Overall Record:
61-50 +35.13
*That record might look like I bet a ton of 10-unit plays or whatever but the highest I've gone is 2-unit plays and only had 2 or 3 of them. Just hitting a ton of dogs the last 1.5 years...
Mighty Mo +420
Schlit plans to keep this one standing and he has a big reach advantage but he has been knocked out in K-1 and MMA and Mo punches as hard as anyone. With the gloves being small, a KO here is very possible. Mo has said he wants to take it to the ground and has been training with Josh Barnett so look for the much smaller fighter to dictate where the fight goes and even if he can't get Schlit down, he does have that knockout power that makes this a live dog bet.
Shinya Aoki +115
Alvarez could very well KO Aoki, who has shown a questionable chin. That being said, Alvarez has never faced a submission expert and if Aoki manages to get inside and pull guard, he'll be able to win this fight as his ground game is MUCH better than what Eddie has. I love Eddie Alvarez, but so much is unknown about how he'll do against a strong ground fighter that you have to take the doggie. Aoki has gotten past powerful strikers in the past and and has a 50/50 shot to win this fight. I'll probably be rooting for Alvarez even if it costs me money since I hated Aoki's gameplan against JZ, but for what it's worth, his gameplans win fights.
JZ Cavalcante -125
JZ is going to be a tough matchup for Hansen. JZ has the wrestling advantage and his submission game will shut down anything Hansen throws at him. Both guys have shown great chins and the striking seems about even if Hansen being better with the kicks and JZ being stronger with the punches. Gotta like the guy who will likely be on top if this fight goes to the ground. JZ could easily steal these rounds or get the submission before the cards come out.
