    Hamilton 7/4 to beat Chisnall looks decent, wouldn't be the first time someone's gone out straight after beating Taylor.

    Jesus Christ.

    Brock Lesnar to win in Round 1 (7/1)
    Brock Lesnar to win in Round 2 (11/1)

    With Ladbrokes. That is some serious value.

    I cant turn a blind eye to those odds even if I think Reem is the favourite here.

    I'd still give Graham credit for what he did in the rematch going away and all. Plus for me the Jackson stoppage took a lot out of him and he looked kind of done after the devastating Grant loss and his relationship with Ingle becoming strained when Ingle sold his contract.

    Kalambay gave a bit of a last hurrah against Collins, but Collins was kind of made to order for him. Steve always struck me as not having the best ring IQ in that he didn't know what strategy to employ at the right time, it kind of hurt him that he was a bit of an all rounder. What i mean by that is, even though he wasn't the best at it he could still be good on the edge, mid or even long range. But he wasn't as effective with that style when he was facing better technicians.

    When he mauled effectively and pressed the action, imposing his physicality like in the second half of the McCallum fight he could be hard to keep honest. His decision making wasn't the best though. He should've really been beating Kalambay at that stage imo. But it was a combination of Kalambays brillience in rolling back the years, the style advantage and Collins suspect ring intelligence against good technicians, who confused him.

    I have never seen Reem fight but **** me they are great odds. Im getting on that.
     
  6. Barkley vs Graham would have been a fight where you'd have been sat on the edge of your seat all night..... Graham would win almost every round, it would be interesting once Barkley clipped him though.

    Na not the best, frank mirr and Cain got the better of him, with overeem it's 50/50 I'm on the fence but think reem could easily stop him

    I'm no expert in MMA but isn't it basically that Lesnar cannot take a punch, and Overeem is a very good striker? Then again Lesnar is a decent wrestler (the real kind), and if my occasional forays into MMA betting has taught me anything it's be careful betting against a wrestler.

    8/1 Lesnar round 1
    11/1 round 2

    In a fight where Lesnar is priced 13/10 (best) and most fights end in KO do they not? Very bizarre.
