UFC 68...

Post by sportsbettingman » Sat Mar 03, 2007 1:07 pm

It's a bit overkill how they are having a UFC like every other week it seems, but let's party tonight and see if I can help pay for the 50 bucks it costs for high def fist fighting!



At +180...Randy Couture looks worth a few coins. (He should match up well and smother. Or get knocked out...but I'll take my chances he came out of retirement for the matchup...not the money.



Crap odds...but Babalu (Renato Sobral) looks like easy money if you have the stones to risk a bit.



And the last fight I'm playing is Matt "Mark" Hammil "The Hammer"...I like to call him the deaf Luke Skywalker. He's a wrestling beast who looks to win with poor odds.



Like any fight...I could lose all three...but that's where my money is tonight.

That was a pretty good PPV.



How could you not love Randy giving it to Sylvia? Although I'm happy as hell for Couture, I was hoping Cro Cop would be the one taking the belt off of "Big Tim." There's no way a Cro Cop/Sylvia fight goes to the scorecard -- it ends with Sloth's head three rows into the stands.



I couldn't believe Babalu got knocked out; that was a hell of a punch that took him out, though. Babalu really needs to beat somebody good -- if this were college basketball, his RPI would be sagging.

I agree on Cro-Cop, Geoffrey!



Just a matter of time. UFC will most likely milk the $$$ draw of watching Cro-Cop demolish a few more no-names before eventually winning the title. "The King Without a Crown" will have one soon enough.



Best move he ever made getting out of Pride. Fedor is a man amounst boys it seems. Hands down the best heavyweight I've ever seen...and I've seen every Pride and UFC to date! He will eventually lose I'd guess...but for now I'm crowning him the best fist fighter to walk the earth (in our generation.) Who knows what roamed around in the Middle Ages/Gladiator times, etc.

UFC? Sounds like a cross between UFS and KFC.



Yo Zaleski, I'll take a 3-piece original recipe with mashed potatoes and a biscuit.

~Lance For some reason, a Cro Cop/Couture battle doesn't appeal much to me -- probably because I think Randy will be in trouble. Then again, I thought Randy was in trouble on Saturday.



Really, there aren't many "dream" fights in the distant future for me: I figure we'll see Silva/Franklin 2 and GSP/Hughes 3 with the current champs winning with ease.



Chuck/Rampage is somewhat appealing, especially if Chuck shows up in this condition: ****://youtube.com/watch?v=7xwYOFIWlg8. I dare you to watch that and keep a straight face.
