I kinda like Magalhaes, but would have to lay heavy chalk. I will take Aldo inside the distance -268 (5d) to win 1 unit. KZ always comes forward, it's a 5 rounder, and Aldo is fighting in front of the home country crowd. If you think he'll win (currently -800 or something), it's a good bet he'll win inside the distance.

A weak way to win, but a win nonetheless.

Overeem -165 (5d) to win 2 units

I really like this one.

OK, I've learned my lesson with Overeem.

Ben Henderson -120 (5dimes) to win 1 unit. Good price for the champ. He's developed a lot since the last these 2 fought and he'll be the bigger fighter in the cage.

I've hit a rough patch here.

A. Silva -160 (5d) to win 2 units.

Silva has come all the way down to -160? Give me some. I'm in the minority, but I haven't seen much to be impressed by from Weidman. He looked completely lost at times in the standup last fight, and wasn't imposing his will in taking the fight to the ground as much as people thought he might. If he doesn't do that for 5 rounds, I think he'll get blasted. My only concern is Anderson's age, but for -160 I'll take that chance.

Phil Davis -230 (5d) to win 1 unit. I don't get the Rumble love - this seems like a pretty clear mismatch.

Awful.
