I'm calling it now, Anderson is gonna finish Walker in rd 3 if the fight gets to rd 2.

Anderson rd 3 is +1850. He puts on volume with his gnp, if the fight goes his way, I think he pounds Walker out sometime in rd 3. Yeah, Walker may blast him early but if he doesn't, this prop has a good shot to hit.

As an Anderson bettor, I, too, hope he wins in Round 3 after putting a beating on Walker.

Never sat up in the bridge seats before. Pretty good view for the price surprisingly.

I've seen variations of this same thinking, but what is it based on? We've seen Walker blast people in round 2, including fights where he was taken down and on his back for the entirety of the first round.

We've also seen Anderson unable to finish and get hurt by a completely gassed Latifi in his last fight in round 3.

Hell, we know very little about the state of Walker's current cardio, his takedown defense, or ability to get up, except that they were all much better on the Brazilian Contender series than they had been in his regional footage.

I was surprised that the capacity for MSG is only about 20,800, as that photo makes it look substantially bigger than the SAP Center, which I've been at multiple times for hockey and Bellator and is 17,500.

Bridge seats?

i sat first row uppers when they came to bmore and the view inside the cage was great. Very similar to that.
 
Kinda liking the Dawodude in under 2 rounds.

When they renovated the Garden they added these seats kind of suspended over the lower level. Only seats of their kind in sports I believe.

I locked in anderson round 3 at +2800 a while ago. I'd be.. very happy if this occurred lol.
 
Dowadu should’ve got his face on his chest next to mean

Admittedly it's a gut feeling along with the fact that Walker's style is explosive and those type of moves take a lot of energy. And Anderson has cardio for days and will throw relentless gnp when he gets top position on tired fighters.

I mean, it's a +1850 prop, so I kinda feel like I should get a bit of leeway here with this prediction LOL.
 
Think Arce just lost that left knee
