Bendo looked absolutely horrible, but he always does at the weigh ins. Again I dont think its an issue of Nate having problems meeting weight, its a title fight, you are not allowed the one pound window, he was clearly unaware.

#107If he was clearly unaware... Than he's a dumb fuk. Fuk him.Comment -
#108Benson Henderson has one of the hardest weight cuts in all of MMA, and looked absolutely disgusting.
Diaz didn't have nearly as much trouble making weight, he just misunderstood the rules. He had no idea he couldn't be one pound over.
I'm big on Benson too, but let's be legit here.Comment -
#109The point doesn't pertain to his intelligence, though; it pertains to whether or not the cut was so difficult that he missed weight despite his best efforts, as this is what is relevant on fight night. It's quite obvious that he did not.Comment -
#110For those that are interested, the last 5 unit max wager that lost was against Diaz this time of year last year. Cowboy Cerone had about the worst gameplan I have ever witnessed. Which surprised me greatly with his camp.
I think Diaz can be overwhelmed if taken down. I don't see Bendo standing in front of Diaz. I think Diaz will get frustrated with the power kicks from Henderson which will open up very easy takedowns for Bendo. I don't see Bendo getting subbed either. Henderson's transitioning is some of the best in that division imo.
Cash your wagers boys!!Comment -
#111Yeah that is pretty odd isn't it. It was clear that after Nate weighed in @ 155.6 and was approached by Dana about it he was surprised there was no one pound over limit because of the title fight. For the Gracie camp to not be aware of such a thing is pretty bad. You'd think Nick would be aware of this because he was a champion in Strikeforce which i assume has the same setup. I'd think the commission regulates the weigh in protocol and not the promotion so no reason to think otherwise. For a fighter/camp to be so irresponsible in the title fight to me says a lot.Comment -

Glad my money is on the guy rehydrating while this fuk stick is trying to make weight.Comment -
#113all bigday does is kill animals and gamble

GL with your wager. Gracie "camp" just lost ALL of what little respect I had for them. They don't even know what the fukkin weights are.Comment -
#115Sorry. I'm fired up.
I love all.Comment -
#116A fired up bigdayComment -
#117Vegas, I don't get fired up often...Comment -
#118Daimo will love you more nowComment -
#119He did, but it's unlikely that he would have had any issues with his cut had he known about the rule (although it's clearly ridiculous that he did not). Unfortunate for Nate, good for us, although Ben's weight cuts are getting scary.Comment -
#120One day Daimo and I'll meet. He doesn't know it yet..
I have a lot of experimental Wrastling moves id like to try on him.Comment -

#123Bendo looks scary when he cuts weight, but he knows what he is doing, the guys clearly in touch with his body because he has never once looked out of it on fight night.
Looking forward to cashing my five unit on him, its gonna be a wicked night folks.Comment -
#124Not even after he gassed for two rounds, stopped sweating, collapsed, and had to be taken to three different emergency rooms, where he was rehydrated intravenously a total of four times? Yeah, he's got this shit down.Comment -
#125Hey, nobody said being in touch with ones body is the same for everyone...He is champion though so eh.Comment -
#126Doesn't really have much to do with your post (really only relates to the "he is champion" bit, which made me think about this), but has there been a less impressive champion with a title defence in recent memory than Benson Henderson? There probably isn't a top 10 fighter in the world that he'd open at -200 or more against (excluding those he's beaten already), has almost no finishing ability, and so many holes in his game that it's ridiculous. The obvious argument is that, hey, he keeps winning, but I'm pretty sure even Urijah Faber could have won a title fight against Edgar with those judges. I'm huge on him in this fight, but Christ, he's a shitty champ.Comment -

#129Anyone got early lines for Nelson v mitrione card?
Ricci is gonna dominate smithComment -
#130Sorry MD I dont mean to sound like an idiot, but when did that happen??Comment -
#131Didnt this happen in WEC though a while ago? Cerrone five rounder I believe? He's probably worked on his cutting and rehydration techniques since then (and I think it's shown in most of his fights)Comment -
#132Morning run with a toothpick in my mouthComment -

#134Fair enough, we're talking early 2010. That being said, its safe to hypothesize at the very least that given his performance and cardio in every fight he has had since that point, he has worked on his weight cutting. I've never seen any sign of him even close to gassing since.Comment -

#136An yeah I do an records are overrated in mma capping wise..the lines of -400 or more no shit they win more then lose! Donald C is a legit stand up fighter an Diaz made him look foolish he used his reach to take away the crazy kicks an elbows Diaz will do the same to him an he won't take Diaz to the ground dude please u lost respect for the Gracie camp ur outta ur mind dude! Diaz will put him to sleep if he doesn't tap if this goes to the ground congrats with ur record dude an betting huge favs but ur losses have cost u big units cause you lay so much to win a little amount an ill take Diaz at +130 an BJ at +275 with his experience I look for value instead of laying 700 to win 100 like you doLast edited by RG3ING; 12-08-12, 02:06 PM.Comment -
#137this RG quickly becoming biggest joke on hereComment -
#138Hey do you think BJ at +275 isn't good value?? An how do you think Diaz won't submit if it goes to the ground??how an I a joke! Ur a clown Vegas go suck a fat babies dick up til ya hick upComment -
