UFC 88 Breakthrough Prop Bets

UFC 88 Breakthrough sports betting props bets are now out at 5 Dimes.com
5 Dimes is the only online sportsbook to offer UFC betting proposition bets, and they have just released exotic wagers for the UFC main event between Chuck he Iceman Liddell and Rashad Sugar Evans.

Many online sports bettors are not giving Evans a chance in this fight but he has been training hard with Georges St Pierre at his Pre UFC camp in Montreal Canada.

Fighting-mma.com UFC betting prediction for this fight was with the online sportsbook odd makers in that Liddell would win this fight but the staff handicapped that this fight would go the distance.

If you bet this UFC prop bet at 5 Dimes to go all three rounds and the distance the betting adds are Liddell/Evans goes distance +100. If you did a parlay in addition to this bet it would offset the large -255 on the Liddell bet.

As a UFC bettor the odds are just a little too steep to wager on Liddell at -285. If you want to wager on Liddell he will win this fight but there are much better UFC bets to lay your money on to get a better betting return. As a wager I would lay my money on a UFC prop bet for this fight to go the distance. Rashad Evans is a very game fighter with good cardio and will be well coached by Greg Jackson. Evans will stick and move in and outside of Liddell range.

From http://www.fighting-mma.com/mma-matchups/2008/ufc-88-betting-chuck-liddell-rashad-evans.php

If you are feeling lucky you can bet on the fight to be a draw at +5000. Hey stranger this have happened and remember that Evans has also drawn in the past with Tito as UFC 73 - Stacked

The Ultimate Fighter 8 Cast members

UFC betting at BetCRIS.com

The Ultimate Fighter 8 Cast members have been reveled for season 9 that will headline two UFC heavyweight coaches that include UFC interim heavyweight champion Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira and former champion Frank Mir who is the number one contender for the crown. This year’s TUF members will be represented by the Lightweights and Light heavyweights.

Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira will have a star studded line up helping him coach with pound for pound fighter best fighter in the world Anderson Silva and top light heavyweight contender Lyoto Machida while Mir will have one of the top BJJ grapplers in the world helping him in Robert Drysdale. Which team will prevail and who will the fighters want to coach form them?

The experience is overwhelming on the side of Nogueira but will the language problems lead the fighters to want to train with Mir and Drysdale.

The TUF season 9 will premiere on Sept. 17, 2008 on Spike TV will feature fighters in the 205-pound and 155-pound divisions. Like last year the reality show members will have to fight to get in the UFC house. After the season is over the two coaches will fight for the UFC heavyweight title.The cast members will represent some very strong MMA team like Shane Nelson from BJ Penn Camp,Team Renzo Gracie, Team Quest and American Top Team. Before the show has even aired the online MMA forums have been buzzing about who has already won the show. Many are pointing Joseph Duarte as the lightweight winner. If you look at Joe Durante he is a beast. Dana White has already commented about how he has found the next Anderson Silva and many believe he was referring to Joe Durante. The lightweight side is stacked with Jose Aguilar who is 17 and 3, Phillipe Nover and Shane Nelson as the early UFC betting favorites.

On the heavyweight side, the field is wide open but there are some notable names, or last names for that matter. Lance Evans (4-2) is the brother of TUF heavyweight winner Rashad Evans and Jason Guida (26-13) is the brother of Clay Guida will also represent the light heavyweight side.

The final online betting lines are out at online sports betting sportsbook 5 Dimes for the upcoming UFC 87 Seek and Destroy that will headline top 170 welterweight fighter Georges St Pierre versus American Kickboxing Academy fighter Jon Fitch. The online UFC betting odds are distinctly in favor of GSP at -345 but there are many online UFC betting props for this particular MMA fight. If you want a UFC handicapping prediction for this fight go to http://www.fighting-mma.com/mma-matchups/2008/ufc-87-online-betting-georges-st-pierre-jon-fitch.php

Other UFC props in bet you can wager at 5 Dimes include the other two UFC main event fight for the Kenny Florian versus Roger Huerta and the Heath Herring and WWE star Brock Lesner fight. 

