Going to leave my Buckley bets for now and will hope that I can swap/hedge when/if Usman is winning the cardio war.

threw spinkle Buckley ko 3,4,5

 

[Guld]

1-0 Usman obviously. Not quite enough damage for a 10-8
Let's see how Buckley adjusts.

 

[Guld]

Well, I'm REALLY glad I hedged. Usman looking untouchable after every takedown, and Buckley already breathing a bit hard.
I also had a sprinkle on Usman by TKO/KO (I'm pretty sure he's never attempted a Sub)

kamaroo chill out brotha i need lil buck to survive for another 15 minutes

 

[Guld]

2-0 Usman.
Buckley did land a few good shots prior to the takedown, but I'm concerned he won't have the power to pull off a Leon Edwards if he gets one more round like that.

 

[Guld]

Nice hits landed by Buckley while they were standing. Usman looked a bit slow and sluggish at that point, but after that takedown it was another mauling.
3-0 Usman

 

[Guld]

4-0 Usman

Buckley gonna have to pull off that kill shot.

 

[Stat_Collector]

Usman about to have a Roy Jones 'yah mustah forgot' moment.

 

[Guld]

4-1 Usman.
With some proper training and adjustments, I think Buckley could take the rematch but tonight was not his night.

[betterthanjones]

48-47 Usman card was weird. Would like to see explaining on that one.

That is a bit odd. Maybe they valued the strikes landed while standing far more than the takedown + control time + short shots for one of the rounds?

With damage being the overwhelming criteria for judging, it's not crazy to think that one of those rounds might have gone to Buckley as well.

So you took a -300 favourite, and then miraculously hedged off on his opponent who was -600 by the end of the first round.

I have found discrepancies in some of your reportings

I had bets and Parlays on Buckley pre-fight.
I added the Usman TKO hedge in prior to the fight starting (lost that one), and had the other Usman hedges in place really early (I believe early in the 1st round)
Got Usman at -118 and -167 respectively. I cashed out everything but my Buckley Parlay at that time as well.

I did the best I could, and actually managed to break even on that fight. (I added some other bets later on Usman at -358 and -556 respectively, but those were just to try and salvage the evening losses)
However, I lost money on Garbrandt, Sy, and Brundage. (Garbrandt was my biggest loss by far) So overall it was a loss night for me, but don't worry I'll keep it 100 with everyone here.
