I will humor you. This event the fights are real close to call, so for big betting I wouldnt bet on this event. Wandy is insanely aggressive but I think Jardine is gonna surprise people and take this one to the ground, or just counter-strike when Wandy comes forward. Sherk is the epitome of a great wrestler with his ability to maintain position and control his opponent on the ground, but Bj is the epitome of a BJJ artist and is tremendously dangerous on his back. BJ has the upper hand til it goes to the later rounds, this fight I put money on Sherk but I wouldnt drop a big bet on any fight of this event.

I think Machida will pull out a victory due to Tito slowing down since his past injuries but Tito will have size on Machida and that will play effect on the takedowns. You might as well wait on a future event bro to drop some money and just enjoy watching this one.

Lay it all on Machida to make the chedda! Gouveia and Carwin are also good.

You came to Sherdog for advice? 90% of users on here are morons.

Sherk because the odds of him winning are greater than the odds he is getting. Only GSP has finished him and that was fighting at 15lbs heavier, his only other loss is to another wrestler in Hughes. If you can't outwrestle Sherk, then you lose. BJ has a lot of issues about conditioning and it might not even matter what Sherk does in the fight because BJ could beat himself.

Sherk +180

I thought about Rich Clementi over Terry Etim . Rameau Sokoudjou over Nakamura . My problem is that I dont know much about some fighters thats why I asked for help here . Very unlikely I will be interested in Wanderlei vs Jardine fight tho because its really coin flip as far as I can see . Mainly I am looking for the picks of all but Wanderlei , BJ and Machida fights because those are really hard to predict IMO . Anybody with knowledge of other fights will be rewarded if the play is right .

before you lay your $ on Machida,

remember that Tito basically beat Rashad.

If Tito takes Machida down, problems could occur for the Dragon.

The smart $ is on Keith Jardine. At +160 you can really bank here. Bad matchup here IMO for Wandy in every way (reach, camp, chin, momentum, leg kicks, etc...)

You bet $1000 on the Dean, you win $1600,

and in my mind it's sure bet. Wandy can only win IMO if he closes early in the first round. He's not used to the cage, and it will be a TKO victory for Jardine. Jardine is ranked higher at LHW, and he just beat Chuck, and Chuck beat up on Wandy.

Think about it, if you bet $1000 on BJ, you only win $400 ........ not worth it if it goes past round 3 IMO.

Smart money is on the Dean of Mean.

UPDATE :

Not interesting in

BJ Penn vs Sean Sherk
Lyoto Machida vs Tito Ortiz
Antonio Mendes vs Thiago Silva

picks because I can see them go either way or not worth playing Thiago case where odds are at around - 700 .
