Cause the UFC places flyweight fights on the card like retards. Thats probably the best fight of all of them tomorrow. Such a shame
We're watching and betting on every fight. Does it really matter what order the non main & co-main event bouts are in?

Ah so you are watching Black Mirror
For us, no. But he has a point. These guys should be the co main event and getting that spotlight.

Yeah but only watched each ep once because a couple eps hit too close to home and gave me severe depression for a few daysAh so you are watching Black Mirror

This Is England is a top 50 movie for me. TV series was excellent as well except the newest season. Never seen Utopia

- Here are a couple more breakdowns for UFC fight night 99 (if anyone wants a specific fight dissected Val I have it already broken down let me know)
Volkov o1.5 -175 +117
Johnson u1.5 +150 -137
Rocking the best porn-stache in the business, Johnson (10-2 overall) has been victorious in two of three inside the octagon. What's more, Johnson has pulled off upsets in both of his victories by shutting down the highly regarded Polish prospect Marcin Tybura and then Russian stand out Shamil-Abdurakhimov. They only hiccup so far in Johnson's Octagon showings was a close decision loss as a near 3 to 1 underdog to Oklahoma wrestling juggernaut — and all around wet blanket — Jared Rosholt. Clocking in at 6'3" tall and 264 pounds of pure beef, Johnson is a monstrous mass of a human being who has more than serviceable striking accentuated with excellent wrestling ability. Most of Johnson's game is of the meat and potatoes variety, as he isn't a natural athletic dynamo like a Yoel Romero. Nevertheless, Johnson makes up for it by being tougher than a two dollar steak and using high fight IQ. Since losing his debut as a professional, Johnson has one 11 of his last 12 outings and is steadily rising up the ranks of prospects to keep an eye out for.
Volkov (27-5) is making his Octagon debut after spending time competing in Bellator and M-1 among other organizations. The 28-year-old Russian is an excellent striker who stands an incredible 6'7" tall with an interminable 81 inch reach. With a black belt in Tsu Shin Gen and brown belt in Kyokushin karate, Alexander is an formidable striking specialist. Subsequently, with his height and reach his striking is bolstered as he can hit his man from across the cage and dictate range. The problem with Volkov has been that he is often apathetic in the striking department because of his fear of being put on his back. Though he has a purple belt in Brazilian jujitsu, Volkov is not a significant threat off of his back when facing another high-caliber wrestler/grappler like a Timothy Johnson.
This tilt will likely be decided early as we get to see what type of improvements Volkov has made in his takedown defense. Essentially, if he is unable to stave off the takedowns of Johnson then I don't think he has much of a chance to win this fight. Unfortunately for the UFC debutant, his TDD has historically been average at best and mediocre at worst. This doesn't bode well against as a multiple time All-American wrestler from Division II Minnesota State University Moorhead. Specifically he dropped back to back fights against a wholly mediocre Tony Johnson and prior to that Cheick Kongo. Both men were able to control him against the cage and drag him to the mat repeatedly — especially Kongo. However, if there is a glimmer of hope for Volkov and his backers, he was able to get the best of Sambo specialist Blogoy Ivanov of whom has a similar style to that of Johnson. Not only did Volkov survive against Ivanov, but he was able to lace up a fight and a rear naked choke .
If Volkov is capable of shirking off the takedowns attempts and setting up shop from the fringe, his striking could be the difference. Volkov is technical and his 18 career knockouts vouch for his heavy handedness.
Currently the M-1 Global Heavyweight Champion Alexander Volkov has historically struggled to extricate himself from the grip of the grinder in previous matches against decent competition. As such, it's highly doubtful that he'll be able to fend off repetitive attempts from the stratospherically better grappling expert in Johnson.
Look for Johnson to bring this fight to the mat early and often where he will likely search for a arm-triangle choke or simply pound the Russian out.

Lobov o1.5 -175 +210
Ishihara u1.5 +147 -250
For all of his shortcomings — and there are many — the one thing that the (12-12) Artem has going for him is absolute sledgehammers for fists. In fact, his entire MMA game is predicated around his striking game. Throwing a variety of punches from myriad angles, he doesn't discriminate between the head and the body and works in tight left hooks, strong uppercuts, and a powerful left-leg kick to the body. Where he gets into trouble though is that he isn't quick and he fights with a karate style open guard which leaves him ripe to get countered. Additionally, it places him off balance and gives his opponent the opportunity to bring The BJJ blue belt to the floor and control position.
An absolutely whirling dervish of fistic fury, Tokyo import and uber confident Teruto Ishihara (9-2-2) smashed his way to the finals of TUF: "Japan," where he ultimately put on a show with salty dog veteran Mizuto Hirota for a split draw. After linking up with Team Alpha Male however the, Japanese based firebrand brutalized Julian Erosa and Horatio Gutierrez in back to back TKO victories. All told, Ishihara has knocked out eight opponents and his technique continues to improve in each subsequent outing. Just 25 years old, Ishihara has a lot of upside and his conditioning and superior wrestling should be enough to get the win Saturday.
For all intents and purposes this is Ishihara's fight to lose. Particularly his speed and power alone should win the day. Moreover, Artem will be all to willing to engage "Yashabo" into the firefight he thrives in. However, you better be careful what you ask for because as pedestrian as he is, Artem's one get-out-of-jail-free card is always going to be his blistering kill shots.
The owner of an abbreviated 66 inch reach, Artem relies on his opponent fighting his game. Ishihara can probably fight on the outside and get a victory, but if past is prologue we will likely see his wild and reckless style which will present Artem the necessary opportunities to catch him being over aggressive. Having not been knocked out in over six years, I do believe Artem's chin can withstand Yashabo's shots though I cannot say the same thing for Ishihara. If Artem is is to land one of his nuclear bombs in the midst of a rock-em' - sock em' robots style of fight, things can come to a halt immediately.
The dilemma with playing Artem SU is his countless liabilities. Specifically he has a porous defense that only exacerbated as the fight wears on. While I believe Ishihara's conditioning will see him through to a clear-cut decision victory, I do believe that this style of fight fight is tailor-made for the hometown fighter.
Therefore, a round one win and/or Artem TKO at +680 and +1075 respectively are potentially nice prop plays or hedges if you are so inclined to put the Japanese gunslinger into a parlay. At -275 at -240 I do believe that Ishihara has value for a parlay piece if he's able to make it outside the first frame.

So we have 13 fights tomorrow. Statistically 37% of underdogs win so most likely 4-5 dogs about to win tomorrow. Everyone pick 4 or 5 dogs who you think may come out victorious.
I pick: Vilkov, Lobov, Kwak, Dudieva
