Never ask DrCasual for betting advice my friend.

That is straight up financial suicide. 

From Bellator, Hokit should also be a lock but personally I'm a bit sceptical of the guys they are signing straight from university wrestling. 

If you're willing to wait an extra week for a payout Jenkins and Makhachev are locks from 284.

Shut up Morondrew, speak when spoken to dog. Get your bum ass out of here, nobody asked for your worthless opinion. I guarantee you Im doing better than you on this card lmfao. 

Jesus Christ I live rent free in that guy's head. Can't even talk in a thread and have my name mentioned without his mangy mutt ears perking up and following me here. Quite pathetic

Anyway @Staha I'd add Taira and Hokit. Maaaaybe Lugo if you're feeling a little courageous. If we're looking at next week's card then Makhachev is pretty much a lock (sorry Volk) and so is Tukhugov

You mock big favourites then suggest a -1200 and a -700?

Shows your level when Bates gets 30-27'd. Lugo's a less egregious favorite than everyone else and Bates arguably lost to a 10-7 middle aged man. Lugo is gonna kick his ass

I was mocking the big favorites because 2 -700's aren't gonna get you **** lmao. 4 or 5 is much better. I don't even bet, how am I schooled you on this lmfao. 

Also for the record I wasn't mocking the favorites. It just seems like a ****** parlay. If you're only do 2 fighters then that makes zero sense. That's not even a parlay, its a glorified side pick

Hokit isn’t that much better of a wrestler then his oppenent 😂 and I’d say Peter has better striking and similar cardio so -600 is crazy.. Hokit was struggling with that bum Matias when Peter won round 1 against cas bell until getting hit with a a crazy kneee that would ko anyone.. not a lock at all

Lara looked like **** in her last one but she's still the best girl Diana has fought, so things could get interesting. Wouldn't touch her now that odds are even however.

Karl should bounce back nicely here, he was looking good in his last one til he got caught, which is something he won't have to worry about when facing someone as one dimensional as Neal.

Tempted by Caldwell's growing underdog status. Mikhailov laid a massive egg against Barzola in his last one and gassed even earlier than Darrion did, so this could be the fight that snaps his skid. Imo we should be looking at a more even fight rather than a Nikita -180 line.
