Watched the weigh-in face offs. Am I the only one who thought the height difference between Andrade and Blanchfield would be bigger?
no they’re both similar stocky builds

How does Blanchfield deal with Andrade? Can she big brother her like shev did? I tend to think no and andrade beats her brains in.
andrade has power that not many women have felt and not many are built like Lauren Murphy.
would’ve made a big play on andrade at -125
unfortunately my money is all messed up and my bankroll is basically nothing from losing on these last few mains. Going big on me props trying to win big has been…not good.
That Tex/hill fight burned me up pretty bad. I had withdrew most of my br for bills and lost the remainder on that fight after not being happy only being up a few units going into it.
also had a big chunk on Andrade finishing Murphy. Underestimated Murphy and texeiras unbelievable will and chins.
had bb rd 1 and spivak rds 2 and 3 last week thinking I had it played well. Spivak was just all over him. Good game planning
forced Islam itd yesterday after being down 2 units trying to make something happen. Any bet on Islam was bad
really hinders my style. Sucks but that’s just where I’m at financially right now. I’ll have to make some adjustments and focus on hitting some big plus number props
Completely agree. This is not an acceptable card. Zero leans whatsoever.Ufc needs to be called out for this horrible card
I bet every single card … but I’m not gunna bet much tomorrow - as it’s an unpredictable joke
I lean Andrade and I think there might be a little value on Jordan Wright, but I’m not betting this dude. Other than that, Carpenter should win but odds suck.Completely agree. This is not an acceptable card. Zero leans whatsoever.
Public just saw Gane getting outwrestled by Ngannou with no knees and not being a wrestler. Personally think Gane will have no problem defending takedowns against Jones: these athletic freaks can learn very very fast, and he had plenty of time to work on his wrestling. And I don't care how much muscle Jones has put, it's his first fight ever at that weight, he will be at strength disadvantage, or parity at most. But I still pick him to win, he has vastly more experience at championship fights, knows how to be efficient, how to score points (even in bad match-ups) and be safe. It's good style match-up for Jones because Gane needs you to come to him or he isn't that active and assertive, he can be easily lured into point fight, where Jones experience and better volume combined with maybe not a takedown but pushing Gane and clinching him along the fence will help him win this fight. Jones by boring decision most likely.Jones getting juiced by the day

It's going to be something Makhachev vs. Volkanovski type of shit: Jones will surprise us by being better at striking than expected and Gane will surprise us by being better at wrestling than expected. In the end of the day the guy with deeper skills and way to apply them will win.
Sorry for long, unrelated to the thread post.
Money pouring in on Erin. Line even at the moment.
Blaaaah. Ive been on Erin bandwagon and no reason to get out but this just pisses me off.
Pass.
You're kind of assuming we see the long, efficient point fighting Jones we saw vs Rampage, Rashad, Glover, etc. The Last two times we saw him in that mode he was gifted a decision vs Dom Reyes and barely eeked out one vs Thaigo Santos who blew his knee out in round 1. He's coming off a 3 year layoff vs a naturally bigger guy who still moves like a LHW and we're gonna just assume we get the best version of Jon? One we haven't seen in what...6 years?
I've been around a long time. I literally watched Jones blossom into the best fighter I've ever seen when at his best. I knew he was something different early on, and got a lot of shit right here on this forum for paying juice on an "unproven kid" vs Shogun in the title fight. And Jones made it look beyond easy.
But that Jones is very likely gone. He's not "old", but nor is he young anymore. He hasn't exactly taken pristine care of himself away from the gym. Give me Gane at dog odds all day in this one. If Jon proves me wrong, well, I guess maybe it livens things up a bit. But paying juice on him in this spot makes no sense.
And because the card today sucks, I only feel a LITTLE badly for helping in the thread derail LOL. But any other talk of fights outside this card I won't post here. Probably.
Don't get too excited...
How many hours until This card starts? Im retarded
I ended up just playing all dogs... 0-3 to start the night.I lean Andrade and I think there might be a little value on Jordan Wright, but I’m not betting this dude. Other than that, Carpenter should win but odds suck.
Crazy how I have one bet for this entire card. It just sucks too much. I’ll live-bet a little I guess.
If you think Pauga/Wright is going the distance then you'd get much better odds on that than you will on Pauga.
I doubt it goes the distance myself though.
