    Awesome and Thanks again Gygax. I did a little betting today and the rest come weigh ins. Looks like there's some points to be made. I can see that baby Fedor dude beating Buentello and I also see Belfort beating Linland as well.

    I think Belfort will beat Lindland; especially if he shows up like his last fight.

    Dammit, I should have waited one more day to post these.

    Horodecki has been scratched due to failed medicals. All bets on his fight will be returned tomorrow.

    I'm not sure Belfort can beat Lindland, but I sure as hell will be rooting hard for the Phenom. Someone please retire Lindland!

    Well that sucks. I was actually really looking forward to that fight. I don't like Horodecki and was hoping to see him lose.

    Even with a loss MMAweekly will probably rank Lindland third still.

    I don't know about anybody else, but I'm starting to wanna see Arlovski lose just because of some of the stupid comments that Freddie Roach has been making.

    Wow i cant believe how many are betting against Fedor. You guys just want to see him lose or actually believe the pitbull can take him down?

    I think Arlovski has a very good chance against Fedor - I also really like potential payoff

    I don't think AA will beat Fedor. I think he's got the potential and the tools to do so. And, he has to throw the perfect fight plan together and then go out and execute it. All that said, I'll believe it when I see it. Cro Cop and Silva are two big strikers who had game plans too and Fedor put all that out the window once the bell rang.

    The only way AA can beat Fedor is by a KO. He´s inferior in every aspect of the game except maybe in striking and to be honest, Fedor´s no slouch in striking either. Andre is a good fighter, but he´s not good enough. To beat Fedor you need to be equal in all aspects and the only one I can think of who is smart enough and good enough (on the ground) is Barnett. However, just because Barnett has the best shot, doesn´t mean he can beat him.

    Fedor is just on another level. He´s the type of fighter that comes along every 20-30 years and just dominates until Father Time catches up with him, or he retires. His track record speaks for himself, even if some of his opponents weren´t the best fighters, he still displayed his skills in every fight.

    If you want to hug on somebodies nuts, let it be Fedor´s.

    Seikan, that documentary you posted? TRULY sold me on Fedor. Not that I wasnt sold on him? BUt most U.S. fans have limited knowledge of him, his history,etc.

    That documentary? Man, you walk away from it in awe literally at just how good Fedor is. Not just in fighting? But mentally. The man is just so at peace with his mind, body, and spirit? Few if any othr MMA fighters or people for that matter achieve that level of inner peace.

    THat man will be tough if not impossible to defeat. Someone that balanced in all areas of his life?

    Truly an awesome individual.

    I will admit I was not going to buy the PPV for Affliction. But after watching that documentary? I truly can say I was so inspired about Fedor? I will buy any card that man is fighting on.

    Fedor just won a new fan in MTKrav911.

    A truly awesome human being!
