Thinking the same thing lol, I'm so exhausted but feel it will be worth it.

Roy winning gives me a really small loss, or a sub win gives me a winning card... So let's go Roy!

Nelson is actually quite quick with covering the distance when he goes for his right overhand.

Each guy looks surprised the other one is as quick as he is. Both looking sharp...

I feel like Hunts body kicks are useless vs Nelsons fat midsection.

Ugh tough to score...Hunt more effective first few minutes, Nelson last few.

10-9 Hunt? Idk but I'm really regretting not betting Roy at +160 or whatever sigh, whyyyy did he have to drop so fast.

Nelson 10-9, he's looking good. To bad he has the worst TDs ever lol.

Hunt looks like he is a bit gassed tempted to bet on Nelson if he gets through the next round.

Both guys are noticeably gassed in 2nd round.

Hunt starting to time Nelson's approaches but Roy's movement looks much better than past fights.

WOW... THE Patented walk away delivers again.

I can never stop smiling at Dana wanting to buy him into retirement.

The walkaway didn't look as cool because the ref was right behind him and he had to kind of step over.

Hunt would be my top 3 favorite fighters if it wasn't for the jesus praise.

Well ****ty card betting wise -7ish units. 2 bad ones in the last 3, hopefully 178 is good for me.

As far as the fights go it was a great card though!

looool the one way I didn't think this would end...if both guys landed Hunt's chin would crack first. Kind of a deflating ending to what was pretty good boxing by both.

Hunt backers ITT thought Hunt would whitewash on the feet, and Nelson backers thought if it hit the ground, it would be over quickly. Aaaaand neither.

Hit my Tate bet but lost No Hunt KO (though that closed -190) for a small loss. Some decent scraps, some horrible mismatches...a Japan card to a T.

Hunt vs. Browne makes sense and winner gets Cain (if he beats Werdum) The key is to skip JDS.

Hunt actually matches up relatively well with Browne, though he would still be a dog due to sheer cardio factor IMO. Imagining Cain vs Hunt has me in stitches though lol what would the line be -1500?

Against someone like Hunt or Nelson it's impossible to go over -700 due to the 1 punch. Hunt has a good left hook and a right uppercut that could catch Cain shooting in. I want to see Hunt vs. Cain somehow if nothing else out of respect for Hunt's career.

Arlovski vs. Hunt winner gets Cain?

Don't see how Cain could be less than -1000 vs Hunt I mean even Roy's slow shot got him down a couple of times. And no way he's getting back up at that point.

Whenever ppl match a fighter up with Cain, it's their odds of hitting that KO in the first min. Hunt is top 5 in that regard, he's up there with Browne, Overeem, JDS etc to get that first punch. But after the first min, he will just embarass Hunt. I mean, both Hunt and Nelson were tired in the 2nd round, even after the first round wasn't gritty to the point it would be understandable that they would be tired. Cain/JDS are just way too athletic for fighters like Nelson/Hunt.

Though, to be good in the HW division, all you really have to have is a good chin and decent boxing (preferably good cardio, but since everyone is usually lacking in that department, it doesn't make that big of a difference). Both Nelson and Hunt have just obliterated the mid-ranked guys, despite being as far away from athletic you could get, and that is just due to having solid boxing and good chin. That **** wouldn't fly in the lower weight classes.

Omfgggggggg I missed the card, I thought it was going to start at 12:30pm not am, and just went to bed. I didn't make any bets either but I was planning to go heavy on Miesha and moderate on Hunt and Blanco. Ughhh, I was stoked for Nelson vs. Hunto too.

Also how bad was the Kunimoto decision over Walsh? See every pbp gave it to Walsh including some 10-8s for the first.

My two biggest bets won, Caceres losing killed my parlay, won 2.8u for the card. Just finished watching most of the fights just then. Glad to see Lim, Tate and Akiyama all win impressively. Hunt win was cool too, would like to see him fight Browne for a shot at Cain/Werdum winner if JDS beats Stipe (obviously if Stipe wins he gets the next shot). JDS needs to be matched up differently, guys like Barnett/Overeem if he beats Struve/Rothwell if he beats Gonzaga etc

Alternatively they could make Hunt vs Arlovski as well
