Borg/smolka just very hard to predict, I like borg but he is just 23 and very green, limited striking skills and can sometimes get controlled on the ground while he waits to get his own reversal or better position at times throw in smolka and its gonna be a ground game war where anything can happen.

I like borg sub, smolka decision for now
 
Hopefully andrade stays on this card but its highly doubtful her calling out karate hottie on such short notice she takes that fight.

 


5.50 minute mark

Ronda says, nunes has to say she will take me out in r1 since we all know nunes gasses by r2 so she has no choice.
 
I forgot how bad Tate looked in that Nunes fight. It was almost like she didn't even want to be there.

Yea, cant remember who said it I think it might've been Leslie Smith, anyways, she said that Pennington didn't retire Mischa, Nunes did.

She hurt Tate enought to make her quit. Tate never quit before. Just rewatched the fight and I think she kills Ronda.
 
Yeah I'm on board with Nunes now too. +140 good enough for me. Also small stabs at Nunes rd 1 at +310 and rd 2 at +975.

I got 200 on her ML @ 2.40 and 20 on Nunes [email protected]. I think thats enough, so I dont wanna add Nunes R1 and the under 1.5 is 1.44 so thats waaay to low for me...
 
nunes stats, 5 round 1 finishes in past 7 fights

2 years ago we saw cat get outworked by nunes in r1, then took over on cardio alone in r2 and r3 stoppage. Nunes has improved in many areas, but her decision win on Valentina imo does not make her look good or good cardio wise since Val really offered no offence in that fight for 3 rounds, she got scared of nunes power in r1 and remained timid.

So really I see nunes cardio being ok for 1-2 rounds provided it stays more on the feet or if nunes remained in top control, from r3 the cardio advantage I reckon goes to ronda provided she is not to badly damaged.
 
Nunes NSC +149 and Nunes itd +174 should be given some thought compared to her ML. I would normally never recommend those plays since they are pretty close to her ML, but I don't really think Nunes' gas tank can last 5 rounds
 
I already have 4U on nunes. contemplating going all the way up to 7.5 maybe even 10. The last UFC fight of the year boys! In Nunes I trust!
 
Regarding Cruz vs Cody

I'm going to end up on Dom (either decision if it can get back to + odds or -5.5) but for sure won't be going as heavy as I initially thought I would. I watched all 4 parts of BJJScouts Dom break down last night for probably the 5th time, and he made a good point when going over the DJ fight about how successful proper bullrushing can be against Dom. I'm not saying thats whats going to happen, but I have to consider it a possibility when Cody has looked like the best pure boxer Cruz has ever fought and there is really no fights to look to for a gauge on how he'll perform here. Its a big ass question mark. I don't like risking serious money with big ass question marks involved (please no one mention the Sage disaster), especially when the knowns (prob best prospect at 135 who seems very hungry, best boxer Cruz has fought, ability to pressure, ability to play more technical when its called for as shown vs Briones) won't make it surprising if Cody shows in this fight he is capable of competing with Dom or even beating him.
 
Cody has excellent boxing combinations, catches so many guys off guard and he mixes it well with a heavy leg kicks.

Cody should really be landing the leg kick but they know cruz can level change and hit that well timed take down, otherwise I reckon cruz footwork, balance and head positioning will make it quite hard for cody to land his pure boxing skills. Feels like it works best with guys standing right in front of him.

I think I trust cruz chin and survival skills here, like the 1.5/2.5 overs on that fight, otherwise cruz decision maybe all hedged by cody ko prop.

The thing for Me with Dom is I cant trust a guy who's had that many injuries, is well into his 30s and is in one of the lightest weight classes where all the guys are extremely mobile and Dom's schtick is movement throughout 5 rounds. Incredibly enough Dom has come back pretty much flawlessly which is crazy but it's like a ticking time bomb on when that shit gets turned around since he clearly is on the back end of his career. GSP managed (barely with some controversial judging) to get out on top, who else has done it?

If this fight took place a few years back I'd feel super confident with a Dom DEC bet
 
Nunes is sick
