I'm pretty confused as to why Miller is more than a 2-1 favorite. I don't see this fight going in his favor personally.
Because Nate has had problems with grinders like him in the past(Guida, Stevenson). IMO Nate is superior on the feet and on the ground, Miller will need to win in the clinch and stay attached to him to win.

Benson is a bad matchup for everybody, but Diaz in particular. Very fast and powerful wrestler with tremendous sub defense.

Bendo would be a very tough match up for Nate, I agree.

MMA is still young enough that once in a while the major sportsbooks still really screw up a line. This was one of those times. Diaz being a 2-1 dog was absolutely laughable.

Nate Diaz is for real, the first person to ever stop Jim Miller. He has improved so much in the clinch and hurt Miller there repeatedly with knees, elbows, uppercuts. His TDD has improved tremendously as well. I think he can beat Bendo or Frankie, although they would both be tough fights.

haha yeah, only during the fight though, they are always classy to their opponents afterwards. Just their way of getting pumped for the fight to go to war and beat their opponent.

I thought hendricks won 29-28. He won 4 mins of the 5th, that take down at the end was meaningless. I wasn't surprised it was split though.

edit: phone auto correct.

After Hendricks recovered from the poke that Koscheck does to everyone he dominated him with the left.

Kos seems to forget he has a left hand, all he throws is that over hand right trying to knock people out. He has become overly reliant on it.

I had Kos winning the 1st and 3rd round. So, 29-28 Kos.

Diaz will be next the LW champ w/o a doubt.
