And yes, people are betting on Barberena.

hammered AJ -300 and put some on barbarena at +350

I'll probably put a small bet on barbearena

Anthony Johnson (205.25) vs. Ryan Bader (205)
Josh Barnett (241) vs. Ben Rothwell (265)
Iuri Alcantara (135.25) vs. Jimmie Rivera (135)
Bryan Barberena (170) vs. Sage Northcutt (170)
Jake Ellenberger (170) vs. Tarec Saffiedine (169.75)
Olivier Aubin-Mercier (155) vs. Diego Ferreira (156)
Kevin Casey (185.25) vs. Rafael Natal (185)
Dustin Ortiz (125) vs. Wilson Reis (126)
George Sullivan (171) vs. Alexander Yakovlev (171)
Alex Caceres (145) vs. Masio Fullen (145)
Randy Brown (171) vs. Matt Dwyer (169)
Damon Jackson (145) vs. Levan Makashvili (145)
Tony Martin (155) vs. Felipe Olivieri (155)


- Rumble weighed in with his pants on and made weight no problem. Bader had his shoes on when they did the stare down.
- Ellenberger looked good on the scale when compared to his last couple of fights.
- CDF was moving slow while talking his clothes off on stage, and he used a towel right away and was super thrilled he made weight at 156 pounds. Also, he recently shaved his entire head, which used to have a lot of hair.

I think putting some on Barberena is a little bit of ingrained hoping for hype to bust. I mean I guess until we see Sage in a real fight, there's always going to be questions about his toughness/chin but it's going to take someone on a higher athletic level than Barberena to push Sage there imo.

Think I've convinced myself to like Bader in the main a little. Though AJ did look really good as he has been looking recently. Luke Thomas had an interesting point in his predictions in that he thinks it'll look a lot like the Phil Davis/Rumble fight. Guess it always could because you just never know how someone will react to power like Rumble's but as weird as it sounds since he used to have mental slip ups, I think the current Bader fights smarter than Phil Davis ever did.

Barberena is tough, and I think he'll make it past the first 5 minutes; however, he was preparing for a fight at 170 pounds, and it was supposed to take place next month, yet he looked the same at 170 as he did at 155 pounds, except that he has a ring of fat/spare tire around his waist and still has no muscles. On the other hand, Northcutt looked amazing at 170, just like he did at 155.

If Barberena's line gets to +400 or better, I'll put a bet on his ML. Otherwise, I'll stick with my 1u on o1.5 rounds at -135.

Also, remember that this card is on FOX, which means it starts early: 12:30pm PST / 3:30pm EST

Yeah Sage looks like he'll be well suited to 170. So young so he'll be able to cut to 155 still for long time too. Barberena is tough and seems well rounded enough. Just don't see real paths to victory for him. Not explosive enough to catch someone as fast as Sage and even if Sage is green technically, not like Barberena is a Tumenov or anything

Anthony Jhonson in round 1 (+170) looks great to me

My bets pre-live betting:

+ Show Spoiler +

YES!!!

Tony Martin is back, baby!

Sage Northcutt's hype train was just derailed after he went for some cartwheel kick and ended up on his back. He tapped super early from a head-and-arm choke that was applied from the wrong side.

I don't think he intended to throw that kick, looked to me like he slipped and turned it into a kick.
Whatever no big deal he is 19 years old, he'll get better.

Good night so far. I won 55 on saffidene and accitently submited my 10 dollar bet on barberena three times so profited 70 on that.

Feeling lucky so placed 50 on barnet now :D

if you are in a really quiet place and pay attention, you can listen to some weird sounds from afar... those are Dana Whites howls of pain

Nice win for Jimmie Rivera.

He didn't look amazing, but he used the right game plan against a dangerous opponent.

Lol go rothwell!

Ship it!

Welp, this is my last betting card before my 4 month break due to my usual uni studies, so of course I lose every bet that mattered.

No bet on the main card, so I'll call it a day.

BIG BEEEEEEEEEEEN NICE :D
