Ha oh, awesome. I used to live, sleep, and breath MMA, but really lost track the last couple years. I don't know when shit is anymore until my buddy posts his bets.

[Smoke]

What's the play?

[reigle9]

Prob RDA after this weekend. Hard to imagine his line keeps getting better.

[jjgold]

Sasha who you on?

[Russian Rocket]

Sasha who you on?

RDA...haven't locked my bet yet...but I'll be taking him

[JIBBBY]

If you're on RDA just wait to place til right before fight time.. If you're McGregor you better jump on it now if you haven't already..

McGregor odds going up and will continue to do so just because of his hype train... Last minute betting will probably move the line to -200 or more for McMouth..

[The Kraken]

RDA is the more complete fighter and should be the fav to win this fight

But books have to adjust to volume

I've been watching this for a while, I was curious to see if Vegas would take a position, it appears as if they're not and they're just trying to balance action right now

This was conventional thinking his last two fights, and didn't work out that way. It especially isn't going to this fight with him going up and not being better in any area.

[JoshKnows46]

There's no more hype train, he is champion, kod nearly everyone in the round he said he would, and beat the only champion at his weight class in 13 seconds, this isn't a hype train, this is reality boys, time to wake up to this money. I've been on both these guys for a long time, but this is a Absolutly terrible matchup for rda, he will be starched in under a round. The real fight for mcgregor will come with El cucuy, or kabib... don't waste your money on rda

[reigle9]

I'll give you a $10,000 if you can explain how this is a terrible match-up for rda. I'll give you 10 bucks if you even know what the term "match-up" even means.

The line will continue to rise up till fight time, it would go back down because of how mcgregor looked at weignins ins, he really has to kill himself to get to that weight class, it's really unfair to the featherweights he can make that class. He will be bigger than rda at this weignins in, and look much better than he does at featherweight, so jibby is correct in saying it will continue to rise.

all of ireland will be on mcgregor, line has already moved from plus money, to -115 on mcgregor, rda is horribly underrated, i agree line was set based on mcgregor being overvauled from the oddsmakers point of view, but based on the match-up and connors popularity the oddsmakers didnt hit the mark to draw even action, and in my personal opinion, they still havent caught up to how masterful he is in the stand-up, and the mental edge he creates in his fights, i do believe rda wil have confidents in his chin and his striking and why shouldnt he as his chin and striking and pressure style has served him well, but mcgregor hits like a lightheavy weight, he's pin point accurate ala anderson silva, he has brutal body kicks, perfect counter striking style vs rdas style, and styles make match-ups, the linemakers still havent caught up, even though from their point of view they overvalued the line of a smaller guy coming up, mendes has better wrestling then rda, and connor had his worse training camp for that fight, he was dehydrated, he is now fighting at his correct weight class, and rda doesn;t have a double leg takedown like mendes, he needs to get in close and clinch connor has the reach and he will have to work through that...the same gameplan that worked against pettis, is a horrible gameplan against mcgregor, pettis needs space to strike, he needs a guy to respect his striking, connor doesn't he thrives on the counters, he moves forward in a attempt to force the other guy to throw first, and hit them with there momentum going forward, he wont need to goat rda much, he will give mcgregor what he wants, mcgrgeor picked the perfect time to fight rda, becuase he believes his striking is way to win fights now, rda will not find it as easy to take down a conor on steak and potatoes as the better natural wrestler found out against a dehydrated mcgrgeor...RDA will get knocked out in this fight, keep a open mind to this fight, and dont go to big on rda, i have connor favored in this batte of styles, styles make fights, and this is a easier fight for connor than edgar is. I personally see Mcgregor cleaning out the lightweight divison, exept for maybe tony ferguson would be a intresting fight, he would match connors reach and kabib, and gsp is in talks to come back to fight mcgregor, i think that would be a bad match-up for mcgregor...i was on rda his last 4 fights, those were good stylistic matches for him, this is not.. pettis always loses to rda becuase of how the pressure affects what he wants to do, cerrone is always a slow starter, so while i cashed in on rda, i dont place him as the best in the divison, tony and kabib can both beat rda, and those are also the only two guys in the division i'd give a chance against mcgregor, i'd have tony at even money, and i'd have kabib favored, rda has never fought a killer like this and i believe he will try to fight him like he fought pettis, but pettis is all offense, though mcgrgeor looks like he's always moving forward he is defensive by nature in his striking attack, he is always looking for a excape and and a mistake to captilze on, and he uses the front kick to keep a distance and always seem offensive, throws spinning kicks that are slow sometimes just to get his opp to move forward, not really to land, he is a absolute genuis iside the octagon, so you would be mindful to keep that in mind, mcgrgeor already knows the round and how he will finish rda, while rda will be just trying to figure out connor mid way throught the first round, when he relizes what worked before for him, no longer works against this opp, that pressure style of striking isn't working against this guy he's bulling me now, now he starts to to go for takedowns out of desperation, and then its over before rda knows what happen, people keep making excuses for why mcgregor is winning, but they aren't watching how he's winning, he mentally fuks his opp before and during the fight, even when he gets hit with something dude has a poker face and keeps coming forward, if you are not mentally strong he wil break you in there....i believe edgar, tony, kabib, and gsp are all more mentally strong than rda, and are more likey to stick with a set gameplan, and i'm not even sure rda relizes what that gameplan is yet, till he's actually in there with mcgregor.

