Its all goneee, now we just have to see how its played out. I picked all favorites but those are the dudes I like, I don't see any upsets, and if there is 1 or 2, it wont screw it up the much. SILVA, SHERK,TITO,NOG,BONNAR,GURGEL,EDGAR,KENFLO. Bigger bets on bigger fights and I got the most riding on Sherk cause I just can't see him losing this fight.

Some of these odds are brutal, hopfully Sherks and George's odds would be a bit better, oh well this is a big red sign pointing to put points into Tito.

What have we all learned this year? There are ALWAYS upsets. Perhaps the biggest upset would be if there were no upsets at all. There will be two, three or even four upsets at UFC 73. The trick is simply picking which ones. And I feel very confident that I will pick none of them. har har

Getting conservative with the "one million"-limit approaching, I see.

Plus his bank interest is probably somewhere around 20 K now.
If not more.


Hardly worth the risk.

ya but big nog has already fought herring. Herring showed he doesnt have that great of ground skills against o'brien. It is a pretty safe bet.


EDIT: plus nog has a great chin. Cro cop doesn't have the greatest jaw.

I'm thinking Robinson can pull off the upset.

Depending on how he looks in the weigh-ins, I may bet heavy on him.

No doubt in my mind Robinson will win, I think he will be too big and too aggressive for Ken-Flo.

I was thinking that to. But then he only has submission wins and kenflo has great submissions

I've never heard of Robinson, but looking at his record, it looks like he's a grappler. And if he's experienced, I doubt he's gonna get caught in a submission.

Robinson said in his UFC interview that he trains for 5 five-minute rounds. So I expect him to be in good shape.

And if he looks bigger than Florian at the weigh-ins, I'm gonna bet on him.

Alot of speculation on my part, but I think he can earn a decision by just being the bigger, stronger grappler.

LOL... Gooner is right, I'd make about 60000 with 6 days interest... definitely not worth the risk.

UFC 68 was actually the biggest with 443 bets. Thus far, we're at 268 bets for UFC 73 and it's only Wednesday. Many people hold out until they milk their very last interest payments and bet late in the week. I still believe it will top the record.

I normally like to watch the weigh ins first, but Silvas odds were awesome so incase it was a mistake, I still wanted the .62 odds.....
