This women's fight will be very interesting.  Elise has had 7 pro fights (the last 3 in the UFC) while Martinez has been gone from MMA during the COVID era the past 3 years.  I believe Martinez was doing kickboxing though so she wasn't completely inactive.  Let's see what happens.

Elise Reed is trash tbh. She only beat McKenna b/c Mckenna is an atomweight in the strawweight division

I feel bad for weeks, he'll most likely get cut because of a bad scorecard

Yeah that was a close ass fight, Round one clearly went to Yohan and Round 2 clearly Weeks. I think Yohan attempting the submission and flying knee at the end is ultimately what sealed the deal since either didn’t do **** the entire third round. So all in all that wasn’t a robbery.

I guess the people who thought Weeks was near a lock was wrong, even had he won.

Idc who wins this next one. Martinez is an ese and could be a really good prospect, but I also kinda hate her for taking half a decade off. Plus unless I really like someone I’ll almost always hope for them to lose their 0. Idk, either way this goes I’m cool but **** it lets go Melly cause you’re my pick

I think people should have a rule for themselves to only bet money when they think there is going to be a finish. You shouldn't depend your money on judges that don't know how to score ****

I had no problem with that scorecard, 3 round Lanese arguably did more damage, Weeks was kinda ‘winning’, but not doing damage while doing is, I think I still score it for Weeks, I thought the damage was pretty equal, Amd weeks won on the lower criteria

@Blackbet25 should definitely keep it classy and not do that but I'd be liar if I said I wouldn't check it out.
