he got robbed. judges obviously heavily weighed in those takedowns with 10 seconds left in the 1st and 2nd...Comment -
so machida lostComment -
Dude is getting a bill - or at least those half ass judges are.Comment -
I had the fight scored 30-27 for Machida. These must be the same judges that scored the Fortuna boxing match last night.Comment -
Why can't these judges do their job. How hard can it be.Comment -
Betting Machida at 3:1 is betting him within the octagon, its rules, judges & so forth. Machida is the better fighter. Objectively, Machida should have won the decision. Machida at implied odds of 75+% is square as penetrate.Comment -
Disagree with you completely here. I had Machida here, and I think that the fact that he lost doesn't instantly make it a bad bet. I factored my perceived odds of Davis winning a "bad" decision into my handicapping, along with Lyoto's inactivity at times, and I still thought Lyoto won more often than the lines indicated. If I hadn't factored that in, I'd be angry at myself, but I don't consider it a bad wager, simply the wrong side of variance. I thought Lyoto won more than 85% of the time. Still leaves a 1-15% chance that he loses, however.
I understand the sentiment, as I'm sure a lot of people thought "Lyoto gud at stop taekduns, hit rly gud" and all-in'd on him, but I did my due diligence, watched the tape and put the time in, so I don't think it was a square bet, personally. I do understand why you do, though.Comment -
bro you got a stream link?Comment -

I feel you MD. I stopped laying thick juice on Machida after his inactivity cracked a parlay of mine versus 'Page while I was their live for my first event (123). Shit ruined my night and scarred me from betting him at 75+% unless it's an absolute squash match... Davis has good enough pitter patter striking (points wise not technically) and pitter patter wrestling to steal rounds, and I stress steal.Comment -
Yeah, I 'capped Machida around the 88% mark, thinking Davis could steal a decision most of the time he won, and occasionally get the submission. His takedown defence looked as good as I could have hoped, to be honest. He made a huge mistake in round one that literally had me screaming at my stream, which was that he blitzed Davis and ran right at him recklessly looking for the KO. It was the classic Machida blitz, but he didn't maintain range throughout and was in a position where Davis could easily duck under. Fortunately, Davis didn't capitalize, but it was then that Machida made the true mistake, which was to stay on the inside while Davis got back to his feet in an attempt to overwhelm him. Easy bodylock trip, which cost Machida the fight.
Machida fought about as bad as you can expect Machida to fight, to be honest, considering how consistent Machida generally is. He only has one gear, so to see him deviate from it for a short period of time and make a mistake that cost him the round is a shock.Comment -
Well well well. Another bad decision with all the money on a fighter (Machida)who gets fuked. U guys keep on thinking it is bad judging and how it needs to change and people with a clue will realize the real problem. Amazing how that line dropped also to get even more money on the fight. I can see it on this board. People thinking someone out there is betting lots of money on Davis so lets load up more on Machida. The gambling gods play people once again. Bunch of crooks who steal innocent peoples money because, well, they can. All Davis needed to do this fight was get the third round over and he was good as gold. Keep on thinking the Brazil factor. This fight just shows ya that if there is enuf money on one fighter the judges don't give a dick about the venue. DisgraceComment -
Robbed!Comment -
LOL I bet Thor posts from a Y2K bunker, drinking canned water.Comment -
Got burned here pretty bad, had about a 10 unit bet on machida.
Personally I had it 30-27 machida, but 29-28 with Davis winning rd 2 is totally reasonable.
29-28 davis across the board seems ridiculous to me, but I guess its a matter of how one interprets "effective grappling, effective striking and octagon control".
Bleh.Comment -
Lyoto and his boring style... Never will fight for TS again.Comment -
u guys will never learned. i wrote a post before the fact that Davis could win this decision but i thought he prolly would not cause the line was up to 4 to 1. Sure enuf u asshat got led to slaughter as the books figured they had to give u nitwits a push and drop that line under three to one. Why do u think they did that? U honestly think money was coming in large on Davis LMFAO. Keep on blaming the judges like good little pigeons. A guy like me who has done this for 30 years can see right thru this bullshit. U fuks cry about Brazilian judging and all that other silly nonsense yet here is the perfect example where it had everything to do with the amount of money bet on one fighter and not piss on the other. I think the only guy i saw on Davis, on this whole clueless site, was Rock. Now i will be honest and say i didn't see the fight yet, but i do see what is said on the sites. Im sure he got robbed. Im just trying to help some of u guys pointing something out a child should be able to see but the funny thing about gambling is the stubbornness of ego's. It is actually kinda sad. Oh and cous i aint the one losing here. I was the one trying to help ya from being robbed of money ya probably worked hard for. The question ya really should ask me is why i even try to help guys i don't know a fuk about. If u guys bet like me it would make my job even harder. This was the perfect fight to set people up. Two guys with a huge possibility to go the full three rounds and one having a ton of money on him. These odds makers know what is up and they also know how incredibly naive sports wagerers are.Last edited by Thor4140; 08-04-13, 07:25 PM.Comment -

junkie has Machida winning Frenzy has Machida winning lol but the judges missed another one. Books win Public gets blasted. Figure out what the common denominator is here fellas. Stop being stubborn blockheads.Comment -
just watched it lol. Davis landed 1 and i say this as i laugh 1 punch the first round while running the whole entire round and getting staggard three times with two possibly him being off balance. On this night tho pathetic take-downs count for the guy with no money bet on him. Round two i thought was the closest but again Davis this time landed two punches and ran the whole round. Round two Machida stuffed five takedowns but of course on this night listen closely fellas, one this night take-downs counted heavily for the fighter with no money bet on him while his opponent had huge money bet on him. Round three isn't even worth discussing cause Machida won easily. Machida 30-27 in my book. Nothing less then 29-28. Wow if only Henderson could have fought this Machida instead of the one that ran from him all night. Even tho i hate to see guys losing money to these crooked fuking books, it is nice to see Machida chase someone the whole entire night and end up being the one screwed.Comment
