UFC 170: Rousey vs. McMann - Page 3

The attempt to fake hype this fight is just embarrassing

nothing is more embarrassing than rogan and dana trying so hard to sell cummins as a legit challenger vs cormier.

sara is sooo fuckin jacked..

Holy Holm is the only femal with better technical striking than Cyborg, but Cyborg would still wreck her shit with her roid rage and grappling.

Cyborg would smash Rousey and Holm has decent odds too, she is so fast and circles to her left even more activly than Machida and that its a strong counter to Rondas grappling game

agree with this. holly seems to have sketchy wrestling but shes actually really great at standing back up once she gets taken down.

Cyborg would crush through both since she has the punchin power and explosiveness of a 155lbs male ufc fighter
Cyborg also has good techical Jiu Jitsu and is just so freaking strong.
She lifted and slammed Tito Ortiz in training when he triangled her lol !!!

Rousey would be drawing dead vs Cyborg

don't think ROusey would be drawing dead
the line opened Rousey -200 before Cyborg went to Invicta

mcmann looks thick

yeah definitelly not drawing dead, I think Rondas odds should be at around +160

hmmm McDonald wins by 3 round decision +104?

Since UFC took away the KOTN and SOTN bonuses, 5dimes now offers "fastest fighter to win by KO" and "fastest person to win by submission" props, along with the original FOTN prop.

Whittaker didn't train Firas Zahabi (Tristar gym) at all this camp. This was one of the things people were worried about for this fight.

Firas Zahabi on MMA Junkie Radio

- Weight cutting is a science now
- Maia is Royce Gracie 5.0
- Rory likes to just fight, test himself, he's not emotional
- I brought in new coaches, Matt Miller a national free style wrestler, helped alot, keep Rory standing as long as possible
- And Travis Stevens 2 time Olympian Judo to mimic Maia takedowns
- I'm fine with Rory going to the ground as long as he's on top, ground and pound
- Rory has to read and react, the gameplan has to be flexible
- The Lawler loss was a good lesson to prepare for future fights
- I believe Rory will be champion and he'll look back at his experiences and see that's what made him
- We do big glove and little glove sparring, training with little gloves make such a difference for takedowns
- GSP went too far for too long, it weighed on him mentally, he had no time to enjoy life
- I'm very close with Wonderboy and his family, so I didn't train Whittaker, I stepped away, I don't want to get involved

Cyborg is planning on fighting at 135 and challenges Ronda.

I hope Dana doesnt protect his little queen for the ass kicking she would receive if she fights Cyborg.

I think Cyborg needs to make weight and beat someone good before she gets a title shot. While I agree that she deserves a fast track I'll be betting RR if they actually fight at 135 unless Cyborg looks great in the few fights before.

While shes miles ahead on the feet I don't think she has much for RR on the ground. Didn't see "get mounted" by Carano of all people? I think there's a hight probability of her getting thrown on her ass and armbarred like everyone else. Roided 145 Cyborg would probably be able to keep it on the feet, by skinny-ass-clean Cyborg at 135?

Final picks:

• Rousey > McMann (o1.5 at -150.)
• Cormier > Cummins (I think Cormier will win via head kick, but I put $2 on Cummins at +1050.)
• MacDonald > Maia (MacDonald via decision. I don't like the odds for this fight, so I added "fight goes the distance" to a parlay.)
• Pyle > Waldburger (Pyle's ML at -155.)
• Thompson > Whittaker (Thompson's ML at -115 and "Fight goes the distance" at -105.)
• Eye > Davis (Eye's ML at +150 and I added "Fight goes the distance" to a parlay. Eye's +3.5 handicap is -205, which I'm waiting to see if it gets better before the fight starts.)
• Assuncao > Munhoz (Assuncao via decision and I added "Fight goes the distance" to a parlay.)
• Gibson > Sterling (Gibson's ML at +200 and his handicap line at +105. I placed my bets before seeing Sterling fight, and it seems that everyone aside from me is on Sterling. Gibson has a college degree in teaching, and he was ready to accept a job position before getting the call from the UFC, so that's not good for my pick.)
• Sampo > Makovsky (Sampo's ML at +170 and his +3.5 handicap line at -165. This will be a close fight which Sampo needs to get to the ground.)
• Koch > Oliveira (My mind says Koch, but I don't think he'll dominate as easily as people are expecting. I have a small bet on Oliveira's +3.5 handicap at +240.)
• Cedeno > Chavez (Fight won't go 3 round distance -125.)

is there a skype group or any other type of group chat any of the LPrs get on to talk about the fights and bets while its goin?

Maia is +275 on 5dimes.

I was thinking about how Rory strikes. He pokes and pokes, whether it's with his jab or kick. He isn't a mass volume striker.

Maia's fights against Santiago and Story make the match up against Rory seem closer than the lines suggest.

Anyway, I have a bet on Maia's ML and decision prop. I was gonna originally play his +3.5 prop, but the line got worse earlier today.

I also have Munhoz +3.5 at -125.

I'm thinking about Munhoz at +3.5 as well. I have Asso in a lot of parlays and I know it's going to be close.

Fight Pass is on. Good Luck guys!!

Chavez vs. Cedeno is like watching amateur hour on one of the regional events like MFC/LFC/XFC.

Sampo is now +210... Interesting.
