Kunchenko "whacked the cake". Apparently Oddsbot has the "touch of death".

Lesson to be learned - do not let oddsbot finger you.

Man Jordan Young isn't very good isn't he? All that Can Crushing on the Bellator Blood sacrifice Prelim hour hasn't done him much good.

Still, Tom Lawlor is handling him. Eesh!!

im not going to lie, im only a few weeks brand new into PFL and i love it, but Im not good with making my own decisions and havent had time to tape study so  i mainly mimic tapology picks but in these lower organizations its risky to do so.
I look through their records and whatnot but that dont help much. You NEED the tape study 
WHO won round 2 though?

True the nice thing about PFL is the amount of former UFC fighters. Makes it easier to watch tape

Thank You Duke76 
for talking so much trash about Tom Lawlor.
You invigorated me into betting Tom, especially after seeing footage from Jordan. 
He is the archetype for the type of jiu jitsu fighters the world should hate. 
he's terrible and only made it this far due to his size/strength.

Nice prediction yoel on keeping it real about this fight.

even if he loses, just the fact he got this close already proves how close minded some of you are.

Well I thought Jordan Young could get through Lawlor at least. I thought very wrong.

Parlay burst already. Jordan Young had no energy, couldn't throw a strike and a sub specialist couldn't amass more than 1 attempt

Lawlor almost completely dominated the fight, except for the moment where he was caught with the guillotine when looking for a takedown (but still dominated the end of the round with the mount and the arm-triangle attempt). Lawlor showed all of his veteranism, but what I found surprising was Young's lack of initiative for practically the entire fight except for certain moments in the second round and the beginning of the third.

i'm sorry for all who lost money on Young, 
unless your name Is Duke76.

Also as a gambler, i don't know how anyone one of you could lay money on Jordan. he is quite terrible.
I wouldn't even bet usman at -400, let alone some low tier guy i never heard of
