Okay, so obviously Kid is the favorite here. No argument. But his last four fights are 3 decision losses, and 1 first round TKO on Frederico Lopez. He is clearly past his prime. The first betting line I looked up was -450/+325. If I had some extra cash lying around, I think I'd have to put it on Darren. Your thoughts?

You know this is an interesting line. Kid's last few losses have been against very solid wrestlers. Darren has great jits but he doesn't have the takedowns Joe warren or Demetrius Johnson have.
Plus kid's back is up against the wall. So I can understand the big spread.

The best thing during the fight was Joe Rogan saying "That position is called Crackhead Control .. unfortunately"

You have to think Rogan just wanted to cover his ass, using a name like Crackhead Control on the first UFC on FOX. We understand why the names are the way they are, but to the uninitiated, it could seem like another example of uneducated, lower-class attitudes in MMA. Not saying I agree, just that this is how uneducated MMA viewers often think.
Also, not to toot my own horn, but I called that one. I rang a friend and told him to put a bunch of $$ on it, but he said I was crazy. CRAZY BRILLIANT!
