UFC 72...the Rise of Rich Franklin
Sorry...created my own title for UFC 72. Anyways..I will post on this UFC but I can't wait for UFC 73. Sherk/Franca....Ortiz/Evans.....Silva/Marquardt...there are 6 fights on that card I can't wait for.
Anyways..on to UFC 72..feel free to post your fight picks. Down the road we'll try to run a UFC pay per view picks contest but let's focus on the now.
I got drilled and had my worst UFC in 4 years last UFC. If you follow you know I usually smoke..>I've been studying hard and I've got the winning card if you bet it like I do....here's the opening lines..remember this starts at 2:00PM CST on Saturday afternoon.
PC's early odds:
Number of new posters on the UFC in 07: over/under 12.5
Number of hits this thread gets by fight time: over/under 412
I'm poking fun..for real..it's good to see many of you start getting into the UFC. As a die hard boxing fan the MMA scene has stolen my heart in terms of combat sports. I get to see my firt Abu Dabi world championship tourney later this year in Miami...anyways...great to see the UFC banging on UFC as well. Before you know it...Gotpicks will be the featured home of UFC fight insight..Screw sherdog, screwmma weekly. Both of them are too opinionated. (In fact Jimmy I totally disagree with most of their rankings..very biased in my opinion).
That's all I got. I'll post my fight picks early Saturday morning..but please post away.............let's see what 72 has for us:

almost shit my pants when fitch got caught in that choke, never even seen a choke like that, got a laugh after the fact that fitch said he was seeing stars at one point....-350 very scary.
also, stout must have a rubber face. how the fuck was he taking the punches to the face, finally started to show but it took to the end of the third before his face looked busted.
on to ufc 72
early looks jmac, t. griffin, and okomi.
cant see davis losin, looks like they just picked his opponet bc he's from the uk. but price to high, -450 on bodog.

Let's get rollin, sorry no write up, I'm at work and don't have time for the logic...I am betting this card exactly as I have it layed out:
Main Event: Roll on Rich Franklin -185...2 units
Risking 3.7 units to win 2
Undercard:
Roll with me on the Carpenter Clay Gaudia and his aggressive ground and pound:
1 unit to win 1.7 units (+170)
Roll with me on Ed Herman -150
1.5 unit to win 1 unit
BEST BET: ROll with me on Jason MacDonald to destroy Rory Singer by referee stoppage. SInger is gonna get pounded as MacDonald has good defense and Singer can't strike to save his life.
2 units on Jason "the athlete" Macdonald -225
Risking 4.5 to win 2 units on "The Athlete"
Good luck boyz...

rollin w/ PC as my top play of the day is j macdonald. his all around game should be too much for singer. believe he just must better than all these former tuf fighters he gets matched up with.
MacDonald "the tuf killer" -250 3 units loadin up on this one
Tyson Griffin -210 1 unit
Yushin Okami +175 .5 unit more for action, but guy has a 6 fight win streak. Can the string of upsets on ppv main events continue? prolly not, but ill take my chance here.
