UFC on FX 7 Vitor Belfort vs Michael Bisping

Also, my main bet of this card will definitely be Ronny Markes. Looked a little more into the fight and he will be a sure play.

Well I would like to start with 50 unit bank roll and I want to make a good sized withdrawal on the 9th (when it's free) so I can put it in my savings account. It will give me a good boost to operation save a lot of fucking money in 2013.

[edman5555]

Be conservative with your bets I mean.

[edman5555]

Thanks. Not by much. $50 units in 2013 compared to $40. Gonna cash out about $2k next week and keep $2.5k in for a 50u bankroll to start.

If you don't really need the money you should give it a try. Play with 75 dollar units. Be conservative.

Or close to it, that sounded kinda dramatic. Congrats on last nights big win again BTW. Are you going to increase the size of next years bankroll with all this new cash? You should. You are doing well now.

I feel like Markes will be able to take Craig down at will.

[poopoo333]

I will definitely be on Markes, I overlooked this fight. He shoud be in the mid -200s but if his line is worse than expected I will find something to parlay.

I think Bisping survives the 1st round and a half and takes over with active striking, clinch work, wrestling. I am very confident in the Brit here.

Really? I guess I can see why. One thing I will say about Vitor is that you can make an argument for him being overrated. He does perform well during fights, (ko'ing rich and Akiyama, tapping out AJ) but aside from them most of the guys he's knocked out weren't that well known. Before them it was Matt Lindland and Terry Martin. To be fair his only losses in the ufc are against the pound for pound best fighters in the world. Gotta give him credit for fighting both of them. He also has super fast hands, huge ko power and really great BJJ. He's like a technical Chris Leben.

Also, what do you guys think of Ronny Markes Vs Andrew Craig?

Markes has shown some fantastic wrestling against Atrain and Vemola. Craig is undefeated and a brown belt in jiu jitsu. He beat Noke but Noke was injured during the fight. Craig was also getting beat by Natal until he had that come from behind head kick. I guess I like Markes to win this one.

Makres ufc profile states he is the Natal state Jiu-Jitsu champion and vice Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu champion. Whatever that means, hes the Al Gore of Jiu jitsu. He is also a brown belt in BJJ under Jair Lourenco of Nova Uniao.

Craig has one submission win and one ko outside of Natal. That guy he knocked out had 2 fights under his belt at the time. I am leaning towards Markes. His line will probably be ridiculous.

Belfort bulked up for the Jon Jones fight didn't he? I'd look for the video but it probably isn't there. I remember Jones saying that they acutally changed their gameplan in the backroom before the fight because Vitor looked so big at the weigh ins. This could cause some problems for Vitor during the fight. The fight was in September, I don't see how Vitor could cut down on his muscle mass by then, at least not in a significant way. If I am right about that then it would make sense that me could have a rough cut to 185. He's made it before, but Bisping is a bit of a grinder and this is 5 rounds. I could see Bisping taking over with his wrestling later on in the fight against a tired Vitor. I don't see Bisping subbing him or knocking him out though.

On the other hand, Belfort has some big power and speed in his hands. I guess it goes without saying but I'll say it anyways. That has always been Bispings problem. He gets rocked in almost every fight and Vitor is a finisher.

I guess I lean Vitor but I'm not really sure. How do you guys see the wrestling playing out?

Will bet poopoo's 2012 MMA winnings on Anderson.

Dana White confirms if Michael Bisping wins at UFC on FX 7, he will get the next shot at Anderson Silva

[edman5555]

Yeah it is. Id be worried about gonzaga slapping on a submission, i think rothwell is more well rounded though.
