I wonder if the detroit demographics compelled dana white to put less “white skin heads” as Arum put it and more fighters of Rampages complexion.

Fight of the night odds?

Honestly, my money would be on Lauzon V. Soto. I can easily see Rampage/Machida and Penn/Hughes breaking my heart.

Also, if Davis/ Boetsch is even remotely competitive I’ll be a happy guy.

Fight of the Night is easily

Tyson Griffin vs. Nik Lentz I don’t see how you can too that.

Nik Lentz is the black hole of bonuses. His style is anti-exciting. Even Tyson can’t make that fight exciting enough to be FOTN, in my opinion. I think BJ/Hughes will be FOTN. Or Munoz/A-Train.

That's weird…

Sherdog lists Lullo’s win over Castro as a Gogoplata, but MMA.tv shows it as an Omoplata.

Either way, Edson Barboza is going to wreck house. That dude is a monster. He’s got some BRUTAL knockouts to his credit.

yeah, i didn’t say it was the CORRECT pick! but i’ve done so bad on mma playground this season that i might as well just close my eyes and pick randomly at this point.

Would I be foolish putting £ down on Page?

by Cpt Mason on Nov 16, 2010 4:32 PM EST reply actions  

I honestly would invest in Hughes/Penn. How Matt Hughes is an underdog with a 3 fight win streak, and the naturally bigger man against a 165 lb’er on a 2 fight win streak is baffling. I think Vegas is going a little to hard on name recognition here, I mean I know it’s bj penn and all but even before the lines came out I thought Hughes would take it.

by ssstute89 on Nov 16, 2010 4:43 PM EST via mobile up reply actions  

*2 fight lose streak (?)

Yeah the Hughes line is puzzling. I would think BJ is the underdog.

by Cpt Mason on Nov 16, 2010 4:44 PM EST up reply actions  

Not to mention Penn is a person that I think gets Hughes’ blood flowing enough to actually train. I just don’t see Rampage winning, he’s going to get that leg chopped out pretty quickly and then Lyoto will batter him and eventually TKO him.

Name recognition

Now Matt Hughes is a nobody?

Hey UFC4 go fuck yourself, how about that? Fucking punk, I was just asking for the source that says lesnar gets 5 mill a fight, it’s obvious one does not exist. Bunch of gabronis on a site pulling figures out of your ass.

Hey is tj obrian the kid who got ko’d to get in the house on tuf this season? The guy that called himself the spider.

by ssstute89 on Nov 16, 2010 4:48 PM EST via mobile reply actions  

He got caught real early so we didn't see if he's good or not

but by looking at his record he looks pretty fucking good. All of his fights ended in submission and most of them by triangle. His weakness seems to be armbars though.

by av1o3 on Nov 16, 2010 6:13 PM EST up reply actions  

I like me a Rampage/Hughes parlay. Also like the numbers on Foster and Griffin.

I’m betting the house on Phil Davis and getting a bicycle in return.

Boetsch is worth a small play

Davis is rightfully the favorite but that line is a little big.
