Since Nik Lentz pulled out, this entire fight card will be on Fox Sports 1. The event starts in a little over an hour. |

My bets pre-live betting:
+ Show Spoiler +
I wasn't planning to bet more than 1 fight for this event, but there's a lull in homework this week, so I had some extra time to spend looking at a few of these fighters. I'm not really confident on most of these bets, which is why I kept everything small aside from Brandon Thatch.
Brandon Thatch -115 $50 for $43.38
Holloway/Miller u2.5 +120 $10 for $12
Holloway/Miller u2.5 +110 $5 for $5.50
Kiichi Kunimoto by submission +1250 $2 for $25
Daniel Kelly +155 $5 for $7.75
Ray Borg by KO/TKO/DQ +1204 $2 for $24.08
Efrain Escudero +100 $5 for $5
Jim Alers +190 $5 for $9.50
Jim Alers +180 $5 for $9
Jim Alers by submission +1376 $2 for $27.52
Tim Elliott by decision +195 $5 for $9.75 |

Man, Elliot is such a gamer. They shouldn't cut him even if he has lost 3 in a row. Give him a shitty Brazilian or something. |

Makovsky did what he needed to do to win the fight, but ZzZzZz... Wrestle fucking is terrible for the sport, but good for gamblers. |

Well, I can already fully admit Skelly was a bad bet. Hopefully he pulls it off anyway. |

That should not be a DQ - if the strike has begun before the fingers or knee touch, it is legal. That's atleast what they said on the Bellator broadcast yesterday.... plus Alers was completely done anyway. 1 TIME!
FWIW, altitude makes decent fighters look terrible.
NM, after re-watching, he was completely down it was blatently illegal, oh well, shoot it. |

Sigh... Terrible head movement from Alers, and a retarded referee who was right in front of an illegal move that ended the fight.
Hopefully my night turns around. |

Wasn't really the knee that ended the fight. But i don't really know why even kneeing in that situation. |

I saw his hand on the floor before the knee strike started. In a vacuum you would say the fight was nearly over so it shouldn't be a DQ, but in terms of giving a signal to other fighters that would basically mean it's fine to finish your fight/opponent with an illegal knee. |

Escudero with the win. That helped me crawl back, but still down some. |

I should take this back since the rule is dumb as fuck to begin with. |

So many boring fighters in the world. Kind of decided I'm done watching fights.
66% of UFC is blobs of meat running into each other. |

Prazeres blew his wad in round 1. Usually it holds up for 2 rounds, but I guess the altitude owned him harder.

You can say that about any sport. There's plenty of good and bad fights in MMA, NHL, NBA, NFL, boxing, etc.
Anyway, bye bye~ |

if you are not a hardcore MMA fight dont watch Fight Night cards, they have weak rosters |

Yeah that sounds about right. Probably just end up watching the good cards. |

Won over $100 on Kelly. I gave him round 1, and he clearly out-struck Walsh in rounds 2 and 3, while taking minimal damage. Bookies still had Walsh as -130 or worse after the fight was over, with Kelly at +100 or better. |
