beltran looks ok.
beltran prolly 2" taller.

burns-sajewski
sajewski still looks pretty mediocre.
burns looks great. much more solid.
burns actually 1" taller.

arantes-sanders
sanders is a goddamned tank. no surprises here but freakin jacked.
arantes looks pretty ripped.. maybe the best he's ever looked?
arantes is 2" taller (shoes)

munhoz-doane
munhoz looks super solid.
doane looks pretty ripped.
they are the same size

lopes-birchak
lopes looks decent enough. same as finale i think.
birchak looks good. status quo.
birchak is 2" taller

makdessi-baghdad
baghdad looks good. rangey 155'er.
makdessi pretty thick.. but i guess normal? looks a lil more muscled maybe?
baghdad is 3-4" taller

mina-pyle
mina looks solid.. maybe a lil trimmer than last time? (hard to tell)
pyle looks ok. same as he has the last several fights. tad soft etc.
pyle prolly 1" taller (shoes for mina)

fight pass main:

duffy-clarke
clarke looks ok. just ok. maybe a little soft.
duffy looks great. same as always
duffy maybe 1" taller

muhammad looks outstanding, as usual. no apparent lack of nourishment??
jouban also looks great.
jouban is 1" taller

nelson-lewis
lewis 265.5. big and pretty fat. same as usual.
nelson 263, shirt on.
lewis looks a couple inches bigger. bigger wingspan/etc maybe?

alvarez-RDA
alvarez looks pretty awesome.
RDA looks great, don't get me wrong, but i think he looks noticably smaller than the last couple fights... - to reiterate, he still looks excellent.
they're the same size


note: i'm not sure which ones are considered main card / prelims, for the record. i might've missed it and/or it's unclear.

note#2: botox in your 20's is a bad look, new ring girl

just adding a bit to muhammad based on weighins. ramadan concerns are gone for me. he looks fuckin awesome. we'll see.

For the Muhammad weigh in - He looked great. Bear in mind that its easier to cut weigh because you aren't eating as much. The concern is about his energy levels more than how great he looks. Can he keep up his point fighting for three rounds 1 day after Ramdan finished? We will wait and see. I wouldnt place too much on him being affected to much though.

Is it me or did Alvarez look a little larger than RDA? Just pause the video when clicked to see.

Here he looks slightly larger, has a sick back. Angle may be playing my mind here.


Here he looks slightly more lean and a little bigger. Again angle may play a part.


Alvarez slightly larger pecs may also be playing a trick here but he does look ever so slightly bigger.




RDA has looked slightly larger before in Pettis fight for example but it may have been the intensive training he done over in Singapore. He already has ridiculous cardio, so if he has improved it, holy shit!!!

Any reason not to play Nelson by KO instead of straight up? Cant fathom black beast having as well movement as Rosholt, if he touches his chin he is going to sleep no matter what i dont see him surviving to a decision.

nah down fucking huge lol, but that's what happens when you gamble on retarded shit involving bouncing balls. i think i gamble when i'm stressed (which is all the time) and i'm looking for some respite, but i really need to muster some self control and only touch mma which i'm good at.
 
Seriously, what is going on with the shape of Makdessi's head?

Yep. Odds just don't warrant the prop. EZ spot on here. Just not getting enough extra $ to not play the ML.
 
Have you guys checked Baghdad videos? I'm shocked how bad he looks in standup against noname fighters.
Was planning to go with Baghdad, as he has a huge reach advantage against Makdessi, who doesn't poses almost any takedown threat (as Wrestlefucker Wade). So looking at a standup match from my point of view.
How on earth did this guy win a world title in muay thai? He does have nice low kicks, which could be good against Makdessi's taekwon-do approach.
 
I'm a sucker for FOTN props and feel like I have to bet one every time if they are offered so with that in mind I picked this one this time:

Russell Doane/Pedro Munhoz FOTN award winner (+700) $10.00 for $70.00

i could see that .. but i'm gonnna go with birchak-lopes for the same price. psycho birchak!

jouban-muhammad +450 isn't bad but just doing a tiny bet here on the birchak-lopes one.

Damn idiot for not waiting on that Nelson line.

nah c'mon. you liked the bet, you didn't know it'd flip, not many of us did. i'm on nelson at -133 net, myself. but i liked the bet then, i like it now
 
small stabs on O3.5 subs +336 and upwards.

luque and burns best chance for sub.

vieira could, arantes could, munhoz could, lopes/birchak could? mina/pyle could? duffy/clarke could. RDA could.
 
Lb listed at 365 just hope we dont have to wait until main card. I cannot bear unibets non user friendly shitty limits site for eight fights...

Hope PP has it from fight one.

I liked Jouban/Muhamed from the start. Wanted +550 but still hitting it small.
 
5dimes users...

Don't see reduced odds for MMA as an option right now. Anyone else?
