Feel bad for you buddy but it would have been very easy to hedge, if you put 2g's on big foot you would be looking pretty right now. Live and learn, next time if you get one of these crazy parlays i'm sure you will profit.

That's gotta hurt.
I honestly think Fedor would have took the 3rd round. He was wobbled for sure, but Silva was gassed out.
Glad I got to see Fedor in person once before he retired too.

thanks, yeah I had thought of it but only put $10 on it, again not nearly enough. I thought that in this tournament format a draw would screw everything up for the promotion and that it was even less likely for this fight than most. Then, when Fedor lost the second round 10-8, I suddenly feared that he would have a miraculous comeback in round 3 and that the judges would score it a 28-28 draw. Could have happened!
I think all the judges should have had it 10-8 Big Foot in the second round but if I remember right apparently only one judge had 10-8 and the other two had 10-9.

True. Nothing surprising when it comes to MMA judges. Fedor's my favorite fighter but if that wasn't a 10-8 round I don't know what is.

This is correct. Apparantly 2 of the judges gave the first round to Fedor. If the judge scoring the first round Silva was the one that gave the 10-8 it was pretty much pointless. Going into the third round it still would have been anyones fight.
