2015 MMA BETTING CHAMP

Wand is shot, but Le sucks too. New Wand is like a neutered dog, and Le has been fighting B level fighters. Scott Smith is terrible. Hard fight to call... I think either guy could win. Probably a close to even line.2012: +19.33

No, just people that disagree with your position. You know, sometimes it happens.
If Wand and Smith fought right now, Smith might just KO him in the first 2 minutes of the fight. While Le would most likely beat his ass.
I hope the Wand love is reflected in the price, but I doubt it.Comment

I think it's a little premature to start saying Scott Smith beats Wanderlei. Let's not forget Silva cracked the hell out of Leben just before that collar tie, and quite a few fighters would have gone down from a shot like that. But because it was Leben he went all Mark Hunt on him. Smith would fold under that kind of treatment just like Bisping did, except Smith has less than a third of Bispings footwork and head movement. I'm sorry but Le's entire MMA Career has been a hype job. A fight with Vitor would have been life threatening, and a fight with Wanderlei is hit or miss depending on whether he can set up a flush shot to turn out the lights. But in no way is there any kind of justification to have Le anything worse than -125.2013: +8.24u(increased unit size on 5/19)

He for damn sure hasn't fought anyone, I'll say that. But I feel that just like Cormier's wrestling background gives him instant MMA relevance, Cung Le's kickboxing background does the same for him. I mean, the dude went 17-0 and held multiple ISKA titles along the way. ISKA is basically like the UFC when it comes to Kickboxing in the United States, especially at the time when Cung was in his prime. He is not like some of these other "kickboxing champs" that we often see get labeled as such. He is a very competent and dangerous striker and is fully prepared for any such affairs in MMA.I heart cockComment

He's also 40 years old and is more concerned with acting and eating cookies and ice cream than MMA.Triple-six killers in this motherfucker runnin shitComment

Well Wand is old, too. REALLY old in fight years.I heart cockComment

True.
But I was mostly arguing against the Cormier comparison. The dude doesn't take the sport 1/100th as seriously as Cormier.
And Wand beat Bisping last year, who is better than anyone Le has ever even thought about fighting.Triple-six killers in this motherfucker runnin shitComment

Well the Cormier comparison was not exact, but my point was just that he is awesome at something that is very relevant in MMA.
And I'm not saying Wand is not still good. The Bisping win was legit. He can still fight, but even beyond the chin issue, he just doesn't have the speed and power that he used to. All I'm saying is that I think it's a bad style matchup because, even at 40, I think Cung might be too fast and too technical. Wand has never been technical and used to get by on just pure aggression and knocking dudes the fuck out. I just have doubts about him being able to brawl his way to a win here.I heart cockComment
