Jon Jones the UFC 128 Betting Lines Favorite

Vladimir Matyushenko vs Jon Jones
Immediately after his hand was raised in the Octagon, this past Saturday night at UFC 126, Jon Jones was told he would be receiving the Light Heavyweight title-shot in just six weeks against Mauricio “Shogun” Rua. The news brought Jones to his knees and he accepted the challenge with huge excitement and appreciation after hearing his Jackson’s Submission Fighting teammate, Rashad Evans had to pull out of the title-tilt due to a knee injury. Jones is not deterred from taking this fight, as he manhandled Ryan Bader through two rounds before choking him out with 40 seconds left in the second and seems to have barely endured a scratch, plus he says he’s already in fighting shape.  His only concern is to not over-train.

Within minutes of the fight announcement, tickets sales for the UFC 128 bout in New Jersey, (neighboring state to Jones’ home state of New York) were reportedly skyrocketing. And now the betting lines are showing Jones as the favorite by as much as -215.

It’s not that surprising seeing as Shogun hasn’t fought since last May. And though he took the title from Lyoto Machida with an impressive KO in the first round, it has been over 10 months since we’ve seen him inside the Octagon, which almost makes him out of sight, out of mind. Currently all hype is squarely on Jon Jones who appears to be the biggest rising star in the UFC.  However, with all the new attention this bout will be getting in the coming weeks leading up to the March 19th Main Event, we expect we’ll see a lot of movement on these lines, so if you think Rua’s experience can beat Jones’ youth then take advantage of his underdog value now which is as much as +175.

It’s your last chance to place your bets for UFC: Fight for the Troops 2 and the only sure thing you’re feeling is excitment to see your favorite Octagon Girls donning camo-bikinis tomorrow night. We know! Finally, something different! It’s like, yeah they’re beautiful and you love them, but when you see them in the same outfit month after month, sometimes twice and even three times in that month, you start to stray and want to look at this girl here or this girl here, and you don’t want to be a bad guy. You want to be loyal to your favorite girls! So thanks UFC for giving us a little naughty military wear to spice up our viewing pleasure. Now let us here at Fix help you with your other addiction

For the best dog money value, you might want to place your money on George Roop in his bout with Mark Hominick.  Roop’s dog value is as high as +200 on Betus: here and about +190 on the other major online sportsbooks. We like Roop because it looks that he’s found his home in the 145 lb division. By all accounts, he would have won his Fight of the Night bout which ended in a Draw against Leonard Garcia at WEC 47, had he not been deducted a point for a groin kick. George Roop also surprised everyone in his next fight against The Korean Zombie, Chan Sung Jung, when he ended the fight early in the second round with a head kick, earning Knock Out of the Night honors.

Dana White has said, Mark Hominick will get the title-shot against Jose Aldo in his home country of Canada at UFC 129, should he win the fight against Roop. White stated if Roop wins, they’ll “have to go back to the drawing board.”  This could be incentive but also it could mean mounting pressure for the Shawn Tompkins protege. Hominick is coming off a split-decision win over Leonard Garcia and he’s facing a fellow Team Tompkins teammate in Roop, so the two men have sparred together in training several times and both know what to expect. It just seems here, Roop has nothing to lose, so maybe that might be all he needs to win.

We also like Evan Dunham a lot in his Main Event fight against Melvin Guillard but are really surprised by the numbers. Dunham is the favorite by as much as -260 at Betus. We agree Dunham should win this bout. He’s faced a bit tougher competition than Guillard in recent fights and there’s not one person, besides well this judge that thought he actually lost his UFC 119 bout against Sean Sherk, but that said…we might follow similar logic as to why we’d bet on Roop… There is added pressure for Dunham to win this fight or it might make the controversial Sherk match, a moot point.  Guillard isn’t expected to win, even though he’s a Greg Jackson team member and is on a 3 fight win-streak right now, most recently against UFC 125 Knockout of the Night winner, Jeremy Stephens.  And though, Guillard is a late replacement for the injured, Kenny Florian, keep in mind Guillard was already training and in fighting shape to face Yves Edwards on the preliminary card. So maybe that +200 dog money is worth laying on the line for Guillard: here.

For the expert MMA fan who’d like to try their hand at picking specific odds like Dunham by Decision or Inside Distance, you can place your bets at Bodog: here. Or if you think you can guess how many minutes a fight will last then have a little Nostradamus prediction fun at Bookmaker: here.

UFC 126 Betting Odds: Forrest Griffin is Your Best Value Bet

We’re already seeing public money come heavily on Forrest Griffin for UFC 126, so we suggest getting this line now before it further evens out. Griffin opened at +170 to +190 on most betting sites and has now shifted to around +140 to +155.

We’re already seeing public money come heavily on Forrest Griffin for UFC 126, so we suggest getting this line now before it further evens out. Griffin opened at +170 to +190 on most betting sites and has now shifted to around +140 to +155.
We’re not sure why Griffin’s the dog here; based on information that we’ve learned, we feel if anything, the odds should be close to even, if not in slight favor of Forrest. So while he’s still valued as the dog at +155, grab him at Betushere.
