I know Woodley hasnt looked good his last couple of fights but I had to do a double take when i was looking at the odds and saw he was +276. Im ready to look stupid over this but I got a feeling Chimaev going to lose tomorrow. Just watching all the fight week stuff he seems to be overlooking Meerschaert who is a capable fighter. Pretty pumped for tomorrows card.

Also, Colby took a long layoff from his ko loss so you never know how well he will bounce back either.

Ehh, I'm on Cov by decision at -150....Woodley either catches him or he doesn't, probably just gets melted down like Lawler did. He didn't lose 10 rounds in a row for no reason, guy has been figured out. And all this "I'm more motivated than ever" stuff, he was talking before the Burns fight and he got completely washed.

Derns weird fake accent really holding her back from being likeable. Entertaining enough as a fighter.

Johny Walker is big, athletic, wild and probably can beat anybody at 205 but also can lose to anybody because of how volatile his style is and how weak that chin is.

McGregor/Pacquaio in the middle east for some oil barons enjoyment and entertainment per ESPN. Not finalized yet but close. Must be getting a ton of money and the UFC probably can't pay him what he wants when there are no fans.

Obviously we all backed up the truck on Floyd at -550 but not sure I wanna do the same on Manny in the Middle East. You know Floyd wouldn't trade his 0 for any amount of money unless the mob threatened to kill his entire family or something (even then, he probably still wants the 0) but Manny who knows. Duterte probably bet McGregor at +500 and clean up.

yeah, this was my first thought when Manny's name was thrown around a year ago or so. I don't trust him like I trusted Floyd.

Tonight seems like the sickest fight ever and I have no idea how it goes as far as making a bet on it.

Thoughts?

I like Izzy's chance of outmoving Costa, however at 2/1 odds for Izzy their may be some value on Costa. Depends how indestructible you think Costa is.

I'm going to hit Brandon Royval at +300 vs Kai Kara France. He's finally made enough this year to quit his day job and is training at Factory X. He's a very tricky fighter. My concern is France's durability and probably where the odds are swinging.

Hey all, stupid question here lol. I don't want to buy tonights PPV. Can I just watch it tomorrow on espn + or do they not show the ppv events on espn+ so close to when they actually aired?

I know stupid question but if I can just avoid the results, I can watch tomorrow. Something tells me they don't allow this though bc it would cut down ppv buys. Thanks for any response on this.

The PPV wont be on ESPN+ for a few weeks atleast.

I think im leaning Costa tonight. I think i might be just using the let down of Isreal's last fight against him though. He will probably have another dominant performance to keep my 0fer going in predictions.
