Babalu is no joke, but hes also not much of a striker. What I was getting at is that Liddell has fought a lot of grapplers/wrestlers and comparatively few good strikers. And when he does fight good strikers, he tends to have a tougher time.

Even though I like Chuck to win this fight, I agree that the initial line on Rampage was out of proportion to the actual likelihood of him winning/losing the fight and therefore it would be reasonable to put some $$ on him.

But that's why I no longer bet on sporting events, including MMA....I want Chuck to win this fight, and if I bet on Rampage, I'd have a conflict of interest; no matter who won I'd be disappointed.

On the other hand let's say I wanted Rampage to win and bet him; if he then lost, then I would have lost $$ and my guy would have lost so I'd be really pissed.

For that reason I found it was better for my enjoyment of the sport to just hold off betting and watch and enjoy
