Yes officer, my name is Victoria Sonnen...berg

I actually put a separate :10bux: on Vinny, because this is my feeling too.

But some questions on this. Is Vinny's BJJ really as amazing as I'm thinking it is? And if this fight stays standing, do either of them seem to have a significant advantage? I won some money off Maia in the Fitch fight because I figured that would become a grappling match and Maia would have the advantage there, and I'm thinking this fight may go the same route.

It's pretty high-level.

I don't think so. They're both pretty averse to being hit and neither of them is that great at striking.

It's just so hard to get that image of him being crumpled by Bader out of my head. I know it's been some time, and he's gotten bigger and better, and Bader punches hard, but I can't get it out of my head. I just constantly expect him to dive at the floor at the first sign of being punched in the face.

Fortunately, he's fighting Phil Davis, so the first sign of being punched in the face will come about midway through round 3.

Is Vinny good enough to take Davis down? Because otherwise it will probably be a lovely kickboxing match with Davis taking him down at the very end of each round to secure the judges points.

I disagree. Consider the kind of person who bets on MMA.

Does this person seem like the kind of person who is likely to make correct choices?

I know James Te Huna looked okay after that first round with Ryan Jimmo, and Glover Teixeira hasn't looked good since that first round with Fabio Maldonado, but a stoppage by Te Huna is a wild bet.

I like Glover and think he's a good fighter but I don't get the whole "future of the LHW division" tag that's been applied to him. What is the general opinion of him? I think Te Huna is a dangerous but unpolished fighter, and I can imagine him catching Glover out.

I've read it on a couple of different MMA sites, plus Goldie/Rogan talking him up. I just can't see him as being the Jones dethroner some people seem to believe he is.

I think it's a fair assumption someone's getting knocked out. Come to think of it, Teixeira by submission isn't out of the question either. I can see Te Huna getting rocked and then choked out by Teixeira who isn't adverse to shooting a lovely take down.

Last week I picked 2/3 fights on a parlay got hosed by Vitor's head kick.
