UFC 115 (Vancouver, BC, Canada - GM Place)

UFC 115 (Vancouver, BC, Canada - GM Place) Rich Franklin (-114) over Chuck Liddell Rich is a smart fighter and won't take any chances. Chuck is just looking to land the right hand KO punch. Rich gets a boring decision here. Pat Barry (-141) over Mirko CroCop This fight is set up to turn Barry into a star. CroCop actually could win this fight if he takes it to the floor, but he won't. Martin Kampmann (+225) over Paulo Thiago I think Thiago wins, but Kampmann has good value here. Rory MacDonald (-125) over Carlos Condit Ben Rothwell (-160) over Gilbert Yvel Gilbert doesn't belong in the UFC period. Matt Wiman (+106) over Mac Danzig Evan Dunham (+190) over Tyson Griffin Griffin should win, but this is a high price for Griffin to lay since all of his fights go to decision and are usually decided by very close margins. James Wilks (-320) over Peter Sobotta I wasn't impressed by Sobotta against Paul Kelly. Set-up fight to get a TUF fighter an easy win. Claude Patrick (-257) over Ricardo Funch Mike Pyle (+109) over Jesse Lennox Mario Miranda (-218) over David Loiseau

I played 2 units on Pat Barry inside the distance -110. Cro Cop is done. Barry hits harder and is much faster. Maybe even a play on this fight doesn't go to the 2nd round and fastest KO of the evening. I still think Liddell wins but I'm laying off the fight. I've been told I'm just flat wrong by to many people I respect. I just don't see it, Franklin hasn't beaten anyone of quality since 05 and coming off a short camp and surgery in January for a hernia, I think he's got a shot but only because Liddell may be beyond faded.

Why bother UFC sucks. Barry knocks Cro Cop down twice in the first and then doesn't do anything for the last 13 minutes of the fight. He lacks heart to say the least. Two bad decisions by referee in two other fights. Both fights stopped when the shouldn't have. Some of the worst refereeing I've seen.

Franklin wins in the first with a broken arm. He was one punch from being KO'd and he KO's Liddell. Somewhat entertaining. ALF and Shooter and many others where right... I was not.

That's gotta be a wrap for Chuck. Even though he actually didn't look to bad the first 4 minutes. The only fight he can win anymore is another one with Tito and there is little interest in that fight anyway. I'll take 9-2 on this night though.

Bang!! Up a [B]very nice [/B]8.64 units. Thanks Shooter! Nipsy

congrads shooter, great night. Liddell's brain has been softened up, went down with a half coocked right hook that landed flush to the face, was led straight to the training room via some young blonde, chuck's had way to much pussy leading up to his latest fights.