With the UFC event fast approaching the rest of the fighting betting odds have been released. One fight that stands out is the Dan Evensen versus Cheick Kongo fight. Evensen is a heavy handed fighter that has a good ground game and getting the underdog betting odds at +400 might be too hard to pass up. The staff at fighting-mma.com like this bet and getting it at +400 is a great bet to make. Lay some money on this fight for a great payout as Cheick Kongo is still a one dimensional fighter.

Another great underdog bet to make is Tamden Mccrory to beat Luke Cummo. We have no idea why Luke Cummo is the betting favorite. The only explanation we can figure out is that Cummo was on the reality show and he is getting favorable odds because he was on the TV show. Hat same explanation can be said for the Ryan Thomas and Ben Saunders fight as well. Because Ben Saunders was on the TUF show he is getting favorable betting lines. Though he should be a favorite in this fight getting Thomas at +240 is a steal.

WEC 35 will be on full display this weekend and BetCRIS has just put out the only betting lines for the event that will be held on August 3rd at the Hard Rock in Las Vegas.

One of the top welterweight fighters in the world will be fighting and if you don’t know Condit he is a force despite not much limelight. The fight of the night will be Brock Larson versus Carlo Prater. At 22-2-1 Larson is like Condit and one of MMA’s best kept secret but he will be fighting a tough Carlo Prater who is 23-5-1. The MMA betting odds have Larson as a huge betting favorite at +255 and if might be worth a wager for two similar fighters.

If there is an underdog bet to be made however, Marcus Hicks +135 is a good bet to make. Hicks is 8 and 0 in the and won his last 3 WEC fights. I really don’t know why Varner is a favorite in this fight. I would lay a large chunk on Hicks to win this fight.

The MMA betting lock of the night is the 5 and 1 Xtreme Couture fighter Dave Terrel taken on 2 and 2 fighter Blas Avena. At -165 this is the best WEC betting lock. Another great bet to make is to wager on Todd Moore -205. Though the gambling lines are not as good as the Dave Terrel fight he is well worth the investment on a fight he should easily win.

For all MMA betting lines check out the online betting BetCRIS odds below.

Hiromitsu Miura +425 
Carlos Condit -575 

Steve Cantwell +285 
Brian Stann -355 

Marcus Hicks +135 
Jaime Varner -165 

Damacio Page +190 
Brian Bowels -240 

Josh Grispi +145 
Micah Miller -175 

Carlo Prater +255 
Brock Larson -315 

Blas Avena +135 
Dave Terrel -165 

Shane Roller +165 
Todd Moore -205 

Greg Mcintyre +160 
Mike Budnik -200 

Scott Jorgensen +155 
Kenji Osawa -195

Thought UFC 88 Breakthrough won’t happen until September 6, 2008 at the Phillips Arena in Atlanta, Georgia that has not stopped the online sportsbooks oddsmakers from putting on the online UFC betting lines for this event.

The main event has Chuck the Ice Man Liddell and former UFC light  heavyweight champion taken on Rashad Evans, the winner of the heavyweight division of the Ultimate Fighter 2 reality show. Evans is coming in asa ahuge underdog even though he has wins over Hector Ramirez, Brad Imes, Sam Hoger, Stephan Bonnar, Jason Lambert, Sean Salmon, Michael Bisping and went to a draw against former light heavyweight champion Tito Ortiz.

Chuck Liddell is coming off the biggest win of his life at UFC 79: Nemesis over Wanderlei Silva but before hat he was on a 2 fight losing streak. Is the Iceman back? Well the online sportsbook say that he is.

5 Dimes is the only online sports betting site that has some early online betting odds and for the Liddell fight and the betting lines for the Rich Franklin versus Matt Hamill fight. Though most online sportsbooks have these betting lines, 5 Dimes is the only sportsbook that has put out UFC 88 prop bets.

Some interesting UFC prop bets include +458 if Liddell wins by decision. If you are going by the odds makers and think Liddell will win why not make a prop bet for the Iceman to go the distance?  Betting +458 instead of -265 is a better bet if you think Liddell will win the fight but will win by decision.

