    i was gonna bet Grant too but he was taken down by Dunham and Maynard is better wrestler than Dunham. this fight will determine the next guy for the belt so Maynard could go into wrestling mode. If he does, i'm not so sure Grant will be able stop the tds and/or get back up after taken down. He will probably win the 3rd round if Maynard had win the first 2 rounds and fight safe the 3rd round. Also the tds will be harder to get in the 3rd when Maynard is tired and Grant is probably going to land more on the feet. He's also got a fantastic chin.

    Khabib seems pretty good too. I don't see what Abel Trujillo is better at.

    I like Roop at the odds. This is more of a Bowles fade.

    I might put a flyer on Trujillo but the safer bet is probably the fight not going the distance.

    Colton Smith should win a decision but don't like laying -200 on some marine

    Bermudez should win but don't like -300 on him. Might parlay him small with JDS, which are two guys I am hesistant to lay the juice on.

    I like Story tonight a lot, but the factor that is holding me back is his defensive wrestling. Kampmann took this into account as well (Pyle's teammate) and Pyle should know that is what he needs to do to win. This is keeping me from a large bet.

    I will be betting Noons +3.5 at +150 and him straight at +260. He will give Cerrone trouble imo.

    I love TJ Grant tonight. I am going to be betting a minimum of 5u on him.

    Glover should win tonight easily. I might parlay him with Cain ITD. This pays -157.
    Damn. I was thinking about betting both Cerrone and Bermudez at those odds. Not the odds I like but I think they both win.

    Yah...Maynard is not subbing Grant...that line is insane.

    hmmm. Not maynard by sub is like -1300, I think that is pretty damn enticing. When was the last time Maynard even attempted a sub? against Huerta?

    Any thoughts on Trujillo/Nurm?

    Im thinking about betting him over Noons. He is a better fighter and he sounds like he is in better form than normal. That should equal a win for him. That said, Noons does have decent takedown defense and good striking. He has a path to victory.

    I am pretty confident in Bermudez. Holloway makes me slightly nervous though. He is pretty decent and has some good power. He knocked out that Justin Lawrence kid with a body shot. Lawrence is an experienced kickboxer as well.

    If he gets mental jitters then it's certainly never seemed to affect his performances. He doesn't win every fight but the dude's always been a beast.

    Interview with Cerrone.

    Summary:

    He almost died rock climbing. He is ok. He chokes before fights. He hired a sports psychologist to help him. He used to eat lots of candy and would cut 30 pounds before a fight. Now he weighs 174. He is in a better place mentally and physically.

    Being embarrassed on national television tends to lose it's impact when you nearly die a few weeks later. Just ask Donald Cerrone.

    JDS started out as a jiu jitsu guy. He has a black belt as well.

    Another thing I just noticed. Most of JDS's opponents have been very good BJJ artist or wrestlers. Its kinda hard to say he should be submitting more people. On top of that his standup has been pretty devastating so he doesn't really need to tap anyone out.

    Hes had 10 fights in the ufc. Werdum, Gonzaga, Nelson, Mir. Four of them are very good black belts. Cain Velasquez twice and Shane Carwin, both good wrestlers. So seven out of ten fights he was in a position where he probably couldn't sub his opponent even if he was really good at it. The other ones were cro cop, struve and Yvel. Yvel and struve got knocked out in a combined total of 3 minutes.

    You guys might be right, he could suck on the ground but he is a black belt. Mccorkle tapped Hunt off not too long ago as well.

    I have a bet on JDS by submission by the way. That is why I am so hopeful here. I got him at +1150. Couldn't get a lot down though, just a partial unit. They adjusted the line to +700 or so and I put down some more.

    This is a very gay prediction. +5000.
