UFC 261 PBP/Discussion

Welllll... there we go, eating my words quickly there
 
Usman's major weakness is if he starts thinking he's a decent striker.

I was about to write how a guy who starched Gilbert Burns is a pretty good striker, and how Usman won round 1 against Masvidal with his striking, but then, the ending of the fight made this look even sillier.

Usman starched Burns by tiring him out. Solid jab yeah, but it wasn't his stand-up that did it.

Everyone has a puncher's chance even against vastly superior boxers. This was a great example of that. Usman's wild standing up, but his jab has improved a great deal.

Not a lot but still...
 
So glad that tilt betting worked in my favor tonight, bet big on Usman by tko to make up for Crute ruining my biggest play
 
Could only put 1k on usman -5.5. Hedged with mas itd. Was a solid bet but wanted to get down more than 1k. The lean was strong but the profits were meager with my hedge playing it safe
 
Wow what a night. Lost the bet on masivdal but what a punch from usman. Amazing night of fights

Last time I can remember was GSP vs Bisping, 3 title fights and all of them changed hands, all finishes. Common denominator = Thug Rose

can’t get the weidman leg break replay out of my mind! The fans seemed to bring a different energy to the whole event from the first fight to the last.
