I bet on Anders against Santos and appreciated how he fought. He was going for it but just took way too much damage en route to that exhausting stoppage. It was brutal but I was impressed by it, he fought as hard as one could expect from him in that spot. I actually live-bet him again after one of those rounds because he was doing what I had hoped he would do. Not that it worked out that time.. but yeah I don't think he's going to sit back and let Elias run around and pick at him.
I haven't pulled the trigger on Anders yet either but I really want to. I just hate thinking about that crowd/judging (literally a hometown fight for Elias)
Also what was up with Elias in that Trevor Smith fight? He looked a lot worse and seemed to gas quicker than previous fights.
don't be surprised when Anders does beat Hype Train Theodorou. And the last time i checked it was Anders that wanted this fight happen, so the UFC did let it happen. Some people whom are betting Theodorou should bet a dog shelter in case, Theodorou loses dont say i didn't warn ya when he does.Do you think Anders will beat Theodorou?
I hit shev round 4 and 5 on b365 for combined +920Anyone going to take a stab at Shevchenko wins inside distance +178? I think I might...
and wow the implants
Say whaaaat? He is?he's around +135 elsewhere.
Say whaaaat? He is?
What are the bets everyone is agreeing on here?
I like the odds on Ansaroff. Will win the striking for sure and much better cardio so will improve as the fight goes on. Reasonably mobile so (hopefully) won't give up TD's to easy all the time, especially as the fight goes on and Gadelha gasses. Has looked better every fight since being with ATT (who've trained fighters to beat Gadelha before), hasn't lost since 2014 (Kish fight was a robbery). Last fight was also vs a grappler so has been preparing for TD threat for a while (she handled it well and got stronger as the fight went on - perfect for this bout?). Drinks the essence of Nunes right from the cup.
Meanwhile Gadelha has terrible carido, looked not so great in her last two fights, seems a little unfocused: running her own camp, talked about wanting a 'break' after the Android fight (not a great sign IMO), getting fake boobs, thirsting for Ortega, etc. So I feel it's a good time to try and catch the fade. Am hoping Ansaroff gets up as high as 4.0 if the degen #elite #locksonly parlay money starts rolling in on Gadelha. Looking to bet 0.5u-1u on her.
Have to agree. It had to be beaten into me (couple of big losses) that I have to respect wrestlers and use extra caution when I wanna bet against them. Keep in mind wrestling is King in MMA (depending on who you ask), but you gotta have the cardio, it's very taxing on the body. Gadelha is good for a round and a half. Is this enough to win? Probably, but would not like to find out with my money. Pass (it's split dec. written all over it to me)Much like Mac v Khabib or even Nguyen vs Reis...it is much more difficult for the striker to land that perfect shot than it is for the wrestler to get the takedown especiallly in WMMA with the lack of power overall.
