AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE

That makes me so happy.

Also <3 my predictions today, going as expected for the most part today, Colton is a blown up LW, Whittaker is too big and too athletic for him.

Whittaker need a LOT of work before he beats a top 25 guy but Colton is just terrible

Colton can be a top 25-35ish guy at LW but not at WW he's too small.

Slightly early stoppage but Colton wasn't winning the fight from there even if he survived the barrage which was unlikely.

Yea colton needed to somehow grab him and hump him for that whole 3rd round in order to maybe get a decision.

Nice fight by Whittaker. Good takedown defence and owned him standing.

No doubt fight was over for Colton, he was just gona get more outclassed in 3rd round, but still, early stoppage.

Also, +9.7u for the card now and climbing, gogo Holloway. Slightly less confident in this one in that I think he's a very slight dog to Bermudez but still, decent odds play imo

If he can keep it standing for a reasonable portion of the fight he can definitely win this

Adding 1u on Cerrone/Noons u2.5 rounds at +110 - both guys can finish the other with Cerrone finish a bit more likely. I think this should be more like -125 than +110

It was bad yeah but Colton gets finished there over half the time and winds up eating punches and being on bottom with Whittaker raining down blows the other half, at 1 round each he wasn't winning the fight from there, if he was up 2 rounds diff story

OMFG at that last kick I thought Bermudez was out for sure

10-9 Holloway, lighting him up. As long as he can stuff all of the takedowns he wins.

Bermudez was winning till around those donkey kicks started kicking in. 10-9 Holloway. Definitely satisfied with the bet, even if it goes sour from here on.

Honestly, I'm surprise Bermudez still looks fresh and he took so many shots.

Closer round, but I think it should be 20-18. Holloway had the better combinations and the takedowns evened out imo.

20-18, hopefully the judges don't **** that up, Holloway dominated the first 4 minutes and especially the first minute more than enough to make up for the last 20 secs

Kind of interested in hedging my bets on Teixera. Te Huna is no scrub. Teixeira got rocked by Maldonado, and i imagine Te Huna may be able to take him down too.

+305 sounds pretty good.

FOTN so far unless something excellent later on the card

I have it as a pretty clear 29-28 for Holloway but i've seen bigger robberies.

Seems like in hindsight should be capped at about evens between these two, good thing for me Bermudez gameplan wasn't amazing

+305? I might get on Te Huna actually, that's starting to get tempting, I think the true line is in the low 200s for Teixeira

LIKE OMG TAKEDOWNS

Total bull**** obviously. Incompetent judging.

Adding 0.5u on Te Huna at +301

Oh well, +8.2u but it should be more like +13-14u if not for loltarded judging

Hopefully Dana gives Holloway some bonus money + pays his win bonus
