Not that knowledgeable on Alan Joubans opponent but I like the odds for Jouban at a near pick'em against a debuting fighter.

Reading the cliffs of that interview above is a bit of a confidence booster. Having to train through Ramadan, first time fighting during it and working a full time job on top of that against a solid striker who pushes a relentless pace? With the debuting, working a full time job and Ramadan there's 3 red flags before you take into account the opponent.

I agree with you, although stylistically its a very winnable fight for Belal. However, the 3 factors you mentioned may play a big role here.

10/10 def would bang.

Also belal is really good. He isnt just some guy debuting. Its worth going back and watching him fight
 
Leans for this card

Alvarez- small(value)
Lewis- HUGE
Muhammed- small
Lopes- small-meduim
Arantes- small-medium
Beltran- medium
Herrera- small(value)


After catching up on this thread, sorry to say I couldn't be more on the other side of the Nelson train. Two guys going in totally opposite directions in this fight IMO. Nelson is at the end of it(Bet him against Rosholt and won but was less than impressed) and Lewis is on a nice run right now and is coming into his Prime(for a HW) at 31. This is a huge fight for him and I think he stops Roy.


Think I am pretty much settled on this card in terms of who I like. Just need to finalize everything this week. On to Friday's card! What a week this is going to be.
 
freeroll available if you got a stan james account. mehdit bagdhad is 2.5 (+150) still, makdessi is between 1.8-1.87 at a few euro books.
 
i think roy is gonna knock black beast's block off.

if your gonna hedge decision in play, you might want to hedge pre fight a bit as LB odds will be worse for props likely.
 
i don't know that much a bout alvarez, all i know is his fight with anthony pettis should some skill, he is a good wrestler, anthony pettis is a good grappler as seen by his fight with melendez, and henderson and some of his fights in the WEC, eddie alvarez beat pettis to a decision and won, which means he can probably beat RDA if he studies him and watches out for that overhand and the takedowns by RDA. anything can happen RDA the speed and grappling advantage, he is also very technical and has good takedowns. Eddie alvarez has good takedowns also as seen in his fight with anthony pettis, and has really good boxing and can take some punishment also. anything can happen so my money is on alvarez but i'm not gonna bet yet because my father told me that those betting sites they'll come after me if i can not pay them for losing the bet.

Online sportsbooks require a deposit in advance. It's not like a local bookie who extends you credit.
 
Rda by tko or decision 1.83 on bet365

Think these are the 2 most likely outcomes
 
Im on Nelson too for this one, Lewis has some nice KOs in the UFC but his best win was an over the hill Gonzaga. He got absolutely wrecked by meathead and Jordan handled him pretty well too. Nelson may be getting old but hes only lost to the top Heavys in the UFC and I liked the wrestling and cardio he showed against Barnett. Roy has a great chance to end the fight in round 1 and I while I appreciate how exciting Lewis is just don't see him doing well here.
 
Good news Brits main card is on BT.

JB i just watched mina and pyles last fight each and i digress. I said mina was better at range that may not be the case. If pyle had a half decent chin id hammer his line but hes definitely the better fighter. Minas cardio is terrible! I dont even think lb is safe here as mina hurt akiyama when he was pretty exhausted and that flurry would have put pyle away. Might play pyle dec.

Yeah at current lines I can see why there is a handful having a hard time with that fight, but its hard not to love Pyle at +135 I got. I'm so underwhelmed with Mina in almost every facet of MMA lol and I thought Pyle looked damn good vs Spencer.
 
I didnt want to add more on Nelson but his ko line at ladbrokes is +260 so bet £100.

Hedged a bit more on bb dec £50 @ +800 @ 365.

that's a ridiculous price. Nice grab. Meathead ko'd bb with a little right hand lead jab, imagine Roy landing a clean right hand. Jeez.

hope you are right. went a bit overboard when i saw him at -120 @ betsafe : not as much as Sham :) but got about 500$ on him with a little hedge on BB decision.. after thinking about it some more i regret thorwing down that much being HW's and Roy's age.. oh well ride or die :)
