Although I would be shocked if Heath won, I can't understand why they made him the underdog? Silly odds makers that would have been an easy buck!

I can't understand this line. I'll be curious to see how this moves over time...

While I understand Lesnar being somewhat of a favorite because of his strength and the fact that he showed some good skills against Mir, Herring is no slouch. He has been in fights with the best of them and knows his way around the cage.

I think Lesnar will be the betting favorite... but I do find it hard to believe that Lesnar is actually picked to win. HH is no slouch and he is big too (6'4 260 accoring to wiki vs. Lesnar at 6'3 265 basically same size although Lesnar obviously looks much more muscular)... he has fought some of the best in the world, including NCAA champ wrestler Mark Kerr during his reign. Mix in all of the experience that HH has and he has more ways to win in my opinion... even from the bottom.
I think this is a terrible fight for Lesnar again - why dont they give him someoen like a Brad Imes or Jake O'Brien to get some experience against? I think they must really be trying to fast-track him to a HW title shot. I wouldnt be surprised if he won this if they didnt immediately give him a title shot.. =-/
Herring sucks. He has not shown any ground game since moving to the UFC. He got laid on couldnt do a thing against his first opponent in the UFC and Congo actually did pretty good against him on the ground and he sucks on the ground. I think Lesnar will be to strong for herring to handle on the ground. Herring is better at the stand up game and got Nog down but had a huge brain fart and didnt do anything. Lesnar went nuts on Mir and I see him doing the same to Herring. Herring doesn't really suck but I don't like his fights. I dont like Lesnar to much either but in this match I hope he KO's Herring. For some reason I just don't like him.

Woah Cindy what's with the hostility? Did Herring get a Canadian girl pregnant and leave the country never to be heard from again? Wow, I have never seen you spew such hatred towards a fighter!!!!

I hated on Marvin today...hated on hughes before. I dont know...just dont like herring. His game is stand up and he complains when he gets taken down. Well work on your damn take down defense. I dont see any improvement from him fight to fight and his fights are boring. Everyone is saying he is great and I dont think he is. Maybe I dont like you calling me Cindy all the time either!
And why would I care if he got a woman up here pregnant? We're not all related in Canada like they are in Long Island.
