Should add that Rogan and Robin (Goldberg) finally saying an oblique kick might be targeting the knees... I mean not once in Jones' 500 "oblique" kicks do they mention the damage that this does to the knees and how many fighters are opposed to it. #end rant.

Nice hit on the decision prop btw I had like 0.1u on it I think when I fired the prop for Sect7g I added a tiny amount extra, still make a loss on the fight but not much

Will enjoy fading Overeem in his next fight. I assume he gets whoever doesn't get the title shot out of Arlovski/Browne winner (if it's Arlovski) or Miocic/Hunt winner, or JDS

Would LOVE to see Brown break Hendricks and finish him. I'm expecting a 29-28 Hendricks but anythings possible

Pretty sure Overeem loses to everyone in the top 8 so we can fade him safely in his next fight against everyone.

They should make JDS/Overeem unless they want to feed Overeem to cain. Maybe feed him to Hunt on the Australia card if Hunt loses to Miocic and can't fight for the title?
How do you believe Overeem looked bad after that? He just murdered a very dangerous opponent, most of those shots would have KO'd a horse. I have no idea how Nelson eats some of those body strikes, and after all that, he eats some head kicks for fun. I think that was Overeem's best performance in the UFC, avoid the power, rely on your skill and technique to batter Nelson, seemed like a beautiful performance versus a super dangerous opponent. What didn't you like (besides the outright running at times, but that just seems intelligent to me)?

Against anyone athletic and with more than one weapon he's not landing a lot of those shots and the turning away is going to get him put out.

He mostly seemed to fight smart though, and planned well. Didn't seem to gas badly.

Adding a half unit on Brown +130 +3.5 points. I think he can win a round.

Also have a half unit on Brown +350

I feel like we might see another Hendricks flash KO. It's been a while.

Either way in expecting Hendricks to roll Brown here. No bets though.

Hendricks is so overrated. He's a ****ty LNPer with some power and a couple flash KOs

Brown's actually done more damage this round by a substantial margin but Hendricks is doing his best to win by smotherhump and Brown doesn't have the TDD to win 2 rounds prob

R1 just as expected.

Lol overrated is so far from the word that should be used to describe Hendricks.

10-9 Hendricks.

Credit to Hendriks for r2. His diet has really helped his stamina.

Hendricks will lose to Rory Macdonald without winning a round if Rory fights as well as he's capable of doing.

gotta agree w/ the fade Reem next fight crowd

This was a good matchup for him but post-roid Reem doesn't do much for me vs most of the elites of the division. That being said I probably wouldn't fade him vs Arlovski

Ah, Hendricks favourite move, the 'dive desperately at opponents feet'

I'll take +100 right now on Hendricks vs either Rory or Lawler.

Pretty much... Although I give him credit for his adjustment to his diet. This is the same fight as Hendriks Condit yet this fight he didn't fade.

Hendricks shippy. Figured that was lock city. Great event for me, Stout only loser I think.

Dos Anjos worth a shot at +365? Have no opinion but want a small sweat

Well time to switch over to Pascal vs Kovalev.

I'm pretty tempted to score this round for Brown due to landing more damage and Hendricks literally landing nothing

Whatever 30-27 Hendricks doing his best to make a Matt brown fight boring he is such a ****ty boring fighter almost every exciting fight he has is because his opponent made it exciting (I actually haven't seen the GSP fight in full)

Condit made that fight interesting, as did Lawler in the first fight, and the only interesting parts of the second were when Lawler was winning. Kampmann and Fitch were flash KOs. Koscheck, Pierce and Story fights were all terrible LnP/Wall and stall fests.

Hendricks is literally my least favourite fighter at WW, his personality annoys me and his fighting style is really bland.

Down very slightly for the card I think something like a unit, Carla will make or break my card as I have something like 4.5u on her + various props

I'd take Esparza over either guy in the main, in the main i'd probably take Pettis ITD if I had to pick something. I have a small sweat on Pettis straight up for action I booked for a friend but nothing stands out as amazing

I'll take Rory but not Lawler for 100 if you want to book that in the event that the title fight is Rory vs Hendricks and fight occurs in next 12 mths

Lawler I expect will open as a dog to Hendricks again, I took him at +180 or w/e last time but won't take him below +150 probably

Esparza can lock a winning card for me.

Esparza/RDA combo doing better than Pettis/Joana combo is really important for my draft kings games. Big sweat for me in these final 2 fights.
