Ultimate Fight Night 12 Josh Burkman vs Mike Swick Fight Results
2008-01-27 00:41:00 So what did you think about Ultimate Fight Night 12 that recently aired on Spike TV? Some good fights right? The Mike Swick vs Josh Burkman fight wasn’t exciting, but Swick should be happy with his performance. I know that he looked a bit bummed after the fight. He’s use to having some insane victories, like the time he knocked out Gideon Ray, or the time he submitted Joe Riggs, or the beating he put on David Loiseau. However, although nothing exciting happened, Swick put up some great defense against a guy who’s known for big take downs / slams. Not being taken down once, that’s something to be proud of. So what was all of the booing for? Both fighters were swigging for the fences… simply nothing connected for a big KO. Although the Swick vs Burkman fight wasn’t that thrilling, The Patrick Cote vs Drew McFedries fight was exciting an a bit of an upset, Alvin Robinson vs Nate Diaz? Nate Diaz really surprised me, his ground game is...

Swick hopes to make ?Quick? work of Burkman
2008-01-23 04:15:00 Welterweights Mike Swick and Josh Burkman will be doing anything but lounging at The Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas on Wednesday night. The two headline UFC Fight Night 12 and look to make a definitive statement live on national television. When The Ultimate Fighter alumni enter the Octagon, can Swick?s fast hands and submission prowess translate to his new division after a long lay off? Or will Burkman?s wrestling-centric game put him out of commission?By Danny Acosta170lbs. is a new frontier for Mike Swick. The Texas-born fighter began his career at his natural weight of 185lbs. before moving to 205lbs to star in season one of The Ultimate Fighter. Time in the UFC allowed for the California-based fighter to return to his natural weight, but a hard fought decision loss against massive middleweight Yushin Okami forced ?Quick? to buy sauna gear and enter the fray of the UFC?s most challenger-laden division.The drop to welterweight is not of Gleison Tibau proportions. It allows Swic...

UFC 71 Betting Odds
2007-05-21 17:46:00 Chuck Liddell (-180) vs Quinton Jackson (+175) - With endless training videos, interviews, and commentaries the betting line for Chuck Liddell and Quinton Jackson is finally tightening up. If you were looking to follow Randy Couture's advice and bet on Jackson the best odds are behind you now (but still worth it down to +170). But, if you think the Ice Man is taking this one home you should be able to get a piece of him for around -200 and maybe even -175 by Friday or early Saturday, with four solid books to chose from you should be able to play either side of this one comfortably. Myself, I already dropped my dienero when Jackson was +200.Karo Parisyan (-300) vs Josh Burkman (+260) - The betting public is still in love with Karo and money continues to come in behind him. The line on this fight should be much closer (-115/+135). My prediction for the fight is decsion for Burkman and a hell of a fight. With the current moneyline, the only value I see is a bet on Josh Burkman at +175...
