definitely one of their weaker cards, not gonna lie... ufc's poaching everyone...
Besides the main event(and Helena), anyone I should watch?
FYI to other people:
Helena was scheduled to fight Meganderson and Tonya Evinger before Cyborg stole her opponents.
Betsafe Invicta lines.
jesus christ borrella is the dog, what the FUCK LOL. i tried to slam £200 on it but they only let me play £56.
Helena is terrible, no disrespect to her. Evidently comes from a Muay thai background but you wouldn't know it from watching her flail around. Also acts like the poor woman's Rousey in that she will try headlock throws (I hate these so much - instant fade) at every turn, and it only sometimes works against poor opposition. She also dresses similar in the cage and has hair buns. Why is she favored? Undefeated and pretty by WMMA standards.lol i'm really not prepared for this card.
anyone have cliffs notes on:
borella
kolesnyk
or the rodriguez-acioly fight? geez who's acioly to be so heavily favored?
I'll take your word here and bet Sorenson at -120 where it is now.Helena is terrible, no disrespect to her. Evidently comes from a Muay thai background but you wouldn't know it from watching her flail around. Also acts like the poor woman's Rousey in that she will try headlock throws (I hate these so much - instant fade) at every turn, and it only sometimes works against poor opposition.

There is one fight from last year where she is getting pounded bloody on the ground. Losing positionally and getting beat on. Helena's opponent is gassed to start R2 and Helena jerks her neck in a headlock and the opponent gives up right away. Prob a freak injury. Helena keeps her record clean..
I only bet on Sorenson (at the betsafe price , 2.75)
Can't be bothered to watch stuff (& don't see the point really), pretty low level card since UFC took all their fighters. Soley wikicapping/memory
Sorenson/Koleslaw:
Helena is a boxer and east-euro pretty girl (literally, her fight nick is 'pretty'). Definite fade at dog odds coming to america against a burly 'murican grinder type.
Dudieva/Borella - not betting, bumfight. Maybe Dudieva?
Cummins/Yu Frey - value on Cummins IMO if you degen that way. I don't, no bet
Rodriguez/Acioly - Rodriguez is from the same gym as Grasso and Aldana. Has a dec loss to Grasso. My guess is Acioly wins but her line is retarded, no bet (though v small degen on +400 side is maybe tempting)
borrella is no world beater but she should be the fav. look at the way the styles match up. borrella will have a 6 inch reach advantage, she's athletic and has decent offencive striking (atrocious defence though).
dudieva is slow, unathletic, throws sloppy hooks and will most likely get chopped up on the outside. dudieva has to get into the clinch to have any success and i think she's going to eat a lot of shots before she gets there (if at all).
@wack3d
threw a flyer on cummins at +300, think the lines should be way closer.
