How am I supposed to play Draftkings with 10 fights? I sure hope the UFC refunds people their ticket money, who wants to pay astronomical prices for a 10 fight PPV.

Ankalaev is making a big mistake if he doesn't wrestle.

Unless he lands something big and early, he's got to at some point.

I hear that "Scared Sh!tless-itis" is serious business.

 

[Tchernobog]

Yeah that sucks, two of the better fights on the card

 

[HHJ]

Ank is a striker

He does go for takedowns though, he has in several of his fights. He clearly is training grappling all the time. He also stuffs guys whenever they try to take him down. He leaves it on the backburner cos he is a better striker than alot of the guys he's fought but he's got to be ready to use it here.

In like a jaula spinning back kick to the dome !!

 

[Siver!]

Wait, we've lost two fights?

Man, I dunno if I can be bothered with a 12:30 am start. Might give this one a miss.
