UFC 144: Edgar Vs. Henderson Betting Lines
So, my Vagner Rocha underdog pick at UFC on Fuel didn't exactly pay off. Actually, it got knocked out. For UFC 144, there's really not a lot going on betting-wise. I won't comment on the main event because I don't really see any value in either side. The same goes for the co-main. Is there value in Mark Hunt at +230? As much as I hate to say this (Go Hunt!), there probably isn't. In fact, the whole main card is somewhat devoid of value to be honest.
Things get a little better on the undercard. I like Mizugaki at -200. There could possibly be some value in Steve Cantwell at +195 since Fukuda is coming off some injuries and has been out for a year, but the more I look at it, the more I want to shy away from it. And I refuse to say that Mitsuoka is good value against Gomi at +175 because Gomi is the Fireball Kid and cannot be beaten (I don't want to hear your lies about Diaz/Guida/Florian. It never happened).
Anyway, here's a look at the UFC 144 lines (undercard after the jump):

I think
that this is the first time that Frankie is the favorit
Crazy to think this is the first time he’s been favored, and it’s his fourth defense.
I rarely tweet

he was favored against Maynard in his last bout
Ben Henderson @ even money is pretty solid

puttin money down on the sexy
im hoping the drop to 170 has increased his gas tank to at least the 2nd round.

its very rare that dropping weight increases anyones gas tank
the only fighter i can think of that happening to is Bj Penn because he comes to fight at 155 in better shape then 170. Other then that it makes no sense to me.

thats exacrly my point...the sexy is going to be showing up in much better shape at a lower weight class
he is a 5’8 japanese male…his frame is deffinitly not suited to carry 185 pounds of bulk. Looking at all his fights in the ufc so far, i always noticed how disproportional his arms looked to his torso; the forearms seemed far too petite compared to the rest of him. That, combined with the fact that the sexy being a tactical genius and already doing at least one trial weight cut, has me convinced that his judo base and never ending agression will see him edging out shields in a grinding, hard fought descision

This fight actually has me conflicted
Hunt probably has a better ground game than Pat Barry (holy shit did I just say that?) and Barry was able to tag and beat the breaks off of Kongo.
At the same time, Kongo just needs one takedown to make Hunt look average.
by discoandherpes on Feb 22, 2012 12:24 AM EST up reply actions
Hunt’s takedown defense really isn’t all that bad; the problem is that he has zero submission defense. He was the one who took down Overeem in their fight, for example. Kongo doesn’t really have much of a sub game, at least that I’ve seen. It may just be sentimentality but I’m kinda leaning toward Hunt.

This is a very big night for the WEC
Pettis is a favorite and he arguably shouldn’t be, and a loss would seriously derail any title hopes for the near future.
Bartimus dropped to 145, knocked out Tyson Griffin (he missed weight, didn’t he?), and now if he wins against Hioki he has a serious case for #1 contender.
Bendo could really increase the WEC’s LW division cred if he can beat Edgar and become an unlikely champion.
Let’s see if they take advantage.

Bendo has almost no power on the feet. If Henderson wins it'll be through his strength and submission skills.

Ben Henderson has 2 career KOs
One was Shane Roller, who is an unranked LW, and someone else in regional circuits.
Dropping Guida twice? You make it sound like it’s rare. Off the top of my head, Sanchez, Florian, and Huerta all knocked him down.
Henderson’s boxing is not very good. His ground and pound if anything is what’s vicious.

Edgar's striking is dependent on his quick takedown threat
Bendo has some of the best takedown defense in the division and is incredible in scrambles. And he definitely has the gas tank to go 5 rounds with Frankie. I don’t know that I’d favor him, but he’s a very live dog.

by Hardcharger on Feb 22, 2012 11:24 AM EST via mobile up reply actions
a very fair point
But Henderson is good at getting wins, and if he can get hold of Frankie he may very well be able to muscle him. I think Edgar deserves to be favored, but the line should be, and is, close.
I consider myself a softcore fan.
Henderson will stay standing only as long as he needs to until he can get hold of Edgar & impose his massive size/strength advantage. Once he takes Frankie down, it will be GNP time until he can latch on to that neck. Benson by RNC in Round 4.

I was gonna say
People expecting anything but a grappling war have not been paying attention to Hendersons UFC run.
Bocek outgrappled, Miller out grappled, Guida out grappled.
He’ll stand a little with Edgar but he’ll get him down. For some reason though I see Edgar getting clipped and/or caught in a Tine in the 4th as well.
Those are 3 fighters who emplyee grappling based games.
Frankie Edgar is not of the same ilk. Yes, he likes to hit a few takedowns, but he’s not a grinding wrestler. He prefers to use quick foot work and movement to strike his way to victory.

I keep going back to this thought
What does Ben Henderson do better than Gray Maynard?
Less power, worse boxing, worse takedowns, better GnP, better scrambling, better submissions.
How can a fighter who will have a very, very hard time getting the fight down capitalize on his strengths? How will he set up TD’s when he is constantly being jabbed in the face?

Every card you say you don’t see much worth betting on. Any experienced MMA bettor can find plenty of value in any UFC card. Don’t talk about gambling if you don’t know what you are saying.

“not much going on” “I don’t see much value” You use these phrases repeatedly.

I will give you one….If the favorite is between -225 and -350 and has won a majority of his fights by decision, take the over.

How are Edgar and Benod even? I have never seen that in a title fight before.

and what about the "Kid"?
He looked atrocious in his last fight. There is absolutely no reason he should be -400 against Lee.

Lee looked good in his last fight. Kid has looked terrible lately and has lost 4 out of last 5, with his only win coming against a tomato can. Here is some more advice. Don’t live in the past. Lee is not great but more than held his own against a legit UFC fighter in his last outing. Kid is a shell of his former self and doesn’t even belong in the UFC. He will most likely lose and then get cut. This line is an obviously wrong.

Lee kinda looked like complete balls in his last fight.

From what I remember he looked good on the feet in the first
And then just got controlled for the rest of the fight.

There’s a reply button there. Use it to respond, it streamlines the conversation.
Chris Cariaso isn’t a very good grappler. He mounted Lee FIVE TIMES in that fight. Kid is not who he used to be, but he has better standup and better takedown defense than Chris Cariaso. Darren U did turn Kid inside out, but Darren’s an awesome grappler. No excuses for Kid, he lost bad – but he was given this fight in Japan because it’s the best possible fight for him in the UFC. Oddsmakers know that.

Still have big money dropped on Shields.
I honestly have faith in him in that fight, I just don’t know why completely. I was going to throw some cash down on Rampage, given the “home field” advantage, but Baders wrestling makes me shaky about doing that. I could honestly see him decisioning ‘Page, he just looks too slow these days.
P.S. Don’t tell PB I said that. He’ll fade my ass.

Pretty much
I don’t see Bader hitting a knee tap anytime soon.

Go ahead and bet on Rampage, I don't think Bader's got much for him.

My playground pick, I'm picking Edgar for the sake of the prediction but hoping Henderson wins

Save a little bit for a tent just in case
Okami is taller and throws nice clean straight punches that could probably frustrate Tim from range. Boetsch matches up decently with Okami especially if he can get inside and use his power punches and judo throws. Okami by decision is the most likely result, but at those odds Boetsch is a sensible bet.
I consider myself a softcore fan.