If you are a real gambler you might want to try betting the fight might go a draw. Laying $100 to win +7500 might be a streak but stranger things have happened. Evans has gone the distance 6 times out of 14 fights and drew once.

Below are the 5 Dimes online betting lines for UFC 88 Breakthrough

 
 

Chuck Liddell -265
Rashad Evans +225

UFC 88 Prop Bets

Liddell/Evans goes distance +210

Evans wins by 3 round decision +498 
Liddell/Evans draw +7500
Fight not a draw -20000

EliteXC is capitalizing on the rematch between The Hands of Steel Scott Smith 13-4 versus Robbie Lawler 15-4-1 and on July 26th, 2008 at EliteXC: Unfinished Business the rematch will take place at the Stockton Arena in Stockton California.

The first match between the two was a no contest for an Unintentional foul to a poke in the eye by Lawler on Smith. Both fighters will once again compete for the EliteXC middleweight championship. Like the first fight Robbie Lawler will be coming into the fight the favorite at -220 at Bookmaker.com. However the online MMA betting odds still have Smith as a huge underdog at +180.

Justin Eilers will try to become the EliteXC heavyweight champion as he will face Bigfoot Brasilero Antonio Silva who at 10 and 1 is a huge betting favorite at -550. The 6′4 265 pound heavyweight is very light on his feet and is very agile for a super heavyweight. He trains at American Top Team which means his overall MMA game will be tight.

The one underdog pick sports bettors might like to wager on will be the Brian Caraway versus Wilson Reis fight. Brian Caraway is going into the fight as the underdog +120 despite being 10 and 2 with 9 submissions. He will be fighting Wilson Reis who is 4 and 0 with 23 submissions. This will be a ground battle and Caraway’s experience should prevail despite being an underdog.

The fight of the night will be Nick Thompson versus Jake Shields. Thompson is the underdog despite being on a 12 fight winning streak. If you like to gamble this might be a great dog pick to make at +280. If will be tough as he will be fighting top ten welterweight Jake Shields who has wins over Hayato Sakurai, Akira Kikuchi, Dave Menne, Ido Pariente, Renato “Charuto” Verissimo, Mike Pyle Carlos Condit, Yushin Okami, and Jeremy Jackson. He is currently on a 9 fight winning streak, finishing his last 4 opponents in the first round.

Sheilds is a three time Grapplers Quest Advance Champion, Pan American Games Jiu Jitsu Champion, Pan Am Open Advance Submission Champion, Gracie Open Superfight Champion, and finished 3rd place at the ADCC Submission Wrestling World Championship in 2005. He also has a black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu by Cesar Gracie in February of 2007.

Most online sportsbook have betting odds for the next UFC 87 Seek and Destroy but not all sportsbook have online UFC betting props like 5 Dimes does.

The up coming UFC does have some interesting bets like MMA newcomers Brock Lesner coming into the fight as a huge favorite over mixed martial arts veteran Heath Herring. If you read the UFC handicapping betting report for this fight you might want to wager on Herring at +190.

One of the most interesting bets is the UFC prop bets is the Georges St Pierre versus Jon Fitch fight. The online props betting odds to go the distance is +400. GSP went the distance with Jon Fitch’s teammate Josh Koscheck at UFC 74: Respect. Fitch fights like Koscheck’s style and is much better so going the distance is a really good bet to make at +400. To coincide with that bet a great UFC prop would be GSP winning by decision.

If you bet on the fight going the distance why not bet on GSP to win the fight by going the distance.

If you bet $100 on the fight to go the distance at +400 and bet $100 on GSP winning the fight by 5 round decision at +601 that $200 you wagered on will net you $1001 plus your $200 back.

That’s a UFC prop betting I would make which is a better bet to make than placing a straight up bet on GSP at -310.

For all UFC prop bets check out the odds below.

