Your benevolence god Hugo, but why the fight delay for the main card???? WHY!?!

Also why not 5Dimes be offering odds on next 2 Hurricanes hitting Texas, I mean I'm from there but c'mon, I gotta bet on any/every thing! Gimmie odds under -200 for Emra and I'll bet da farm + Chicken coop!!!

Shit. Too wasted. SPelling aborted.

What was that about Volkov having no ways to win?

**Demonata** · 09-02-17, 04:05 PM

Good job volkov!!!!!

I saw that but I just don't see Volkov winning any other way then by KO in a 5 round fight with Struve.. Winning by decision is a possibility but I'm not betting on it.. Don't think either have the grit or tank to make it the distance.. Volkov does have some power.. Struve has been dropped before..

Already locked and loaded.. No turning back now.. Hoping one of these stick..

Hit and miss all night but hit the big plays and hedges like this above.. .. Small win on the event in the end but I'll take it.. I was absent with this event on SBR and was too tired this morning to post pending and stay engaged.. I'm on the west coast..

Good live bet Hugo!!.. I fell asleep llterally.. Lol...

**Rich Benjamins** · 09-02-17, 06:08 PM

Volkov had great combos. Saw a lot of improvement, he looked sharper than usual. He could be a contender.

**Rich Benjamins** · 09-02-17, 06:08 PM

How about Volkov vs Ngannou? Could be interesting.

Ngannou knocks his head off.. Struve is a goof and doesn't have big power. Volkov should have won this fight today if it stayed standing which it did...

Volkov gets lit up like a Christmas tree against Ngannou in my opinion though..

Yea I agree. It still would be an interesting fight. Who knows, maybe Volkov would do better than we'd think.

.. Head kick and Holbrook couldn't get the take down.. Not good

Gouti tougher and hit harder.. Could take a better punch too.. Only a matter of time.. Picked that fight wrong for sure..

I've noticed the dog has hit, in the 1st fight of the night, at a very high percentage over the last 5 or so UFC cards.

Let's see if that trend holds true in the future.

Is that right? I remember last year there was a string of first fight dog hits as well.. Maybe that's a trend worth keeping track of..

**Sanity Check** · 09-02-17, 09:20 PM

I remember Thibault Gouti and Gray Maynard hitting big as dogs. Can't recall if a lot of dogs hit in Dana White's contender series.

That august layoff for Mayweather vs McGregor might have hit me harder than expected. lol

A lot of dogs did hit in the DWCS. But the first fight dog hitting I'm sure is just a coincidence. I can't think of any logical reason why that would be a trend.

Rinaldi vs Herrera was the first fight of UFC FN 114. Rinaldi was the favorite and won.

If you can put someone behind the 8 ball with a loss in the first game.

Sometimes you can make them emotional and they'll start chasing bad plays.

That's the potential house advantage of arranging a surprise underdog hit in the first fight of the night.

I remember Ketlen Vieira, Gray Maynard, Thibault Gouti and a few others although in hindsight its not as common as I was thinking it might be. August and the Conor vs Floyd sideshow screwed with my sense of time.

Good luck everyone. Thought about playing Holbrook and still thinking about Struve. This is it for now though.

Card Total: 3-3, +1.54u

YTD: 82-70, +20.85u

This card is the epitome of my MMA betting. I do well on favs and I stink at picking dogs. Simple as that.

At least I laid off Holbrook and Struve!

I bet on Green but thought Khabilov won. I believe that you can't reward fighters who back up and stall. And that's what Green was doing for most of the second half of the fight. You gotta reward the fighter who comes forward and shows initiative. Otherwise the fight will be a staring contest.
