Fighters who are betting disasters

[Spath]

Everyone, except Jon Jones

Nah, I’ve bet against Jon a couple of times and lost both.

He’s a betting disaster because I can’t bet against anyone who tries to punch him in his face

 

[Juan Bombadil]

Good fighters with bad chins

 

[krelianx]

Well, Pettis and Cain must have made people lose quite a bit of money I imagine.

 

[Th3Sav4ge]

mirsad bektic imo. odds makers love him. hes always the favorite. it was only slight but i had a feeling ige would beat him.

Anyone I didn't mention?

 

[Willek]

Cody Garbrandt looks good until he's unconscious.

 

[AimedWithV]

Well, Pettis and Cain must have made people lose quite a bit of money I imagine.

Pettis:
-225 Bartimus
-240 Guida
-500 RDA
-365 Alvarez (could go either way honestly, I scored a draw)
-180 Edson
-125 Nate
Yeah, he belongs

Cain:
-140 JDS 1
-500 Werdum
-200 Ngannou.
But come on, just three losses...

 

[AimedWithV]

mirsad bektic imo. odds makers love him. hes always the favorite. it was only slight but i had a feeling ige would beat him.

Bektic:
-750 Elkins (well, that was big Hail Mary)
-170 Emmett
-115 Ige, very close

Not sure I'd add him...

 

[VolkHan]

Sara McMann (5 losses):

-185 Miesha Tate
-300 Amanda Nunes
-220 Ketlen Vieira
-180 Marion Reneau

 

[AimedWithV]

Cody Garbrandt looks good until he's unconscious.

Cody:
-220 TJ 1
Even TJ 2
-170 Munhoz
Funny thing is he's -145 vs Assuncao, and that's because people don't understand how Assuncao fights. He wins decisions, but he packs heavy heavy counter punch.

On the other hand, Cody was +170 vs Almeida and +180 vs Cruz...

 

[AimedWithV]

Sara McMann (5 losses):

-185 Miesha Tate
-300 Amanda Nunes
-220 Ketlen Vieira
-180 Marion Reneau

Nicccceeeee...I also appreciate doing a dirty work for me!

 

[Th3Sav4ge]

Bektic:
-750 Elkins (well, that was big Hail Mary)
-170 Emmett
-115 Ige, very close

Not sure I'd add him...

maybe too soon. hes just the favorite in every fight

 

[AimedWithV]

maybe too soon. hes just the favorite in every fight

He's a very athletic and well-rounded fighter. Not that it's enough to be on top of this very competitive echelon, but it definitely impresses the bookies

i agree athletically hes a beast. but he outsmarts himself when his opponent dosnt fold

Thank you for reminding me why I never gamble on MMA.

 

[Th3Sav4ge]

Thank you for reminding me why I never gamble on MMA.

me and my neighbor had a decent run, went like 7-2 with the 2 bad bets being less than 50 bucks. then it all went to shit. from dqs, to horrible performances to flat out getting KO-ed in 1. so many variables.

[BabyBlue_Bomber]

I always think of guys like who run hot and cold scary to bet on...

They look absolutely amazing one fight, then like absolute trash the next fight...

Guys like Woodley, Rory MacDonald, Overeem, Pettis, etc.

 

[PurpleStorm]

Hey @AimedWithV good thread bud. Can you do Rockhold?
