It's an animated .gif. There are several ways to do it. There is probably a program that can take a video clip and converts it to an animated .gif (I know there is mplayer can do it under Linux and since mplayer is also available for Windows, I would imagine it can do it under Windows too), also you can create it yourself by going frame by frame in an image editing program(gimp for me, probably photoshop for you... I'm assuming you're on Windows).

Also, when did the odds change? I voted on Sokoudjou a LONG time ago and it was 2/1, 1/1 and more recently and it was still 2/1, 1/1.

I saw that bout and it's not as if he beat Lil Nog to the punch/kick all night long, that would be impressive. I just thought that people had more to go on before jumping on his band wagon. I just watched Teixeira KO Sokoudjou on youtube, he didn't look so good. His kicks were there, but they weren't that effective. Is there more to go on then the classic 'flash in the pan' that we saw against Lil Nog?

I agree, but what is life without taking some chances? I don't like going the "safe route" every time. That's why I'm jumping on his bandwagon before we know for sure (actually I hopped on a LONG time ago). If he loses I will have egg on my face(not to mention an Arona avatar and a new sig.). If he wins I'll look like a champion.

Fair enough. But I've only made one bet and I lost, so I'm looking at this differently.
