I think a lot of favourites win tonight, only dogs I can see winning are Marshman, Sicilia and Hendricks who isn't even a dog anymore.

Youre like sub 30% in picks and declining. Stop making outrageous statements.

Okay, so hear me out:


Randa is the bigger fighter. Taller and thicker

Randa is mentally strong while Carla is mentally weak

Randa is the best wrestler Carla has faced in a while although Randa's wrestling is not that great

Randa has better striking

Randa is more active on the ground

Randa is a Canadian fighting in Canada

Randa hates Carla from TUF. She also hated Felice and we all saw what she did to Felice on TUF

Randa could be fighting for her UFC spot here

It is WMMA...


Does this all mean Randa will win this fight? Absolutely not. But I think this is all stuff to consider

Yea I bet on Randa by dec for similar reasons, it reached over 5.0 which is pretty crazy and I don't see her winning by finish almost ever here. Best wrestler Carla has faced (ever?) and hometown judges. Bigger physically.
I think Carla's credential is 'all american' but there are nearly no female collegate wrestlers so that's meaningless, Randa has canadian junior bronze which actually might be a better qualification (Canada > USA in wimminz wrestling). That + size could make Carla's wrestling dependence an issue in this one.
Randa has terrible fight IQ and doesn't train at an MMA camp at the moment though. Not to mention a much inferior MMA track record.
Wouldn't surprise me if Carla outpointed her on the feet either (due to speed difference).
I don't like betting value just for the sake of it most of the time but felt like it was worth a 0.5u stab on Randa DEC.
I liked the Carla NSC bets others made earlier, very low risk bet, was decent odds, shame UK still doesn't get them...
 
Don't like this card for betting, nor entertainment really.

100$ on Lombard
100$ on Theodoru
That's it.

Can you sell me on Theo? Currently dont have a bet on the fight but wanted to take Cezar
 
Only bet is Cezar for me. Pretty large. I think Cezar has become a damn good fighter. And I think this is actually an easy(ish) matchup for him. Where he holds the edge in both striking and wrestling

In short I believe Ferreira has realized he can't throw caution into the wind with his glass chin as recently he has had a more "safe" approach standing with a lot more wrestling. I think that will play into Theos game and Theo is very well conditioned, it might play a factor late.

Haven't taken the time to watch time or anything. It's just a standard sized bet for me.

I hear ya. as @SBJJ said, i kinda think stylistically it favors cezar actually. I think he's still being a bit undervalued bc of his chin, when Theo prob cant take advantage of it. prob a pass for me, though. GL!

Cesar doesn't need to take it to the ground. He might at times but he has a decent edge on the feet
 
If you can throw a basic 1-2, you have an advantage over Theodorou. Dude has the slowest most telegraphed kicks for standup.

I think if he had a good beard he'd have the potential to hit elite status

Lombards will not crack hendricks chin.... come down where ever high you are guys.
 
Carla Esparza is a dummy, she has no GnP and no standup. Randa can throw up sub attempts if she's on bottom and can actually throw strikes. I wouldnt be surprised if Randa won a decision especially with the new rules. But Randa also sucks so you may have a chance.

But the 2 things Carla can do are 1) hit TD's and 2) hold her opponent down. And Randa's tdd sucks. And her getups suck. So while Carla won't likely do damage from top position, she's a good positional grappler. If Randa tries to throw up sloppy sub attempts from bottom she will likely get passed and Carla might be able to finish via sub. Otherwise I'm pretty confident Carla will just dominate the grappling positionally anyway.

Is this me trying to convince myself I didn't go a bit too heavy on Carla? Yep. Is it working? Umm...maybe LOL?

Randa's wrestling really has looked like garbage though, and even though she's bigger she always seems to get overpowered against the cage and in the clinch.

Man I might end up taking it in the ass on this one if I'm wrong, but I think Carla is gonna ragdoll Randa.

Your gut says Carla? Play Carla, dont be too influenced by the thread, its gets a bit too hive minded sometimes on the wrong fighter.
 
Carla's hug only strategy is going to catch up to her and I think this could be kind of close (which fucks the -3.5 lol) but Randa has not impressed lately and not lived up to the potential she showed on TUF. Carla hugging incoming
