Re: UFC 125

SPX, why Leben? I haven't looked at this fight at all, just wondering.

I think Leben's biggest hole is his questionable wrestling. But even that part of his game isn't bad. Leben is actually bad ass. He's good all around. Maybe not great. But definitely good.

Stann has obviously improved. I didn't expect him to beat Cantwell, but he did. I didn't expect him to beat Massenzio, but he not only beat him . . . he subbed him. Which I think is impressive.

I don't think Stann will take this one took the ground voluntarily. I think Leben will determine where the fight goes, which means that I'm expecting a striking competition. And under those circumstances I think Leben's experience edge and supernatural power will make the difference.

With that said, I'm nervous about this one. Stann could very well win.

Yeah, all good points. What is kind of keeping me away from this fight is Leben's recent DUI. Who knows where his head is at/how his training is going?

It's true. Who knows. I'm hoping for the best.

For Leben, isn't a DUI like, an average Friday?

Lebens wrestling defense was good against Aaron Simpson.

Re: UFC 125

Brian Stann hits hard as fuck. This will be a no bet for Me because it will likely be a slugfest and for once I'm not so sure Leben will get the better of it, Stann is strong as an ox.

I highly doubt Stann will knock Leben out. Leben doesn't really get knocked out, sans the Anderson Silva fight. But I guess it could happen.

Also, Stann hasn't really been doing the power thing lately. He's been more trying to be a technique guy. Watch his third fight with Steve Cantwell.

Re: UFC 125

I am thinking hard on getting something down on Leben. I always thought Stann was average at best.

Re: UFC 125

Edgar by decision @ +195 looks tempting. Probably wont bet it though.
