UFC 223 pbp/discussion

R1: JJ (I thought JJ landed more volume, but not a big difference. Rose ended the round with 2 nice punches when they flurried)
R2: Rose (semi clear, definitely not JJ's round)
R3: JJ (Rose was inactive this round, while JJ landed a lot of leg kicks)
R4: JJ? (Close round since both ladies weren't as active when compared to previous rounds. Either the judges like the leg kicks landed during the last 1.5 minutes of the round by JJ, or they like Rose's head strikes that landed during the last 1 minute of the round.)
R5: Rose (Rose started the first 2 minutes off landed some hard head strikes, while JJ started landing light punches and leg kicks during the next 2 minutes. Last 1 minute of the round was close.)

I think it's a split-decision.
I leaned toward Joanna in terms of who won. 49-46 across the board is a bad decision, imo.

Sucks for Joanna.
 
+8.5u on Rose decision, will be up 24u~ with Khabib/Iaquinta over 1.5 rounds, got 5u on it
 
If you are baffled by this decision you must read the rule book or something...
Over +20u for me this fight...

Look at the numbers then look at JJ's face.... everyone in here knows who won.... keep convincing yourself
 
Prop bets still alive

1 Fight ends in dec+895

0 Fights end in sub+760

Please for the love of everything let the main event end in a decision
 
Nice!

Didn't think I'd win that (when i bet it) but odds seemed a bit off. Rose Dec +625 cashes.

Along with Gruetz KO that's two very nice prop cashes tonight.

With most of my action voided I will take a profitable night on a card I'm not even bothering to watch.
 
Ths last fight is a lock for me. Got Khabb in various forms to close parlays, Iaquntas ML, KO, RD 1,2 and 3 in singles.

Dare I say,

EASY MONEY!
 
Okay, 3u o1.5 +125 and 2u o1.5 +110
0.2u each on Iaquinta r1/r2 +2200/+2200
0.2u/0.15u on Khabib r4/r5 +1050/+2000
 
few peanuts on Iaquinta R1 +2200 dont really care for this fight but would be hillarious Iaquinta pulls it off
 
Rose vs. JJ reminded me of the Condit vs. Lawler fight. Lawler landed the heavier punches (obviously), but Condit landed way more strikes and I thought he clearly won.
 
If Iaquinta wins this fight, Matt Serra would have a hand in the major upsets of GSP, Anderson Silva, and Khabib Nurmagomedov lol
 
over 2.5 at 2.6 is pretty decent. Other than that small on Al KO

Betting wise, I'm perfectly fine with Rose winning.

I went all-in on Rose +115 in the first GambleMaster event for Quarter 2, and had Rose in 80% of my DraftKings teams.

I just didn't think it was a clear win for Rose. Yeah, Rose landed the harder shots and JJ's face was battered, but certain people bruise and get bloody very easily, like GSP.
 
Would I be asking for too much for an al ko?
