UFC Fight Night: Whittaker vs. Brunson (November 26th, 2016, Melbourne Australia)

[TPowell]

Brunson had a shot. He had Whittaker shelled but kept wildly swinging instead of taking his time and landing a bunch of nice short precise blows

one of the best fights in a long time! neither guy was a pussy and danced for 15 minutes

[THE_LOCKSMITH]

that main event bailed out and awful main card

that main event bailed out and awful main card

very true

[Hugo de Naranja]

Got absolutely wrecked on this event. Will post full results tomorrow but it looks like about a 30u loss. Obviously frustruating but these things happen sometimes. Back to the drawing board!

Definitely an exciting fight even though I was on the wrong side of it.

[firekillex]

may play the under here, dont love brunsons striking defense.... whittaker much more technical but not as explosive, if he can survive the first round and stop some of the clinch/ takedowns i could see him getting the KO here should be a barnburner of a fight though

That is my opinion too. The not going the distance prop is only like -210. Seems too easy....

yup both hit GJ

goodmorning

It takes too much unnecessary double space + the page load slower.

Lost this event and was never up, was battling but just missed the big bets all night long.... It happens... This Aussie card was tricky from the very start.. Camozzi losing was a killer for me along with Brunson getting dropped..

Congrats to all the Whittiker backers.. Yep Brunson gassed and he was done.

Jibbyyyy

[JIBBBY]

The dogs were barking on this fight card

You called it again Gun with the main event dog trend hit.. Ya left me scratching my head once again!!

I do believe in trends and history does have a funny way of repeating itself, perhaps I should pay a little more attention to this main event dog trend theory of yours..

Congrats Gunny you made a few of us look stupid on this thread.. Me being one of them for calling you out on this from the very start..

[UncleChael]

I'll play the Reaper in his hometown, ya'll nuts. When Whittaker comes out to Roy Jones Jr. you'll know.

I think Whittaker takes Brunson on feet cause hes better striker and can stop the takedown. I think when Brunson gets tired, the fight becomes harder for Brunson.. we'll see my thoughts. I like Whittaker.

Let's go Whittaker. Roy Jones Jr.

Even I couldn't spoil Whittaker with the way I've been missing main events.

[bjpenn85]

Whittaker was easy if you did som tape studying. The real risk was the first round TKO as brunson gasses badly from round 2 and out. Which basically meant that whittaker who already had better hands could either coast by outlanding brunson for 3-4 rounds or get the stoppage. My hedge for brunson dec was badly misplaced. He could only win in the first round.

[bjpenn85]

Not to sound as jesus christ or josh knows, but it was quite obvious actually. Not often these days im actually correct.

[JIBBBY]

I was pretty drunk at the time and losing but didn't Brunson rock Whittaker in that 1st round and almost put him out? That's how close that fight really was if I'm not mistaken... Brunson gassed and was done after the 1st round though.. One round fighter...

[Sanity Check]

Still no odds available for Demetrious Johnson vs Tim Elliott on december 3rd.

I hope this means they're having trouble keeping up with all the sports events and there are some good opportunities.

[GunShard]

A lot of "experts" think Whittaker is going to win this. Interesting. They keep mentioning that Brunson keeps his chin up high and is susceptible to getting caught by a high level striker like Whittaker. I don't see it. I think Brunson is too quick to get caught by Whittaker. But I am a little hesistant to put a bet down on Brunson since I have lost money betting on the fan favorite before.

Many bettors had a false perception of Brunson since we now know he has a low fight IQ.
I'm one of those experts that were on Whittaker. Gotta pick the more technical fighter.
