tuf finale
The UFC competing with Mayweather - Hatton, tough spot for them but should be a good card tonight. Personally, ill prolly tivo it in favor of the boxing.
My confidence took a serious hit when my two large plays wernt even competitive at 78, but i got a few possibles lined up for tonight. Looking for some opinions from any other fight fans who watched the show this season, i missed a nimber of episodes. Mainly b/c I cant stand the whole reality tv drama bullshit.

I'll post a little later..right now the lean is on Huerta as a dog over the Carpenter.
I also like Mac to beat Tommy in the finale but I'll post how I'm playing it here in a couple of hours.

i took mac fairly large the other day at -140, but i was thinking about betting back after i read how mac was saying the 170's are to big for him and he is dropping to 155 after the show. speer is a big ass 170 too and did have 3 tough fights on the show.
also, i feel like whenever i jump the gun and play something early it bites me. but mac is so much more experienced and speer did get caught in subs that almost ended his fist two fights, so ill prolly let it ride.
also considering saunders if he drops to the 220 range and rollins but havnt made anu moves yet.
guida/huerta - just lookin to see a good fight, will prolly tail you small.
best of luck on your plays.

I got 3 for ya:
BEST BET: Roger Huerta to win by decision or knockout over one of my favorites, Clay the Carpenter Guida. This is going to be a great fight as both go forward and both are rock solid at standup and jujitsu. You won't see much hesitation in this fight and I think Huerta is the tougher and better at stand up. On the ground, Guida is tireless and does nothing but go for submissions. I will take Huerta to win 2-1 on the rounds.
2 units on Roger Huerta +105ML
Prediction: Huerta by decision
Pick #2:
Troy Mandenelaz +120 to beat Richie Hightower.
Of all the fighter this season, Hightower seemd to learn and get better at an excelerated rate. His learning curve is great but I think he's fighting a guy who is smarter and will use his experience. Troy had good stand up and from what I remember of the show, Hightower isn't exactly a ground and pound guy. Very good value and I would have set the line the other way.
1 unit on Try +120
Pick #3:
I'll take John Kepenhavor (spelling?) -120 over JRock
The man from team hughes is physically ripped and obviously in shape. But he got drilled by George on the show and really didn't show me anything. No take downs, not much stand up, just basically got drilled as he was tentative. Kepenhavor on the other hand almost had Tommy Spears beat with a guillotine in the first. He just wasn't strong enough to win the next two rounds. I also think John is much tougher, both mentally and because of where he came from. He is literally fighting for his life as he needs the fights and the money and the job much more than Jrock. Blue collar win tonight in what could be a bloody war.
1 unit on John Kepenhavor -120
GL.
Small card for me. I'm very excited to see the Huerta/Guida fight. Should be absolutely great. Nothing really jumps out but I might add a unit or 2 on Huerta or Troy if my hoops go well.

This should be a fun card to watch. Especially since it's free. I don't think I am making any bets tonight. I just have too many close ones. But if I do I will be back to tell you guys about my best well in advance. PC and others good luck on the bets and watching the fights. I am going to be watching the free event and skipping the pay per view. I know the bars will be crowded. I am praying pretty boy fag gets killed tonight!!!! War Hatton and War Huerta!!!!!

It was an undercard fight, you missed the window before they closed it.
We won though$$$
Troy Mandaloniz (Pictures) vs. Richie Hightower (Pictures)
Round 1
In what looked mostly like a boxing match, Troy Mandaloniz and Richie Hightower went toe-to-toe for several minutes until Hightower briefly took Mandaloniz down. Lots of punches ensued, with Mandaloniz picking his opponent apart with shots from several angles and the occasional knee. A Mandaloniz straight left followed by three right-handed hammer fists ended the night for Hightower at 4:20 of the first.

Yes, great calls today, PC.
The main event and the Kepenhaver fights were awesome. No way the mayweather/Hatton fight can compare. Boxing is dead. Bring on MMA!
