UFC 133 In Fight Pierce vs. Hendricks

thegovernor11 — Sat, 06 Aug 2011 23:23:21 +0000

Johnny Hendricks standup has much improved since his last fight and looks much more mobile. Knew there was a reason why I was scared of him in this fight. Though in this second round Pierce is coming back strong.

**Update**
19:26
Super close second round. Can’t really score because I looked away a few times to watch the Sox game. But Pierce is getting outwrestled and it’s definitely messing with his game.

**Update**
19:30
Over bet won. Super pscyched about that. Pierce also just scored a takedown so this fight is going to be super close. Won’t be suprised if Hendrciks wins though either outcome won’t upset me.

**Update**
19:34
I gave the third round to Pierce and Sherdog gave the second round to Pierce so I might have a chance at this haha.

**Update**
19:35
Damn it. Split decision 29-28 both ways but the third for Hendricks. What I get for having my opinion swayed by Vaughany, who by the way murders MMA over at SBR. He had so much out there on Pierce (20 plus units I believe) and because I was leaning that way I figured it warranted a small small play. Oh well, I won the more important bet and Sox won.

UFC 133 In Fight Brown vs. Pham

thegovernor11 — Sat, 06 Aug 2011 23:02:10 +0000

Everything I was expecting is happening haha. But if I bet this I would’ve loss because it’s going to a draw.

**Update**
19:09
Damn, no draw. Brown won 29-28 on two cards and 29-27 on the third. All solid cards in my opinion. I personally had it 29-28 with going 1st 10-8 2nd 9-10 3rd 10-10 in favor of Mike Brown.

UFC 133 In Fight Thoughts

thegovernor11 — Sat, 06 Aug 2011 22:50:03 +0000

Was going to take Nam Phan in this fight but thought better of it. Questioning Phan’s chin and his takedown defense. If he can stay on the outside and not get clipped he’ll win no problem. I just don’t know if he can. Another question about this fight is if Brown can’t get the takedown or struggles in getting it, will he gas like he has in his last two fights? Too many questions to lay money down in this fight. Brown’s the better fighter when he has his shit together but who knows if he does.

I’ll update this same post as I make the rest of my picks.

4.5* Vitor Belfort -295 vs. Yoshihiro Akiyama

**Update**
17:12
If you can find it I’d bet Pierce vs. Hendricks to go to decision or bet both guys to win by decision. The fight is going the distance. 5Dimes doesn’t have that prop and Bodog has it but I pulled all my money out of that account because of its pending pull out of the US. Hopefully 5Dimes will get it’s act together.

**Update**
Found it.
2.5* Mike Pierce vs. Johnny Hendricks OVER 2.5 Rounds

**Update**

1* 3 Team Parlay +117
—Vitor Belfort vs. Yoshihiro Akiyama -320
—Mike Pierce vs. Johnny Hendricks OVER 2.5 Rounds -240
—Chad Mendes vs. Rani Yahyah -600

**Update**
18:02
Last one. Was very high on Pierce but then got a little hesitant so now I’m just playing him small. Don’t know why I’m not but I really should be betting closer to 1 to 1.5 units here.
.5* Mike Pierce +130 vs. Johny Hendricks

UFC 133

thegovernor11 — Sat, 06 Aug 2011 18:50:04 +0000

Still breaking down film and what not but right now my only sure pick is Vitor Belfort. Trying to decide how many units to put on him but it will be at least three.

Well that sucked. The one way I said Leben wins he does. What I get for rolling the dice and not taking the free profit of Wand to win and Leben by KO. Definitely my worst outing since I think UFC 106. Ugh.

4* Melvin Guillard -270 vs. Shane Roller…WIN
