I got offered a $100 bet against Silva(meaning I bet on Vitor) last night while watching the Royal Rumble with my cousin and her boyfriend. I was like 2 seconds away from shaking on it but decided against it at the last minute. lol

I wouldn't bet $100. MAYBE $30.

That was my thing. I was willing to do $50 even, but the guy was intent on $100, and I just couldn't risk that kind of $$$.

If you're going to bet on Vitor, go to a legitimate sportsbook and place your bet.
Giving even money to someone on an underdog is bad betting.
If you bet $50 on Vitor right now, you should be getting about $100 from the house if Vitor wins.

Just a friendly bet. I wouldn't bet on MMA anyway, because anything can happen.

I'm far too broke to gamble, but since I'm a big dink and all around drunken derelict, I'm betting full beer chugs with the pals this weekend. I'm feeling lively, so I've placed a 3 beer bet on Vitor winning.

I was thinking of betting on the fight but I believe I'll just jinx Silva and he will lose by brutal KO within the first minute...

Things just got a little more interesting.

I've got the largest bet I've ever made, $500 on Vitor, but given 4-1 odds by my friend, so if Vitor pulls it off, I land a cool $2000. I took the chance on this one.

Forrest Griffin and Rich Franklin have their own bet going on. What is it? Loser has to get a tattoo of the winners choosing!!! They could do some seriously bad stuff with that bet.. |

I have a swallow (the bird) on my arm from such a bet. So they don't all end bad.

Okay this sounds like an excellent match card. Here are my predictions.
Anderson Silva (c) defeats Victor Belfort
Forrest Griffin defeats Rich Franklin
Carlos Rocha defeats Jake Ellenburg
Jon Jones defeats Ryan Bader
Antonio Banuelos defeats Miguel Torres
Paul Kelly defeats Donald Cerrone
Chad Mendes defeats Michihiro Omigawa
Gabe Ruediger defeats Paul Taylor
Demetrious Johnson defeats Norifumi "Kid" Yamamoto
Kyle Kingsbury defeats Ricardo Romero
Mike Pierce defeats Kenny Robertson
Now, the reason I say and hope that Anderson Silva doesn't slack like last time is because I am sure he can be Victor Belfort and I just know it. Anderson will win most likely by TKO in the Second or Third Round. Hopefully Anderson Silva will win to go on and possibly fight Georges St. Pierre. If Georges St. Pierre wins against former EliteXC Fighter Jake Shields then he will advance to face Anderson Silva for the UFC Middleweight Championship and vacate the UFC Welterweight Championship and Georges St. Pierre will stay a Middleweight Fighter. Hopefully they both win their next fights. I will say I would watch the huge fight between Georges St. Pierre and Anderson Silva. They could use the tagline for the match as "What the world has been waiting for!" I can only imagine seeing two of the best pound for pound fighters in the world going at it in the Octagon. It would definitely be the best fight to date and could possibly surpass the amount of buy rates for "UFC 66: Liddell vs Ortiz II" which would be amazing. I hope to one day see something along the lines of this "UFC 138: Silva vs St. Pierre" I can only hope for this fight.

KID always has some pretty swank fight shorts. I'm seriously hoping he has a good debut for the company.
