UFC 77 Discussion thread

[Viscant]

The Sylvia fight was basically worst case scenario. That was the worst Tim that could have possibly come out. Still a fairly easy win. I expected the fight to go more like round 3 the whole time with Tim stalking and battering. Oh well whatever, it was a win.

Also I wouldn't worry about the lines moving just yet. The public is still very green when it comes to picking MMA. People are betting their hearts way more than their heads; popular fighters are overrated very frequently. Also, judging by how little it seems like the lines move post weighins, it seems like the smart money is a smaller percentage of the money wagered, at least as opposed to how boxing usually works.

I could be wrong, but I think MMA betting will stay juicy for at least a few more months. There's been one or two silly lines on every numbered UFC for the past 5-6 months. I don't see this changing.
