anything close to -500.
If he really comes out at -550 or worse like SPX and Poopoo seem to think, I will probably be on Russow.

Werdum should win, but I could see russow lay on werdum (especially since Werdum will be happy to pull guard) and avoid the subs for 3 rounds by not taking too many chances

Werdum opened -335

[Vandelay]

Anyway Russow wins this? maybe bet Werdum with hedge of Russow by ko. Only way I see him winning is by ko. But Werdum should be significantly better everywhere.

[SPX]

If Werdum's line holds by the time Bookmaker opens it--which I don't expect--then I'll be all over it. Werdum should be -500.
