We Cash again! Top Plays/Parlays profit 1.5 Stars (Units) FAPs 4-1

UFC on FX 8 Top Plays, Top Parlays, FAPs and Predictions

Luke Rockhold (-130) vs. Vitor Belfort (+110) 5 Rds.
Rockhold is the former Strikeforce MW Champion and is super well rounded and athletic.  Vitor Belfort is an explosive striker with solid BJJ.  I agree with Vegas and the line on this on.  I feel this is nearly a coinflip.  Vitor could win this early by TKO/KO or if this goes to the later rounds I see Rockhold being able to wear Vitor down and win the decision.  Vitor’s cardio is the question mark here but many of times he doesn’t need cardio as he finishes fights in the first or 2nd round.  This is a hard one to play so we have no top play on this but have FAPs on this.

Top Play:  No top Play on Main Event
Main Event Forced Action Play: You might want to play a small hedge on prop bets Rockhold by Decision (+300) and Vitor by TKO/KO +175.

Top Plays:
2 Star Prop bet Dos Anjos vs Dunham goes the distance (-195)- This is going to be a very competitive fight with two solid grapplers. Dos Anjos does have some power in his hands but he shouldn’t land clean enough to finish Dunham.  I see this fight going to a very close decision.  You might have to take the over 2.5 if you don’t have prop plays, but I recommend the value on this fight going the distance.
½ Star Hacran Dias (+110)- Dias is a very strong grappler with strong wrestling.  His opponent Nik Lentz is also a great wrestler and strong grappler.  I see this being a close fight but there is value on Dias and plus if it goes to the judges the Brazilian judges should give him the nod.
½ Star Jussier Da Silva “Formiga” Prop bet by Submission (+300)- This play has value written all over it.  Jussier has a wonderful submission game and he knows he could struggle with Cariaso in the standup so he should look to get this to the ground.  Cariaso also was subbed in his last fight by a grappler not as elite as Jussier.

UFC 159 Top Play, Parlay and Predictions


Jon Jones (-970) vs. Chael Sonnen (+635) 5 Rds Light Heavyweight Title
Jon Jones is the best fighter in LHW division and one of the top fighters walking the planet today.  Chael has very good wrestling above average standup and an aggressive gameplan.  Jon Jones will be able to stay on the outside and pick apart Sonnen.  If Sonnen rushes in recklessly he could eat big shots potentially getting TKOed or possibly Subbed.  I could see Jon Jones hurting Chael and going for a submission.  Chael can only win this fight if he somehow takes Jones down and possibly TKOs or Subs him.  I just don’t see Chael winning this by decision unless somehow he gets takedown after takedown each round. But Jon Jones has never been takedown so it will be interesting to see how Jones fights off his back. The way Chael fights so aggressively could be his greatest asset or greatest downfall.  Will Chael slow up his fighting style because he knows Jones is a great counter fighter with dangerous strikes?  I see Jon Jones hurting Chael sometime in the 2nd or 3rd Rd and locking in a submission.

Top Play:  No top Play on Main Event but for a Forced Action Play you may want to put a small play on Jon Jones by Submission +105 or Jon Jones by TKO +150

Top Play:
1 Star Michael Bisping (-170)- Bisping is very well rounded and will mix it up with striking and takedowns to win the decision.
