Strikeforce Betting Online: It's time to take a candid look at the picks I made before the fight, just so most of you know that I'm not completely full of crap. I didn't do very well on the prop bets, but those carry so many more variables than picking a winner. Let's take a look at how I did -- bear in mind I'm only looking at my winner picks, which are the ones I'm always most confident in. Henderson TKOs Fedor in the first round My pick to win: The balding Russian guy. Sigh.Fedor was my pick simply because he had actually seemed to take his training camp seriously for this fight. Unfortunately, he got laid out facedown and pretty much lost all viability as a top fighter at heavyweight and light heavyweight. I thought the size would be the difference, but now I firmly believe that the game has evolved and passed Emelianenko by.  Continue...
