First thoughts:

• Henderson vs. Khabilov (I know everything about Henderson but, I don't know anything about Khabilov despite having seen all 3 of his UFC fights. My memory goes to shit when it comes to these Russian fighters. People say +200 for Khabilov is great, considering Henderson is always in close fights.)
• Pearson > Sanchez (Diego is the hometown favorite in this fight, and the altitude is high in Albuquerque. Skill wise, I favor Pearson. Aside from the complete robbery in Japan against Gomi, Diego hasn't won a fight in over 3 years.)
• Dodson > Moraga
• RDA > High
• Hallman > Edwards (I think Hallman will grind it out, maybe pressuring against the fence. Yves doesn't impress me anymore.)
• Perez > Caraway (Hard fight to pick. Perez is the hometown favorite even though he's from Mexico. He also has the cardio advantage and trains at high altitude every day. Caraway can easily snatch up a submission, but his striking sucks though.)
• Pettis > Meza (I wouldn't be surprised if Meza won via pressure, or if Meza slipped up and got finished. I think either Meza by decision or Pettis ITD.)
• Voelker > Benoist (I never bet against Voelker, even though he's lost all of his UFC fights.)
• Jorgensen vs. Martinez (Jorgensen is beyond washed up but, I don't know anything about Martinez.)
• Tuck > Lindsey
• Cummins > Narvaez

$537.50 on Henderson at -215
$662.50 on Dos Anjos at -265

Nothing too complicated I think both guys are really good and hard to upset and felt that the lines were off when they came out.

Cummings is -380 I would consider betting him as well once the line comes out elsewhere. In the minute he was still standing I was extremely impressed with him against Cormier.

Would be good for the division if Khabilov wins, since if Henderson does he ll request another title fight and honestly who would want to see that once more...

Also fuck Jon Jones - he refuses to fight Gustafson again, he supposedly wants to fight Cormier.

Also this card is so much better than last weekends German and Brazil cards. For a UFN I actually like this one a lot.

If Benson won this weekend and then asked for a title fight, he knows he wouldn't get one until sometime in 2015. Pettis is coaching against Gilbert on the next season of TUF, and that won't start for awhile since the UFC is already in the middle of a season of TUF with Penn and Edgar. Pettis won't fight Gilbert until the end of this year.

Also, Benson might get the Jon Fitch treatment since he already loss 2 times to Pettis, and everybody knows it since the Showtime Kick off the cage was what they used to hype their 2nd fight. It didn't help Benson's case that he received his black belt in BJJ a month or so before their second fight, and easily got submitted in the first round against a purple belt who's known mainly as a flashy striker.

Good to see a good card after those shitty cards from last weekend. This seems a good card to bet on.

Just added another bet this one on Cummins $787.50 at -315. Going to be an exciting card for betting~

No way I'd pay -300 or worse for Cummins. I'd rather take his ITD line, whatever it is. I don't think this will go 3 full rounds.

Anyone like Diego at +160? And did anyone happen to catch this gem:

"I was like, ‘I'm so ready, I can have whatever I want.' And I ate a super raw steak and I had a beef tartare with a quail egg as my appetizer. You know the age-old thing? The age-old boxers, like, if you eat blood, it's going to make you an animal? That was my mindset, as stupid as it is. I look back and I'm like... man, you're an idiot sometimes."

His reason for his shitty performance in his last fight in which I actually had a small bet against him on Myles Jury. I'd chalk it up to crying with some crazy fabricated excuse if it were anyone but Diego. But since it's him, I kind of believe him. After laughing for a couple seconds.

Obviously not the best reason to bet on someone, esp since he's looked like crap without being incredibly stupid on fight week. 2nd reason being that he might be in the minority of fighters that fights better off emotion and this is his 'homecoming' fight. 3rd being that I think Ross Pearson just kinda sucks. He looked really slow in the couple minutes I saw him fighting Guillard...then you look up and down his match history and his best win is like...George Sotoropolis?

If I were gonna bet Diego/Ross, I'd bet o2.5 or goes to Decision. Ross has better striking imo, but Diego has better wrestling and BJJ. Ross won't knock Diego out, and Diego hasn't finished a fight in years and doesn't have a ton of power.

Both Gilbert and Myles laid the blueprint on how to beat Diego, which is the same way you beat Nate Diaz; stick and move at angles and don't get caught up in the moments when Diego/Nate talk shit to get their opponents to stand and trade. Gilbert got dropped for standing and trading, while Myles made Diego look like shit by striking from the outside and constantly moving.

Aside from the robbery against Gomi in Japan, Diego hasn't won a fight in over 3 years.

This should go the distance.

I don't think Gilbert and Myles laid the blueprint at all. It was already there before.

The 'Diego hasn't won a fight in over 3 years'....you're putting way too much stock into that also. If any stock should be put into that at all.

Since 2011:

Diego's opponents: Kampmann, Ellenberger, Gomi, Melendez, Jury
Pearson's opponents: Barboza, Assuncao, Swanson, Sotoropolis, Ryan Couture, Guillard

Diego's opponents: elite, borderline elite or in the case of Gomi...once was. Even still, Gomi would be on a 4 fight win streak w/o that robbery. And Diego took a round from each of them besides Jury.

Pearson's opponents: Two guys who were released right after their losses to Pearson (not the greatest sign you've just faced the best)...one who was only ever there because of his last name. A 145 lb'er who ktfo'd Pearson in the 2nd round (Swanson). And a guy who is actually 2-5-1 in his last 8 fights who made Pearson look like a slow mummy in the two minutes they fought (Guillard).

Not to say you can predict fights by looking at past match history...at all...but saying Diego hasn't really won a fight in x years isn't really a valid point when every opponent he's faced during that time is > anyone Pearson has ever faced. Maybe if Diego's schedule wasn't so tough because of his popularity. Or maybe if you were talking about some prodigy breaking onto the scene or something. Pearson is not that.

I feel like there's not a lot to exploit (lines wise) on this card, at least on who's gonna win. I don't fux with props much, even though I'm sure theyre profitable, I just find it fun to bet on someone and root for them.
