If I parlay 10 dollars that Manny Gamb, Stun Gun and Jon Jones all win their fights I win 150 dollars.

Am I crazy not to do it?

Is there even a good chance all these guys come through?

let me know! haha.

There is a chance but I think out of those three most likely one will lose and it will prob be Jon Jones.

See on one hand Jones is young and totally untested or unexperienced. On the other he's totally unpredictable, will be hard to deal with and has 3 rounds to hopefully catch Stephan with some rediculous punch or kick.

Stun Gun could gas out against Karo, but so could Karo. Karo's biggest asset will be his Judo but Stun Gun could be able to totally shut down that aspect of Karo's game or atleast give Karo hell for attempting to get a throw. Stun Gun's got subs, polished stand up and vicious hellbows.

The tough part is we have no idea what Bonnar or Karo will show up.

I think Bonnar will be able to use his ground game to finish Jones and I only see Jones being able to win by cut or if Bonnar does not show up in good shape a decision.

I picked Stun Gun to win by UD but I wouldn't put money on him. Karo as bad as he has looked lately has still only lost to Sherk, GSP, Alves, and a close one to Sanchez.

For $10, why the hell not.

It's MMA. There's always a chance.

The other thing is Jones is supposed to have really good takedown defense.

I dunno, this show is a tough one all around. (except the Machida fight)

I think you may be getting Yoshida and Stun Gun confused.

IIRC Stun Gun has a judo background too just not at the level of Yoshida.

Stun Gun is probably gonna get worked, hard.

There's a good chance Manny might win.

I don't know enough about Jones to objectively dissect the fight.

For $10 though, what do you have to lose?

He'd lose approximately $10 ;)

My parlay is on GSP, Manny, and Nate.

I definitely wouldn't bet against Bonnar who has really only lost to top-notch guys. Same thing for Karo.

A GSP, Manny, Nate parlay also sounds nice.

Any parlay for this show I feel can easily add the Fitch and Machida fights as well because those are basically a "sure thing" *knock on wood*.

and with fitch at -600 odds, the only way you can really bet on him in hopes of making more than a couple bucks is through a parlay

For the bet to be worth it, if you were able to execute it 15 times you'd have to win more than once. Once would be break even.

Is there a good chance all these guys come through? No. There's not a very good chance that every single one comes through. But if you're pretty confident with the three, go with a round robin or something so you can just have multiple 2 team parlays. Then if 2 win and 1 lose you can still make money, just not at the same extreme odds.

You don't see the word "parley" used this much, ever!

Is there any Canadians that lay down wagers online? What site do you use? I'm not able to sign up for BetUS because I have a Canadian IP.

Pinnacle Sports is a good site for Canadians.
