Talk about it it.. Pretty terrible card, right? Screenshot_20210418-145906_Chrome.jpg

Pat Sabatini is an easy bet, already went 2.5 units. Have Usman finishing a double, probably bet Zhang... Don't really like much else
 
Who doesn't love a good poster? Ah maybe I just have a flair for the dramatic. Let's see if Rose has a shot to get that belt back.

Betting Usman and Valentina big, Straight and Parley! Not confident in Rose upset. Pm me for my Sure Lock pick of the week!

What? That’s a good main card with some high level fights. Are you one of these Masvidal haters by chance?

<mma3>

I’m not seeing many opportunities for good bets yet, but I need to dig deeper. Will Hall whoop the much slowed down Weidman? Will Rose snipe Weili without getting bulldozed? Will Chef Chenko serve a bowl of whoopass and finish Andrade who’ll walk forwards the whole time?

just here for Weiling, Shevchenko, and Jimmy. Might research Munoz and Sabatini, they look promising.
 
I may be the sole person that thinks Andrade has a much better chance than the odds indicate.

Where is USADA? What the fuck is going on? How is this allowed?

Anyways her opponent is 5'9 at SW and seems like a pure grappler. Carnelossi probably washes her on the feet and from what I've seen she knows what to do to stuff takedowns. Her fight with Joice Mara is on Youtube and her defensive grappling looked pretty good. She fights for the underhook and is strong as hell, you can see that here:

She's also like 5 foot 2, so low centre of gravity and she easily has a strength advantage over a 5'9 strawweight who is not physically impressive.

Carnelossi is also a fighter that will fight for your money.

I took a shot at Liang at+150. She fought most of her career at 125lb and moved down since graduating from the UFC China PI. She’s been wrestling since 14 and has an exploding blast double. A majority of her takedowns are below the waist and I think she could get her down. Valasquez toyed with her and Agapova beat her up with ground and pound but I’m sure she will be more improved of the two.

When did Thor's little brother join the UFC? Form like that brings my own game to shame. Though I will say controlling an unbalanced power isn't something anyone for long can maintain. At least that is relative to the support systems and size of the frame.

i wacth every ufc event. but the first 6 fights of this card are just crazy low level for a ppv
 
So far I really kind of like this card. Feels like I didn't even get to enjoy that last one or catch half the great action. A couple of those fights looked sneaky good. Think I'll just turn on Espn+ and run back a few.
 
Main card is cool, the under card is a wreck.

Have a feeling this will be a violent card, lots of finishes
 
Switching back and forth between Hall and Weidman.

Hall has looked good recently but he's so fucking inconsistent.

If Weidman gets him down once, the fight may be over. Hall can also end the fight at damn near any moment.

They're both 36, but in terms of fight miles, Weidman has way more. And Hall gets better as the fight goes on, it's tough to call.

Smith +170 against Crute entices me

Oliveira +150 against Randy seems a little over.... Should be close to even but I never play Oliveira fights lol

Anyone know about the dogs on the prelims? Unfamiliar with some of them like Vargas?
