I might have taken him in the smaller cage as well. I do hope he starches IA for the LOLs though.
I thought about Royval also but I don’t like his stand up much and Kara-France has been damn hard to sub and not easy to control either. I do think he’s a live dog here though betting wise.

Israel Adesanya, TKO, R4
Costa has a punchers chance. I am picking and wagering on Adesanya but will be hedging with Costa by tko,ko,dq. Also with have a parlay Adesanya/over and Costa/under. This goes one of 2 ways. Israel later or Costa early.
Reyes vs. Błachowicz
Dominick Reyes, TKO, R3
I like Reyes but will be hedging my play with a sprinkle of Blachowicz by tko,ko,dq

Jeff Hughes, DEC
So I have a question, what results in bout where one guy wet blankets you all day, and another guy who likes to wait a lot? I'm torn here. But If I haaaad to choose, Hughes.. At least I know what I'm getting there. Espino maaaan, I don't like betting on guys who drop off the MMA scene. Especially far past the athletic prime. Oh well. Gotta pick somebody.
