UFC 132 July 2nd

[SPX]

I don't see why Silva can't knock Leben out. He can hit really hard. He did knock out Quinton Jackson two times.

He knocked out QJ twice several years ago when he was a LHW on roids. Since coming back to the UFC he has only knocked out Jardine. He failed to knock out Chuck (who has been KOd by everyone else since that fight), Rampage, Franklin or Bisping. This all leads me to believe that he's not the KO artist that he once was. Combine that with Leben's almost uncrackable chin and I just don't think common sense would lead one to believe that Wand knocking Leben out is a particularly likely scenario.

Leben is also getting old in fighter years, his chin will inevitably detiorate sometime soon.

It's inevitable? I mean, it's likely to happen eventually. I don't see why is has to be "sometime soon." He's only been knocked out twice--by Silva and Stann--and, not only does Stann have serious power, but it's widely believed that Leben was sick going into the fight. If in fact that's true then I think him getting KOd has little relevance to the quality of his chin.

He has been hit a lot and is a brawler. All that damage adds up over time, it isn't just a matter of how many times you get plain KO'd. And its not like being sick makes you get KO'd, it just made him perform shitty which led to getting KO'd. He said he was feeling shitty because he pigged out on candy and sugar after weigh ins when he isn't used to that type of food

[SPX]

I heard he was running a fever when he went into the cage. If that's true, then yes, that can lead to a person getting KOd. He didn't even go out. It was a TKO. He just fell down and wasn't clear-headed enough to continue.

[poopoo333]

Well Leben said himself yesterday that he was shitting and throwing up non stop because of his post weigh in pig out on sugar.

[SPX]

I think the previous comment was made by one of his trainers.

Really, there's no way to know for sure. I just don't think Silva's going to knock him out.

[poopoo333]

Oh, me neither. But I just don't think it would be crazy if it did happen though. I think Wandy will win by being the all around better fighter though.

i have .5u on silva by decision

[SPX]

War Silva by decision!

BTW, I found out I could get Bader via decision at -160 at Sportsbook. I would probably go ahead and do that if I hadn't already dropped a little bit on Tito.

[poopoo333]

I have a 2 dollar wiseman special on this card and Bader by (T)KO is on it. So fuck that Bader by decision shit

[Vandelay]

If any1 else watch the weigh ins, does matt wiman always look that underwhelming?

[edman5555]

i am trying to watch them but i cant get any that will load

[SPX]

Anyone know why Bookmaker will only let you do parlays on the day of the event? I don't even get the logic behind that.

[flyinggogoplata]

^^^that sucks, they probably do that to make sure you get the shittiest line possible on your parleys

[SPX]

The weird thing is that it's only MMA. If you click the Parlay link then there's literally like 30 other sports you can do parlays on whenever you want, but with MMA it's just the day of.

[Thewisemann]

Tito is bigger than Bader, suprisingly
