UFC 192: Cormier vs. Gustafsson - Page 3

Tumenov looked surprisingly smaller than Jouban. Any read on that fight?

I was a little surprised at the frame difference itself... but big aesthetic muscles don't scare me in a striker vs striker affair where the only potential advantage that was somewhat likely to play out Jouban's favor in the first place was cardio - in fact, that shit could really cost him in the cardio department if he's really carrying around more weight than before (I don't think so though, I think he's the same Jouban and Tumenov is just a smallish WW). Maybe he's gonna come out of nowhere and try to wrestle/submit Tumenov, which would suit his size advantage nicely, but I highly doubt it - he doesn't have an advantage there on paper and never fights like that.

Tumenov is just too good on the feet. He's so good in fact that I could see him wearing the gold one day if he really gets stellar TDD. I think him and Stephen Thompson are clearly the two best pure strikers in the division - yes better than Lawler and Macdonald. Whether they are as tough/durable as those guys is a whole other can of worms.

Tumenov is like Gunnar Nelson - cuts little to no weight, looks the same on fight-night, has a thin natural coating of fat over a rock-solid frame, but is therefore very consistent and shouldn't fade and is very hard to hurt with body shots. I'm good with it.

C'mon Gustafsson !! Let's do this.

Small bets on Gustafsson +300 and Bader +140. Let's go dogs.

Bader ML
Cormier ML
Magomedov ML (Although I'm not nearly as enthusiastic about it as I was at first)
Hooker ML

Thinking about taking O1.5 on Magomedov x Jordan because Magomedov is techincal and good defense, so if he doesn't get KO'ed he probably wont KO Jordan at first. It feels like a flimsy bet though.

I'm glad Lewis got that TKO in the 3rd. Viktor Pesta is such a faggot.

+1. even though i just lost a decent amount of money. ROFL at Lewis interview, love that terrible fuck.

Please Mini-Pettis, one time. Anyway it takes, just don't lose please.

It's probably profitable to bet on Lewis in his hometown against a Checkoslovakian there. Crowd wanted him to win, Lewis wanted to win, even the Ref wanted him to win standing him up. You can usually tell in those fights, I've noticed where the loser just feels drained all of the sudden.

Baby pettis is terrible, I already forgot. For some reason you want to think hes good because he almost has to be, but hes a little doll compared to his brother.

It's tricky because he moves kind of the same, so you see the similarity...but has none of the power or timing to a high enough level.

And Cariasco, nobody really knows what the fuck it is that he does.

Holddddddddd Pettis!!!!!

Omg no retarded Shit plz

BAM. OWNAGE. Pettis clearly wins that 9/10 times, decided to stay in guard in 3rd round and not risk any chin issues.

Ladies and gentlemen, Sage NorthGOAT has arrived!

Dude. That was insaaanannnnnnnneeeeeee. That fool is the real deal, but will want to see him tested before betting him at the redic odds hell probably be at. He could be a future champ if he turns out to be tough, not chinny, and a good defensive wrestler.

Just because he doesn't have the power of timing of his brother...who happens to be perennially rated top three in the world in his division...doesn't make him shit

I'm really not sure why I kinda idiotically blind bet Pesta and had him in a few of my DK lineups. But anyways, pretty sure the Black Beast is gonna get Mitrioned again when he steps in level again.

And yeah Sage's rise is going to be really fun to watch. The under on this fight seemed like a ridic easy bet. Snuck it in just in time
