Pereira vs. Adesanya II
Alex Pereira, TKO, R4
I think Pereira has Adesanya's number. Pereira isn't the only fighter I've heard talk about that- at some point the mental game is more important than the physical game, especially when fighters are so closely matched and I think Pereira lives in Izzy's head rent free.

Burns vs. Masvidal
Gilbert Burns, TKO, R2
I really think the winner of this fight should get the next title shot. It's an opportunity for Masvidal to prove people wrong, but I still think Burns takes this. Only calling this a knockout because I don't know where Jorge's chin is after the Masvidal knockout since Colby didn't catch him too clean in their last fight.

Font vs. Yanez
Adrian Yanez, DEC
Rob Font's last two losses are against Chito and Jose Aldo and he took them to decision- I don't think he gets knocked out by Yanez like so many predict, but I don't see him winning the fight.

Ogden vs. Bahamondes
Ignacio Bahamondes, TKO, R3
Bahamondes is so good. He’s really tightened up his weaknesses (gas tank, tdd, grappling, etc.) and has been looking amazing in the ufc. He’s a giant for the weightclass and really uses his length well. Sick boxing combos, sharp jab, constantly switching stances, great tdd, great fight iq, basically I just really like what I’ve seen from this kid. Ogden is a very solid vet but I have a hard time seeing how he wins. He’s just a basic kickboxer; jab and low kick with nothing much else to offer. Now his grappling is very solid. Good wrestling and very good once he gets on top. However, he’s too inconsistent for me to back him (**** the bed hard against leavitt and even tho he beat Zellhuber I was not impressed). I don’t think his gonna grapple as much and will get lit up on the feet. Also, cutting weight twice in two weeks can’t be good; ogden is a huge 155er and looked like death last week. I’m sure this weeks cut will be even more difficult and he might miss

F_ck Yeah! Bahamondes straight to the big parlay! 

@Ayy - I truly believe if the Zellhuber with high volume strikes on Contender showed up he would have beaten Ogden. I think he had debut nervousness

Yeah idk what it was but that fight was the result of Zellhuber not showing up more than ogden fighting a good fight. He just took advantage on Zellhuber doing nothing, not the one taking the initiative

Exactly...

When I wagered on Zellhuber that night, I was banking on him throwing an abundance of volume, knowing that he could even stand to take one to give one given Ogden's lack of KO ability. 
With Bahamondes...geez! We get to have all that volume + a whole lot more. I'm so pumped to watch this masterclass

Ceerod +235 at Betfair, put my bet in. Taking my chances that the line doesn't move much further than that before match start. Might come back to cost me we'll see.

+400? That's insane. Well I wouldn't even be mad if it went THAT high, I'd just double my stake at that point.

I'm thinking of Waterson by Decsion bet, I don't think Pinheiro is good, My only worry is that Waterson is old, But even tho she losing most of them as of late, She having competive fights with champions and top 5

Pinheiro also has the strike power advantage, so if it goes to decision she will likely have landed the more ‘noticeably impactful’ shots.

Her judo is powerful as well, when Waterson shoots for a TD she’ll get judo flipped aggressively majority of the time

Her judo is actually insane lol. She’s so strong in the clinch and her head and arm throw is pretty much effortless. I think Waterson will get ragdolled and subbed. She’s also not gonna be able to throw a million strikes from 10 feet away since luana walks you down and loves a scrap

I like you so I'll just say this.

Do not put anymore money on Rodriguez and cash out if possible, he's not winning this fight. His takedown defence isn't good enough.
