^ I think Florian will do it now. Initially I thought Maynard was the play... but I have changed my mind. Florian is the new GSP.

You going to bet him then?

No.

I have made my bets. I am done.

^^ I still might add Randy to the parlay project... but for some reason I can't pull the trigger on that one.

What makes you think Florian is the new GSP?

Re: UFC 118 Penn-Edgar 2 Toney-Couture

^^ just a joke. His wrestling has looked really good though, despite not having a wrestling background, hitting takedowns on guys he is not supposed to take down. He also has shown improvement in his boxing... plus he trains with GSP.

Florian Maynard is wayy to close to call.

I think you might see the error in this statement on Saturday. If Kenflo doesn't finish, then he dominates like he did with Huerta. That's my prediction.

I think this might be a good night for U dogs. Miranda, Davis, Salter, Lentz, Alves, Reudiger...these guys all seem to have a big chance.

.25u on Ruediger.

Fuck it, it's +325 on a guy who's 17-5 and riding a 6 fight win streak against a fighter who looked less than stellar in his last outing.

He has MO Lawal in his corner???

Re: UFC 118 Penn-Edgar 2 Toney-Couture

I just watched GR versus Wander Braga. Braga hadn't fought in 6 years. Reud dropped him with a punch and then sunk in the Guillotine. Reudigers standup does not look very good. I'm tempted to say J LO via decision or tko.

Re: UFC 118 Penn-Edgar 2 Toney-Couture

Ruediger is a grappler. His standup is weak... but then again Lauzon is not exactly setting the world on fire with his striking either. Still Lauzon should have the edge. Lauzon should win fairly handily if he has the right game plan. If he decides to get into scrambles with Ruediger, something bad could happen. But most likely, Lauzon would get top position and win on the mat as well. Lauzon should beat him. But Reudiger has some surprising grappling. But I doubt he can make it work against Lauzon since he will most likely be on his back. He is more of a top position grappler.

I originally thought Reudiger was live, but the more I think about it, the more I think the style matchup favors Lauzon. Plus it is short notice and Reudiger is not known for his conditioning and work ethic.

You are right, Lauzon is a lock.

You are right, Lauzon is a lock.

Then add him to your locks parlay. . .

Re: UFC 118 Penn-Edgar 2 Toney-Couture

Maybe I should... I am going to sleep on it. But a Lauzon/Couture parlay within a parlay would get me where I need to be...
