Dang really? I thought he looked pretty damn bad. Saying his scale was off, considering cutting his hair off, etc. Those eyes look tired....

um. what? you link an early weighin pic and compare it to a ceremonial weighin pic? not to mention, he did NOT look that bad at the early weighin. wasn't walking weirdly or anything, body language was totally fine.
you gonna start being this way again?

Man, don't ask me because I don't know shit about it, but my sister loves her some Cowboy Cerrone and there's also a registered nurse. I was telling her about his blood infection. When she heard that it was he was removed from the July 8 card, meaning that just 3 weeks ago he was getting treatment for this, she was apoplectic. The standard treatment is usually a course of anabiotic's from the house. If that doesn't respond that means it's pretty damn bad, and you must be hospitalized. The treatment their is to receive rest and intravenous anabiotic's.
Now, July 8 wasn't that long ago LOL in fact, it was just 3 weeks ago! The treatment that Donald received was a course of anabiotic's for seven days intravenously. That means he was still receiving treatment up until two weeks ago. She said that there is basically no possible way that you could train following a round of super efficacious MRSA antibiotics.. That your body will be so fatigued and drained from the anabiotic's that you would just feel like absolute shit. she said basically that all you could do is work a treadmill to stay in shape as best you can, but that she couldn't imagine even doing this until two weeks after the treatment.
Like I said she loves cowboy and worried he's going to get smoked. She was positive that he is going to have absolutely no energy if this goes into the second and third round.
Apologies if I have any of this information incorrect like the dates and such.

Few event props I like..
Skybet have got O3.5 decisions @ 7/4 (+175) for the televised part of the card so that's the last 9 fights. Yes there's three 5 rounders in there but one of those is likely to go to the scorecards and then there's at least 3 or 4 four others likely to go to a decision. Statistically you'll see 4 or more decisions in 9 fights on these big cards so the price looks generous. Already got a unit on that and may add to it.
Paddypower have got Lamas/Knight fight of the night @ +600. Self explanatory. Half a unit on that.
Same book has Knight to win performance of the night @ +900. If he does beat Lamas it will likely have been in a thrilling war so imo pretty good chance he picks up one of these bonuses for his night's work. Another 0.5u on that.

Was thinking about betting on Lawler but man... he's always been known to be shy and somewhat standoffish at times but he is really acting wierd now. Cerrone is also not acting like his normal self.
Both guys seem off. Clear pass.

Yeah, both Robbie and Cowboy looking off, especially Lawler. It looks like he doesn't even want to be there. He's been fighting for a long time and has taken a ton of damage in recent fights. I'm also pretty sure he has a wife and kid(s). This will be his 1st fight after losing his title to Woodley by KO. 1st fight at a new camp... Pure speculation on my part, but he doesn't seem too motivated. Also hasn't looked as physically imposing as he used to be in Woodley and now Cowboy fights
The u2.5 is my favorite play in this fight
