Odds when 2 fighters are favourites?
This is one of my newb threads but I am a bit confused by the following:
Right now on Bestfightodds.com the best odds for the Benavidez v Borg fight are :
Benavidez -102 Borg -106

Does this mean that the market sees this fight as more or less 50/50, and the reason why none of the fighter lands in positive territory is because of the bookey's cuts?
How Was Conor Able To Get A Fight W Mayweather While Other UFC Fighters Can't
How the hell was this dude able to get a fight with Mayweather and we have a current bigger star unable to get that fight?

P4P Top 3 Worst fighters in UFC

Sherdog Forums | UFC, MMA & Boxing Discussion
P4P Top 3 Worst fighters in UFC
1) Mike Jackson (If he even gets another fight in UFC)
2) Lando Vanatta
3) Artem Lobov

I think these are probably the only fighters I would pick BJ Penn to beat, at this point in his career.

What is your Top 3 P4P worst fighter list in UFC?

Jacare has vindicated all old brazilian fighters

Jacare has vindicated all old brazilian fighters
That's what Weidman gets for building his legacy on past prime brazilians, and it's great that it had to be another black, bald brazilian wearing yellow shorts to make it come full circle. So much heart on this guy, he's a legend.


Silva: 38 years old
Machida: 36 years old
Vitor: 38 years old and off the TRT

Jacare, 38 years old, said enough is enough.

Talk like a MMA fighter and guess who Sherdoggers are

Talk like a MMA fighter and guess who Sherdoggers are
For this game you speak as if you are a MMA fighter and everyone has to guess who you are.

You can't break character or move on until someone guesses it. You can guess others while playing in character and post however many times you want.

This could be fun cause every user can be someone and there can be multiple games going at once!! Or even multiple people portraying the same character :eek:

After your figured out feel free to start a new character - but when someone guesses you right...

Cris Cyborg vs. Amanda Nunes and women's MMA is bad for the sport
One of them is somebody who has a record of illegal substance use and the president of the company had stated she will never compete in the UFC.
Also the competition level and athleticism of the women is very far behind the men and that makes for mismatches.

It's also barbaric to pit women against each other.



Why do social justice warriors and extreme left wing ideologists always push their ideas onto us and take away our freedom of speech? Look at how...

Sherdogs Russian shoe shiners VS MMA reality

Sherdogs Russian shoe shiners VS MMA reality
I have been watching MMA for a very long time. All the way back to PRIDE, I even went cold-turkey on the UFC(couldn't stand their promo) and just watched PRIDE.

I watched Fedor in PRIDE. I was a fan. I thought of Dana as an angry man when he talked about Fedor like he wasn't great.

Slowly over the years, still before the UFC bought PRIDE, I started to question the reasons behind Fedors decision not to fight in the UFC. Before Dana White made a smiley face on Twitter when Werdum beat...

is there a GOAT of Sherdog?
If so, who is it

other than me ofc
Most intelligent fighters (Daniel Cormier, Chael Sonnen, Ben Askren, etc.)
Remember Ben Askren on Joe Rogan's show? The guy talked about so many topics in so much detail. I was surprised at how much he knew about politics and other countries.

Daniel Cormier - No explanation needed.

Chael Sonnen - Even if you hate the guy, you have to admit he is one of the most eloquent speakers in MMA. He was able to trash talk without ever swearing. Listening to him talk is refreshing when he is not in character. I actually learn interesting things about wrestling that...
