If I were a betting man... (UFC123 Lines)

If you had some money to play with, who would you bet on?

Main card:
Lyoto Machida (16-1) -280 vs. Quinton Jackson (30-8) +220
B.J. Penn (15-7-1) -170 vs. Matt Hughes (45-7) +150
Gerald Harris (17-2) -300 vs. Maiquel Falcao (25-3) +225
Phil Davis (7-0) -800 vs. Tim Boetsch (12-3) +500
George Sotiropoulos (13-2) -260 vs. Joe Lauzon (18-5) +200

On Spike:
Mark Munoz (8-2) -200 vs. Aaron Simpson (7-1) +140
Brian Foster (14-5) -160 vs. Matt Brown (11-9) +130

Preliminary card:
Karo Parisyan (19-5) -180 vs. Dennis Hallman (45-13-2) +150
Edson Barboza (6-0) -650 vs. Mike Lullo (8-2) +450
Paul Kelly (10-3) -180 vs. T.J. O'Brien (16-3) +150
Tyson Griffin (14-4) -210 vs. Nik Lentz (21-3-2) +170

So far I'm thinking:
-Rampage is a good bet because I see that fight going either way and he's a 2:1 dog.
-Hughes is a good bet because once again that could go either way and he's the dog.
-George is a virtual lock of course so -260 doesn't deter me there!
-Matt Brown possibly a good bet as an underdog?
-Karo over Hallman, even tho Karo is -180, he needs this win bad and I think he'll find a way to make it happen.
-Tyson Griffin for sure at -210, I just assume he's always going to grind out a win.

We're gonna see some black on jap crime

rampage and hughes are the only ones it bet on..im thinking penn is on his last leg with the ufc and needs this win to stay in.

tyson griffin is a sure thing in this fight. put your cash there. i like phil davis, too.

this is the first card in a long time where i don't have a strong feeling either way about the main or co-main. hughes/penn is a complete toss up if you ask me.

+1... its a tough call for both main and co-main.

I dont think BJ Penn will be cut if he loses.

I would like to see mix up his game a little more than has been doing recently.

My picks

Machida, Penn, George the Greek Aussie, Davis, Griffin, Kelly and Harris.

$500 locked in (not my money, i pick em for a buddy and get 10%).....

Karo Parisyan (19-5) -155
Matt Brown (11-9) +105
Quinton Jackson (30-8) +220
Matt Hughes (45-7) +135
Tyson Griffin (14-4) -200 (big $$ here!)
Mark Munoz (8-2) -180

I really wanted to go with George but the odds just aren't there... Lauzon is a wild man, too risky.

Tyson Griffin split decision loss... sooooo lame
