Arlovski over Werdum when Werdum has already beat Overeem and Fedor

Werdum should be the biggest dog in the tournament next to Rogers IMO

The odds are based on who he would have to beat. He has wins over the entire side of the bracket he is on but he'd be even with Silva in a rematch and dogs to both Fedor and Overeem. Anyone in his shoes would have that kind of odds anyway. Laying a bill on him would be worth it either way though.

Those odds seem strangely top heavy? J/K I still can't believe AA is getting that kinda cred though...

Based on the bracket he is running not so much. Though Sergei is being undervalued big time here.

Werdum is looking like the dog too take, even if he is in the stacked bracket

Eh, I would need better odds than that. If things play out like they should (which is unlikely) I would take Overeem, Fedor, and Barnett over him without even thinking. He's going to get fucking crumbled in the first round. I'd put money on him not making it through 1 full round of this tourney before I put money on him winning it

I'm putting a bill on SDR

I would put a Bill on Grim!

I think it is weird that AA isn't favored to beat Sergei but he has such high odds on winning it all?

Sergei Kharitonov (17-4) -120
Andrei "Pitbull" Arlovski (15-8.) +105

Thats odd, but looking over the tourney as a whole, most likely means the odds makers feel AA would have a better chance at beating the other possible fighters.

Yeah I know I just thought it was a bit strange.

Really he is a long shot also at +900 though. Overeem and Fedor are pretty much the guys to watch in this tourney as far as Vegas goes.
