Only been watching since January, excited to watch the likes of Tony, Jacarè and Chucky Olives fight live after watching so many highlights

Seeing a lot about Chandler being able to keep up with Oliveira in terms of wrestling, excited to see how it plays out!

I think Tony's best days are behind him, and Dariush is an excellent striker. I'm leading toward Dariush but man it'd be great to see Tony get back to his ways, but if you are a Tony fan you know he takes the damage then tires you out and finishes you.

Pumped for both the Main Event and the Co-Main Event.  I'm on Chandler ITD and Dariush by Decision.  Would love to see Tony get the W, but we will see.

Barboza vs Burgos will be fire. Think it will go down exactly like Barboza vs Hooker. Burgos will take a beating from leg kicks and punches. You really need to mix it up to beat barboza. Strong wrestling and preasure. Challenge him in a straight forward striking could mean a few years off your fighting career and forgetting the 5th grade.

The Barboza vs Burgos fight is dependent on 2 things:

1) Burgos crazy output and if Barboza can keep up with it
2) How much damage Burgos can absorb, his striking defense isn't good

@BeakPunch that's great, I remember when I first started watching MMA and the matchups are even better now than they were then! You picked a great time to get into this sport

Oliveira vs. Chandler
Michael Chandler, TKO, R3
Line only favors Olives because he’s been in the ufc fighting for some time now, but the level of competition is questionable in comparison to the people Chandler has fought. Ask yourself how would Olives record look like if he fought the people chandler did.

Ferguson vs. Dariush
Beneil Dariush, TKO, R2
Ferguson looks like a shell of a man

I'm kinda getting pissed at the UFC for only promoting Chandler on this card. The Embedded has become the Chandler show, I don't mind Chandler, but I also want the UFC to promote all the other fighter too because this card is stacked with intresting fighter in well match fights

I guess this is what a competitive card is supposed to look like. And being that nearly every fight is a pick em, all it takes it a two fight parlay to start making real money, but man... It's nice to have a -300 sure thing or two to anchor some bets together. This is a crapshoot.

Round Robin Souza, Grundy, Chookagian and Shevchenko. Teams of 2 and 3. If any fail larger straight bet on Chookagian to recoup or break even. She is my most confident pick of this card (still wouldn't bet that much).

Just gonna keep it simple with Dairush and chandler/olivera fight does not got the distance for -104. Maybe I'll add Chookagian so when she loses, it will be a reminder to NEVER bet on female fighters.
