General MMA Discussion & Future Lines - January, 2017

[Joseph Budden]

In other news, RDA is moving to WW

Pretty excited for potential fights there for him

 

[Sadistics]

Jacare vs Boetsch at 208. Seems obvious that Jacare wins it but I love betting Boetsch as an underdog and I expect him to be a pretty big one here. Of course if Jacare is priced reasonably I'll be hitting that.

I was expecting to get laughed at when I said this, but I will play Boetsch +250 or better

 

[2bet]

Boetsch will get finished, no doubt about that

Boetsch will get finished, no doubt about that

I think you'd be surprised.

Boetsch is a strong motherfucker in the clinch. If he defends takedowns it becomes a pickem on the feet.

I'd be absolutely shocked if Boetsch makes it into round 3, I do believe that Jacare will tool him. Hell, he even finished Mousasi.

Furthermore Jacare can take a punch, he is though to finish - and Tim "Fat" Boetsch will not outpoint him over 3 rounds - he won't make it to round 3.

I do give Boetsch less than a 5% chance to win this.

Jacare ITD ftw

You think Jacare should be at least -1900. Oky doky.

I would obviously not bet him at -1900 haha.
The Jacare ITD line will hopefully be +something, I'll hammer it then.

[piglord]

yeah if i get boetsch around +300 i will happily play him. boetsch is strong as fuck and if he can defend the takedown, he can definitely land one of his bombs.

 

[piglord]

Can't believe i'm going to this shit event. Can't believe my dad has to be one of these old guys who didn't wanna listen to my reasoning for waiting to purchase tix cause the prices will DEF be dropping closer to the show. Just smh all around

on the upside, you actually have a father you have some commonalities with. my "father" saw me watching a wmma fight and said he couldn't think of anything more disgusting.

 

[Rebel_LioN]

I'm going to be visiting Denver for shits & giggles.

Anyone from Denver, Colorado can recommend me points of interests??

I'll also be attending the Cerrone/Masvidal card on January 28th while I'm there! I'll be sure to leave the parking lot after the REAL main event is over so I prob won't catch the girl fight.

 

[piglord]

shogun versus villante for ufc brazil, interesting.

 

[mkess101]

Jacare goes from the guy everyone thinks deserves a title shot to...Tim Boetch? Talk about a letdown.

I do think Jacare probably dusts him. Much faster and has the luxury of taking all sorts of chances with his TD's because Boetch will want zero part of him on the mat, even if Jacare ends up on his back.

That said, if odds on Boetch KO are just insane I'll stab it. He has power and Jacare does get reckless with his striking.

I don't mind Overeem at 11.00.
Mousasi at 6.00 is also interesting.

 

[Sham5916910]

From memory leites didnt have an issue taking tim down.

Villante gasses bad and last time he fought in brazil nearly died after r1. Shogun just needs to survive r1.

 

[Slohog]

Rumble, Khabib, Rockhold, Holloway, Rivera, Mighty Mouse, Ngannou and Thompson looks half decent as far as value goes.

 

[Joseph Budden]

Def like Shogun over Villante, but that should surprise no one when I bet Safarov over him

 

[Joseph Budden]

Would bet Rumble and Gegard

 

[Ballsaque]

I think you'd be surprised.

Boetsch is a strong motherfucker in the clinch. If he defends takedowns it becomes a pickem on the feet.

What makes you think it will be a pickem on the feet? Boetch is powerful, but not a good striker at all. Jacare is better and has the athletisim to match.
