General MMA Discussion & Future Lines - January, 2017

[Shoulder]

Unibet has Tito Ortiz (2,20) vs Chael Sonnen (1.62). Gotta be some value on Sonnen right? Even if he is old and havnt fought in a while, he is still fighting Tito? What is Tito going to do, go in and L&P him for three rounds?

Chael off sauce completely different. I like tito at dog odds

 

[Joseph Budden]

I think Tito probably has the better stand up, albeit will be sloppy either way if it stays there. But I love Tito as a dog. Hard to see Chael take him down and hug him for 3 rounds after a lengthy layoff

 

[piglord]

is chael going to be off the sauce though? if bobby lashley can pass a drug test i'm sure chael can too.

 

[Cptn1NSAN0]

Very curious to see where the lines end up for Masvidal/Cowboy, Assuncao/Sterling, Glover/Cannonier and Santos/Marshman. Some good leans for me

[Buddy Brown]

Ducking Yoel smh.

 

[timmyclax22]

Is this serious? Wasn't aware that they didn't like each other.

 

[Sham5916910]

Both fox analysts prob a set up.

Looks light hearted to me

 

[piglord]

that's crazy woodley walks around heavier than bisping. they should fight at 185.

as a comparison, robert whittaker claims to walk around at 216 which doesn't seem believable whatsoever, but bisping looks legit 199 pounds.

 

[Sham5916910]

I bumped into bisping at cage rageyrs ago think he was lhw then. He is not a big man at all.

 

[LEMONZEST]

Yeah its funny all these guys we think are amazeballs are small in real life. A 135 lb dude is flipping small.

 

[Cptn1NSAN0]

No way the UFC uses up two healthy champs for a non title fight, simply no way. Makes no sense from a business standpoint

And some are just huge. I'm a pretty big guy. 6'2" and 210. Played college football around 225. A few years ago I met Forrest Griffin in Vegas. Can't believe he cut to 205. Guy was a monster.

135lb guys are tiny lol. John Lineker is shorter than my 8 year old nephew.

I miss going to UK events. I'm going to go to UFC London in March for sure even if I have to go on my own. Just hope it's not a completely horrible card.

 

[mkess101]

Okay...Tito/Sonnen o2.5 at -190.

Aside from maybe either guy catching a guillotine, how does this one not go to the cards? Does anyone else think this price is cheap? I see this going the distance probably 70% of the time at a minimum.

I like Tito at +125 or +130 better. Chael hasn't fought in a long time and Tito is bigger. He might hit a rusty Chael hard enough to get a stoppage or catch a sub and even if he wins a decision you're at + money.

This is Tito's retirement fight.

This event is in Inglewood, CA, which is a 40-45 minute drive from Tito's hometown of Huntington Beach, CA.
