    It always makes me feel better about my bets when I see, we're on the same fighter. How do you decide when to place your bets? As an example, on a fighter that's going to be your biggest bet of the card. The is moving in your favor or hasn't changed. Do you bet ahead or wait for weigh-ins?

    Usually well before weigh-ins, especially if I think the line will move against me.

    I can't stand the Khabib nut huggers. Hugo do you see Makhachev or Umar getting their ass kicked in the next year or so?

    I'm pretty high on Makhachev, lower on Umar though. Mak is very talented while Umar is living off the Nurmagomedov name a bit more.

    If they can't do a Holloway vs Volkanowski 3, I hope they set up a match with Max & Zabit, so Max can whip Khabib's boy like he did to Kattar.

    Is Zabit Khabib's boy? I'm not aware of it if so.

    I don't understand all the Khabib haters. I guess when you're at the top of the mountain, you will have your fair share of them.

    With Chimaev out again, Covington vs. Edwards is rumored to headline the March 13th card.

    Gillespie vs. Riddell booked for the March 30th card (Holland vs. Brunson). I love that matchup!

    Max would get wrecked by Zabit

    I don't know about that...... What would Zabits path to victory be? Zabit has shown some weak cardio before and was fading late in the 2nd round in both, the Kattar and Stephens fight. How he is going to handle a 5 round fight with someone of Holloways degree? However, Zabit has mentioned that he has been working on and improving his cardio drastically, so we shall see.

    I expect Jamie Mullarkey to be out of his scheduled bout with Khama Worthy. Mullarkey has trained with Volkanovski recently.

    If they're going to pull him for protocols they should do it right away. Maybe they could book Morales vs. Worthy.

    Sad to say this but word on the street was that Sean Brady was gonna go for the submission last fight and he got it at plus 400. Lots of us had it. I was just to busy to post it and actually caught the very end of the fight because i was out. reason i am saying this April tenth little brother Daukas fights this undefeated Russian i believe. I am good friends with one of his training partners. This looks like it is going to be a great fight. This Russian looks like a killer and Kyle is solid all the way around. I was leaning to the Russian and told my buddy that Kyle better be ready for this kid. Kyles opinion is this. He said he should have no problem with this Russian because of the size advantage. He say’s his coach is the same exact size and he has been rolling with him for years. I honestly think this will be fight of the night. Unfortunately I thought Santos/Alessandra Rakic would be fight of the night too.

    Think they should go another route personally...Ferreira gets no favorable matchups and this is NOT a great one for Gillespie either

    Costa vs Vettori on October 3rd. Two of the biggest meatheads in the UFC - should be fun
    Makhachev vs dos Anjos October 30th - I don't think it will be a good night for dos Anjos

    So i told Sabatini stop being a tough guy when you get kicked in the nuts (first 15 seconds of the fight)and take your time coming back and fuk the fans booing cause when they see the replay they grab their nuts too. He said he had to go to the hospital. His balls swelled up and he was black and blue all over. Just shows ya those cups work but they are not 100 percent.

    Love the Sean Brady Chiesa matchup. I think Brady steam rolls him but i am terrible predicting Chiesa fights. Chiesa big game is getting the takedown. Good luck with that with Brady.

    Gavin Tucker Pat Sabatini Nov 20th Apex Center Vegas. Same card as Sean Brady Michael Chiesa. Once again Brady an Sabatini on the same card. Hopefully this one pans out

    I like them both. I think Pat has a lot better chance here than his last fight. Sean I see winning this but I seem to be wrong on Chiesa fights. I cant see how Brady loses. Also Chris Daukaus is fighting the black beast middle of December. I wanna go (Pat an Sean)but it is in apex center. They wouldn’t let Pats dad and mom in last fight. His dad is working hard to get in this time. I told him if he can get me in I will go. I still might go. Pats dad told me they were huddled in the Belagio watching it on cell phones lol.

    Dan Hooker vs Islam Makhachev UFC 267 in Abu Dhabi 10/30
    I think this is a much better matchup than RDA and I would love to see Hooker win but I'm not putting any $ on it. I hope the UFC gave Hooker a huge bonus for taking this fight, the poor Kiwi doesn't even know when and if he will be able to get back to his home now.
