    UFC 180: Hunt vs Werdum Picks and Predictions!!!

    UFC 180, November 15th, Mexico City, Mexico

    Fight Card
    ------------------------------------------------------------
    Mark Hunt vs. Fabricio Werdum
    Jake Ellenberger vs. Kelvin Gastelum
    Dennis Bermudez vs. Ricardo Lamas
    Chris Heatherly vs. Augusto Montano
    Edgar Garcia vs. Hector Urbina
    Leonardo Morales vs. Yair Rodriguez
    Alejandro Perez vs. Jose Quinonez
    Jessica Eye vs. Leslie Smith
    Gabriel Benitez vs. Humberto Brown
    Henry Briones vs. Guido Cannetti
    Marco Beltran vs. Marlon Vera
    Masio Fullen vs. Alexander Torres
    Fredy Serrano vs. Bentley Syler


    I love Mark Hunt, and obviously we can see how he does vs strikers, but I think this is Werdum's fight to lose. Hunt can get caught by submission. Werdum's striking has been on display since the Fedor fight and he's really impressive. If you watch the UFC embedded videos, it looks like Werdum is in great shape. I like Hunt, and hope he wins, but I only see one way to win... Ellenberger's fallen off the face of the 170 title race, but this is a great fight for Kelvin Gastelum! Kelvin does what he needs to, to win, has good striking, great wrestling, but same can be said for Jake. He's over with Edmund Tarvarian (sp?) now, and should see his striking improve. Bermudez/Lamas should be another ultra-competitive fight that pits two athletes versus each other and I'm excited to see how this one plays out. I believe Bermudez takes it here with his constant pressure and now allowing Lamas to stay at range.

    Dennis Bermudez -180 over Ricardo Lamas for one unit
    Jose Quinonez -240 over Alejandro Perez for two units

    Probably some more plays tonight.

      Ugly two-point intentional headbutt by Quinonez spoiled a potential split-decision victory - but would have been close. Adding another three units on bermudez -175

      Good luck guys!
