#107I never said it was good reffing. In fact, I pretty clearly stated that the whole fight was one big clusterpenetrate of poor reffing.
But to your point, Mario 100% could conceivably have thought "oh shoot, should've stopped the fight after that knee" about 2 seconds after the fact, which was too late into the barrage, and tried to give Travis every possible chance to not be TKOed. If he eventually gets KOed, Mario has no discretion. But if it's a grey zone stoppage where Travis is covering up and moving when warned, then he may lean on the side of letting it go.
Have you never heard of "make up calls"? NBA Officials are notorious for making poor calls on one end and then making another poor call on the other end to "even" it out.
This isn't outlandish at all. It's outlandish to not consider a ref being human, recognizing a mistake too late to do anything related to that foul but be lenient to the person who was fouled so they can remain in the fight as loosely as the rules can be interpreted by the official.Comment -

#110Not trying to flame. But I think it is ridiculous that MD is trying to say it should have been stopped. If a guy comes back and wins, no it shouldn't of been stopped. It very well could have, but there is no set guidelines as to when to stop a fight. 1 ref may of stopped it easily. Another may of not (didn't). That is MMA and everyone realizes this going into fights. It shouldn't be "oh well it should of been stopped". It should be "oh well the guy I bet on should have put him out in that situation, especially at HW". MD is a good capper, maybe the best here. But the excuses for losses gets nauseating. You don't have to win them all.Comment -

Saying that if a guy comes back and wins the fight shouldn't have been stopped, is wrong IMO. No one would have complained if Barry had stopped Kongo, or even if Maynard had stopped Edgar. There are probably dozens of stoppages during which if the fight hadn't been stopped, the loser had a good shot of coming back and winning.Comment -

#112I don't give excuses for my losses bro. Never have. If I think I was on the wrong side, I'll admit it. I don't think I was on the wrong side here. It's other people who have a problem with that opinion, I don't mind if people think Browne was the right side.

In this case Browne was blocking the majority of Overeem's punches and when the reff told him to move he did instantly, which shows that he was very much coherent at the time. If anything a seasoned striker such as Overeem shouldnt be making such rookie mistakes and punching himself out completly.Comment -

#114Demonata talks a big game here. Kind of funny how overeem is overrated after the fight, no mention of it before. Also kind of funny that since you felt the need to bring up other totally unrelated bets in the same event from MD to apparently ridicule him...here's one totally honest question:
Have you ever in your SBR history, actually posted bets on a UFC event where you actually ended up in profit?Comment -

#116I don't care what was the right side, as I'm not trying to act as if I know. The right side is the one that cashes. People bet Browne for the fact that Overeem is a cocky idiot with gas issues and an iffy chin. And that is pretty much what ended up happening. It may be wrong to say if a guy comes back then it should have never been stopped. But who are you to say when it should be stopped when there is no guideline to it? Not saying you can't have an opinion, I'm just saying you play up the "right side" angle after many losses. Overeem is the better striker. But he is also probably the weaker chinned and minded fighter. People that took Browne capped it like that.
I don't play up the "right side" angle, I rarely talk about if my wagers were the right side or not. I care about my losses a lot less than most others on SBR do. I had around 35 bets on the last card I think, losing on Overeem didn't kill my night. There were several bets that I thought to myself that I would not make again, and Overeem wasn't one of them. I'm a douche, sure, but I'm always honest about my wagers. If you want to think differently or think that I'm trying to justify a bad bet, that's fine, I don't mind.
Doesn't bother me.
Also, you're thinking of Gabe. I almost never talk to Luca.Comment -

#117He is a good capper. I don't want a piece. I just don't get when guys think they know when a fight should be stopped. How it should be scored. What is an illegal blow. And if they disagree with any of those aspect it is just "variance". MD is basically batting a 1000 if it weren't for variance. His edge is much greater than mine. But he still overrates it big time. Even the Uriah Hall fight he apologized for being wrong on the value...but had to add in that he had him winning. Even when he is dead wrong...he is sort of right. He is a good enough capper to not have to play that game. Sometimes you are just wrong, perhaps he feels too much interweb pressure after his nice run.Comment -

Finished down on my Twitter bets, and didn't do much better for the night myself. Pretty much broke even and only profited for the day because of boxing. I think I got screwed on that 'Reem bet, it should seriously have been stopped when he dropped Travis multiple times and Travis wasn't responding to his punches. I was definitely wrong about that Hall bet, though. Incredibly awful, probably the worst bet I've made all year.Comment -

#120Your value was way off and you admit it (how can't you when you say he should be -1200?). But in your opinion your "worst bet of the year" still should have cashed if you were judging. That is my point. It is a fair opinion as it was a close fight to call. You just seem to use backhanded humbleness often.Comment -

#123Did you even read the posts? I called it a semi-illegal knee, and said that it appeared to hit Browne's arms, and then when the gif was posted I said that it looked blatant at that speed and angle, and that it ripped through Travis' guard. IE: it did hit his arms, it just went straight through them. Nice try though bro. Tell me more about how Pettis can stop Bendo's takedowns because he's beaten Bendo before.
Never said him stopping the takedowns was going to be the most important part of the fight. You are just reaching now brah.Neither of us are going to agree.
Just bugs me that seems like you don't respect Pettis. Good Luck with your bets and if I offended you at all I'm sorry.

You insult fighters, constantly brag about your crazy capping skills (which often seem to be pretty average) and have a weird paranoid delusion that everyone is out to get you and insult your ability to pick winnaz etc. When the truth is people don't really give a penetrate, it's just fun to throw an insult / criticism your way and watching you go on a tirade about proving your record and throwing numbers around no one reads anyway.
Plus around gamblers, touting like you do is a pretty slimy way to make money. I personally have no problem with it, if you can make money all the more power to you. Get yo hustle on. But you just present your self in such a distasteful light that it's an easy think to make fun of, especially when you loose on your first paid events. And when you blame the fighters EVERY single time you lose a bet, never ever admitting you might have capped it wrong.
So while your delusions is funny and all, you might want to dial it down a couple of notches if you don't want to be constantly trolled. Personally don't really have a problem with you, but it's getting kind of pathetic to witness.