Georges St-Pierre -310
Jon Fitch +255

St-Pierre/Fitch goes 5 round distance +400

Fight won’t go 5 round distance -550 

St-Pierre wins inside distance -202

St-Pierre wins by 5 rnd decision +601

Fitch wins inside distance +326 

Fitch wins by 5 rnd decision +1207 

St-Pierre/Fitch draw +7500

Fight not a draw -20000 

Rob Emerson +210 
Manny Gamburyan -270  

Jason MacDonald +190 
Demian Maia -270  Kenny Florian -155
Roger Huerta +125

Florian/Huerta goes 3 round distance +280 
Fight won’t go 3 round distance -400 

Heath Herring +190 
Brock Lesner -250

Herring/Lesnar goes 3 round distance +400
Fight won’t go 3 round distance -600

As the Affliction Banned fight gets closer. Online sportsbooks betting lines for the Heavyweight Championship bout between Fedor Emelianenko versus Tim Sylvia have drastically moved

The opening on line betting lines for the fight opened with Fedor as a -400 betting favorite as almost all the online sport betting sites.

However as the fight draws nearer there has been a lot of movement on the lines as a lot of money has been placed on Tim Sylvia which has pushed the online Affliction Banned betting lines down to -320 in favor of Fedor.

Every though many consider Fedor to be the top pound for pound fighter in the world people are hearing claims that Fedor is overrated like what Dana White stated when he says he has not fought any top level competition in over 2 years.

The Fedor backlash is now pushing the betting lines down as he opened as a huge favorite.

If you want to bet on Tim Sylvia 5 Dimes the online sportsbook now has the lines set at

Fedor Emelianenko -320

Tim Sylvia +260

This is the best online odds in a long time. If you want to bet on Fedor I would do so now as the lines might move higher up.

However if you think Sylvia will win you might want to wait to set if the Fedor supporters jump on this online bet

If you wanted to put on a mixed martial arts event to rival the new Affliction organization why would you put on a crappy card? Well thats what UFC president Dana White has done with a head line fight between Anderson Silva vs James Irvin.

Are you kidding me, come on Dana White you have the money and resources to do better than that but instead he tries to cheap out and put on a crappy MMA card. If you are going to put on a free show on Spike TV, do so with gusto not some lame attempt with a MMA card with a bunch of nobodies.

Dana White should really put a dagger in the hearts of the Affliction event by actually using some money to pay the fighters and get a good card together. He is cheaping out and putting Silva in with a punching dummy. The one fight to look forward to is the Frank Edgar versus Hermes Franca fight but that’s about it.

Affliction Banned has Fedor Emelianenko, two time UFC heavyweight champ Tim Sylvia, former UFC heavyweight champion Andrei Arlovski, Josh Barnett, Pedro Rizzo, Ben Rothwell, Matt Lindland Renato Sobral and Vitor Belfort.

This star studded line up has 4 top ten heavyweights in the world fighting and a number of high profile stars while the UFC is having Kevin Burns, Reese Andy, and Brodie Farber fighting so people will tune in. Also you can see all the under card fights for free for Affliction Banned at the Fight Network.

Dana White can fool novice fans and people who are mildly interested in MMA but he can not fool the real fans and hardcore MMA fans that put the UFC to where it is today.

If you really want to hurt Affliction do it right instead of being cheap and not paying for what people are worth. The UFC makes tons of money and they do not kick any of it back to the fighters and putting on a crappy show at UFC Fight Night 14 is a lame attempt to kill off competition with a pellet gun instead of a shotgun.

This all comes back to the UFC paying people for what they are worth and treating people fairly. If they did treat people fairly fighters like Josh Barnett, Matt Lindland, and Fedor would be happy to sign with the UFC. Instead they are rivaling the UFC and helping Dana off his high horse.

I really hope the UFC gets the fact that there is competition now. The last UFC cards were bad and the upcoming UFC 87 and 88 are not looking to great either. The UFC like to put 2 to 3 good fights and mix in with crappier fights with no real talent so they can cheat the pay per view audience and keep cost down. With cheaper talent instead of putting on a grat show form top to bottom like how Pride was.
