UFC 76
Any links out there yet ? Anyone know the line on the Forrest/Shogun fight ? Anyone thinking -400 and below is a solid bet for Shogun ? Forrest strength is stand up but I don't see how he stands a shot against Shogun at standup.

Re: UFC 76
Did you even try going to the betting sites? The 76 lines have been up just as long as 75.

Re: UFC 76
There's only 2 sites I bet on that I really follow/trust .. I would like to be able to transfer $ around to different sites but god damn neteller ruined that for me and I haven't really wanted to trust any other companies since then. Lines seem to jump really good the day or 2 before the fight anyone think Shogun might get under -300 ? To maybe -280 ? -250 ?

Re: UFC 76
If you think -400 is fair for shogun, you are freaking nuts...
How many times has a great striker or dominant guy been KO'd or beaten decisively by an 'inferior' opponent this year? I believe the variance in these fights is much higher than any of us suspect, to be quite honest. I'd be all over forrest if he was above +300 the same way i was all over Kongo. Especially with the way both forrest and shogun tend to fight, this could turn into a simple brawl/slugfest standing, and brawls are unpredictable. It's not like shogun cleanly picks people apart, he rushes in and loves to bang and brawl... It's a high variance method to use especially with another guy who loves to clinch/brawl. Yeah... keep in mind that favorites are not always as huge as you think. MMA betting is not yet a science like baseball betting is, and i'm guessing the randomness of it often outweighs our perceptions of who is better. |

[/ QUOTE ] I don't think Shogun's style is especially high variance considering he has only lost once in the past 4 years. Not saying laying that much chalk is good here, just disagreeing with that statement. |

Jon Fitch -115 Diego Sanchez -115 Mauricio Rua -325 Forrest Griffin +250 Chuck Liddell -450 Keith Jardine +300 Courtesy of Bodog [/ QUOTE ] Hi, I havent read the whole thread I read the first couple of pages and I'll read the rest later. I've been a UFC fan forever but I just recently got reeaally into it and into betting it (after I went to the Lidell v rampage fight). I think there's good value in a lot of fights, particularly in betting dogs when they're usually coinflip matches...ie Rampage, Congo etc....So, yea I'll be posting in these MMA threads often now to try and get some good bets in. Anyway I was looking at the lines on bodog and its pretty sick...I reaally hope that I can go to bellagio tomorrow and see some better lines than these. As it stands right now I'm either not betting the Rua fight, or betting small on Forrest at +235, I'll bet a decent amount if I can get +300 on griffin or -200 on Rua which I doubt I'll get. I'm probably not betting the lidell fight just cuz I like him too much and want to root for him...but I might get greedy and bet small on Jardine at +300 I'm betting a good amount on Fitch getting decent value on what I think will be a tough ass fight for Diego comming from a loss. +115 I think is decent, Even though Sanchez is sick I've always liked Fitch and anything can happen, and from the sounds of it (rogan and white's comments for the most part) the fight is more of a coinflip. What do you guys think? |
