UFN 120 - Poirier vs Pettis - Virginia

[rille31]

Pourier/Pettis u3.5 or Moraes

where do you have 3.5, most bookies have it set 2.5

My book's got Arlovski KO1 at 12. Albini looked fairly hittable in his fight against Johnson, even if Johnson might be the weakest puncher at HW and AA's still capable of rocking dudes. Kind of amusing me that Albini KO1's only paying 2.5. That's less than I got for Kim to KO1 Gomi

Bet365 always messes up lines and I have never had problems hitting them small.

Poirer Pettis U4.5. @2.62 (the line is flipped, but it happend before and they’ve always payed out due to me playing pretty small sums).

Low level comparison considering Slack writes gif articles/breakdowns and Hardy uses UFC footage while they just talk to each other on Vivi. Plus Slack and Hardy both specialize in extensive breakdowns of select fights, not entire card rundowns

the one podcast that i listened to, the guys didnt even take into consideration that a fighter was coming off an injury and one was moving up in weight. they just seemed to make pick based on the fighters last fight

thats horrible

ill go as far as checking to see when the fighter arrived into town (if its east and west coast, should be at a minimum of three days in advance) let alone rarerly ever betting on a guy coming off an injury.

i have absolutely no idea why you would even reference these guys if indeed its true that they are 50/50 on picks not factoring odds

The half the battle guys literally talk about Sage like he's a joke and betting Quin is a no brainer.

They tend to do very outspoken at times. Can be a bit annoying but at least they don’t sit on the fence.

Yep, they were a little over the top with Randy Brown last week too. It's pretty clear they have no respect for Gall's fighting ability, which could spill over a little bit to their thoughts on Sage too, since he lost to Mickey

Not really. People were dismissive of Gall's striking since it's terrible, and were questioning people who assumed that Gall was some sort of grappling whiz that'd insta-sub Brown in grappling exchanges.

That's not what I was referring to. I was on Brown myself, but they talked him up like he should be a -400 favorite. It's a podcast though, and in some cases that's probably the best way to go about things.

I’m taking Brown ITD @1.62 with 2U, he ate clean shots from Cerrone before he went down and I can’t see Diego wrestling him for three rounds. Diego loves to bite down and throw and Browne will connect on that chin regularly. No way it goes all three.

Also fading Sage with a unit and I kind of like Poirer to get a stoppage here. I fully believe it’s time to start fading Pettis now...

Ooh. Took you out of context, didn't realize you were referring to that podcast. I personally went pretty hard on Brown since I just saw it as a moratorium on whether Gall was an A+ grappler, or just... okay, but not a crazy sub-threat. I saw people on the other side of the argument arguing like this was Royce Gracie Vs. Art Jimmerson in terms of the grappling disparity.

My issue with the Pettis fade is that he's historically been durable as hell, and Poirer has been prone to getting in his own head and quitting deep into fights. I could see Pettis just being more productive in a 5-rounder and being better in Poirier's areas of specialty. Definitely on the Brown ITD wagon. I think it'll come early, if there is going to be a stoppage. Sanchez' cardio is still legit and I think Brown needs to catch him early before he gets settled into his tempo.

As good as Poirier looked vs Alvarez, he did get stunned by Alvarez before the knees. It's not like he was clearly on his way to winning that fight, if anything the momentum could have been shifting. Still he looked very composed in that fight before he started to brawl.

 

[Sham5916910]

I think i remember Pettis stunning Melendez with a punch but outside of that has he ever hurt anyone with his hands? They are also getting more and more brittle. He probably needs a hk to stop DP ITD and he hasn't won via strikes for five years. On the other hand outside of Max fight when he was drained af Pettis has never been stopped by strikes. But DP is probably the hardest puncher he's ever faced...

Just going deeper Pettis won 7 of his first 10 wins by KO. He only has two KO wins in his next 15 fights over almost 8 years. Starting to like DP more.

 

[chemmy]

Pettis/Poirier is a very tough fight to call for me. Just going to sit back and enjoy it instead of trying to pick a side.

Damn Budden chill dude don't want ya shooting up a school or some shit ain't worth it bruvva

O still posts.

Im sorry you sucked at gambling and are relegated to part time lurker now, but i'm gonna go ahead and pass on your advice. Id rather take the random criticism from part time lurker I always take rather than politicize my discussions or talk more underhandedly just to appease a bunch of dummies when those who are #elite are wise enough to see the knowledge beyond the polarizing levity

Im going to ignore you

You sound eternally triggered and very unsure of yourself

Cant be triggered when im the one whos lasted years in profit and youre the one who lurks here and there cause you went bust and chime in with your uneducated two cents as if anyone would care.

But whatever helps you feel better about that $0 that shows when you check your gambling account
