I'm all for looking for value, but thats not what he was saying he said that Pearson was a wasted bet as a huge underdog and that 'He is going to sleep', and a sweeping declaration like that is just plain stupid in MMA and getting overly invested in props his a fast way to lose big. Even prefight I fought there was little value in the KO line, I capped Green around -230 and given how little he has cared about finishing before I capped his KO line at around what the books had it at. Then post fight as soon as Green finished he comes back to chat shit and throw insults. I think thats ridiculously petty and arrogant when last week I could of comfortably done the same over the Blaydes fight to him but never even considered it given how childish it is.
As for Paul I just called him out for doing it as he complained at me liking one of Steve's comments before and was highlighting how hypocritical it was. I completely agree with you on how unconstructive it is.
Yeah, I agree that qualifying the 'he is going to sleep' comment with an 'I think' would have been a much better look... If what you wrote above is true, you could have just answered the gloating that you didn't necessarily think it was poor capping to bet the KO @6.00. But what you wrote sure made it sound like you thought it ridiculous that there could be value in betting something that hasn't happened frequently in the past.
