Sanchez as a wrestler is supposed to look tempting at that line, but I’m putting a 100 $ on Kampmann – call me a fanboy.

You know Joe, Brandon Vera is considered to be a Heavyweight George St.Pierre because he just comes, comes, and comes again... -Mike Goldberg, UFC 57
Cheick Kongo looks like a cross between Evander Holyfield and pop singer Seal!
Melvin Guilard looks like a little Kevin Randelman!

Fanboy betting
Is a great way to lose money.
As a rule of thumb, I never bet on fights involving fighters I have an emotional connection to, positive or negative.

Word.
Lost mad money on even money on Wanderlei vs. Rampage III that way. But I’ve seen Martin train, he’s ready to handle this.

Training ain't fighting
And I feel like Kampmann has a bit of a history of losing the fights he needs to get over the hump as a contender.

You disregard the importance of the striking advantage; except for Shields he’s lost to overwhelming strikers. If he can control the pace and utilize his takedown defense it’s another realm.

He always strikes me as a bit of a front runner who can be broken. I don’t have any factual examples to support this claim, but I just feel that diego will wear him down with top control, while avoiding submission attempts

What the fuck?!
Alessio is the underdog against someone who’s only had 4 fights? That seems like a damn good bet
It's this guy:

Keep Firing, Assholes!
Time to put some meat in your pain sandwich.
Seems like it but rightfully so, he’s coming off a long lay off and Weidman has a lot of hype due to his grappling he’s shown. He’s an excellent wrestler and did very well in Adcc

Sanchez and Dollaway are looking interesting
Kampmann is a gamer, but Diego is going to be bringing the hot fire.
Dollaway in particular
Munoz is being way oversold.

It has to be his phillipino appeal. His wrestling certainly hasnt translated well to mma wrestling

Dollaway's better in the striking department me thinks
He looked good against Goran Reljic. While Munoz has power, if you pick him apart from the outside a la Okami you can tire him and take away his strengths
munoz striking is oversold
and i woulds say palhares is deep in the under card its just since the merger they’ve had a weird line up as far as the undercard an whom is on it. i wouldn’t say it has much to do with his statements about greasing
Aaron Simpson is the 30 something Randy Couture of the 40 somethings. - Mike Goldberg
Agreed. He’s shown tremendous growth as a fighter since his loss to Lawlor.

Sanchez, Diabate, and Dollaway all are solid underdog picks.
Possibly Page if you’re feeling risky.
