Ugh i dont like my bet anymore they're both fighting too conservatively

29-28 Rockhold imo he should win it from here but meh

Best chance is a RNC from either guy, or if Rockhold can clip him standing

39-37, so he's got the decision and will coast it out

Kennedy looks too small for MW

Rockhold's a top 15 guy but not a top 5 guy after watching this imo

48-47 Rockhold IMO. Rockhold still isn't very good.

Well judges disagreed with me about round 1 apparently. LOL @ Rockhold being a 3.5+ to 1 favorite though.

+350 is def lol, I agree. Maybe -225 in hindsight.

A fight that, imo, came down to whoever won the last round won the fight is close pal. Also, what would you say is "close" when one guy is -370?

Umm you should never sports bet. If they fought again I'd bet Rockhold at -400. Kennedy has very few ways to win.

Rockhold has technique closer to a fight in the parking lot of a strip club than high level UFC fighters. Kennedy won 2 out of the 5 rounds imo. If he gets a takedown in the 5th and controls things on the ground for 90 seconds or more then he wins that fight last night on my scorecard as well as probably several judges out there that weren't scoring last night's fight.

But thanks for the advice Dustin

you might have noticed the 3 judges scored it 49-46

and it was closer to 50-45 than 48-47 imo

Yeah, well obviously those 3 judges don't weigh takedowns very heavily as many other judges do (by not giving Kennedy round 1 most likely). And no, round 3 was clearly Kennedy's.

I thought Rockhold looked pretty impressive...good cardio, good length, improved wrestling.

IMO, fading Anderson Silva in his next 3 fights (Lombard, Weidman, Rockhold...potentially) is very +EV

I dunno about Weidman but I think a fair line for Silva v. Lombard is like -500 and Rockhold is like -800.
