Ref doesn't give a single fuck

 

Rey Mysterio!

 

Woof

Match cancelled for Rosa's and Turcios

 

Sucks to lose that one

 

Ortega getting smoked in the stand up

 

1-1

 

Their fighting styles summed up in those first two rounds

 

wow

 

TRIANGLE FUCKING CITY!!!

 

That’s a big upset

 

Rolled his ankle during introductions too

 

I know he’s smaller but Morenos fighting like he doesn’t have a jab. Everything over the top and loopy

 

Moreno lost

 

Moreno is tough as shit, but definitely panicked with the height/reach disparity

 

I was cheering for Moreno but that’s the right decision

 

The split decisions tonight have led to some all time scorecards

 

Royval’s output at that elevation for 5 rounds was crazy last night

 

Best place to watch old cards? I started watching around 2005 when my local poker home game was buying them but tbh my memory isn't great and no chance I'd remember how a fight from 2007 went. Just want to go back and watch some of the old cards.

 

scared the shit out of me when i saw it

was so fucking happy when he locked that choke in though

 

also love shit like this

 

Don't hate that. We have golf sweats, UFC sweats, Clemson/Carolina baseball, and Clemson basketball today. My kid better settle the fuck in because we're not doing shit today.

 

got the state karate competition in denver at 1:30 for my little guy. is it frowned upon to have a shit ufc card playing on my phone during it?

 

Sit on the back row and pretend like you’re recording.

 

absolute pro move here

 

Where some see dog shit i see opportunity

 

Are they hitting each other wearing pads or is it "forms"

 

he is 4 so mostly forms and hitting pads

 

That is probably more entertaining than watching 14 year olds hitting each other in pads TBH

 

it’s cute as hell that’s for sure. once he gets to 6-7 i’d like to get him in bjj or higher level karate/kickboxing only if he wants to. would give me an excuse to join the classes as well

 

As far as bets go:

I like Rozenstruik via KO. Gaziev has looked great, but he has not fought good competition. I am willing to take a shot on the veteran KO artist.
Also think Tyson Pedro has a chance to win vs Petrino. Petrino has also fought not great competition and has bad head strike defense. I took the Pedro KO prop at +650.
Also bet Loik Radzhabov +146 vs Al-Selwady. Another experienced fighter vs someone who has a very modest strength of schedule.

Parlay keys for me are Erceg and CLD/Ribeiro no distance. Also took Erceg via Dec +200.

This card is such a chalk fest, wouldn't be surprised if one of the big favorites goes down so I stayed away from parlaying them all together. Used basically everyone in different ways though.

I think newcomer Oliveira should win vs late replacement Sopaj.

No distance on Anders/Pickett at -110 is good value.

 

wasn't the fight that got canceled last week supposed to be added to this one?

 

Radzhabov closing at +102 for Circa. I almost hate when the line move is on my side in MMA

 

Turcios said no, which I dont fault him for. Rosas Jr called it off like 5 mins before

 

At this rate we are going to see 2+ hours of UFC promos or this card will be over in under 2 hours.

 

I have a serious golf sweat going, sick kid, wife is at work. So I just ran the sims for this ov/ev card since I have very little clue who a lot of these guys are. 15 lineups and Klein was on 10 of them and only 28% owned in the big tourney ($100k up top), so off to a nice start.

 

The sweet spot of landing a lot of sig strikes and then also getting the first round finish. Amazing he was only 28% owned, how pricey was he?

 

$9.6k. I think he got sandwiched a little with lots of people opting for Nurmagomedov and a little Basharat instead. Have very little Nurmagomedov and zero Basharat, who just shit the bed.

 

Nice flying knee to the face

 

Holy shit that was nasty

 

Especially after being left for dead early in the 2nd.

 

well, if not for the flying knee KO, that would probably be the KO of the night
