MMA Professor - UFC 126 Picks
Ok, UFC 126 is a really stacked card, so you don't want to miss this one. It is the UFC's Superbowl eve card and they like to showcase top talent, and this year is no different. Here are the Picks:
- Paul Taylor (-190) over Gabe Ruediger - Ruediger might be the worst fighter in the UFC
- Mighty Mouse Johson (+105) over Norifumi "Kid" Yammamoto - The talent level in Japan has proven to be far inferior to that of the UFC and Kid might be in for a wakeup call in his UFC debut. He is on the other side of his prime too.
- Jake Ellenberger (-240) over Carlos Rocha - Wrestling matches up really well with Jiu Jitsu
- Vitor Belfort (+250) over Anderson Silva to become the new UFC Middleweight Champion - Belfort has far faster hands - you heard it here first.

MR EAST
3 UNITS: DALLAS MAVERICKS -2
The Dallas Mavericks really struggled when Dirk Nowitski went down with an injury. The Mavericks played 9 games without Nowitski and promptly dropped 7 of them, so you can see what he means to this team. Going into the game against Boston last night the Mavs have won 6 straight times. The Bobcats are coming off a successful road trip where they won 4 of 6 games, but 5 of those games were vs losing teams. Their last 6 at home vs winning teams show them losing 5 of them and the 1-5 straight up mark shows they lost by a total of 81 points to these teams. They now stand at 0-7-2 ATS in their last 9 at home vs a winning team. I'll go with Dallas in tis one.
