Hmm. Is there any chance Jan fights Glover even if he loses??? He kinda needs to get that win back if he wants to be a serious champion… but idk who else would fight for the title and I really don’t want Glover to beat Jiri lmao

Yeah man that was a bad start.

Had a rough few cards to start the year but finally feel things are turning round again with 2 decent outcomes last 2 cards. So I am sure things will improve for you too.

Always fun to mix it up with you guys in here, and on to the next!

I think LHW will go through a generation change soon, HW is already in the process. Women's divisions should be going there as well. 2 years from now things will looks very different

Really glad to hear it bro. The same thing happened to me last year, started off slow and then caught up the rest of the year. 

Still can't get my head around the Cutelaba fight. Who is more stupid, the fighter who lost in the most ******** way possible? Or the person (me) who bet on that fighter. I guess it's me! Lol

A bit unlucky on that one I think, front guilloutine is literally Spann's entire arsenal in the grappling game

@rusty lol yeah that fight is pissing me off so much. Especially because I don’t (and still don’t after that performance) rate Spann one bit. I guess he just fought the one person with worse fight iq than him LOL!

I know right? Lol can't plan for those kind of situations or the Rakic one. Hope Rakic recovers.

I don't think being deprived of oxygen from the choke will affect Ion's peanut brain at all so he should be fine too. Maybe he had too many nights out with Keith Peterson, he looked like he was drunk in there falling over his own feet. 

Anyway guys, I am heading off. Great to mix it up with you! Good luck for next week

Grant vs Smolka was better than Chook/Ribas. Not that it wasn’t a bad fight but I’d of rather scene those guys get it or 2 more performance bonuses.  I’d of went with Grant and Petroski.

Read your post about ''Spann is trash'', then checked others picks ( I do not do it often) and switched my "Spann 1st round sub" to "1st TKO cutelaba"... yo man... lol
