UFC on Versus 5

Reinhardt trained at Wand fight team for his last one as well. Honestly he looks like he should actually win that fight...

[MMA_scientist]

I doubt he can submit Cole and Cole will probably end up subbing him from his back.

I am going with my original inclination of Benevidez/Miller. Maybe do a small parlay on Benevidez/Figeroa as well.

[Ludo]

O'Brien kind of sucks. He may have some good subs on the ground but I don't think he has the takedowns to land on top with Cole.

[MMA_scientist]

Does anyone have anything to say about Obrian/Miller? Anyone, anyone at all.

[Ludo]

Is training at Wand fight team going to help his takedowns and choke defense, though? His only real path to victory is taking Figueroa down and hoping to pound him out or ride him out without getting choked to death in the process.

^ the Figeroa fight was not broadcast, so it is not on that. Thanks though.

So what you are saying is that Figeroa's opposition is every bit as bad as Reinhardt's. Reinhardt is 41 though. He is training with Wand fight team for this fight though, I think he just trained at home for every fight prior to this.

[Svino]

Someone find a vid of Figeroa/McDonald. I agree Reinhardt does not belong in there. But he has managed to rack up some wins somehow... I know his opposition is pretty terrible, but you still have to have something to win that many fights.

I can't find an isolated vid, but I found UFN 24 here: http://www.letmewatchthis.ch/watch-2...Fight-Night-24

Also for a strength-of-schedule comparison, here are the current (Sherdog) records of all the people Reinhardt and Figeroa have beaten, listed from most recent to earliest:

22-15 (Del Hawkins)

0-2

Figueroa:
17-9 (Johnny Bedford)
7-14

1-13 (WTF)
0-3

Fine. Sold. Everyone is on Figeroa.

What do we think About TJ Obrian and Cole Miller? My only fear is that Grant may be looking for the takedown and he may be able to survive the onslaught, though probably not.

I need another bet for my parlay. Benevidez or C. Miller?

7.5u on Figueora @ -255

LOCK.

all in on Fig at -285. im never more sure about a guy getting whoop. reighart was brought back to make the mongolian wolf look good. he will get destroyed. im gonna bet more on Fig by ko for better odd. also like noke. i think hes a pretty good fighter despite losing to chris mcray (sp).

[poopoo333]

SBJJ...I am with you on Oliveira all the way. I still regret not laying more money down on him @ + odds.


As for parlays I am probably gonna do a 3 fight parlay with Cole Miller/Amir/Hettes. I might lay off the Hettes though and stick to just Amir/Miller.


Dan Hardy is going to end up the favorite imo. Gay.

[poopoo333]

I also bet on that fucking annoying fuck C.B. Dollaway @-220.

[poopoo333]

Explain please.

Reindhart sucks. He is old. He is moving down to 135 for the first time in his career and he is already shredded @ 145:



That's gonna be a hard cut

Figueora was able to get out of tough spots on the ground against McDonald and actually get into some good positions in a "grueling fight" where it was non stop. And McDonald is one of the next big things imo. Reindhardt wins by sub in his fights against cans, and he won't be subbing Figueora imo. He showed good sub defense against McDonald. He also took that fight on less than a weeks notice against McDonald, so Figueora should be in better shape for this fight then he was for that one.

Basically Reinhardt sucks dick.
