Just thinking, how does CM Punk win this? On the ground Gall has a clear advantage, on the feet probably too. The only way I see Punk winning is grinding out a decision. +750 for a Punk decision isn't a bad price for that IMO.

Eye, Tavares, CB, Rivera dec +4400. Yes please! Putting 0.25 unit on that. Can definitely see that happening.

I think gall dec +1000 holds so much more value, if this somehow goes the distance I cant understand why punk should be favoured, I know he was tossing askren around and dominating pettis in sparring but still

I ended up putting half a unit on Punk by R1 Ko. It's not the most likely outcome or anything but I've been thinking about the what's going through Galls head right now. Not only is everybody expecting him to win, but they expect him to win in a really convincing way early in the fight. Who's gonna give a fuck about the guy who couldn't finish Cm Punk? So he just might come in too aggresive and/or cocky and end up taking that one faithful fist of doom to the dome. Or this is all wishful thinking on my part since that Bisping upset was a thing of beauty lol...

Taking Gall sub rd.1 at 2.15 for half a unit on Bet365. Not having anything else to do with this fight, due to all the question marks etc., which have obviously already been covered extensively ITT.
Can't help but root for Punk though, obviously he doesn't belong at this level but he seems like a good dude from what i've seen of him.

Gall could be nervous, so he could come in too aggressive, so he could get ko'd by a 0-0 guy with zero striking background, it could very well happen in the first round. The Bisping/Rockhold fight clearly created a butterfly ripple in time/space continuum that has made dogs bark harder than usual and we should include that fact if we want to cap fights accurately.

Yeah. 2016 has been pretty crazy. Fun times for MMA fans.
Gall-CM is still one of those matchups where you just dont have the tools to place a bet. I read a lot of people speculating here but to be honest not a single person of all us knows what the hell is going to happen.
This reminds me Ronda/Holm. Holly grappling skills and overall TDD were pretty unknown and Ronda striking footage was very limited. I just said fuck it and went small with the +1000 dog. Honestly I thought that Ronda was going to get a early TD and armbar but could not be sure.
Punk-Gall it is a clear dog or pass for me. Specially when the underdog pays well.
On paper it looks like a mismatch but CM Punk is a grown ass and smart man who surely made the best of these 2 years of training while Gall is just a really talented kid.

First of all, isn't it childish to say "I'm not responding to you guys, I'm just gonna post this"? That's the type of shit that pisses me off, don't condescend me like a child or a troll. If you have a problem, don't be a bitch about it and call me
Out and than say "I'm not responding". I just lost a lot of respect for you.
Second, what is this notion I don't respect people's opinions? I have plenty of Productive conversations. People like mkess provide great insight and debate, sorry if I'm not always diplomatic with guys who say dumb shit. Whatever, if that's how y'all feel than I'm out. Peace

Did I see a reference to Crazy Horse?? That's enough of a reason for me to post my all time favorite MMA GIF.

That might be it. Maybe Punk has some secretly good single leg takedown and since he might be 20 pounds heavier on fight night, they figured they would match him up with a guy who has super weak takedown d? And then Punk trained 18 months of conservative, stalling top game?
Still trying to make sense of this one....
or live betting lentz if mcbride wins the first round

Nothing screams "don't bet on me" like walking out for your weigh ins and being accompanied by Mr. Tarverdyan.

8 minutes left to weigh in and no Overeem yet.
Edit.
2 minutes left and still no Overeem. Helwani just spoke to OAC and they said if he doesn't make the time limit IT'S NOT a forfeit but could result in a fine, unlike Nevada where he would forfeit.
Edit.
And they confirmed he will be fined a whopping $500 for being late. Alistair weighs in without taking off shirt and looking annoyed. Hmm.
