D-Rod was +590 in the 3rd round... I didn't take it because I felt he was losing the fight.

Well that makes me feel really happy about not betting Li. Nothing worse than making the correct bet on a dog and having the judges take it away. That **** can take days to get rid of mentally.

I mean, Li rung his bell in the second. It was the most significant moment of the round.

No idea how you give Drod the 2nd.

He took the third and that's it IMO.

I have to wonder how much the commentary team influences the judges. A lot of those 'Great' jabs actually didn't even land. I'd say upwards of 70%.

No way Li loss that. It was close but Li did more damage, landed more and was more accurate

Not a robbery but Leech really has gotten ****** over badly this week. First he doesn’t get to show off his suit, then he has to fight someone who didn’t cut as much as him, and then he loses a close split decision most people scored for him. I guess this makes up for the Dalby loss? I see a lot of people saying that wasn’t a robbery (didn’t watch the fight but I assume it wasn’t if one judge gave it 30-27). Was it as close as this fight?

Let's go Holland, punch that rat lip through Chimaev's skull.

I wouldn’t mind Holland winning tbh. Would be funny af if all 3 undefeated people lost on this card, and also funny if Holland stole all Chimaevs hype and ranking after getting wrestle****** by Brunson of all people (and Vettori)

I had $1000 on Leech and saw that he lost. You guys need to accept reality, split decision losses are deserved when you throw the fight in the third round like Leech did tonight. Darian Weeks did the exact same thing against Lainesse earlier tonight.

From a very possible KO highlight win to a Split Decision loss... I personally think it was Li 29-28. But the most outstanding was the fact that he did not put any buts to face a much heavier fighter (a situation unrelated to D-Rod, Daniel prepared for a catchweight).
