Ben Henderson vs Donald Cerrone
I called Ben Henderson to win this fight and the Varner fight. I’m kind of torn a little bit again here. Cerrone is a tough sob. A real tough sob, but Ben Henderson is kind of unstoppable, which then brings into the mix, fighter stamina. This is usually where Henderson has been able to take the most advantage in his fights. Cerrone couldn’t submit Henderson with a deep guillotine, a triangle with a shoulder lock that was cranking like crazy. I’ve seen Henderson also avoid being tapped in guillotines in the MFC as well. Its a huge advantage.
This fight is a pick em and the odds reflect it. Pick your favorite.
I’m staying with Henderson.
Shane Roller vs Anthony Njokuani
If Njokuani can avoid the ground I like Njokuani with the speed and reach. Early TKO for Njokuani.
Mike Brown vs Manny Gamburyan
Great fight. Most excited for this one. The odds show Brown @ -600. I think this is closer fight than that. Brown is clearly technically superior on the feet. Boxing is better, wrestling is better, and the jits is better.
Manny though has some power, not that Brown doesn’t, Gamburyan has that wild power because he swings large. You also can’t take away the Judo. I always sympathize with the Judo fighters.
Its so far illogical that Gamburyan wins this fight which is all the reason to take Gamburyan. Its a fun “what if” here because the odds don’t pay to take Brown. So I’ll be backing Manny here as he probably has the toughest fight of his career against the dominating Mike Brown.
Scott Jorgensen vs Antonio Banuelos
Jorgensen. He is on a roll now.
