UFC FN 52: Hunt vs. Nelson - Page 2

----------

Hunt looks the same as usual and he was able to get his words out just fine during the interview on stage. Mark Hunt is currently -110 on 5dimes, -115 on Bookmaker. I assume that line will get worse by the time I wake up.

Mark Hunt (264) vs. Roy Nelson (260)
Takanori Gomi (155) vs. Myles Jury (156)
Yoshihiro Akiyama (170) vs. Amir Sadollah (170)
Rin Nakai (135) vs. Miesha Tate (135)
Kiichi Kunimoto (171) vs. Richard Walsh (171)
Kyoji Horiguchi (125) vs. Jon Delos Reyes (125)
Alex Caceres (135) vs. Masanori Kanehara (135)
Katsunori Kikuno (146) vs. Sam Sicilia (145)
Hyun Gyu Lim (171) vs. Takenori Sato (169)
Kyung Ho Kang (136) vs. Michinori Tanaka (135)
Johnny Case (156) vs. Kazuki Tokudome (155)
Maximo Blanco (146) vs. Daniel Hooker (145)

There's no way Mark Hunt had just cut 18 pounds in a day. Didn't even click that source. I just watched the weigh-in and he looked amazing. Nelson looked way worse than recent fights. I call bullshit on that 284 thing, no way.

Edit: Double

To be clear, this UFC event starts tonight (Friday) at 9:30pm PST / 23:30 LP.net. The main card starts 3 hours later, which is early on Saturday morning.

I think I like Mark Hunt in this fight... although I'm sad that Vegas also likes Hunt too. Would think more people would bet Big Country in this one.

Lots of late money pouring in on Nelson. Hunt is down to -105

cant he just avoid the big cut and get a 25% payment fine?

Probably, but he already made the weight and seemed fine during weigh-ins.

There was news last night before the weigh-ins that the UFC said Hunt's weight was on schedule and he wouldn't miss weight. Sure enough, he was 1 pound under the limit at 264. With the 1 pound extra they give you for non-title fights, Hunt could've weighed in at 266 if he really needed to.

I'm not sure how much he usually cuts for his fights, but I do know that he has plenty of extra fat and water weight he builds up when he isn't fighting. Either way, I hope he uses his movement and fights smart in the 1st round, a loss to Nelson would end his chances at ever getting a title shot. If Hunt can manage to put 3 wins together in a row, he could possibly get a title shot due to Velasquez holding wins over everyone else in the division that matters, especially since he already fought JDS three times.

such a great time for card but i have to leave to university in few hours, sucks.

Great fight to start the night! Blanco vs. Hooker

early morning hangover and ufc, aint that something

Sick grappling fest in the Kang vs. Tanaka match.

That was the best grappling match I've seen in MMA for a long time! It literally could've went either way, so a split-decision wasn't a big surprise. However, I was a little surprised that Kang won the decision, since he was facing an undefeated Japanese fighter in Japan.

I guess its way more easy to cut when you are fat than when you are already lean

Opposite I think. I believe lean muscle carries more water than fat.
