Crazy as in it should be wider?Holy cow. The line on Lupita Godinez seems crazy to me. I've seen her fight in LFA and I think she is one of the better WMMA prospects out there. She has solid boxing, is very physical and powerful for a wmma fighter and has a good wrestling base as well.
Her fight against Demopolous is a must see btw.

You think he wins this 75-80% of the time?-244 seems like a great price for Whittaker
YesYou think he wins this 75-80% of the time?
i dont really see why Jeremy Stephens is favored over Klose. I think people are forgetting he is moving up a weight class.
Espino > Romonov
I think Juan is much better bjj imo. Both guys have credentials in wrestling but Espino has competed in bjj tournaments for years and won several gold medals.I disagree, have Romonov for 2 units
Have Meerchart too, strange that he's a dog.
here Romanov struggling with a 205lb
i never said he was losing, or it was close, but he kept getting blasted in the face on multiple occasions and letting a lighter opponent pop back up, his top control is not near the level of Juan who i've very rarely seen opponents pop back up when he gets them down.I wouldn't call that struggling, those where propably three 10-8s before the finish.
I hope you stick around.Drakkar isn't a particularly big LW. 5'9 70in reach, same as Jeremy. Drakkar's boxing defence isn't anything to right home about, he backs up in straight lines and he keeps his hands low when exchanging in the pocket. He brawled with Dariush and got chinned. You can't brawl with Jeremy Stephens like that. The fight is also taking place in the small cage, this favours the brawler.
Drakkar also heavy on the lead leg, he likes to be the one walking forward in his fights, and he certainly won't be able to walk forward against Jeremy unless he wants his chin checked. He just has these moments in pretty much all his fights where he starts brawling like a retard. That's exactly the fight Stephens wants. And he does this all while he has a full gas tank. In round 3 he's gonna be sucking wind and his defence will be even worse. He was thoroughly gassed in round 3 against Giagos.
On top of that Drakkar gets taken down in like every fight he's in. Jeremy can get a TD if the opportunity presents himself. I guess I really don't rate Drakkar that highly.
Stephens has like 4 losses in a row but if you look at them closely it's not that bad of a losing streak. He had a competitive first round with Kattar, which he won. Kattar has an awesome jab, something that Drakkar does not, so Kattar was able to adjust in round 2 and keep Jeremy at range. He lost to Yair 2-1, showed us that he is able to grind if it's necessary. He lost to Zabit which is not really relevant to this match up with Drakkar. And he lost to Jose Aldo, again, it's Aldo, much higher level striker than Klose.
I got Stephens at 1.80. The current price is a little too high imo.

When Juan takes guys down he puts the sub on them quickly, Romanov took almost two complete rounds to tap out Roque Martinez who has terrible ground game. Juan would have gotten Martinez out of there faster.
Juan Francisco Espino - Wikipedia, la enciclopedia libre
he's also looking to come in better shape. Romanov is in the same shape as his last fight.
'In mixed martial arts, Juan Espino holds a 17-0 record in the amateur category, having been proclaimed Champion of Spain, organized by FILA,in Gijón,20European champion row in Hungary and world champion row in Canada. All these results were achieved in 2013. He also won the Spanish championship in 2014'
this means he has close to 28 fights in mma, making him the far more experience mma fighter, for underdog odds he is the value bet.
Striking wise i also give the edge to Espino he has a good overhand .
compare both guys striking and tell me who is better.
here Romanov struggling with a 205lb
This to me is a no brainer. Im going to get him early before this fight becomes even odds by saturday.
As for Meerchart too many losses on his record. he can possibly guilotine Fabinski, but i dont see much of an edge other than exp and submissions, fabinski has a wrestling advantage and both even on the feet. not touching either one.
