Media Bet the house on Poirier: The Costa Curse

[WoozyFailGuy]

Every card that Costa has been on outside of his own title fight, the reigning champion is defeated.
This has been shown to be 100% accurate.


UFC 298: Volkanovski loses to Topuria
UFC 278: Usman loses to Edwards
UFC 241: Cormier loses to Miocic
UFC 226: Miocic loses to Cormier

The craziest on of all is 217
UFC 217: Bisping loses to GSP
UFC 217: Garbrandt loses to Dillashaw
UFC 217: Joanna loses to Rose Namajunas

This is the only time that 3 champions have lost on the same card.

Even in Costa's debut at UFC 212, Aldo lost to Hollaway.
The even more interesting stat is that every single one of these champions not only lost their title, they were finished in their fights.

Dustin inside the distance is the lock of the century. Porier by submission is at +2200, Porier by KO/TKO is at +650.

unless islam is hurt or gets caught, islam should win

Will meander over to the casino and put $100 on Dustin inside the distance for shits and giggles over the weekend

Break a leg. I really hope you’re right.

That only applies if Costa actually fights.

 

[JohnMandick]

I bet on Dustin, but only because of the odds and I'm ok with losing it.

Note: I was high on Secret Juice at the time.

 

[ToTheMax]

There's at least a 50% chance Costa doesn't even fight on this card.

 

[Dana's Conscience]

Does the Costa curse override the 35+ stat? That's in play too.

 

[moosaev]

Costo won't even show up, it'll be Strickland against some rando MW'er.

 

[Substance Abuse]

Jokes on you, TS: Costa still hasn't signed to fight Strickland.

I see there was a severe flaw in my thesis.

You can't put the Miocic-Cormier reversal down to match ups!

To be fair, the source of that info is pretty dubious

 

[NoSmilez]

Porier doesn't have a good chance of winning. Islam is pretty solid in all areas of MMA. Maybe training in New Jersey for the end of his fight camp will bother him.

I would nut so hard if both Islam and Sean lose that night.
