It's surprising to me that Romero opened as a favorite over Rockhold. I think that Rockhold's game is built to beat Romero over 5 rounds fairly handily so long as he doesn't make a mistake early.

no way Romero goes 5 rounds against Rockhold, he will maul him in the ground in the latter rounds.

My favorite bet in the Romero/Rockhold fight is Over 1.5 rounds. It opened at -165 and is currently -172.

If any of you want to play in the weekly DraftKings contest I host in the Sherdog MMA betting forum, you can join here: https://www.draftkings.com/contest/draftteam/53432179

Only a few spots left, so I'd suggest reserving your spot now and creating the team after weigh-ins, or any time before the first fight starts.

3 pounds to lose for Yoel. He will look like death for sure.

Romero went back and tried to cut more weight. He went from 188.3 to 187.7 pounds.

Either way, the winner of this fight will fight Whittaker for the real belt. The only negative thing that happens to Romero is that he loses 20-30% of his money, which goes to Rockhold.

Edit: According to the FS1 broadcast, less than three pounds over the limit meant he only gives up 20% of his purse, while more than 3 pounds over the 185 pound championship limit meant he has to give up 30% of his purse.

Well Romero has a walking weight of about 218 pounds being pretty ripped, too
Not so easy to cut down to 185 "on relativly "short notice.

He normaly cuts down within ~4 weeks and now he only had 3 weeks.

U see what i did there with A8 ? He 4 bets and there we go insta jam A8 : ---booooom -- . hahahaha ( Krantz)

Is it ever prudent to bet both the main eventers on draft kings? I think this maybe a war that goes to decision.

Are chicks not allowed to fight in Australia?

Romero is a wrestler who throws low volume strikes, and his cardio sucks. This fight could go to a decision, but it won't be a war.

Holly Holm beat Ronda Rousey in Australia.

Im loading up on Tuivasa

What I meant was in Draft kings format does it ever make sense to take them both if I believe it will go to a decision.

If you put Romero and Rockhold in the same DraftKings team, it would be called stacking.

Stacking is popular in cash games, but not tournaments. Since you need all 6 of your fighters to win on DK, stacking in a large tournament means you automatically have 1 loser on your team.

Both Romero and Rockhold would have to score a lot of points for your stack to have a chance at doing scoring a lot of points in a large DK tournament. This isn't the right UFC card to stack the main event.

Isn't torn meniscus extremely painful? I doubt he'd get clearance to fight if thats the case, he wouldn't be able to throw a single kick, cant keep your weight on the injured leg, cant throw kick with it either, and his movement would be fucked up too. Are strong painkiller injections allowed by regulators in the UFC? That would make no sense whatsoever.

I've seen people with such injuries irl, I don't see how he'd be able to fight that unless he's jacked on heavy painkillers.

Bleh...

I had Nguyen in my most confident teams. I thought the pick was either Nguyen or fade Formiga.

Oh well. Still alive. Hopefully Asker gets the upset.

Adesanya knocked Wilkinson down and finished the fight with a hammer first to his side/hip area. ;/

Shit Blaydes survived that punches


PuertoRican   United States. Feb 11 2018 05:54. Posts 13044

Sucks that Blaydes' wrestling + size + strength is too much for Hunt.

Hunt would've won if Blaydes wasn't an elite wrestler.

Rockhold wentin hard for that counter and it would have been beautiful but since Romero has been showing the left overhand all fight long I think its silly to go for it, just, mixing that jab and front kick to the body would have been enough to deflate Romero

647 points is what won 1st place for $25k in the large tournament. 43 people tied for 1st place.
