Oddsmakers for tonight: Bellator 55
Bellator continues to roll on MTV2, and tonight will see the continuation of the bantamweight tournament which features 40 year old wunderkind Alexis Vila. Here’s our look at the betting lines:
Odds from BetUS Sportsbook. Accurate as of 0815 October 22, 2011
Alexis Vila (-375) vs Marcos Galvao (+275)
Pick: Vila
Vila was supposed to be fed to featherweight champ Joe Warren. Instead, the undersized Cuban defector KTFO’d Warren, who is probably one of the most unpopular champs today.
Ed West (+220) vs Eduardo Dantas (-300)
Pick: West
This is a close one. West made it to the finals and lost to Zach Makovsky. Dantas has great submissions and has only lost to Masakatsu Ueda. West hasn’t lost by submission and is extremely difficult to finish.
Christian M’Pumbu (-190) vs Travis Wiuff (+155)
Pick: M’Pumbu
Wiuff has a Jeremy Horn like record, but 205 pound champ M’Pumbu should have the power to get the stoppage in this non-title fight.
Ricardo Tirloni (-350) vs Steve Gable (+250)
Pick: Tirloni
Tirloni has the experience edge, good power, good submissions, and has performed well so far.
