General MMA Discussion & Future Lines - May, 2017

OT but any Brits here had any Vegas experience where they have tried to hold a % of your winnings for tax reasons? Apparently you can fill out paperwork there and then to prove you live in UK and pay tax in the UK so you walk away with your winnings tax free. Apparently some casinos are more helpful than others tho with the paperwork. Anyone have any experience with this?

Erm...I think if you knew the saga you wouldn't say that. Santos is a joke.

  1. First fight happened, April 2015. Eyepoke no contest.
  2. ONE tried to make the rematch. Santos turned down June and July dates citing his eye.
  3. Santos turned down a September date for unknown reason.
  4. At the same time he was turning down the rematch, Santos was asking for a fight in Titan FC. Askren has a screenshot verifying this.
  5. The rematch was rescheduled for November:
  • Fight was scheduled at 170.
  • Santos weighed in at 174.5
  • Santos was given unlimited time to make 170, but only got down to 172.
  • ONE/Askren/Santos worked out a deal whereby the fight would proceed as a non-title affair if Santos could weigh in at 185 lbs. at 1PM on fight day. All sides agreed.
  • Santos later decided he could not stay below 185, so the Askren side offered to raise the limit to 190. Santos side accepted the new offer.
  • On morning of fight day, Askren and his team watched Santos eat a 90 minute breakfast with juice and multiple plates of food.
  • A few hours later, Santos's team decided to take Santos to the hospital without informing ONE. Santos was requesting an IV.
  • (According to Askren) all of Santos's tests came back normal and the doctor determined no IV was needed.
  • The second weigh-in occurred at 1 PM and Santos weighed 193.5.
  • Santos was given another opportunity to make the weight. He refused to try.
  • ONE President Victor Cui scrapped the fight
 
ONE has had a really hard time finding opponents for Askren. Everyone is terrified to fight him. Askren wants to fight 4x a year minimum but he's not even coming close. You can see why he would be reluctant to sign up to fight a bum like Santos, all the training and buildup while risking the fight falling through again.
 
For anyone put off of bettin.gs by them not offering American odds format, I contacted them and they say they'll be adding it in the very near future
 
Bovada has Askren at -5000 now. Surely the biggest favorite in MMA history?
 
I gotta play the guy Askren is facing at 10.00 0.1U, no one should be this favoured...

Holy balls, that Santos fight.

Sucks that Tanaka got cut. He's a beast and all 3 of his UFC losses could easily have gone to him.

Also who is Alex Enlund? He never fought in the UFC and yet...the UFC just cut him.

He was supposed to fight Martin Buschkamp on a euro show last year but got injured last min and fight was cancelled. Solid fighter, weird they just cut him.
