ZoomerBet i was up that early catching a flight back from Houston for UFC 265. If you're really a die hard fan, it's a must that you go to one of these PPVs coming up. It really was one of the best sport experience I ever had and I travel all over the country to watch different sports.  I just be talking trash and joking flying_frontkick
. Everyone who has gotten to know me in a personal chat, knows I really am harmless, just spicing up these forums a little bit. I'll call a truce Zoomerbet

Is the goal to make no one bet on colby so he's a massive underdog, then you flip the script and bet on him and make a hundred billion gazillion dollars???

Eaganoe never bro. People will bet on Colby... 50% of people voted for Trump twice when some thought it was no way he should get 10% of votes

Prediction Comments


Usman vs. Covington II
Kamaru Usman, TKO, R4
Usman is p4p best fighter right now.  I only see old age beating him




Gaejthe vs. Chandler
Gaejthe, TKO, R2
I mostly hate the UFC as a company.  It's almost as bad as boxing when developing matchups. 
But, SHIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET this is fireworks.  Even though Chandler has the gas tank and wrestling that might tire out Justin, I don't think he has the defense to make that style work.


Strickland vs. Rockhold
Strickland, Dec
Geez, the UFC must hate Rockhold for booking this fight after 3 years away from the sport.

gaethje v kamaru would be an insane matchup if they would be in same division 
And kamaru v khabib 

They could make it work but would never

Usman finishes Colby again!

Predictions: 12 of 14 Winners, 2 Perfect, 705 Points   |   Tied for 620th

I’m worried that Usman vs Colby 1 was Colbys best shot at winning the 170lb belt. I think Usman is too active, has improved tremendously, and has beaten several really good fighters since their 1st fight, whereas Colby is kinda inactive and doesn’t have any wins over any current top 15 welterweights, other than Demian Maia, who probably shouldn’t be ranked anymore.

His last wins are we’re against
Tyron, 39
Robbie, 39
RDA, 36
Maia, 43
Hyun Kim, 39

I think Usman finishes Colby quicker this time and doesn’t leave any doubts.

Lol I'm all for some banter too but we can truce once I beat you in the challenge. Just make sure your picks next week are better than you did this week ;)

I love it  ZoomerBet ... I just wanna reiterate, I'm #1 in every competition I'm in. All 6 of them.  FeedingABusCarrots is the closest to my score, and he's the guy with 80% prediction record. There's level to this ZoomerBet haha. Hopefully you didn't blow your load last week on the PFL/Bellator warmups haha

It's weird for you to come here to read some stats off just to say you're losing...that logic is lacking. Thanks for telling everyone I'm 13/37 when everyone knows I went 2/10 the week our competition started (that was the joke when the forum 1st started). The flex is that even at my worst, I'm still beating you my guy  njrp77 . You mistyped... congrats on being better than you

Zoomer asking for a truce is a sign of weakness, the mythic undisputed FantasyMMA champion Plusmoneygod is getting in his head.

He asked for it first, I said we "can" but in reality we probably won't. He knows he's gonna lose eventually so he's trying to ease his way out of it before it's too late. To be clear, I reject the truce regardless of the outcome, I will crush PlusMoney like an ant and ignore his pleas for mercy.
