Ok, I've done your suggested 'Decisions' @ 9/1  and also done Woodley by decision @ 29/20

My random puntbet is...

Overeem in the 2nd
Evans by TKO/KO
McCall

Cheeky £10 at 39/1 

Roll on the prelims!!


I'd like to see Luke do well too, but he just comes off slightly annoying with his 'I've got nothing' and reminds me of that guy last season who bit the fella he was fighting 

Thought it was a pretty awkward performance too and will be interested to see how he copes going forward.

Chael Sonnen is an absolute hero and I'm still so gutted that he didn't beat Silva at 148 in the summer!!

Only just saw your post, makes a good read and agree with large %% of the bets.

I had an 82% win rate on UFC fight picks last year, and cant disagree at all.

Decisions is a great bet.

Im quite tempted for a late treble:

Tibau + Volkmann + Fitch

But i cant stand Fitch and would love Maia to crush him......will be interesting if it goes to the ground!?

Good card so far!

[Marky147]

Plan B...

Overeem and Evans both by KO/TKO

[scotty2hatty]

Nothing went too well at UFC 156 betting wise, except in the ME. Next time.

POTENTIAL TUF SPOILER IN THIS LINK. DON'T OPEN IF YOU AINT SEEN EPISODE 3.

Not wrong, bookies must have made a killing with all those upsets!

Evans fight was a disgrace and he shouldn't even get paid for that!

Overeem expected to walk through him I think and looked pretty lazy on the most part I think. I haven't watched it again yet and maybe am being a bit harsh...

Looks like they need to find a knockout artist for Aldo

[scotty2hatty]

Think it's Aldo v Pettis next which is a crazy fight. Pettis dropping down to take him on.

Usually I'm pretty solid at finding the upsets but not 156, just didn't see them coming.

Took all week to get caught up on Sky+
I actually enjoyed the Maia v Fitch fight more than I thought I would. Nice to see Fitch dominated and frustrated for a change

Overeem was looking in control until he got punished for the disrespect. I heard its JDS next, which will be a cracker.

I actually didn't think Rashad v Little Nog was that bad either. Certainly not the barn burner we'd hoped for, but not the shocker Marky describes either. I thought Rashad edged it personally, but close enough that it could have gone either way.

Thought Frankie held his own. I think I heard someone say if Frankie and Aldo were locked in a room for an hour, it's Frankie that'd come out the winner, which I think is about right. Would love to see Aldo move up and beat the snot out of Henderson, who I can't stand.

TUF was great. Jones' lad was doing ok but Hall is UFC-ready.
Great to see Sonnen owning Jones as a coach. Hope he cancomplete a shut out and follow it up in the cage.
BELIEVE!

[scotty2hatty]

Have two tickets for Saturday night, £100 for the pair. Awesome card. And you get to sit next to me.

Paging Scotty

What you on tonight mate?

Had a bit of Hendricks KO/TKO or @ 3/1 with PP and hope he puts a proper haymaker into Condit on the way to GSP!

GSP fight I'm expecting it to be in the same vein as his fight against Koscheck and he will just punch him about whilst in the top position over 5 rounds. Can't really bet that at 8/15, so I think I'll have a tickle on GSP actually pounding him out this time @ 4/1 with Lads.

The undercard has been sick, excellent fight there, and that Jordan Mein looked electric.

Yeah Cote was good there, the other fella didn't look too bad either.

I was having a doze and missed that one

For me that fight could of gone either way.

Loving this fight, as I was all over the SMASHES and the Ultimate fighter with Ricci who was out brawled by a US marine! Doubt the mackem will have enough for the pretty boy.

Yeah, I watched all of those too and they're great. I didn't realise Ricci was fighting a weight class above against Colton Smith too, well until Joe said about it before the fight.
