Looks like Mazany wins via shoulder injury, they shouldnt send her back out down 2 rounds if shes hurt

This is some seriously low quality WMMA.

0-1 start but it was my smallest bet of the card

First significant bet of the card on Adburakhimov up next, not as big as some of my others but would be nice. Actually losing to the closing price here but still pretty happy with the -134 I got.

Yeah very strange odds movement.
Didn't make any sense after seeing the fight.

Boom, that was WAY easier than expected and glad I had straight up not decision

Crazy, Abdurakhimov just outstruck him and didnt even need wrestling

Back into the black for the card

People forget he beat up Derrick Lewis for 3 rounds, he's not top 10 or anything but he's underrated imo. I'll happily bet him against anyone below the middle or so of the UFC HW division

I really should have doubled down at the -127 it closed at but didn't want to fade steam

Yadong Song is a hilarious name in English phonetically

Good luck Song! Ended up getting -139 and it's -158/+140 on Pinny so even though I know nothing about either guy happy with my price for the sweat

This string of translators to get the answers in Russian, Chinese and English went way smoother than I expected

Song's striking is on point and the Khandare's is very bad. Im pretty sure I win here, Khandare isnt even shooting for takedowns

This Song kid could be a legit prospect he's only 19 and his striking looks great

You'd be tilted if you had Song by TKO given how it played out and he gets the sub. Great hands, slick sub game. If he can get his TDD to a good level he could be for real.

Khandare is obv never going to win a fight in the UFC and is easy fade material in any future fights he can't strike and didn't even attempt to wrestle when he was being outstruck

Song will probably be a dog to any American fighter but if he's facing a non wrestler I might back him again. Haven't been this excited recently by an Asian prospect since Doo Ho Choi

We'll have to see him against someone who has a win in the UFC to get a better idea of his potential though but at 19 he looked great in there, obv his opponent sucks but he was light on his feet, moves well, etc

2-1 start to the card and the two wins bigger than the loss so off to a good start

Might make a late Curran play I guess she's a headcase but she's not that bad an MMA fighter and the last Chinese WMMA fighter sucked.

Took Curran at +131 for the next fight, she's great at throwing away fights she has won but the level of Asian WMMA is very bad and while Curran's record is way worse the Chinese girl has only fought cans and Curran is pretty offensively talented even if she's terrible defensively.

Was going to take Curran originally then the other side steamed but she's moved back in a bit now so gogo Curran

Surely she needs to win this one to not get cut.

Wow Xiaonan's striking is pretty awesome. Curran clearly the better grappler. Too tough to call early on.

Clear 10-9 Xiaonan due to landing better strikes but Curran's outworking her in the clinch and it feels like if she can get a takedown Xiaonan isn't getting back up. Pre fight line looking about right on what we've seen, Curran needs to grapple to win though

Awful awful awful Curran fight IQ to let her up instead of diving into guard
MMA Thread Quote

Curran letting her up at the start of the round instead of diving into guard is why she deserves to lose. She's like the anti-Darren Elkins in that she has zero fight IQ

Xiaonan's striking looks good
MMA Thread Quote

Xiaonan 30-27 probably due to the exchange at the end although 29-28s fine too

Curran is 'almost' good at MMA but her in cage fight decision making lets her down

Prefight line about right with Xiaonan a small fav, she's got great hands but any good offensive wrestler will ragdoll her

I suck for betting on Kailin Curran obviously.

Still up a bit for the card though, 2-2 so far but up nearly a full bet due to sizings

On to the main card, no bet on the first fight then bets everywhere for the last three. Let's go Guan ideally by TKO, Li ideally by decision but Ottow dec is a small profit too and then Bisping and more importantly fight starts 3 rounds and then fight goes distance

2-2 for a slight profit for the prelims

Salikhov's TDD seems questionable. Looking like Garcia or Garcia dec was the value play partway through the fight. No bets here for this one.

Balla Shusher your moment has arrived. Let's go Guan! Not super confident or anything but I think it's a flip and he's a dog so don't mind it. Caceres is very hittable, but also has a grappling edge. That said he's likely to want to stand and trade because of his style so who knows anything could happen in this fight.

10-8 Guan due to rocking him twice and Caceres was saved by the bell there seconds away from being finished

If the round was another 30 secs he gets finished like 75% of the time

We're def on the right side on Guan here, Caceres came to strike not grapple and Guan is the more accurate striker

Caceres is in serious trouble here he's def concussed if not still rocked early in r2

2nd low blow from Caceres

Refs so inconsistent, against Figueroa the ref took two points for repeated low blows just a second warning here. Should be an automatic 1 pt deduction for 2nd low blow/eye gouge/cage grab

Most of the rounds close on volume just Guan landed two hard shots that hurt Caceres and Caceres never hurt Guan

20-17 Guan imo after two.

3rd low blow from Caceres

Pretty sure you can just kick a guy in the balls at will and 90% of refs will just never take a point

Close r3, Guan hurt him early but Caceres won more of the round on volume.

I think I score this one 29-27 but anything from 29-28 Guan to 30-26 Guan is fine

Congrats Balla and thanks for putting me onto Guan to do some research and jump on. The KO prop doesn't hit but still a nice profit for the fight on Guan straight up.

Holy **** one judge gave it to Caceres? What a travesty of a scorecard, he has to have had him winning round 2 which is just tremendously awful scoring, volume was similar but Guan hurt him twice and had him rocked once and Caceres didn't hurt him at all. Just awful. At least the judges got it right. That judge should never score again. No 10-8s either, I guess r1 was competitive until the late knockdown but when a fighters saved by the bell after being dropped it really should be a 10-8

At least Guan got the decision but that judge is a disgrace.

Let's go fight goes the distance/Li for this next one
