Andre Winner/Joe Lauzon/Marcus Davis parlay
I think I’m gonna be rich.
Toronto FC - Where road games are forfeited and we STILL have no idea how to play from behind.
Salter will lose you money.

Ever since
he celebrated “winning” when Jason Macdonald broke his leg i’ve wanted to see him knocked out.
Nah it'll be Winner but I have chickened out of some picks in my parlay
I’m very confident in Lauzon winning and I think Davis is really being underrated here.

I would pick Winner straight up
but it should be a close fight and with those odds I have to pick Lentz
oh wait guess I was wrong, $300 left...
fuck it, I’m going for the Toney/Maynard/Edgar parlay. Plus a straight bet on Lentz.
Wow, according to that chart Toney is given a 2% better chance to win than Edgar. That is interesting…
Time again to slay some face.

I just picture Diaz thinking he can stand and trade with Davis and getting KO’d
You are all UFC plants.
Well, there is always a 1st time
But I don’t see Davis being the guy to pull it off somehow. Diaz is just a monster now, I never thought that going up in weight could make someone better, but in this case it did because he was walking around 190 and taking off 20lbs in 2 days trying to make 155, and his strength was gone.
I love to watch the Diaz brothters fight ,but...
they seem to have problems with two types of fighters: overpowering wrestlers that can put them on the ground and keep them there and legitimate boxers. I think the reasoning is the ‘Diaz mentality’.
Both brothers are stubborn, hard headed cardio machines, that truly believe that they can beat you at your own game. Wanna lay on top of me, that’s fine, i’ll submit you from my back. Wanna stand and bang, I will jab with you all day.
Once again, great viewing, but you won’t see many champions who fight that way.
You are all UFC plants.

Jesus Christ
More people picked Toney than Edgar? You people are ridiculous.

Precisely what I was thinking.
How a higher percentage of people chose Toney winning over Couture than Edgar winning over Penn is …well actually its fairly revealing of how mma fans think.
Holy Mother of God
You think how people make picks on a free web game like MMAPlayground actually says something meaningful?
Pretty revealing of how some people here think.
People are that sold on Toney's power?
Toronto FC - Where road games are forfeited and we STILL have no idea how to play from behind.
He HAD power
Back when he was at 168.
I don’t understand why anyone would pick Toney unless they want to win a lot of money.

Randy’s like 47 or something. Even Coleman tagged him a couple times. So I guess it’s understandable… sort of.

Some of the people who have knocked him down (and/or out)
Pack some power (Liddell, Lesnar, Big Nog).

Im all over Davis, I dont understand that
And Im really suprised that No one is picking Edgar, since he won the first fight… But I got BJ too
No they don't
But they apparently don’t think highly enough of Edgar.

Maynard/Davis/Toney
Descision,KO,KO.
I dunno why but I cant seem to place these parlay bets without going for some serious underdogs. Sure will payoff nice though if my picks are right.
Frankie Edgar has less chance than James Toney
Your argument is invalid.
Bob Arum thinks I'm a white Nazi skinhead even though I'm a brown grad student (with hair)
Yeah, I think Maia is winning too. But the odds for Miranda are too good.. could very well end up being decided on the feet, with Maia being outpointed

Penn/Maynard/Davis parlay.
It will happen (mostly no, but probably yes).
I specializes in grammar fail.
Osipczak/ WInner/ Davis in a $500 parlay and various cash on others.
Let’s try that.

Im a mmaplayground n00b
and im having trouble with my fantasy picks. mmaplayground is telling me i didn’t pick anything for any event. but i did. even changed them a couple times in the last couple days. my wagers are still showing up as i set them but my fantasy picks have pretty much disapeared. Do i have to do something to submit my picks? it seems to have locked in my wagers already. I know im a dumbass but could i get some feedback on this?
