Voelker isnt bad but robbie looked really good against koscheck. I think it is hard to gauge what he will look like in top form.
I think masvidal should be a terrible matchup for cheisa. Does anyone disagree? Cheisa seems pretty one dimensional.
Dont know much about mac danzig. I really havent sen him fight much. I understand he has some sort of wrestling style. Ive also heard melvin guillard has been training really hard. I generally dont like to bet on or against melvin for obvious reasons.
Im not touching ellenberger or rory.
I like dj over moraga on paper. I havent really watched moraga fight at all though. I understand he has a good wrestling game.1 unit = 300 $Comment

Lawler and Voekler should be close imo...I don't think the line should be that high on Lawler. The thing about the Lawler/Kos fight is this: Kos worked his wrestling game for almost the whole round, and then Lawler ended up on top in a scramble if I recall correctly...that's when he pounded Kos out. I actually bet on Lawler in that fight and figured the line would have value if Kos came in and did his stand and trade shit..he shot for a TD and it was clear he came to wrestle. At that point, I was kissing my money goodbye on that one. With Lawler and Voekler, it should be fairly close everywhere and I do not believe that Voekler is gong to get KO'd early or be completely outmatched anywhere. His short notice concerns me, but I think it'll be a good and competitive fight.
I bet on Chiesa. Chiesa always finds a way to win and his a decent grappler. Masvidal is a favorite for sure, but I don't think Chiesa should be +240.
Danzig vs Guillard=battle of the bums. I'll be on Danzig small if he hits + money.
Ellenberger has the value at close to 2 to 1. MacDonald has very overrated wrestling. I think Rory wins in the end due to Jake's cardio issues, but do not be surprised if Jake puts Rory on his back. There was also a conversation on twitter last night about this fight. Some key points:
Rory is averaging nearly 4 takedowns a fight and has an 89% TDD. That's GREAT.
Most of that 89% is 0/14 from Condit, Nate, Guymon, and gassed BJ.
Taken down twice by Pyle. Wasn't able to take Pyle down.
he also hasn't faced any wrestlers (BJ doesn't count)
I think Jake's lack of pacing will be his undoing.
normally if he doesn't get early KO, he wrestles. Hieron, Sanchez (referring to Jake)
Moraga at +375 is good. It'll be close.Comment
