My 4 units lost says that beating Nate was a significant thing.

Also, did this past weekend not prove that upsets can and do happen? It's so funny how once an upset actually happens everyone starts subconsciously coming up with reasons about how it was DESTINED to happen and it's really not that big of deal at all.

Someone's going to whip Silva's ass eventually.

I'm not a spaz like most people.An upset happened last weekend big deal doesnt mean Silvas going down next.

Re: UFC 117

Only 4? Marquardt cost Me a total of 13.5u between the two parlays I had him in. He was the only one to lose in the parlays(I had Demian Maia over Dan Miller and Randy Couture over Mark Coleman on one, and Maia on another with Nate before the lines got too crazy). If only Sonnen would have just tapped out like a normal person to that choke...

Nate's "overrated" now ONLY because he lost to Sonnen.

That's ultra-shitty. For me, a 4u bet is significant, since it represents 8% of my bankroll. I'm not sure what 1u is for you, but I can imagine that losing 13.5u really sucks. I never play for those kind of stakes on a single fight. I'm also too afraid of another GSP/Serra or BJ/Edgar.

Nate was overrated in my book before the Sonnen fight thats why I never bet him in that fight

Re: UFC 117

Well I had made the mistake of falling into the Marquardt hype that he was the best middleweight in the world not named Anderson Silva. Kinda sucked, alot... Like a starving hooker with braces.

I dont remember if I didnt believe the hype or it was the fact the line was -375.I usually dont bet over -325 unless I'm really sure.It was probably a little of both

Re: UFC 117

I was really sure, BOL. I was 100% positive that Sonnen had nothing for Marquardt, since Nate's striking was crisp, his Wrestling was good, his Grappling was better than good, and his size made him a problem for any other Middleweight. I didn't give Sonnen enough credit, and I paid for it.

I think the last time I did that was when I had NOG -330 over Mir


Did you read that last post I made about matchbook commission?

Re: UFC 117

Doesnt the guy that Andy fights AFTER, he pisses Dana off, get starched?

I will be on Silva fo sho.

Re: UFC 117

Silva will probably win. He knock Sonnen out on the feet, and could sub him off his back. But Chael can and will take Silva down if he can get ahold of him without getting Ko'd. He does have a chance. If he can do that to Silva for the 1st two rounds, he may tire Silva out and do it for the rest of the fight.

Re: UFC 117

I know one thing for sure.

Sonnen will sell the FUCK out of this fight!

we could probably fill an entire thread up with all the quotes Sonnen will make.

Should be pretty funny shit.
