I still think Machida is a top10 fighter, but it's pretty clear his time at the top 5 is gone. So I think he should retire considering his age and his irrelevance to the division now.

Yoel Romero just talked shit about all of the gay people in USA...
Are you 100% sure he said and meant that? He just said "Jesus Cry" is the best in the world.

Did you listen to the interview???
Romero opened up with saying how he has terrible English but he's trying to learn. Then says something like: hey UFC, hey Florida, hey USA... go for Jesus, not gay Jesus.
Edit: He spoke in English for the entire interview, not Spanish.
Anyway, 2 concussions for Machida in 70 days. Hopefully he retires.

Bookmaker: $62 profit (Lost so much in the beginning with a failed ML bet on somebody, plus an additional -$50 on a failed +3.5 line that I thought would hit for sure.)
DraftKings: $1.51 in profit. I would've cashed big if Machida won by knockout. I had 3 teams that already had over 300 points in them. Those teams ended up cashing, but for small amounts.
DraftOps: $91.26 in profit. I had one team with Romero, one team with Machida. Both teams had the same 4 guys that weren't in the main event.

Romero wasn't definitely talking shit to the USA (even though he fought a brazillian?) I just didn't catch him bashing gays also. I totally believe it though I could barely understand a word he was saying

I actually thought he said "No forget Jesus" during the interview.

He apologized for bashing gay people at the start of the post-fight press conference. Probably got told by his coaches to say something or else face the consequences from the UFC.

Yah let's expect a guy who comes from fucking nothing in Cuba to be as socially progressive as us in the USA who only two days ago finally legalized gay marriage on a national level.
This is the kind of ignorance that polarizes everybody. Don't get too butthurt about it, he's just an awesome ignorant Cuban mega-athlete who reads the bible like it's today's news - pretty normal stuff. Not saying I agree with it, but don't be that idiot who thinks everyone in the world should automatically just 'get-it' overnight and that this somehow makes the UFC look 'ignorant' when someone exercises their right to express their opinion that you (and I) don't agree with.
For reference, here's our jobber President just a few years ago talking about how marriage just be reserved for a man and a women.
Just wait until one of the Muslims from the North Caucuses of Dagestan or Chechnia (Khabib Nurmogomedov, Rustam Khabilov, Levan Makesheveli, Rashid Magomedov, Adlan Amagov, Zubaira Tukhugov, Maribek Taisumov) gets on the mic and tells us how they really feel - a lot worse than not thinking gay people shouldn't be allowed to marry let me promise you. Being a 'moderate' in that area of the world means you simply think women should get whipped for showing some skin instead of thinking they should get stoned to death. And gay people? Rofl, your dead either way.
So in essence, this is a non-story and if anyone thinks a guy like Yoel Romero thought any differently than this prior to him saying it than they know absolutely nothing about the world in 2015 and live in a bubble.

Couple Early Bets Placed for 189 Because I Think Odds Will Get Worse:
Really need to get on 5-dimes to beat the lines even better, could've gotten Garcia and Garbrandt at better and Almeida at -500 which I would have been completely comfortable with, but now that its skipped all the way up to -700 I'll pass.
If I can get up say 50 units, I'll split my roll between Bookmaker and 5dimes and try to start doing this right (early favorite action on 5 dimes, late action on Maker where the lines are usually a bit more competitive come fight time)
