UFC 144: Edgar vs. Henderson - Page 4

boom 1-0. very satisfying because I watched a little tape on tamura and thought "he is going to beat a bum like zhang". if i were a serious bettor i would probably try to watch 2-3 recent fights of every guy on every card. its amazing how much the lines reflect how well known a guy is and how easy it is to see who will win when you just watch a few fights from them


my picks:
tamura +213
mizugaki -191
fukuda -273
vaughn lee +273
mitsuoka +191
pettis -222
hioki -149
shields -269
okami -294
kongo -274
rampage -217
edgar -120

Henderson > Edgar (Henderson will either smother Edgar to win via UD or win by sub in later rounds, or Edgar will be too fast and get a UD in later rounds. I think Henderson is prepared for "Speedy Gonzalez".)
Rampage > Bader (Always bet on black.)
Kongo > Hunt (I'm worried that Hunt might land one of his wild haymakers that could connect and finish Kongo. If Kongo plays it smart with fighting from a distance and picking up and scooping Hunt to the ground when he tries to get inside, he can win like that. I don't think we'll see a Kongo vs. Barry style match.)
Shields > Akiyama (Shields chin has been tested, but Akiyama isn't UFC material, and he's been fed to the wolves in his last 3 UFC fights.)
Boetsch > Okami (Boetsch is probably the underdog in this fight on paper, but since he moved down to 185 he's shown to have superior strength over his opponents, and he can take punishment to the head.)
Palaszewski > Hioki (If Bart connects with a jab, it's over. Hioki was hyped up in his first UFC fight like all other Japanese fighters, but his fight was the most disgusting display I saw last year from a hyped fighter.)
Pettis > Lauzon (Pettis is better than Lauzon in every area, some might say Lauzon has the BJJ advantage, but Pettis is good with BJJ as well. If Lauzon cant finish Pettis within 2 minutes, it's over.)
Gomi > Mitsuoka
Yamamoto > Lee (Last chance for Yamamoto, I think he'll be hungry and powered up by his local fans, at least I hope.)
Fukuda > Cantwell (Cantwell is on a 4 loss streak in the UFC, I dunno why he's being kept around.)
Mizugaki > Cariaso
Tiequan > Tamura

Mizugaki
pettis
hioki
shields
okami
kongo
rampage
edgar

All pretty obvious picks. Don't know any of the other Jacan fighters so not picking.

rofl... The Mizugaki/Cariaso fight wasn't epic, but Mizugaki easily humped his way into a decision win, I don't see how he lost that.

wtf these cards got switched or what ? ive never seen anyone lose when they lay on top for 3 rounds

faggot sport lol

Fukuda vs. Cantewell was nice until Cantwell gassed out.

Steve Cantwell is now on a 5 loss streak inside the UFC, I wonder if the UFC will keep him around for another...

Didn't see that one coming... Kid Yamamoto losing by submission.

did gomi faceplant there ?

Gomi was hurt in the last minute of round 1, Mitsuoka saw this and swarmed him, getting his back. Gomi was trying to recover when Mitsuoka got his back, lucky the round was almost over when that happened.

Gomi's corner told him Mitsuoka looked tired at the end of round 1, and Gomi came out hard and fast in round 2, Mitsuoka turned into a punching bag. gg

So glad Gomi won that fight.

<3 GOMIIIIIIIIII FIREBALL KID 4 LYFEEEE
