Are you going to the fight live? Or watching from the books?

[edman5555]

Yea I have no clue. I can see a lot of people betting Anderson. I may wait. Just debating on how much to bet. I only worry about Weidmans conditioning due to the layoff. Prolly gonna bet 3000. I seen Erick Silva and Gonzaga yesterday. Gonzaga isn't as big as I yhought

Thats a big play man. The goat. Seems risky to me. I wish you luck but think your taking too big of a risk.

Do they allow parlays there?

[Luke]

I think you all should just save your money cause Weidman isnt winning

[Thewisemann]

Watching it live. Idk if they allow parlays. I would assume they do.

[Thewisemann]

And Weidman is winning. I'm only worried about him gassing and maybe getting stopped late in the fight.

Weidman's striking blows. He just about got outstruck by Maia. He gets wayyyyyyyyyyy too much credit for his striking for landing one elbow against Munoz. Weidman's shot is also worse than Sonnen's . If Sonnen couldnt get Silva down after rd 1 there's zero chance Weidman will. His ONLY chance is to get Silva down in rd 1 and sub him. After that, hes toast.

[Thewisemann]

Sonnen missed a few takedown attempts in rd 2 then threw the fight away by trying a spinning backfist and falling. He may or may not been able to get another takedown on Silva if he wouldn't had done that dumbass shit.

[Vandelay]

Wiseman these guys are clowns. Weidman absolutely can and I believe he will beat Silva. Not a chance in hell Silva subs weidman from his back and Weidman will put him there. Good probability he subs Silva if he gets him down in multiple rounds.

[Thewisemann]

Yea Weidman is taking the belt sat.

[edman5555]

What if silva catches him standing?

[poopoo333]

YEAH LUKE, YOU HAVE AN OPINION SO YOU ARE A FUCKING CLOWN!

[poopoo333]

I will be betting Weidman but don't think it's a sure thing. I just think he is a legit threat to Silva as a lot of other people do.

I can see this fight going one of three ways:

1. Weidman is able to work his game and go through some adversity and get a hard fought win.

2. Weidman succeeds early with his game but after 2.5 rounds or so he will start to slow down and Silva will be able to turn it up and stuff some TDs by being the fresher fighter.

3. Weidman gets caught early by some crazy flash strike and we are robbed of seeing an actual fight.


As for Weidman/Sonnen comparisons...I think Weidman is technically better than Sonnen, but not as powerful and aggressive which was part of why Sonnen was able to get the fight to the ground. However, Weidman isn't stupid. He knows he is going to have to go forward and not be passive. Sonnen was stuffed in round 2 against Silva a few times before doing that stupid ass spinning backfist. I think if Weidman had Silva against the cage like Sonnen did, he would have been able to get the fight down in my opinion.


Gonna bet and root for Weidman but I am not super confident because you know...it IS Anderson Silva.

Can't wait for this fight

[edman5555]

I am thinking about betting silva. I am pissed all the lines went to shit on pierce, edson and frankie. Fucking -700 on pierce. I thought i could get -400 or so. Pissed. Also theres no p,us 3.5 points on leben. I was really hoping for that. I a, super confident leben can win a round.

[Thewisemann]

I give Weidman about 70% chance to win.

[edman5555]

Wow. I feel like I am missing something serious here.
