My UFC 165 Bets - Post Yours (Part III)

yeah being a heavy hitting fighter he will obviously suffer the same fate with fighters with power; cardio disadvantage.

But c`mon this is his biggest fight ever he will be in his best shape ever. I have noticed a steady positive progression to Wineland since WEC days.

He stuck to a smart gameplan for Pickett (which I had money on) what makes you think he cant do the same here?

People dont know but he also has some wrestling background thats why hes hard to take down like in the Faber and JB fights.
 
My Bellator bets (I originally had 2 bets, but then I felt like gambling today):

Ben Saunders/Douglas Lima Under 1
 
that dude looked really good....no clue who he is though lol

Loads of heavy hitters have good cardio brah. Skillwise Wineland has improved but not drastically. Barao is one of the most complete fighters in the UFC. Look at the fight vs Pickett again, he faded after the midway point and let Pickett back into the fight after completely dominating him early. He only defeated Pickett by split decision because of that. Similar story in the JB and Faber fights, he had good TDD for 2 rounds til he faded in the third and started finding himself on his ass. All in all Wineland is very similar to Michael McDonald who Barao defeated last time around but Eddie's worse in pretty much all areas.
 
Mighty Mo stuffing td's and back to back knees to the groin...this fight is awesome.
 
Charles isn't getting these td's early. And I don't think the shots are poor, Mo has just been strong and quick to identify.
 
little known fact: jason herzog is a top 3 ref...wish he got more ufc assignments

My mental notes of the Weigh ins:

Jones vs. Gustafsson: Whoa Gus looks better than ever! JBJ a freak of nature.
Barao vs. Wineland : EW so big @ '35 & Barao looks great
Mitrione vs. Schaub: MH looks to be in fantastiic condiion / BS a bit soft? Normal?
Carmont vs. Philippou: Carmont a specimen // CP very good shape
Healy vs. Nurmagomedov // Khabib needs towel, makes weight easily) Pat HUGE @ 55 Shredded
Jury vs. Ricci // MJ impressive / Ricci a bit drawn out but to be expected.
Menjivar vs. Reis // WR shredded /Ivan comes in heavy (1 lb)
Chris Clements vs. Stephen Thompson WB solid/ CC looks quite smaller than WB
Gagnon vs. Kimura: Both equally nimpressive ut appear bfit.
Forte vs. Makdessi both solid. Makdessi looks like a LW cros eyed
Michel Prazeres vs. Jesse Ronson (Tractor soooo muc h beter @ '55. Looks strong.
Caceres vs. Delorme: BLR so lean. Looks fragile. RD a big '35er & much thicker than BLR.
Guelmino vs. Omielanczuk: DO in better condition than past fights/ Nandor fi as well.

Yes let's all shorten Brendan Schaub's name to "BS" from now on, never has a fighter had a more fitting nickname :D

If Wineland was to win how do you see him winning?

That's the opposite of a fact, rather an opinion, but one I agree with. I think he and referee Keith Peterson aren't used by UFC because of their size. Although, ironically, Herzog is working a HW fight here, and he did Schaub-Johnson as well.
 
Can you watch the whole card on this stream? Cuz my service provider airs the fights 3 hr delay. So rather just watch whole card thru computer earlier?
 
Mo is looking surprisingly good for a geriatric
 
Wow, I think Charles would get the win if he got Mo down 1-2 times. But he hasn't been successful on one td. Not particularly bad td attempts or anything, Mo's tdd has just been stout. I don't really know what Charles should do differently other than show more urgency to get his back off the cage.
