Liam Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 I had 50p or something in my bet365 account, so not exactly blowing big money on it. Though I agree, from what I've seen, the odds never really make it worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabriel Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 Smart picking goes to Kenny Florian based on the level of opponents he's faced, and the fact that he's arguably the next in line for BJ Penn at 155. My gut feeling though, is that Huerta wants this worse than anyone really figures, and he's going to come out all guns blazing looking to not only beat, but embarrass Kenflo, and put Dana White in a position where he either has to give in to Huerta's demands, or lose one of the hottest young stars in the business to Affliction, who WILL pay him what he wants.

Gene Kiniski Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 I have to say I think Herring has the edge in this fight. As much of a monster as Lesnar has potential to be you have to realize that Herring is...Herring. Heath is on the right track back to being the fighter he was during his Pride ways and has shown that lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IAceI Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 Well there's only one way to find out. And that's in a few hours when it all begins, and we can all see what happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazedfan Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 Lesnar getting subbed by Mir is kind of irrelevant though, considering Mir has the best jiu-jitsu in the heavyweight division aside from Big Nog. Herring has nowhere near the submission acumen that Frank Mir has. My main reason for picking Lesnar in this fight is Heath Herring's fight against Jake O'Brien. O'Brien took Herring down, and kept him there EASILY. Lesnar is a far more explosive, and powerful wrestler than O'Brien could ever even hope to be. I think Herring's one advantage would be if Lesnar for some reason chooses to stand and trade with him, which I can't imagine Lesnar would even really want to consider aside from maybe the first minute. As for Florian/Huerta, I think this is an easier fight than most people think. I think Florian handles Huerta pretty easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Evil Guy Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 I say Lesnar wins, I don't know why, but I really want him to win. I mean, the guy already fucked up Football. At least let him be half decent at this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxx Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 Yeah I'm taking Lesnar, Mir got very lucky grabbing the leg when he did, Lesnar was brutalizing him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocksta Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 What happened? Spoiler: Click here to viewI'm assuming you're talking about the Brock bout. He completely dominated. Cut Heath up with the first punch then just took him down all three rounds. Ground and pound. Just complete domination.

Oh yeah, Ellis, I completely agree. The mocking with seconds left was shitty on his part. Finish him then do that.

apsham Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 Ellis was being sarcastic. I don't see anything wrong with him doing that though, he clearly had a reason to.

naiwf Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 Tito's tactics generated bigger buyrates because a lot of people wanted to see him get his ass kicked. It's a smart business tactic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KCC Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 What a fun show. Probably the best MMA show I've seen all year. Every match I enjoyed and cared about, something rare for UFC these days. My predictions...eh. Could've been better.
