Christophe Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Just booked up for Vegas for the July 6 show. Thought the card was going to be stacked... but I'm wrong. Damn good card to me. 8/10 of those fights look excellent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshmallo Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 162 looks good to me, you've got Anderson in the main event and three top notch FW fights, every one of which should be really good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Not to mention Tim Kennedy vs. Roger Gracie which, while it may well be not very good, will probably be cool to see a Gracie. As said though, the featherweight fights look incredible. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshmallo Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I've avoided betting on Bendo and instead have just put singles on Larkin and Brown pulling off upsets. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 While I lean towards Mein in that fight, I think it's pretty two sided stuff. I'm not completely convinced by Mein, and Brown isn't all that bad a fighter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not completely convinced by Mein, and Brown isn't all that bad a fighter. That's my thinking too, Mein is pretty unproven and Brown is a sizeable step up from Dan Miller, especially on short(ish) notice. I've put 3/1 up on Betfair which should hopefully get matched. I think Larkin will outwrestle Carmont, Tom Lawlor did it and beat Carmont IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshmallo Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Henderson looked like he had a bad cut, looked terrible at the weigh ins. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuggie_Murray7 Posted April 20, 2013 Author Share Posted April 20, 2013 Henderson looked like he had a bad cut, looked terrible at the weigh ins. I always think that about him every time he fights. I think he likes to leave it as late as possible and doesn't take it seriously until the last few days. Don't forget Melendez is the naturally smaller man as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Don't think Bendo looked unlike his usual self tbh, did you back him? Maybe just getting the betting jitters! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His cut was the worst of his career. He was all over the water bottle like he had been stranded in the Vegas desert for a month. I was picking him the weigh ins, not so sure now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobbieD Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 (edited) Damn good card to me. 8/10 of those fights look excellent. Meant to be a supershow though. I went last year when they announced Silva vs. Sonnen, Cruz vs. Faber, Bisping vs. Stann and Ortiz vs. Griffin all booked (granted, injuries ruined that but that was the announced fights).

I was picking him the weigh ins, not so sure now. Henderson regularly struggles to make weight, he looked like he'd had a hell of a time pre-Diaz. And strolled it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the Independence Day weekend is traditionally a 'supershow' i dunno maybe something gives given they will have the 20th anniversary show this year too which i imagine they will stack. I'm more than happy with that card though, some of those prelims belong on PPV. Wouldn't complain to be going along to that.

Christophe Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Good start to the night with two good fb prelims. Powerful flying knee from Yoel Romero finishes Clifford Starks. And a stunning one punch knockout from Anthony Njokuani on Roger Bowling. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Another finish! Scored a lot of these from here in as decisions on my predictor so don't expect it to carry on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Means 1st rnd, Masvidal 2nd rnd here for me. Here comes the decider.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 i'm going to go 29-28 Masvidal. Probably be a split here though. Masvidal had much of the 2nd and 3rd on top but Means offence from his back was good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 All three score likewise, 29-28 masvidal unanimous 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 (edited) Great showing for Benavidez, some nice headkicks there. Uyenoyama had no answer to anything Benavidez threw at him there, well out of his depth. Edited April 20, 2013 by Christophe 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
