what is your reasoning behind wanting to go big on chonan? i realize he is a quality fighter getting pretty juicy odds, but i don't remember being the least bit impressed by him in any of his pride fights that i've seen...i'm also not sure how great an idea it is to bet on fighters coming into the cage for the first time after a long layoff while their pride contracts were in limbo. i just think that unless you have quality information, their training during this time is a rather substantial question mark

that being said, part of me really wants to put a bet down on Gono too just because im a fan, although i probably won't because the line is not attractive at all...basically im looking forward to his entrance just as much as any of the fights on the card

i think im with a lot of you guys where the only bet that looks even close to having good value to me is Edgar

edit: what do you guys think about Overeem getting +125 vs. Buentello in Strikeforce? Buentello's last fight was against Carter Williams who didn't even look like a legitimate K1 fighter, much less an MMA fighter in that match...this seems like a rather large step up in competition for Buentello to still be the favorite
