    Yea, in fairness, it was just something to make the prelims a bit more interesting. 0/2 now :o

    Let's hope it turns around for the real money fights.

    So how's everybody parting with their money on this one??!

    I did this accumulator to make it interesting. The main one I'd be worried about is the Junior Assuncao bet. But I just don't like Ross Pearson so I couldn't bring myself to bet on him! :D
    Not the best way to gamble I know but sure it's just a bit of fun.

    Lads, if you're looking for value then Paddy Power are giving 8/1 on Brock via submission!

    That's shocking! I've stuck €20 on.

    My main bet is €25 to return €98.01 on a double of Brock via TKO & Cerrone to win.

    I'll stick a proper accumulator on when I get the chance.

    I've got cerrone to win on points at 2/1 and a small double on Fitch and Matyushenko.
    Fitch a cert in my opinion and while I'm not overly confident on Maty at 11/4 he is a bit overpriced I think.

    Also did Lesnar at 13/10

    I've put a small amount on Cerrone by ko and Lesnar by ko. it's something in the range of 20/1 but they both have the ability to stop their opponents.

    I also put an accumulator on Pham, Fitch, mathushenko, Cerrone and Lesnar.

    cerrone on points also looks big to me at 2s (lads only 6/4)
    i think he'll be too good for diaz but when's the last time
    anybody finished one of the diaz brothers?
    also have singles on brock and anthony njokuani at 6/5+5/4

    Lads, I'm all over Jimy Hettes on this card, everyone seems to be going for Nam Pham but look at his recent record, he doesn't do a whole lot of winning and the people he does beat aren't high level competition. How can this guy be a 4/9 favourite?

    namphan.jpg

    Who has he beaten thats any good? Classic case of the guy with the "name" being made a big favourite. Jimy Hettes in a relative unknown and this is only his second fight in the UFC but I think he's way underrated. He looked awesome in his UFC debut (against Bruce Leroy! I know!!) but he looked like a guy that could handle a lot better opposition in the future. He's 9-0 with 9 submissions. I know Phan is a BJJ black belt and is probably unlikely to get subbed but Hettes is 4/1 to win by decision. He has awesome Judo (Known as "Judo Jim" at Greg Jacksons) and will take Phan down, hunt for submissions but Phan will defend. Top position for 3 rounds will earn Hettes the decision. At 4/1 (or 8/5 to win outright) thats major value in my book.

    Overeem-Diaz-Dong Yung Kim-Njoukuani-Volkmann.
    2 euro gives 37. That's my money back if it works.

    Other one is by method of victory.
    Overeem by KO-Diaz by Sub-Kim by Decision and Jim Hettes by Sub.

    forgot about hettes till now and i had him backed to sub leroy
    he's 5/1 to sub nam phan which surely must be worth a few euro

    I have Phan in my accum but I just stuck a fiver on Hettes by sub. 5/1 is too good to pass up.

    Yeah I've taken the 5/1 on hettes by submission as well, i'd definitely recommend taking the 4/1 on a Hettes decision as well as Nam Phan has never been subbed so Id say his defence will be solid.

    Phan is being priced on his recent form where he's even been impressive in his losses and the odds-makers naievity.

    This is one of those times where the value is definitely there.

    Like Lesnar at 8/1 to sub Overeem. If they fought 9 times, the fight will end up on the ground 7-8 times and will finish in a sub more than 1 of these times IMO. I mean, he's won twice by sub as it is in his 7 MMA fights and it's not as if he doesn't know what a guillotine is.

    I also lumped money on Lesnar at 8/1.

    That bet up top, €1 returning €19,800......... is that right? That's mental!
