    Brunson wins most of the time with his speed......in a flash KO....if he out decisions the point master I will be VERY surprised.....this is the first guy with a speed advantage though---will be interesting.....he was +150.....people would bite

    andre is better everywhere + debuting fighter theory (the always loses) + even though mars isnt really that good, andre has cardio issues, except in one fight, it therefor hard to lay that bet imo. Can you get the same odds, whitout those issues in aother matchups, yes you can

    Cerrone looked all but washed up a few fights ago...Al is just hitting his stride and Cerrone on tail end of career, Cerrone also looked ghastly with the weight cut and Al looked stronger than usual...give me Raging Al here

    Iaquinta vs Cerrone is a 5 rounder and Raging al will bring the pressure for all 5 rounds. He's an effective counter puncher, tough, gritty and he just beat a Bangkok ready Kevin Lee. They also have a shared opponent in Masvidal who TKO'd cowboy and dropped a decision to Al. That said, Cowboy has looked fantastic in his last two fights, but I don't think he'll have a chance to win outside of the first two rounds.

    1 U on Raging Al.


    Brad Katona is worth a shot here at +135. He's 13-0 including exhibitions and amateur, and the guys he fought aren't complete slackers (one of his TUF opponents is now 11-0 pro and 2-0 in the UFC). He has decent jiu jitsu off his back and Merab is going to take him down and not do a lot of damage. If you wanna see a bizarre ending, check out simon vs Merab.

    1 U on Katona
    Good luck to ya!

    Imagine Elias Theodorou and Alan Jouban as a tag team in pro wrestling.

    That would be hilarious.

    Luke Rockhold could join them.

    Demi Lovato could be their manager.

    Weight cut may play a factor here at 155, but I'll ride with Cowboy here. He's 36 but he's also just stopped his last two opponents Hernandez 26, and Perry 27 his past 2 fights....I don't necessarily think that's called slowing down. With a win and a impressive finish over Al, could warrant a title shot consideration for the winner of the Khabib/Poirier fight in September....or maybe it will pair him up against Gaethje. Maybe Al wins and none of this happens.

    I hit a pretty big one with Bhullar there, feeling pretty fortunate I could see the argument the other way

    Prepolec noticed Nordine Taleb slowed down in round 2 of his last fight and is attacking the body hoping Taleb will slow down, here.

    Don't quote me. I haven't begun capping this event, yet.

    I'll take that as 1 for 2.

    Vince Morales should have been the betting favorite for this fight with Aiemann Zahabi the dog.

    Wanted to bet Chiasson Decision (+315) but didn't pull the trigger quick enough. We'll see if I regret that.
