I was sleeping on Holly, but after the weigh in I think she has the mental advantage and might just shock the world.

Valerie Letourneau can't be slept on either. A good striker who beat a boxing world champion in the stand up and has a significant size advantage over the current champ.

Ronda or Joanna, I have a feeling that one of these dominant champs is going to get dethroned tonight. Book it.
 
stop trying to sell us wolftickets fella...
 
Valerie is going to be effected by that weight cut. She looked absolutely terrible last night, I dont think shes going to recover.

And Holly is way too one dimensional. mental advantage is decidedly overrated. Its not like they are going to go to the ground and Ronda is going to start sobbing uncontrollably.
 
If anything, Valerie has the makings of an underdog upset, not Holm.

While I agree that both incumbent champs should be clear favorites, I don't think Holm shown anything in her skillset that's capable of stopping Ronda's bullrush to TD armbar finish. On the other side of the co-main though, you have a champ with only one defense, who is used to being the larger girl on fight night (having fought at 125 and some of her challengers coming up from 105). Valerie isn't he best fighter, but she's obviously turned a corner with her drop down from BW to SW and training for the first time at a real camp like ATT. While I don't think it's enough to beat JoJed, it's more promising than Holm's chances appear to be.
 
There is only one time I can think of when a fight was ever won at the weigh-in.

That was when Kongo turned his back on Frank Mir, to show disrespect.

Odds have Val as a bigger underdog than Hold, but Val is definitely more likely to pull an "upset" on the ridiculously overhyped JoeJed.
 
I want to see someone dethrone Ronda, but it won't happen tonight as much as I want it to.
 
I see double upset. Might or might not happen.
 
Post betting slip

Got more important things to do with my money than to bet on a corrupt sport.

Not too mention that the odds always suck, and the risks most often outweigh the rewards.
 
Excellent prediction skills, kudos to you!!
 
1 out of 2 aint bad. Aint too good, either.

Lucky kick and lucky guess.
