    Yeah, but them going after Justin.tv and Ustream like they are doing is a new development in how serious they actually are about it.

    I have tried watching UFC's on a stream and it is a nightmare. Better off paying for ESPN. But on the other hand Strikeforce is great to stream.

    Id tell you but Id be sued for telling company secrets. :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭unknown13


    Stann / Massenzio is the pick of the undercard fights. The main card could actually be very good because the matchups are very good and IMO at least 2 /4 main card fights are pick'ems.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭unknown13


    Weigh in results

    Jon Jones (206) vs. Vladimir Matyushenko (206)
    Yushin Okami (185) vs. Mark Munoz (185)
    Jake Ellenberger (170.5) vs. John Howard (170.5)
    Takanori Gomi (156) vs. Tyson Griffin (154)
    Paul Kelly (155) vs. Jacob Volkmann (156)
    * DaMarques Johnson (172.5) vs. Matt Riddle (171)
    James Irvin (205) vs. Igor Pokrajac (204.5)
    Brian Stann (186) vs. Mike Massenzio (184)
    Darren Elkins (154.5) vs. Charles Oliveira (154)
    Rob Kimmons (185) vs. Steve Steinbeiss (185)

    * Johnson was given additional time to cut weight but only got to 172. Riddle agreed to the catchweight fight and Johnson will forfeit 20% of his purse.

    Gomi actually looks massive compare to griffin :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,071 ✭✭✭✭callaway92


    Gomi actually looks massive compare to griffin :eek:

    Griffin could fight 145 lb, Gomi couldn't. what is the height difference?

    Griffin and Edgar are the only ones who could actually fight at 145. Edgar walks around at 158, he could cut to 145 easily but he doesn't want to.

    My picks would be the exact same as yours :D although I still think DaMarques could beat riddle

    Im all over the takanori gomi (9/4) and mark munoz (6/4) double

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,453 ✭✭✭evil_seed


    is this on ESPN? FRom what I can remember they didnt show the last UFC live on Versus. But I could be very wrong about that.

    Rob Kimmons wins by UD.

    43 points in the bag for me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭unknown13


    Oliveria wins by Armbar, very early in the first round


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 258 ✭✭Willie Stroker

    messing around on boards, getting play by play updates on the prelims and checking my fantasy predictions aswell. It sucks that Kevin Iole ain't at this event because the updates would be better.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭unknown13


    stann wins by sub in the third


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,660 ✭✭✭SDTimeout


    While i like Okami alot, i think munoz is a good bet tonight at 6/4.

    Trying to look for value in the jones market

    I personally think Munoz is going to give Okami a nasty beatdown. Munoz has better wrestling than Sonnen and Sonnen apparently beat Okami well. Munoz stops Okami by G'n'P in this fight.

    Just so i know for later, do we have to use spoiler tags even though the title clearly says spoilers inside ?.

    Also my skys canceled for the summer so a PM would be helpful before the event starts :)

    I have him winning in the first. Second round could happen but Matyushenko will be stopped.

    I thought of the prospect of it. Personally in terms of betting i just look for a good bit of value. I think anyone lumping on jones at 1/6 is laughable. I'd have Jones prices around 2/7 and that's being greedy at my part.

    Vlad is well capable. Thats why the 3 and 4/1 are tempting :D

    Have you watched a Fight Night or Versus show live? The ads have ads.
