Russell Jr. vs. Magsayo
Mark Magsayo, TKO, R4
1 of these days the 2 years Russell takes off between every fight is going to catch up with him. Magsayo is nowhere near the boxer skill and technique wise but he's aggressive and powerful. If Russell isn't sharp he could get caught. I think Magsayo has to jump on him. At the very least I think his aggressive style is going to force an action fight! If Russell hasn't lost a step he wins this, has he though?

Ananyan vs. Matias II
Petros Ananyan, DEC
So nearly everyone thinks that Ananyan winning the 1st fight was a fluke??

Nyambayar vs. Lukas
Tugstsogt Nyambayar, DEC
Disappointed Pasillas fell out of the fight, happy that King Tug has a replacement and is still on the show.

Ananyan vs. Matias II
Subriel Matias, TKO, R9
By hook or by crook (well, hook more likely), Subriel Matias finds a KO.

Holyfield vs. Rollins
Evan Holyfield, TKO, R1
This is how I want to see the Holyfield name continue in boxing. Through the family's exciting prospect Evan rather than through his nearly 60 year old dad getting beaten up by former MMA fighters.

Magsayo backers

Predictions: 4 of 7 Winners, 1 Perfect, 255 Points   |   Tied for 64th

Incase anyone else is considering backing Magsayo to pull of the upset tomorrow some further info for you to consider. 
Gary Russell missed weigh on his 1st attempt, went away and came back to make it, still it's not great.
Also he has basically trained himself for this training camp, due to his father having his foot amputated. 
The odds have shrunk even further now, he started around - 650, is now as low as - 300/-350

He also said at the press conference he's dealing with an injury, probably why he's struggling to make weight. Feels like the stars are aligning for this one.

Predictions: 1 of 3 Winners, 0 Perfect, 50 Points   |   Tied for 131st

Nyambayar vs. Lukas
I go for Tugstsogt Nyambayar at -3333. He has a zingy overhand. Nyambayar is about to locate the dissentient.

Ananyan vs. Matias II
I tap Subriel Matias at -400. He has a glamorous ankle lock. Matias won't negate the cutman. Easy!

Russell Jr. vs. Magsayo
I choose Gary Russell Jr. at -350. He has an egregious double leg. Russell Jr. should drain the chosen one.

Yeah, I feel a little dumb for not picking Magsayo! I said all week how this had all the ingredients for an upset.

Horrible showing from both men. Russell Jr should've postponed if his lead hand was in that bad of shape he couldn't throw it at all and Magsayo for the life of him couldn't pivot or use any footwork to get to the weak side of Russell when it became clear his hand was completely compromised. Know it's easier side than done against someone with Russell's movement but there was no attempt of. Feels like Roach and team skipped a few steps with his training. 

The compubox stats were wildly inaccurate, there was a moment in the 7th where Russell clearly evades a whole flurry and lands two beautiful counters only for compubox to record a hit for Magasayo and nothing for Russell. 

By the end I had Russell by 115-113. Magasayo started strong and I had them tied 3-3 going into the 7th but by the mid point Russell was completely taking over before fading at the Championship rounds. Close fight but I didn't think Magasayo deserved the nod. Russell defended his belt with one hand, and Magasayo maybe the worst Featherweight Champion I've seen since Kid Galahad.

Russel Jr

Predictions: 2 of 4 Winners, 0 Perfect, 115 Points   |   Tied for 123rd

Should have known better than to pick him. Long lay off, missed weight, talking about injuries, trained himself, family issues, damn how many red flags did I need?

How often do fighters talk about their injuries before the fight? After the fight yes, but before? Damn, he was making excuses before he stepped into the ring. He knew he was going to lose.

So annoyed at myself for not thinking this through. Lesson learned. Did no damage to my wallet per se as my parlays with him in it had crashed and burned anyway due to Ranoni Barcelos and Kay Hansen in the UFC.

Only reason I still picked him was because Mark was rubbish, and he was and still almost lost against an injured unmotivated fighter. What a S-storm
