Barnett wont be able to connect with Arlovski on the stand up and he has a very good sprawl, Im leaning on Arlovski on this one but I think the clinch against the cage is a big factor on this one since Barnett will be looking for that all the time but I dont remember anyone pushing Arlovski to the fence and how did it go...

4 to 1 favorite Khabilov barely does anything in a fight that should've been a draw, as neither the fighters nor anyone watching won anything, then calls for Pettis or Barboza in his next fight. Good look guy

Sigh...

My teams are pretty much dead since Askham lost, and Danho's fight ended in a Draw... A draw is basically a loss on DK.

German free tv is showing this but not live lol

Macedo showed some nice skill, but she was too small, and took the fight on short notice, so Smith was able to use her size to easily win after R1.

Considering she only went pro 6 months ago, she did pretty darn well.

she showed promise but why the hell was she in there with a girl twice her size? shes obv a straweight

dam dalby got smashed

This is one of those UFC cards that has random results. It'll rape your bankroll if you try betting every fight.

• Sobotta looked amazing and even dropped Dalby with strikes b4 winning a decision.
• Smith actually won ITD. However, it was due to Macedo rolling for knee bars when she was already tired and got TKO`ed cuz she couldn't get out of the corner.
• Lapilus fought smart and defended the take downs. This was the only clear pick + result thus far.
• Danho vs. Colombo ended in a draw.
• Hermansson looked good in his UFC debut while Askham didn't.
• Khabilov barely beat Silva and he was 4-1 favorite.

Considering how the fights looked on paper, there's some weird results thus far.

wallhead got robbed holy shit.

never seen a fighter run like ayari

this has been the worst card i have ever seen so far. european cards are trash

lol I had a bet on wallhead 30-27 are you kidding me?

Ayari with that Condit vs. Nick Diaz strategy.

+ a million

I watched the first and third fights before checking out til now thinking those were 2 of the worst fights I've seen in a long time and also thinking both fights shoulda been a draw so as to not reward either performance

Danho's strategy of closing his eyes and ducking to throw a barely aimed overhead right before huffing his way into a clinch only to intentionally put both hands on the ground to classify as grounded was pretty disgusting. Followed by somehow being completely gassed doing that for barely a few minutes. Made me have a little less respect for the notion that all fighters should be paid a certain minimum

Good thing all of my teams died early, cuz more random outcomes keep popping up.

I hate these weird events.

an american comes in and we finally get a halfway decent fight and a sick finish (bader)

yea i bricked everything so far; probably gone lose my arlovski bet too. still think the value on latifi was decent at +200 he was live

I had bader twice on pretty dead lineups and latifi once on a live one with Gus and Andrei left. Happy for bader though. Good guy. And not his fault rumble was in his way and the guy could knock out a horse
