Worst picks I ever made on a card, at least switched from Tuivasa to Tybura 5 mins before the picks locked

Sorry to beat a dead horse but *** Nzechukwu?!?!? No killer instinct, just hesitation.

I always look for the silver lining - OSP still washed BUUUUUUT - now he's inspired to stick around. More opportunities to make money betting against him.

Nzechukwu? Time to make $$$ on the fade. Thank goodness I only bet play money on that clown tonight

my best guess is that it has to be stress hitting them in that situation because he probably rarely trains high level grappling, let alone putting himself in those positions on the mats time and time again. does he train grappling? I'm sure he does, but it's clearly not enough since, like you said, he doesn't even have the proper reflexes in the most basic positions. the stress could also be causing him to think too slow, one step at a time, while Tybura has been in that situation probably thousands of times, he can just easily "flow" and go from step 1 to step 4 seamlessly

Yes it was a layup for Kennedy - blowing it probably means UFC is done pushing him

Also - Battle WAS the 1st one to finish Loosa. It's official...

I'm a Battle fan now simply from his post fight interview

I was thinking before the fight that there is no reason Kennedy should ever be a -600 favorite. However, I didn't think he was going to actually lose to 40 year old OSP.

Tai got choked out, Battle got screwed, and Nzechukwu completely bottled his chance against a freebee. Such a dissapointing end to a solid card. Oh well, at least we get Talbott vs Saaiman next week?

Kennedy was my last parlay hit. Got him at good odds. Him throwing that fight to a guy with an age of Arlovski and chin of Rockholds feels like a fever dream.

A few things to keep in mind from this event:

Ange Loosa is a quittin ***** and should be remembered as a quittin ***** for as long as he still is in the UFC. 

Never put money on Kennedy Nzechukwu, does not matter if it's against an old gradma that never fought before, he might lose by decision because he is scared to trade with her. 

Christian Rodriguez won the fight by a wrong judge decision.