[JoshKnows46]

alverez proved that beating pettis against the cage and taking him down are not impressive, cowboys carrer proves that beating him in the 1st round isn't impressive becuase he is a slow starter...i was on rda in both those fights, plus money against pettis, and layed the juice in cowboy fight, i was also on alverez at +400 in his fight with pettis, all posted here....what you percieve at strengths are not strengths, mcgregor defended 4 of mendes 7 takedowns with a torn mcl and acl, a injury that he delt with all camp, mendes is a better wrestler than rda.

[JoshKnows46]

what i bet...posted weeks ago...

Mcgregor +105 risking $500
Mcgregor +100 risking $1000
Mcgregor -105 risking $2625

So you gonna send my 10,000 in one lump sum, or you want to make payments?

All of Ireland will be on McGregor, line has already moved from plus money to -115 on McGregor. RDA is horribly underrated and I agree the line was set based on McGregor being overvalued from the oddsmakers point of view but based on the match-up and Connors popularity, the oddsmakers didn't hit the mark to draw even action. In my personal opinion, they still havent caught up to how masterful he is in the stand-up and the mental edge he creates in his fights.

I do believe RDA wil have confidence in his chin and his striking and why shouldnt he as his chin and striking and pressure style have served him well, but McGregor hits like a light heavyweight and he's got pin point accurate ala Anderson Silva, he has brutal body kicks, perfect counter striking style vs RDA's style, and styles make match-ups.

The linemakers still havent caught up even though from their point of view they overvalued the line of a smaller guy coming up, Mendes has better wrestling then RDA and Connor had his worse training camp for that fight as he was dehydrated.

McGregor is now fighting at his correct weight class and RDA doesn't have a double leg takedown like Mendes, he needs to get in close and clinch. Connor has the reach and RDA will have to work through that, the same gameplan that worked against Pettis is a horrible gameplan against McGregor. Pettis needs space to strike, he needs a guy to respect his striking, Connor doesn't, he thrives on the counters, he moves forward in an attempt to force the other guy to throw first and then hits them with there momentum going forward, he won't need to goat RDA much, he will give McGregor what he wants.

McGregor picked the perfect time to fight RDA becuase he believes his striking is the way to win fights now and RDA will not find it as easy to take down a Connor on steak and potatoes as the better natural wrestler found out against a dehydrated McGregor...

RDA will get knocked out in this fight. Keep an open mind to this fight and don't go to big on RDA. I have Connor favored in this battle of styles, styles make fights and this is an easier fight for Connor than Edgar would be.

I personally see Mcgregor cleaning out the lightweight divison, except for maybe Tony Ferguson and that would be a intresting fight. Ferguson would match Connors reach and kabib, and GSP is in talks to come back to fight McGregor. I think that would be a bad match-up for McGregor.

I was on RDA his last 4 fights and those were good stylistic matches for him, this one is not. Pettis always loses to RDA because of how the pressure affects what he wants to do, Cerrone is always a slow starter, so while i cashed in on RDA, I don't place him as the best in the divison. Tony and Kabib can both beat RDA, and those are also the only two guys in the division i'd give a chance against McGregor, i'd have Tony at even money and Kabib favored. RDA has never fought a killer like this and I believe he will try to fight him like he fought Pettis, but Pettis is all offense. McGregor looks like he's always moving forward but he is defensive by nature in his striking attack and is always looking for an escape or a mistake to capitalize on, plus, he uses the front kick to keep a distance and always seem offensive, throws spinning kicks that are slow sometimes just to get his opponent to move forward, not really to land.

McGregor is an absolute genius inside the octagon, so be mindful to keep that in mind, McGrgeor already knows the round and how he will finish RDA, while RDA will be just trying to figure out Connor mid way through the first round, when he relizes what worked before for him, no longer works against this opp, that pressure style of striking isn't working against this guy he's bulling me now, now he starts to to go for takedowns out of desperation, and then its over before rda knows what happen, people keep making excuses for why mcgregor is winning, but they aren't watching how he's winning, he mentally fuks his opp before and during the fight, even when he gets hit with something dude has a poker face and keeps coming forward, if you are not mentally strong he wil break you in there....i believe edgar, tony, kabib, and gsp are all more mentally strong than rda, and are more likey to stick with a set gameplan, and i'm not even sure rda relizes what that gameplan is yet, till he's actually in there with mcgregor.

I did my best to make this more decipherable. It was incredibly labor intensive and I eventually had to just give up somewhere around the last paragraph. Many sentences I couldn't even figure out how to fix

I did my best to make this more legible. It was actually incredibly hard and I eventually gave up somewhere in the last paragraph. I couldn't even figure out how to fix it

thank you, i just rambled along, i'm not big on correct punctiation and grammer, i'm just big on getting this money. LOL my brain doesn't focus on things that are useless to me, grammer is beneath me.

[The Kraken]

It's fine, I did it as much for me as anyone else, I just wanted to know what you were trying to convey. It's hard for me to read one long paragraph, so initially I just wanted to segment it out. Then I realized it's a slow Saturday for me and I had nothing else to do, so I just kept going.



And to be non-biased and fair, I just went back and fixed my own post
