UFN 23/Fight for the Troops

[poopoo333]

Guymon is probably a bet for me too @ +130

I'm not sure why he is +130. I don't see what Johnson has done that is so good. I am pretty sure in both of the fights he has won in the UFC, he was being beaten handily before winning...I guess you can call him the "comeblack kid". And to use some MMA math, Johnson was dominated by Wilks everywhere...and I think Guymon would beat Wilks everywhere. I think Guymon wins a decision.

Its official the UFC cant get any gayer now unless they bring in Boy George to be referee

[MMA_scientist]

I honestly don't even know what that means. I don't visit facebook or any other pre-teen phenonena sites, so I really have no idea how you can stream something on facebook. Does that mean, they are going to stream it on the UFC's facebook page? If so, can anyone view that page? Why don't they just stream it in UFC.com like a grown ass man would?

[trotterz]

I think it will stream on both facebook and ufc.com

[trotterz]

I just double cheked ... it will only be on facebook and not ufc.com, sorry about the wrong info

Well good luck.

Just know that my tricep extension with the rope attachment is legendary.

Not to defend Facebook or anything, but Facebook started out as a site that was only for college students (something the movie got right). And at this point, it seems like fucking everyone is on there, even old people, like my dad.

The way I first heard about Facebook is actually a semi-interesting story. I was down in Guatemala at this Spanish school and there was this girl there. We were in the computer room and she was on her Facebook page, and she said something about it, and I naturally responded with, "What the fuck is Facebook?"

She said, "It's like MySpace, but only for college students and without all the bullshit."

I looked at it, filed it away, and went on with my life. Never would I have guessed that it would become what it has. Nor did I ever think it would essentially replace MySpace, which just seemed huge at the time.

Anyone check out that "Lights out" show on FX? (Ex HW boxing champ, going broke) I'm not really one to watch weekly shows, but I thought this one was pretty good.

Enough with the white guy boxing dramas. How many movies are there about boxers? A lot. How many of them are about white boxers. Almost of them. Racists. It was enough already after Rocky, but then we had 6 Rocky movies, the Russell Crowe one, the Marky Mark one, and now this guy. "Lights Out" is already taken anyway. Racists.

So I am boycotting the show.

Either it becomes the new email, which I am fine with, or it dies- which would be even better. But all I know is that it annoys the shit out of me when people text while I am in the room with them and it is even worse when I am trying to have a fun time and some douche is taking cell pictures and uploading them to his facebook page like the world is going to implode if all of his "friends" don't know what a great time he is having at that very second. Basically the whole concept pisses me off.

Its gay as fuck.

[MMA_scientist]

Its gay as fuck.

Basically. That is what I was trying to say, but you put it much more succinctly.

I am looking at a bunch of dogs here... I am not going to bet all of them though.

I already have a small play on Wiman.

I am looking at

Guymon at +130
Beltran at +180
Hague at +210
Alves at +180

I actually feel that Melvin and McKenzie have some value too, but not going to bet those.

I feel strongly that Guymon should be favored over Johnson. I just think he is going to be too strong and better on the ground. Guymon is pretty good.

I think Beltran is going to take Barry down and pound on him or submit him. I mean, Cro Cop subbed Barry without even putting his hooks in. Barry is a whitebelt. I don't remember if Crocop knocked him down with a strike or if he took him down with a takedown. If Cro Cop can score a takedown, Beltran probably can too.

I guess I am leaning: Guymon, Beltran and Wiman. But that would be mean 2 of those guys would have to win for me to come out ahead... so I can't do all of them. I sort of wish I could take back the Wiman bet now. I didn't think the odds would be this lopsided on some of these fights.
