Maximov vs. Petroski
Nick Maximov, DEC
Andre is being undervalued I think, I wouldn't be shocked to be wrong here.

yeah I think Petroski is live here and I'm shocked by the odds. Both guys are kind of limited works in progress, but I havent seen anything that makes me think Maximov is that far ahead.

Kinda find it funny how Nick Maximov went from  a clear but boring win over Puna in the Co-Main a few month ago to the Curtain Jurker of this card in a step down in compution

Zingy New Predictions

Predictions: 5 of 9 Winners, 3 Perfect, 325 Points   |   Tied for 2811th

Smolka vs. Grant
I select Davey Grant at -300. He has a nerdy leg kick. Grant ought to clinch the counteragent. I bet my life on it!

Chookagian vs. Ribas
I go with Katlyn Chookagian at -185. She has a perfect ground and pound. Chookagian will likely grind the counteragent.

Błachowicz vs. Rakić
I can't get enough of Aleksandar Rakić at -200. He has a meritorious triangle choke. Rakić shall drain the production. I bet my life on it!

Hadley vs. Nascimento
I favor Jake Hadley at -220. He has a bonkers quivering palm death touch and a underrated overhead chop and also a villainous spinning back fist. Hadley isn't about to nationalize the deed. Guaranteed!

Johnson vs. Patrick
I love Michael Johnson at -150. He has a creative attitude and a laudable attitude. Johnson ought to hamper the chosen one.

Jandiroba vs. Hill
I favor Virna Jandiroba at -190. She has a maladapted mounted elbow drop. Jandiroba ought to vandalize the previous pitfalls. Easy!

Spann vs. Cutelaba
I am taking Ion Cutelaba at -225. He has a decent left hand. Cutelaba could locate the counteragent. Easy!

Maximov vs. Petroski
I love Nick Maximov at -380. He has a zesty double leg. Maximov ought to screw the ring announcer. So say we all!

Candelario vs. Taira
I finger Tatsuro Taira at -250. He has a maniacal mountain bomb. Taira can immobilize the rival. Easiest pick of the night!

Progressive parlay

Predictions: 7 of 11 Winners, 3 Perfect, 440 Points   |   Tied for 999th

2 weeks of the top ticket busting, and then most the latter legs failing also. Very low right now but we're going to keep trying. Decided since I'm limited to 6 legs if I use props, I'ma start taking more valuey odds. So if you wanna fade these, I wouldn't blame you, but I'm tryna turn things around this week. 


Chook ML + Araujo/Lee over 2.5 +105


Add rakic ml +210


Add hill ml +685


Add nascimento round3/Dec +3650

Add Camacho by split dec +70000

@duck kind of shocked they did that tbh. Even if he’s boring, they love to hype up dwcs guys. Especially ones trained by nick and Nate. It’s good he’s first fight on the card cuz he’s boring af. Hopefully with a similar style matchup he has an entertaining fight

I have a good feeling about this card, lots of fight that could produce decent livebets, getting my prebets downvoted, everything that usually correlates with a good night!

I thought this was starting at the usual 5:30 - 6:00 PM afternoon start time so I could have some fights to watch ahead of the big Charlo/Castaño II fight and Zurdo vs. Boesel and Kovalev vs. Pulev.

The card itself is fine imo for a Fight Night. I’m mostly looking forward to MJ/Nuguette and Jan/Rakić.

Last minute change

Predictions: 7 of 11 Winners, 1 Perfect, 405 Points   |   Tied for 1550th

Last minute change from Johnson to Patrick, studied record ans and tape in more detail and i think he might actually surprise against all odds.

Maximov's win over Puna was anything but clear, 0 dmg lay and pray. Judges reverted to 2012 to score that one.

Small 4 way underdog parlay

Predictions: 7 of 11 Winners, 1 Perfect, 405 Points   |   Tied for 1550th

Underdogs that have a chance to become live dogs in my opinion on small £2 parlay, Patrick, Spann, Blachowicz , Smolka -£105 return on money lines

I hope Petroski is not better than Soriano. Maybe Maximov even gets a sub win.

True but it has happened before, Kaitlyn’s last fight against maia put me to sleep and I also fell asleep during the last PFL card
