Murilo Rua vs Benji Radach

My pick is Murilo Rua to win

Odds : - 198

Where : pinnaclesports

9.9 units to win 5 units


On paper Murilo could have trouble with Radach if they keep it standing but I think he will work in clinch and take Benji down and Ninja's superior , underrated ground game will come in play with either gnp victory or a sub . In his last fight I backed Murilo against Tony Bonello and Rua punished this fool for talking smack . In stand up Murilo can easily hold himself , most of his losses were against fighters who Radach could only dream about facing . Murilo cant afford another loss here to Radach who never faced a top fighter in his life , those fighters who Murilo ''Ninja'' Rua has been fighting all last years .


Arlovski + Kimbo parlay would be a wise bet probably , both guys hyped big time atm and cant afford a slip .

 

[TheBrainiac]

Adding last bet :


Parlay

Kimbo Slice - 420 & Andrei Arlovski - 450

10 units to win 5.1 units


Nelson has a very slim chance beating Andrei , probably only way to win is a lucky punch but Arlovski is way too quick for this guy who will try to swing and gets laid out at some point .
Either AA by a highlight reel KO in less than 1:30 min or AA still by a highlight reel T/KO after Nelson has no gas in the tank .


Shamrock looks very small compared to Kimbo and his wrestling is questionable , not to speak he didnt win in ages and last time he subbed someone was probably in the 80s . This will be decided in stand up because I dont see Ken taking Kimbo down and holding him there long enough to do some damage or sub him , not to speak about Ken's chin which wont hold for more than 2-3 solid punches of Kimbo Slice .

 

[APwins]

any decent wrestler would take Kimbo out in about 30 seconds Shamrock has no skills left and is not in shape at all. He will get destroyed if he goes . My line has balloned to Kimbo - 550

 

[Rambo]

wow im shocked to see they made a line already for kimbo/seth

Seth Petruzelli +230
Kimbo Slice -290

 

[TheBrainiac]

WOW , great job Murilo ... on worst gameplan I have ever seen in a MMA fight . That being said Radach was really gassed in the 2nd round but Murilo couldnt land anything solid instead he took a bomb on a takedown attempt , sigh .

 

[Fuzzyxlogikk]

rua got smashed, i didnt know bengi was that good

 

[TheBrainiac]

First round Rua got rocked but came back solid , especially in the 2nd round it looked like he would be able to finish a gassed Radach but pretty unlucky on this takedown when he slipped and got caught asap .

 

[TheBrainiac]

1-1 - 7.7 units

Kimbo fight void so only 2.2 units win for Arlovski fight .

[Mr_Mark]

yea rua suprised me i picked him to win also he looked like he was goin to be koed real early in the 1st round

 

[JakeT.]

Was really impressed with Radach in the standup. That dude throws bombs. He's not very technical and I'm starting to think this Chute Boxe striking is overrated.
