UFC on FOX 5

[SPX]

I'll take Johnson and Swick up to -250 each

Johnson at -250? Are you bringing the lulz or being serious?

Explain yourself!

Schaub has shown us time and again that he can be put straight to sleep with a single heavy shot. Heavy shots are all Lavar throws, and he'll have a reach advantage like always here. That motherfucker is just a big dude who packs devastating power in his hands. Schaub won't stand there being pummeled for 30 seconds like Pat Barry, he'll fold much sooner if Lavar swarms on him.

[SPX]

But still . . . -250? Those are some pretty heavy odds for a dude like Lavar Johnson.

I could understand it if you said you'd take Johnson in an even money fight, but if he's -250 I'd be on Schaub in a heartbeat. You remember when Barry took Lavar down? I do.

When was the last time Schaub even attempted a takedown? Barry wanted to showcase his new found grappling after spending a year and a half at Dethclutch, Schaub hasn't really displayed a dedication to taking anyone down that I can remember.

It's not his MO, but in this fight it would not shock me at all if it's his gameplan. And it will take only a modicum of skill to make it happen.

he better dive in for the td instead of standing and strike in this fight.

[MMA_scientist]

I will definitely take Schaub at those odds.

Schaub took down crocop iirc.

Schaub took down crocop iirc.

He did. I will be betting fairly large on Schaub if he is at + numbers

[edman5555]

lavar was getting dominated by Pat Barry on the ground. Schaub is a purple belt in BJJ. I think Pat Barry is a white belt. That said, Lavar hits like a mack truck and I this should be the typical no bet because they are heavyweights and anyone can get KO'd situation but if Schaub is at plus odds I'd be on him. Significant plus odds though, like +250. Otherwise I wouldnt bother.

[poopoo333]

Schaub @+250? If that seriously happened I would have no problem putting 10u on that.



Moving on..

Alexander Gustafsson vs Mauricio Rua - 3 rounds - UFC on Fox 5 propositions
Sat 12/8		1103 Gustafsson/Rua goes 3 round distance		+170
10:30PM		1104 Fight won't go 3 round distance		-230

+170 is nice. I really believe Gustafsson will win, but will he actually stop Shogun? ?I don't think so

[Ludo]

Gustafsson MIGHT have a chance at finishing Shogun in a 5 round fight, but not in a 3 round fight. Shogun is still tough as nails even when he's exhausted.

off topic but dont want to start a new thread. looks like there wont be any lines for this friday tachi palace fights event huh ?

UFC on Fox 5 in Seattle Gets Bantamweights Mike Easton, T.J. Dillashaw

Wonder how Easton handles a wrestler like Dillashaw? Probably not well.

[poopoo333]

Although I see Gustafsson winning, I think Shogun by decision +501 has "value" for sure.
