    Talk about not getting any respect. Big Foot is a 2.9-1 too against Travis "Very ordinary big guy" Browne. I think both of these fights are worth betting on.

    Struve for sure. Browne ain't beating Bigfoot though. The odds for Stuve are way out of whack.

    Your post is kind of funny. You call Browne very ordinary and are shocked to see Struve as an underdog. But Brown knocked Struve out. So essentially, Struve was beaten by an ordinary fighter, which means a guy like Miocic, who MIGHT be better than ordinary, should probably be favored.

    All that said, I'll be picking Struve and Browne. Big Foot is a clumsy oaf. And I think Browne is a relatively well-rounded guy.

    I like Struve in this. Yeah the odds are way off. But Bigfoot as clumsy as he may be, hes experienced and a tough out for anyone. I like Bigfoot over Browne

    Browne beats Bigfoot, Struve can win by submission but his chin has problems and Miocic will test it.

    Haven't heard anyone talk about Hardy/Sadollah. I think this has Fight of the Night potential. I am more jacked for this fight than any other on the card.

    It's got some potential for a good brawl. I'm hard pressed to pick this one, Hardy was on a bad losing streak until his latest win but Sadollah still lacks a lot of experience to me. Ever since the show, he just gives me the impression that he doesn't have a lot of physical talent, he's got heart and he seems pretty intelligent but that's just not enough to make it to the top and I'm not sure if he'll be ready for a seasoned fighter like Hardy. I believe this fight will be close, but I think Hardy may walk away with the win here.

    Too bad I didn't bet on Struve. But to be honest if somebody told me the fight would end on the feet with a KO I would surely assume Struve would lose and stay away from betting. Good for Struve. I like the guy and he's 9-3 in the UFC which is pretty awesome.

    There you go . I predict two underdogs to win and they win but as my luck goes I don't bet on them. Great job BOSS! Really good!
