MLS and BloodJunkie huge congrats on all the new shiny additions to this section. You've got a new customer- I just plopped down 5k on Aerts. I figure it I bet this I have to keep learning more about K-1- right?

First question- A lot of people are betting(early in our vBookie here) against Semmy in the fight with LeBanner- is this because LeBanner is that good(I haven't see him fight but I've read about him here) or is because Semmy has been so dominant and people want to see him lose?

Thanks for the input and ya'lls work on this section- congrats on a job well done.

EDIT: P.S. If Aerts loses MLS I will come to every home game and heckle you relentlessly.

Aerts should take this one, but massive size differences always make me nervous, despite the size difference not usually amounting to much.

I think it's mainly because of the odds for Le Banner. He can beat Schilt but since Schilt has been dominant he has some crazy odds against him. JLB has a good chance to win.

Aerts isn't going to lose so no worries there. Plus if you heckled us people would go crazy on you.

The fact that Schilt has beat JLB a couple times makes the odds greater than they really are. JLB can end that fight with one punch still and his skills are far better than Semmy's. Semmy is just so freaking long that it takes a great gameplan to beat him.

JLB was doing nicely last time and then got hurt. So hopefully this time he pulls it off.
