THESE BETS ARE A LOCK.

by ~Stinky~fingers~ on Jun 26, 2008 2:11 PM EDT up reply actions
Stinky: instead f wasting $10,000 on McCully, why dont u just donate it to charity! No chance in hell that McCully will beat Gonzaga. I am not one of these band wagon dudes, that think Gonzaga is a legit top fighter, but all McCully can do is wrestle, and if you think he will be able t dry hump gonzaga on the ground without getting submitted, u r sadly mistaken!
I am all about betting underdogs! I have built an account on betting the dogs, and winning, but McCully WILL NOT WIN THAT FIGHT!!!
Lytle is the Dog to bet on!
by john on Jun 26, 2008 2:15 PM EDT up reply actions
look john if u bet underdogs
and want a nice pay-day then bet on mccully.
i know he sucks but
he will beat gonzaga. trust me.
even if u can afford to bet 25 bucks
u should do it.
if u dont?
then talk to me after the fights cause that and my parlay are my
big paydays.

No no no no no no..Gonzaga..will rape McCully. Gonzaga regardless of not coming out on top of Werdum..is the real deal..McCully who??? Tito’s bend over buddy..Yo Sticky..donate that $$$ to a good cause..or light ur $$$ on fire/throw some gasoline on it..and let burn..that is the equvielent of betting against Napao i nthis fight.
by PhilQNY on Jun 26, 2008 2:30 PM EDT up reply actions
I wasnt saying u need to donate to charity, thats your business. I was just making a metaphor, that betting McCully is the biggest waste of money possible.
I am an mma betting Machine, and I can count on my fingers the # of fights I have lost money on this year! I built a 5 figure betting account out of an initial $200 investment! I cant se ethe insane one beating ANYONE, let alone Gonzaga!
By the way want to buy a house in the Carribean?

Sticky what do you do for a living??? Do you want to donate to the Kimura by Fedor Charity, I just launched it today?… It’s a charity that helps one broke mofo: myself.
by Kimura by Fedor on Jun 26, 2008 3:02 PM EDT up reply actions
stinky: www.belebu.com
Honestly I think my betting percent over the past to years has to be close to 90% Correct.
Phil: Say the odds on Rampage/Forrest are:
Rampage -250
Forrest +350
Plus sign indicates the underdog. So If you bet 100 on Forrest at (+350) and Forrest wins, you would win $350 in adition to the hundred that u bet
If you want to bet Rampage (minus sign indicates underdog). If u want to win $100 on Rampage, u have to wager $250. So if you bet $100 on Rampage and he looses, u wouuld loose $250
When u see the odds, they are all based on if yuo would bet $100. So if you want to bet $50 on Rampage and he looses, you wouuld loose $125
PhilQny: Betting on underdogs earns more money, and requirs the least financial risk. When I first started, I bet mostly underdogs…after building my betting account up, then I started betting on favorites as well as dogs. U risk, a lot financially betting on Favorites, so when u r just starting out, stick to the underdogs, I found them to be extremely profitable!

no
not a done deal?
u did not tell me what i have to end my posts with for two weeks.
u say-
P.S- i smelled stinky’s fingers “and loved it”-
exactly like that^^^at the end of every post u put up for 2 weeks.
what do i have to say?

You know what Stinky? I really like that parlay you got going on there. So far for this event I already bet money on Almeida and on Rampage. So including Stevenson on a parlay along with those two and it pays out like 2.7 to 1 is not a bad bet at all. As a matter of fact, I just did it myself.
I also have a small parlay on Rampage/Lytle/Aurellio. It pays out at like 14 – 1
I went 3 for 3 last event including a parlay on Diego/Amir/Grove paying out at 6.5 – 1
STICKY, where are you getting odds on the Gonzaga fight? I don’t see them on BetUs or BoDog????
by ViolentMike on Jun 26, 2008 3:05 PM EDT up reply actions
yo john r u the one selling that place?
im not really interested in buying anymore property.
sorry. nice place though.
and phil listen to john he is right.
start on just betting agianst the odds.
but make sure when u start u bet small.
i started winning big when i first started and i got to risky. and lost alot of cash.
gambling is very dangerous. so always know your risk.
start by betting small.

