A couple very tough guys on the undercard in Aldo and Maeda.

"the bunker"
i`ve had cerrone sitting on my pending wagers list since the buffalo was an endangered species....glad this card finally gets going...

btw..that yahya/maeda fight seems more like a main card-quality bout to me...

pretty tough match-up...

have faber as a parlay kicker...

lots of sonnen sentiment out there...and garcia/pulver should be a great fight....somehow i think pulver might just hit to hard and be a little to strong...

I am with you completely on two fights.

Garcia to beat Pulver
Cerrone to beat Blunt Razor.

They have been in my pending wagers for a long time and I keep adding to the Garcia wager every time it hits +170.

Good luck all.

"Blunt Razor" :mj07:

I agree, weepaul... The dull Razor couldnt have looked more FLAT in his last two fights. It's like he only performs well when he senses fear in his opponents.

Cerrone on the otherhand has extreme confidence right now, and has gone on record asking Razor to bring his A-game.. saying he doesnt want to fight the Razor Rob that fought K. Alexander and Jamie Varner..

Cerrone has a very aggressive style that McCullough doesnt like (see Varner fight). He's sure to come in with great conditioning and game plan since he's training w/ the Jackson camp. Also, he spars regularly with good friend Carlos Condit who is nearby at FIT NHB, so he's sure to be prepared when it comes to Thai boxing...

This fight in particular I feel extremely confident in... love the line. Just love it. :00hour

FABER will win easy. Never seen a fighter like him. If you have watched him he can strike from anywhere. One of the best I have ever seen.

Donald Cerrone at -140..... 4.2 Ginas :scared :scared :scared

This is a bit scary b/c Razor Rob has been dangerous in the past, but here lately he hasnt been himself... i hope nothing changes tomorrow night. Confident in Cerrone wherever the fight takes him knowing that he went 28-0 in kickboxing (some amateur, mostly pro) and has won all his MMA bouts via submission (9-0). Bring it, Razor.. bring it. :SIB

Chael Sonnen at +155..... 1.5 Ginas

Chael has always been vulnerable to subs, but with all the whining he did after the last stoppage, he has something to prove.. He has been working alot on passing guard.... I think he wins by TKO.

:director: GL everybody. -10.46 Ginas since 6/21/08

Future fight- unrelated.

Frank Mir +300? Isn't he capable of submitting almost anyone? I'm MMA clueless. Thanks

The Sonnen-Fihlo fight worries me now

I'm staying away from it

I'm bandwagoning you guys on Cerrone LARGE

also on Faber and Garcia the doggy

and one parlay

Faber
Cerrone
Garcia

I'll be a happy camper tonight if all 3 hit !

My guess is Cerrone and Faber win

Garcia I'm less sure on (taking the odds)

on the WEC website it says Cerrone may not be broadcast?

maybe now that Sonnen-Filho is a 3 rounder it makes more room on the broadcast?

good luck guys

I actually feel more confident in Sonnen knowing the fight is now only 3 rounds (if u didnt know, this is a non-title fight now that Filho missed weight). I think Sonnen's chances of being submitted are much less in a 3-rounder.

Just my two cents. Good luck. :00hour

I may drop a small play on Garcia if the odds continue to get better (will probably pass). I've got the feeling Pulver has some tricks up his sleeve after changing camps this time around which worries me....really looking forward to this matchup.

Still like the fat guy, even overweight. Faber is dominate, and will once again show why he's an elite fighter. I've always like Garcia, ever since that fight with Huerta. This fight should be pretty damn good. Then like Schoenauer and his experience.

he's looked (he's frayed around the edges from many headshots, so he is deteriorating) the same to me. aside from a headkick from heath, he beat him without much difficulty.

and having a come from behind win against sylvia after getting beaten up wasn't inconsistent with several of his pride fights, for example, vs. sapp and vs. mirko. he even struggled early against yokoi and he was dreadful in pride.

and his weight and body composition looks the same.

maeda -105
garcia +179

we talkin` about the same guy?...paulo filho?...he fought sylvia,mirko and herring?....

wait a minute...you`re talking about nogueira....o.k.....lol

when i was mentioning body composition,i was talking about filho...

i`m on nogueira vs mir....i do think he`s "frayed" a bit also...but i think he`s got enough to handle mir...i

i like maeda,too...they must have just put the line up....

20081017103426_paulofilho.JPG


granted he has on a shirt,but,this filho looks strong and cut...the filho on the weigh in video looks soft and puffy...

the old pride filho toys with sonnen,imo...this filho,i`m not so sure...

maybe my eyes aren`t what they used to be..
