Top Prop UFC 108

The holidays are over and the famously "cursed" UFC 108 us finally upon us.  We SHOULD be taking bets on whether Brock Lesnar is going to make a spectacle of himself again, perhaps by ripping down the sign of every sponsor who hasn't paid him any money and publicly defecating on them, but instead we'll have to settle for placing bets on the antics of European wild man Gilbert Yvel.

          Yvel
Yvel really, really hates losing, and considering that he's facing the monster known as Junior Dos Santos, Yvel is almost certainly going to lose.  So far in his career Yvel has gone beyond run of the mill poor sportsmanship to perform a Tyson style ear-bite, and actually vented his frustrations by knocking out the referee.  Freaking awesome.

In an act of crazed desperation to get a lineup of healthy fighters for UFC 108, Dana White has used his influence with the Nevada state gaming commission to get Yvel a one time fight license.  Obviously, if he doesn't keep his shit together Yvel will never be able to take a professional fight in Nevada again.

Top Prop UFC 108:  Will Gilbert Yvel go crazy?

It's impossible to know exactly what a crazy person will do, so this bet is obviously a little open ended, but that's life.  If you can't handle uncertainty, maybe you shouldn't be gambling in the first place.  Personally I'm hoping Yvel tries to start something with Joe Rogan after the fight and winds up getting his ass kicked by the Tae Kwon Do veteran...  A man can dream, right?