John: thx…you bet on betus.com? off the link on mania I’m really thinking of opening an account with them..i figured I would win more in the long run..than losing..even though I’ve never been much of the betting type..but on a mma fight..I may hit up like cesar’s palace on a saturday night in vegas. (black chips)
Stinky~fingers : hummm.. If Gonazaga loses to McCully I put at the end of every1 of my posts 4 2weeks
(i smelled stinky’s fingers "and loved it"-)
If McCully loses..as he should.. you will put at the end of every1 of your posts 4 – 2weeks.
P.S. " I should of listened to Phil..he is always right about MMA fights. "

i dont bet over the computer violentmike.
my friend is a big gambler and about a year and a half ago i started betting.
he knew i was really into watching mma and he has a bookie who takes bets on mma and pretty much any sport.
so i started making bets through him
and over the past bit- i have met some more high steaks bookies
and i currently bet through 3 different guy’s.
that parlay is a lock. trust me.
and if u can afford to risk even 25 bucks?
u should throw it down on mccully.
u should get good odds on that fight on the internet
cause i got great odds on that fight.

Stinky: I rent that place out as extra income. In reality I will probably never sell that property. My father bought the land back in 94, and built the place from nothing. My father passes away in July and left it to me. I couldnt sell it if I wanted to, sentimental value, but I do rent it.
The beach below the house is the beach that they filmed the beach scenes from Pirates of the Carribean 2 and 3. Staff rented out my house for like 3 months, while filming!

I wasn’t on the Island while they flimed the movie. I dont thinkk any of the cast of ACTORS stayed there. It was more for the crew and all the equiptment.
The Island isnt a really big part spot, its more a chill spot for Nature Enthusiasts. When I go, I usually go with a group of friends and have my own parties, its not like Cancun where u go there to find parties.
The Island is beautiful though. Its one of the few carribean Island with a rainforrest in the middle of it, so they have tons of amazing waterfalls, boiling lakes, and they have a nature made Emerald pool which is a waterfall, that pours water into this natural pool, with like an emerald foor…its amazing. They also have an awesome river very similar to the amazon.

Stinky: How do parlays work? And, I always bet amongst my friends when we watch the fights. They’re usually small but I always come out on top. What’s the common opinion on the fights if I were to bet small? Bet on Lytle and McCully? That’s going to be tough bet on McCully, but would probably be the most profitable, I agree. What is the betting odds on McCully?

damn Stinky, I bet you get to attend a lot of MMA events too!
by c-war on Jul 5, 2008 6:59 PM EDT up reply actions
Stinky- I haven’t bet on fights so I don’t understand alot of the shakedowns on the bets. My question is: if you think Rampage is gonna win as the favorite, why bet the 15,000 at all if you are willing to put down 40,000 with him winning alongside two other picks? The payoff is gonna be greater with the parlay and the single isn’t gonna land you much in comparison. Why not keep it bundled? What is the thought process?
John, your picks are always solid. If you start losing all of a sudden it is because I have taken your advice and you are the victim of my bad luck when I have money on anything.

Hey stinky, u lost that parlay on a couple of very questionable decisions…especially the main event.
I had it 47-46 Jackson.

Matt Riddle on what really happened with the whole Jesse Taylor situation (cut n paste job): (Great Read)!
Riddle shared his recollections of Taylor’s costly final nights in Las Vegas.
“I was in the limo when [Taylor kicked out the window], and it wasn’t just the window,” Riddle said. "The night before, he got kicked out of another club for wrestling around all in the bathroom, out of control.
“Then the following night, we went out with Rampage to PURE (nightclub), and the security didn’t want to kick Jesse out because he is so big and a fighter, and the last thing they needed was this guy going crazy. So they asked me … and a bunch of guys from the show to escort him out. When we told [Taylor] he got kicked out, he flipped out in Caesars Palace.
“We were all dragging [Taylor] through the casino and trying to get him out the front door, and security was threatening to hit him up with pepper spray and Tazers because he was out of control. We finally got to the front door, and we literally couldn’t find a taxi, so I had to pay for a limo.
“In the limo, we are still holding him down because he was so pissed off and going crazy. Eventually, about 10 minutes into the ride, he calms down, and we get back to the Palace Station. Now, Zuffa (the UFC’s parent company) owns the Palace Station, so that’s why they have all the video footage. So what does JT do the second we park? (He) lies down on his back and kicks out the biggest window in the limo.”

I agree. If JT wasn’t such an idiot he would have probably won the whole thing. Anyone who gets hammered the night before a fight has no respect for the sport at all. The dude is on the verge of being an alcoholic and if he would have took this whole thing seriously he could have got the contract. For the record I don’t feel sorry for him at all.

