UFC 136

Agree that Kenny is not appreciably bigger than Aldo. They have to weigh within 5 or 10 pounds of each other... it isn't going to make a difference. His height might make a difference.

Edman mentioned Aldo adding mass. There was an article the other day where he said he was considering moving to LW permanently because the cut is getting very difficult. Maybe Aldo was sick last time, maybe he is getting too big to make that weight. I just don't really want to find out while I have money on him.

That said, I do expect him to win. I just think Kenny's durability gives him an out.

I thought the movie industry was making the machinist 2 and that auditions were being held around the beginning of summer. Guess i was wrong

Actually I think the fact that he came from Middleweight on TUF and Welterweight after that before making his lightweight debut is why someone might "Autopilot" that he is the bigger guy(which he very much is). When it was announced the Featherweight division was coming to the UFC he tweeted saying he couldn't cut that much weight. It wasn't until getting dominated by Gray Maynard that he decided to actually try, and thus holocaust Florian was shown to the world.

Just think you are plain wrong when you say "He very much is" bigger than Aldo. He actually looked smaller than Nunes did. But I guess we will just disagree. Was he bigger than Maynard also? I mean he did cut all the way from MW like you said.

Bottom line. IMO Kenny is just not a very big, thick, bulky(whatever you want to call it) guy. And this is coming from a guy who is built alot like him.

Did he look "big" compared to Nunes? Not really. He looked sick.

I mean, WW Kenny is not as big as MW Kenny. Just like FW Kenny is not as big as LW Kenny. To get down to FW, he not only had to flush a bunch of water out of his system, but he also had to lose mass. If Aldo is not bigger, then I expect them to be about the same size.

BTW, Kenny already looked like Holocaust Florian at LW. Now he looks like some shit out of Lord of the Rings.

100% correct IMO. Just because a guy drops down a class does not automatically make him the bigger fighter. You see it in Boxing all the time. The fact that Kenny is dropping down will not make him bigger. Using that logic, he should have been the biggest LW fighter on the planet since he once fought at MW.

Damn, I forgot Maia was on this card too. There is some money to be made here... just got to figure out the right combination.

Maia-Guillard
Maia-Sonnen-Guillard
Maia-Sonnen-Guillard-Aldo

I am leaning Maia-Guillard for my big play. Maybe something small on the other fights.

I am going to bet ALL those above parlays. I will also parlay Maynard individually with each guy for a unit each.

Are you most confident with Maia?

I hate that I was right about Cantwell's line.

[poopoo333]

I'm happy you were right. I put a small bet on Beltran @+180, there is a good chance he will lose but I thought Miocic would open below -150. I am annoyed that Phan is -170 as well, he was like -130 in the last time they were supposed to fight IIRC.

[SPX]

Are you betting on Massenzio?

And I think Phan's line will come down.

[poopoo333]

Yeah I bet him..I think he should be like -130

[SPX]

This is Cantwell's comeback fight.

[poopoo333]

This is Cantwell's comeback fight.

I hope it goes as well as Jardine's comeback fight against Hamill and Prangley.

[SPX]

And I hope you get an in-grown toenail.
