not much time, hopefully i can get back later. i have looked at this card pretty close.

live dogs

galvao
hicks
cardella
garcia

i bet brown, osawa, pierce and cardella. i think brown handles garcia, but i completely understand playing garcia too.

this show is on Versus tonite. DON'T miss it!!! McCullough vs Hicks should be great. hell, all these fights are damn good. WEC is never boring.

Avarice · Mar 1, 2009

Garcia +165
Hicks +125

I'll be happy with the split but think both dogs have a legit shot. Good luck.

i think both guys will have their chances. i have a suspicion razor rob could be shot. hicks will find out.

mcdrewcarey187 · Mar 1, 2009

I took karalexis to win 1 unit and garcia bet 1 unit

mogo · Mar 1, 2009

:box:

Avarice · Mar 1, 2009

I put a little more on Hicks.

mogo - doing an in-fight here?

Avarice · Mar 1, 2009

Boring first round. About even with a slight edge to Hicks maybe for landing a couple of those lefts.

Avarice · Mar 1, 2009

Hicks with an early chance but couldn't hold the guillotine. McCullough really turned it on after that.

Hicks looks done.

Avarice · Mar 1, 2009

That fight was awful. Gotta give it to McCullough.

mogo · Mar 1, 2009

hicks never really engaged except for that one shot and the guillotine attempt....

VERY weak fight!