Jesse Taylor is the meathead jock in High School that everyone is just waiting to go back to the the 20 yr reunion and see: A Washed up alcoholic, beer belly, balding-with the combover, a nasty trailer park queen ex-cheerleader- holding huggies for 4 out of control kids, still talking about that one great touchdown in high school. It happens all the time. It was like that at my ten yr reunion, same at my wifes ten year reunion, and my cousin was saying the same ting about his reunion…Good riddens to immature trash. The UFC or MMA in general does not need him to be a representative of the sport at all. As a matter of fact they should go back and edit him out of the whole season for being such a effen meathead…

I’m sorry, Iwasn’t fortunate enough to grow up in stockton, my family really has 3 houses (mountains in vermont, 8000 sq ft in mass and penthouse on beach in ft lauderdale), and you’re right, the math doesn’t add up. That said, if he really has 8 houses, and being from stockton, with these sub prime mortgages, I guarantee he’s broke. No one (except the top 3%) are vacationing and renting places like that.

Only way Forrest wins this, is if Rampage is some how not mentally ready to fight someone he knows he can beat. Besides beating Shogun does Forrest have any impressive KO’S or submissions against quality fighters?
by Robert on Jun 26, 2008 12:57 PM EDT up reply actions
That’s why I say I don’t see him winning… IMO the only way Forrest can win this is if he can avoid a TKFO in the first round and has a chance to tire Jackson a bit… Then he might ink out a decision in the later rounds
by Reldeed on Jun 26, 2008 1:00 PM EDT up reply actions
Besides beating an injured shogun, that’s all he has done. The only way Rampage loses is if he has an injury as well. This will be a pretty easy pay day for Rampage.
by jimmy_dean on Jun 26, 2008 4:10 PM EDT up reply actions
I think Rampage can take this one. That fight against Henderson showed that he can go the distance against top notch competition.
Plus if you look at some his pride fights you can see that the man can take a punch knees etc, to the head and still not be KO’d.

Hendo thought he was in a wrestling match against Rampage and thats why he lost….he never tried to land elbows or do any damage when he had Rampage down several times…he just laid on him.

People are all over here ranting about picking the ‘dog to win fights. While that sounds like a good plan and all. the fact remains that the favorite wins about 80% – 85% of the fights that have lines attached. That being said, the only dog that is gonna hunt tonight is Patrick Cote. He’s not a huge dog either, you can usually find him at +110 to +120. The favorites will win every other match.
When this (these) predictions comes true, I’ll post my future picks for the upcoming UFC events about 2 days before the events. Since I’ve begun tracking my wagering on UFC, I’m 14-1 with my one loss being I took Clay Guida over Roger Huerta, and I damn near won that one too. Not all my picks have been dogs, mind you, but 5 of the 14 wins were. Sometimes the favorite is just the right side to take, doesn’t matter the line.
by JWGacy on Jul 5, 2008 8:12 PM EDT reply actions

by J dawg on Jul 5, 2008 8:34 PM EDT up reply actions
JWGacy: SEe what u r doing is different then making predictions. All u r doing is picking fights that you are the most sure of. I have been betting mma for about 2 years and so Far I have been 90% correct and found betting on mma to be very lucrative. When I bet, of course I only bet on fights that I am the most sure of, but when I am on the site I will offer a prediction about every fight on the card….that is much harder to do then just offering predictions on a few fights that you are sure of!
Predictions for the event:
Rampage
Almeida
Stevenson
Aurelio
Lytle
Guillard
Hill
Gurgel
Gonzaga
I only bet on:
Rampage
Almeida (I bet him when he was even money weeks ago)
Lytle (Underdog)
Aurelio (Underdog)
Parlay with:
Stevenson,Rampage,gonzaga
but I have big money on Rampage so he is really the only fight that matters, because I could loose the rest but as long as Rampage wins, i will be up!

I could care less about looking silly to you. If Rampage looses I will be sick because I bet on him! I still think Forrest does not deserve to be here, I think he didnt beat the real shogun and every other decent fighter that he has faced he lost to, and I cant believe that he even had trouble with shogun in round 1, while shogun fought with a snapped ACL. Forrest didnt even really beat Bonnar the 1st time. He clearly won the second fight but Rampage is right abouit the 1st fight. However, I know Rampage wont come into a title defense (tonight) with any crazy injuries that kept him from training sufficiently for this fight so if Forrest does win, I will be shocked and very impressed, I just dont see it happening and I staked a nice amount of money to back up that claim. AS long as its a good fight, I am happy regardless! Enjoy the event!

griffin’s the underdog and i do think rampage will win. although i prefer griffin to win and evans beat liddell and make it tuf1 vs tuf2 for a title shot soon. i wouldnt say griffin “doesnt” deserve a title shot but i would say others deserve it before him. but i still wouldnt count him out. serra beat gsp and i think gsp is far better than serra. comparing serra to griffin and gsp to rampage…rampage and griffin are a much closer fight. yea rampage is a better fighter but when it comes to championship fights, the two guys fightin aint fightin for no reason. either can win if the punch lands right. my moneys on rampage (monopoly money that is ha) but no way would i count griffin out. just keep this in mind. anyone can win on any given date. dont let odds always choose your opinion on the winner

