His last few fights have been against joke opponents and he looked terrible. This won't get past the first round. I guarantee it.

Interested in a wager on that? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Feel free to propose terms that you'd consider fair including appropriate odds either direction.

What kind of odds are you willing to give me (if you are talking about a Hughes first round victory)?

Wow, how many times are we gonna do this thread?

Hughes wins. I don't expect it to be in the first round, though.

Not that it matters, but is Gracie allowed to wear the gi?

No

Really? Didn't know that, but I assume it probably has to do with being able to use it as a weapon.

If you want to do that you should check out a sports book. I think the line is something like 4-1 against a Gracie win. If you're right that would be a pretty decent payday. It's a horrible bet though. No way Gracie can win.

The only way Royce wins is if he is allowed to wear his gi and use it to choke Hughes out. God Gracie is a little bitch.

BCPVP,

None of the UFC fighters can wear gis anymore. Someone with more knowledge about the sport can chime in here, but its been shorts only for the past couple years, perhaps more.

Its not a rule put in specifically for this fight, or anything.

Historians wanna chime in as to why?
