Wow, I didn't think Kurt would be that big of an underdog against Nate. In my mind, he's the favorite in the fight. I may be laying down some points on Pellegrino.

I picked Nate for the fantasy picks, but I am with you on being shocked by the odds. I think that this is one fight I won't bet on unless I am betting on Kurt on account of the odds.

Just so everyone knows. If you are involved in the UFC Fantasy stuff you only have a little over 16 hours left to get your card in. I only bring this up because this seems to be about a day earlier than usual and I know I would have been locked out if I had not decided to take care of my picks now thanks to this bookie thread reminding me that the UFN was just around the corner.

That Irvin/Alexander one is tempting. I really like Irvin, but totally do not deny Alexanders power. Irvin has been inconsistent the last year and a half plus had a bad injury. But he's still Irvin, his style is so similar to Alexander.

I really don't know.
Ya Krav. I like Irvin a lot, but I tried to stay away from betting in this fight. I pit 5k on Irvin. He has just as much power, but more technique than Houston. It is whoever hits the other one first lol.

19000 on Thiago Alves. I just found out that he spent the last 6 weeks training with Jimmy Pedro leanring as much Judo defense as poosible and from the sounds of it should be prepared for anything Karo might try.