Not as much as other gamblers but after my last win of $400 on Dustin i thought i’d get lucky again. Guess not. I need a hug :-(

Its time for some people who post on this site to EAT CROW. Now maybe we can stop with all the forrest no chin comments and i believe rampages trainer will be needing to retire, like he stated. But all that aside it was a good fight and forrest was the clear winner even thought i dont think the score was that bad. So please lets not hear any bullshit just give forrest the respect hes earned.

Exactly, he beat Show Gun and Rampage and there will still be guys saying he got lucky or he doesn’t deserve to be here. Forrest is the real deal. He is the LHW champ, he definitely deserves it.

I had the fight scored 47-46 for Rampage…& I’m a huge fan of Forrest & was hoping he could pull off the upset, but I’ve got to say, he should have had to dominate the Champ to get a decision.
Even if you score it for Griffin, it was not by a wide margin.
This decision really makes me question the legitimacy of the UFC.

FORREST IS THE NEW LHW CHAMP! i scored it 3 rnds to 2 for forrest and can see the 2nd rnd being scored 10-8 easily. now all the doubters will either shut-up or they will make more excuses than the shogun fight. there were alot of veteren bloggers on here that said rampage would win easily. where are they now? even if you think rampage won(only the people who bet money on him mostly) you have to give props to forrest and stop this nonsense on how overrated he is. what really gnawed at me all week was juanitos guarantee. thats like the kiss of death in sports. it usually means a trainer,manager or coach is worried and is trying to motvate his fighter more. juanito knew the shogun fight was real and was scared. i hope juanito knows where the unemployment office is come monday if he is a man of his word.

I know John probably wont be on tonight, but I gotta call him out since he called me ignorant for saying Forrest was going to win not only against Shogun but Rampage as well. It would be extremely easy for me to insult you back right now, but I think you should just respect the opinion instead. HOLLAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! P.S. And for the love of god, dont make any excuses of why Forrest beat Rampage like he did Shogun either.

I didn’t see the fight forrests way. I also didn’t see it to be an unanimous decisioun either. I really feel that Rampage won that fight. But that 2nd rd. was a 10-8 forgriffin. GREAT FIGHT!!!!! ALSO I understand why Almedia didn’t get that decsion. He really wasn’t that aggressive and he didn’t execute his gameplan as expected. Cote’s sprawl N brawl was good. I don’t think he can pose Anderson Silva any problems……But okami on the other hand….YES! I only got to see the last three fights at the Red Zone bar in downtoen San Diego. Who do you guys think these two guys will be fighting next? Wanderlei, Thiago or Lyto?

Since Forrest won by decision it means 2 things will now happen.
1. Rampage will give Forrest his take of the purse as he said he would do in this season’s Ultimate Fighter if the fight went to a decision.
2. Rampage’s trainer will now retire as he said he would do if Forrest won on the Countdown to UFC 86.
But I doubt either will happen since those two don’t seem to have much integrity…

Ultimate fighter 7 was the best as far as it goes to the personality of the coaches. Unlike Hughs and Shitera, Tit OH and shamrock, and lil evil and shocka-bro penn—- these got along and made it a funny and interesting event to follow..
Now as the fights go it was not up to par…. bringing back Dollaway sucked….
The idots who vandalize the house will now be held accountable..
the loose authority led to the troubles that they had the last 2 shows having to kick off contestants….

I thought Forrest won that but it could’ve gone either way. I just don’t understand why alot of people are screaming conspiracy. It was close and the UFC has no control over the Nevada Athletic Comission so I don’t get how the UFC could be “fixed”. With that being said I must be missing something isn’t rampage a natural wrestler. If he would’ve taken Forrest down he easily would’ve won. I dont know if it was his leg or what. Also someone said earlier Chuck is a gate keeper and I don’t understand how that is possible.

All I have to say is HAHAHAHAHAHAHA @ stinkyfingers, the lying-ass “professional” gambler. You can talk big all you want but you’re just a kiddie and you most CERTAINLY aren’t a “professional” gambler.
How’d your “locks” go? Eh, guess it doesn’t matter, since not even someone of YOUR lacking intellect would dump any sort of money into the silly bets you named.
God nothing annoys me more than kids who have never placed a REAL bet and have never stepped into any sort of mma ring, yet, they seem to “know” everything. Go puff your head up someplace else man ;)
