-Chris Leben vs. Jason MacDonald

Round 1: Leben catches a low kick and follows MacDonald to the ground. Leben stands and connects on a few strikes while the Canadian tries to stand. For the next several minutes, MacDonald shoots unsuccessfully several times and receives heavy damage from the limbs of Chris Leben. The first round is all Leben, mmaworld.org scores the first round 10-9 for Leban

Round 2: Leben catches a MacDonad low kick and follows with a right hand and a takedown. MacDonald gives up side-control after going for an armbar from his back. MacDonald uses a Kimura to get back to his feet. "The Athlete" sores his first takedown of the bout. MacDonald secures a guillotine from the top position in half-guard, before rolling over to finish. Chris Leben was choked out cold briefly. He didn't tap, but MacDonald gets the win via submission.

Winner: Jason MacDonald def. Chris Leben via Submission (Guillotine) at 4:03 of Round 2

I hate to see you lose your money...Next time you can just donate it to me :lolbeat:

Nite Nite LEBEN,.....I think we just saw his UFC career take a nap.... 2 loses in a row is normally enough for a UFC hiatus :(

[Python]

That is why I did not put alot on him and i am still sittin pretty... I think he will get another fight he brings fans and money but.....He had better get some ground game this is MMA not punch fest!!!

[keithpas]

Leben is going to have to do more then get a weird haircut to make it in the upper ranks of the UFC. McDonald was lucky he did'nt get knocked out but he impresses me with his submission skills.

[Boo]

Yeah, I won. Wish I'd bet more now...

[strife]

he was even money dumb dumb....even though he was a -160 underdog on online betting sites

You know I just noticed when I put up that last post that he was even money. Didn't really matter, cause I thought he was going to win, but I thought he Jason was the underdog in this fight.

[Bernie]

Jason took some hits in this fight and pulled out a wicked submission. Great fight!

[strife]

jason was the underdog, but i guess python already knew the outcome so he made him 1/1

How was he the underdog?
He came to the UFC and his first fight submitted Ed Herman, from that fight and the style that Leban has I assumed a submission would happen and it did. Jason dose so so on his feet and I figured he could hold out to get him on the ground and submit him. More of a well rounded fighter than Leban. So you guessed RIGHT!

[strife]

bookies had him at -166 or so underdog

[Boo]

Python, you bet 25,000 on Leben. I'm the only one who bet on Jason. I do think the odds should have been longer on Jason, since NO one seemed to agree with me here or anywhere else.

But hey man, It's over and done with and I'm not gonna get over excited about play money. If I was that serious I would have paid attention to the odds BEFORE the fight.
