I dont know why I bet it, even though I know almost nothing about the participants.

(Dont judge me!!!...You know you have done this as well, before LOL)

What really concerns me that Chael Sonnen picked Adesanya as well.

Hot tip! Sonnen is on Brock's level as far as being a mush is concerned

Can Adesanya keep it standing up for 3 out 5 rounds???

If so he should win, no?

Actually hedged out at +775 after the fourth.

The odds indicated that Vettori was behind. But didnt wanna take the chance

You shouldn't be scoring fights then, Izzy won every rd easily

Vettori had nothing for him

I rewatched some of it.

I realize the consensus is against me, but still dont see what Izzy did in round 1 and 5. Yes Vettori wasnt a threat and his takedowns were stuffed but
Izzy didnt do anything. I felt Vettori got those rounds because he was more aggressive.
Guess not...

Aggression is not scored unless the striking/grappling are 100% even. If it is, then you didn’t watch the fight close enough. I think I may use aggression in the scoring criteria under the new rules set maybe 1 in a 100 fights now, if that…Also, when a striker negates the takedowns of a grappler, then the striker is winning the fight. The aggression was not effective, therefore, it didn’t render anything to score for Vetorri… That alone won Izzy those rounds, but he won the striking as well.

The rounds were so easy to score a blind man could’ve gotten it right, 50-45 all day…

Diaz fight honestly seemed rigged given how big of a draw he is for the UFC. He was getting washed for 4 4/5th rounds, now he finishes strong to keep the cash cow going but the result stays the same. I don't really believe this but weird ending. Oh Nate just ran out of time! rather than "Nate is done" is good for his marketability.

Edwards is pretty good, but he would get smashed by Usman, unfortunately. He doesn’t have enough power to justify beating him, and Usman’s power would take his head off if Nate rolled his eyes back with that patty cake smack…

The fight to make is Wonderboy/Usman IF Wonderboy beats Burns. If you wanna feed the loser to Edwards, then that’s fine. Neil Magny would make a great fight for Edwards as well…Covington will turn down anything but Usman, so there’s that, so we shall see what they do…

What you think happens WB/Burns

I've gotten owned both times I've bet WB....1 was Woodley II which he didn't really lose, it was just the worst title fight of all time so everyone basically said fuck it

The other time was Till (which sparked quite the discussion in the in the sub-forum at the time) when he got robbed in another boring ass fight

I don't like his point fighting style at all but he's good for 3 round fights usually and Burns should have trouble closing distance (Burns resume at WW is also pretty meh now that the Woodley fight looks w/e in retrospect)

WB at first glance seems closer to -180 than -140
