Bet you have some type of hedge going on here.

How are y'all watching this live? Normally I use vipbox or firstrow, but neither has streams up for UFC today.

Turn on FS1 now and you can watch.. Some of us have UFC Fight Pass... I'm surprised VIPBOX didn't work though as I didn't check.. That's usually as solid as they come.. The HD links..

Need Jussier here.. Please!!!! By sub would be nice too..

**Thrilla** · 02-10-18, 08:06 PM

They let the White fighter win. F*cking judges. Significant strikes 62 - 81.

Supremacist scum!

**Shagdogy** · 02-10-18, 08:07 PM

I was torn over this one... went back and forth. Finally I decided Ben can KO or win decision, but Formiga likely only wins with a finish. I don't think he controls back long enough to win a decision and doesn't finish. So I'm on Ben here at +200 in a parlay with Volkanovski. Small play. We'll see if Ben can show what everyone has been talking about. Needs to prioritize staying on the feet.

**BIGDAY** · 02-10-18, 08:09 PM

Ben an easy call here tonight.

**BIGDAY** · 02-10-18, 08:10 PM

That transition to mount though. Formiga just soooo tight on the mat.

Thanks but I live in Australia. Don't have access to it. It's not that vipbox doesn't work, but that they have no actual streams up for it.

**BIGDAY** · 02-10-18, 08:19 PM

Interested to see how that 2nd round graded

**JIBBBY** · 02-10-18, 08:20 PM

I got Juice up 2 rounds even with the eye poke

.. I'll take him by decision even.. Need the win here, come on Jussier in the 3rd.

**JIBBBY** · 02-10-18, 08:22 PM

Yep

... Thank you sub at +400

**BIGDAY** · 02-10-18, 08:22 PM

**Hugo de Naranja** · 02-10-18, 08:23 PM

Solid finish from Formiga there

Good hit Jibs

**Shagdogy** · 02-10-18, 08:23 PM

I don't think Ben Nguyen showed up at all. Damn. He didn't even clearly win the striking.

**turbozed** · 02-10-18, 08:24 PM

Formiga gifts SUB bettors with the RNC. He could've just thrown a few punches instead lol

**Kermit** · 02-10-18, 08:24 PM

Nice!

He was the larger fighter too. I was worried for bit there..

The best value on this card is Jussier Formiga at -130. Sure, Ben Nguyen may be improved, but Formiga is on another level grappling. Watch his fight with Dustin Ortiz. Ortiz is a physically strong dude with great TDD. Nguyen's impressive victory over Tim Elliot was more of Elliot being an awkward fighter who leaves himself open. Formiga will be much tighter in terms of his defense. Take Formiga and the "Fight Does Not Go Distance" at +100. This one doesn't lose.

Formiga -130
Fight Does Not Go Distance +100

Not the way I envisioned it but still a double win none the less 😉

Fawken Asians.

Nice Ken. Jussier had the advantage on the ground clearly but no one including me expecting a spinner to land though and start it all off.. It happens.. Good win!!!
