Great writeup
Thanks for the work, I’ll be checking these out again before I get on my flight Friday. Rec’d.
Semantics
I’m not sure if you did the calculations like this for every fighter but for Jon Jones at +190, a hundred dollar bet only returns a profit of $190. The other $100 is just your original investment back.
Wow, thiago Silva was a betting dog going into his matchup with Houston Alexander. Shows what a huge hypetrain Houston was riding on at the time. My have things turned out different. Now Thiago is fighting for a chance to get a title shot and Houston is on the fringe of going back to local circuit shows.
The Korean Stun Gun currently has awesome value imo.
Yeah, who got the final Death Blow? 'Cause I thought that Hawaiian guy had it comin' to him. - C. K.

Lyoto Machida vs. Thiago Silva
Opening Line: Lyoto Machida -250 vs. Thiago Silva +225
Current Line: Lyoto Machida -350 (5Dimes) vs. Thiago Silva +226 (Pinnacle)
Trend: Silva
if you make more money betting on Machida now then you did when the line opened wouldnt that mean it was trending towards Machida
^What he said.
Now it costs you $350 to make $100 (instead of $250).
I am the bastard love child of Junie Browning and Diamond Dave Kaplan.
Anything can happen, yadi ya, but BJ Penn is about 75% as good as people say he is, and about 50% as good as he thinks he is. GSP should be more heavily favored, imo. GSP by rear naked choke in the 4th.
And c’mon. Silva is a brawler; Machida lives to kill brawlers. Should be an exciting KO for the Dragon.
“GSP by rear naked choke in the 4th.”
Has GSP ever finished a fight by rear naked, and if not, do you REALLY think he locks this in against one of the best BJJ guys in the world?
I’m saying BJ will be so gassed by the 4th that my grandmother could finish him… or did you miss the part when he just laid there and let Hughes have his way with him?
I guess that’s the thing that bothers me the most about the BJ hype; I have never seen a top level fighter just shit himself that badly.
If that’s the case, GSP is really only 5% as good as his fans think he is. From the way his fans talk, you’d think GSP is a demi-god who can’t be beaten. In their memory, the loss to Serra has been completely blocked off. Penn has lost in the third round ever, with all his fights being competitive. GSP has been submitted and KO’ed in the first round before. Obviously, one of the two is a mentally weak fighter. Take a guess who it is. BJ Penn with no cardio problem = money in the bank.
We all know the Serra win was a total fluke as was proved in the dominating rematch. Other than that, GSP lost to a guy that pounded BJ out for a TKO victory.
How about Penn losing to Jens?
The Little Evil back then was a UFC champ and at the top of his game. Pulver has gotten worse and worse over the year. On the one hand you claim GSP’s loss was a fluke and on the next you dismiss Penn for losing to Pulver 6 years ago. One is recent, the other isn’t. One loss is a five round grind, the other is a demolition within two minutes.
BTW, Penn is the only fighter to beat Hughes (and badly at that) during his reign of terror.
no, I was merely drawing a comparison that those loses were flukes with respect to the guys they lost to. Yes, Jens was a champion but we all know he’s nowhere close to BJ’s level and never was even at his best. That was my point. They both have losses on their records that mean nothing to their overall skill levels and they both avenged those losses soon after.
And BTW..GSP beat Hughes down 2 x and brutally one of the times…far more brutal than BJ did. But I digress..GSP is def gonna own BJ this weekend. You can count on that. The GSP of today has too many tools for BJ to handle. Especially at 170.
GSP did beat Hughes twice. However, Penn is the only one to do it to beat Hughes in his prime. BJ beat him in under a round whereas it took two GSP two rounds to do so both times. But that’s irrelevant.
It should be a competitive fight but anyone who think it’s an easy fight for GSP has their heads in the clouds.
Def don’;t think it’s going to be easy per se, but I do think he’s going to beat Penn more convincingly than he did the 1st time around.
Plus, some might argue that Hughes was still a great fighter when GSP beat him the 1st time. I’ll give you the 2nd time being a bit out of his element but still..he’s matt hughes and he’s still in his young 30’s.
I just hope the fight goes at least 3 rds I’m psyched for it.
On the contrary, most BJ fans think it’s a difficult fight for either fighter. Only the GSP ones think it will be an easy KO or submission. Which fans are more realistic?
I think I speak for a good chunk of people picking GSP when I say that I expect a decision win.

Good value on Gono?
I know he lost to Hardy but, he’s beaten some serious opponents. Fitch is the superior fighter but is he worth it at -600?
Wellisch has good value here
Seems like a bit of a large underdog versus Jake O’Brien, no?
There's a WAMMA belt in my Cracker Jacks!
