Yeah, emotional investment in a fight aside. That was probably one of the most brutally glorious fights ever. I mean he basically flash KO'D him twice. Knocked him out. Then choked him into coma. It was as Cub says, "Beautiful violence."

Ohh i was talking about Fluffy trying to murder the Beverly Hills Can Crusher. That was the violence i love. But yes Figgy beating up Joe B twice never gets old either.

Fluffy took his soul brutal KO, figgy literally killed joe b in front of his wife, but jimmy manuwa kissing his wife and daughter on his walk out to the cage and then getting KOed by Rakic with a head kick was so brutal. The KO was so bad i had to turn the tv off

I strongly considered breaking my TV when Aldo lunged into that left hand and went to sleep in 13 seconds. IDK if I've ever been more upset at the result of a fight.

Prediction Comments

Predictions: 8 of 12 Winners, 2 Perfect, 490 Points   |   Tied for 545th

Figueiredo vs. Perez
Deiveson Figueiredo, TKO, R1
Hardest part of this fight was picking between KO and sub. I'm going with KO because that's what Figueredo said he aims to do, but he's very opportunistic in finding a finish so a sub is very possible.

Shevchenko vs. Maia
Valentina Shevchenko, TKO, R2
Maia is not gonna be able to grapple**** her way to a split decision in this one

Perry vs. Means
Tim Means, SUB, R2
"Hitting a woman, that's the one thing you can never come back from." - Dana "Mayor of ******** Town" White

Chookagian vs. Calvillo
Cynthia Calvillo, DEC
Calvillo should absolutely win this, but Chookagian could easily fool the judges by sounding like a women's tennis match.

Rua vs. Craig II
Paul Craig, SUB, R3
I'm so glad they set up this rematch! That first one was INSANE and I wanted to see a rematch immediately. Rua could win by KO and I wouldn't be shocked either

Moreno vs. Royval
Brandon Royval, SUB, R2
Two LFA lightweight champs, the UFC is spoiling fans this week. I've slept on Royval long enough, which means I'll probably be wrong on this pick too haha

Buckley vs. Wright
Joaquin Buckley, TKO, R2
Wright is good but he still hasn't faced tough competition and I can't trust his skills until I see them on display against a worthy opponent. He's crushed multiple cans from my p4p greatest list, that's not a good sign.

Shevchenko vs. Lipski
Antonina Shevchenko, DEC
Lipski has only faced one southpaw and lost, she has a reach disadvantage and is less active. I think this will be a unanimous decision unless she can get her grappling going and treat antonina like Chookagian or Modafferi did, and I'd be willing to bet Antonina has greatly improved her TDD.

Dalby vs. Rodriguez
Daniel Rodriguez, TKO, R1
Rodriguez is a MACHINE

Jouban vs. Gooden
Alan Jouban, TKO, R2
Gonna side with an experience advantage in this one, I'm hoping Jouban retires and starts commentating full time soon because he's really great at that.

Daukaus vs. Stoltzfus
Kyle Daukaus, SUB, R2
This is a great fight, these guys both have a ton of potential. I feel like with the height advantage Daukus might lock up a standing choke and snap down on it for the sub

Cosce vs. Palatnikov
Louis Cosce, TKO, R1
Cosce is gonna put this dude through the fence

Honestly, find Valintina to be the female mightymouse, Watch the secound half of his title run it’s lame and boring just  like Valintina title run beside Joanna and a green Cejudo, they both great fighters fighting cans.

@duck those great fighters make the best in their division look like cans because they're that much above the rest. It's unfair to call them boring for being dominant

Cross Card Hardcore Parlay

Predictions: 7 of 12 Winners, 3 Perfect, 440 Points   |   Tied for 1036th

Here's probably the funnest bet I've made in a while. Parlay Alex Pereira (LFA), Raufeon Stots (Bellator), and Daniel Rodriguez (UFC). Then go to sleep and wake up on Sunday with a 103% return on your investment.

I would watch this card if I could, many champs are over blown lucky or above average can crushers.

I use three bookies actually. I use Bovada for all my live bets and some parlays for UFC because they are the best for those features. I use BetOnline and BetDSI for all my early straight and prop bets since they have the odds up soonest and you usually get the best lines early.

But yeah if you wanna parlay across events (LFA, Bellator, UFC) you either have to wait day of for Bovada or a few days before with BetOnline. Or have a bookie/casino that you can deal with personally, why a lot of sport gamblers reside in Vegas. They get some of the best action in the world because they can catch line shifts at the drop of a hat.

Perez has absolutely no chance of winning this fight. Total mismatch. Literally as lopsided as Valentina vs Maia.

Tieoken Thanks for the heads up, I'll have to check out BetDSI never heard of that one, I think i have a BetOnline account but ended up just using bovana. Would be sweet to do some sport gambling in person in Vegas haha
