Joanna was a beast in her prime. Smart of her to retire at 35. Her stare downs were legendary.

This next weekend 6/25 there isn't a whole lot to get excited about although I really want to see the Neil Magny fight.

Neil is a great guy. He was willing to fight Khamzat when no one else would. No fear. Unfortunately, Shavkat is a more skilled fighter and 15-0 for a reason. Anything can happen though in MMA.

Put some $$ on Shavkat at -310 when betting opened. Only because I see his fight as a lock.

For this past weekend, down in Austin,

UFC Fight Night: Kattar vs Emmett | UFC

There were like 8 KO
and many were in the first round.

On ESPN+ (not ppv)

Pretty good action if you like striking.

On the broadcast the network aired Race Qualifying or some such and missed 3 KO's in the Preliminaries - so worth getting the stream.



If you were a fan of the recent Rose Namajunas vs Carla Esparza, match, these are the opposite of that one.

 

[Burt Gummer]

Ka-Ching ......... was worried Neil was going to get an ankle pick and the upset though.

 

[Burt Gummer]

Wanted to, but did not, bet on Gamrot. Really felt his fight was a pick-em. Gamrot has a fighter's heart and tough as nails.
Ugh. The whole IRS can't write off loses thing really has me only betting near sure-things.

"No man that beats off to cartoons, is going to beat me!" - Sean Strickland

Love the guy, but I fear Alex is going to be too much for him even though he is a -110 underdog w/ DK. I would say Alex is probably the best underdog bet on the card.

Alex Pereira
Moneyline
Sean Strickland vs Alex Pereira
+110

Gotta pull the trigger on this one ......

Yup. Alex is gonna starch Sean. Meanwhile, after Munoz leg kicks the $hit out of Omalleys ankles, he's gonna beat the brakes off him

 

[Burt Gummer]

My one bet was a doozy. Thanks Alex.

 

[Burt Gummer]

Poor Nate - he was set to be Conor's hand picked return opponent and now being fed to the Wolf. Odds -1250/+800 on DK

 

[Burt Gummer]

London card is great today! Edit - wow = Tom's khee gave out. Curtis TKO I guess>>> RD 1

 

[AshWilliams]

Some good fights yesterday. I so wanted to see Paddy get KTFO out or submitted. That teabagging at the fight stoppage shows what a douche he is. Of course, that's why he does it: more controversy equals more eyes on him.

 

[Burt Gummer]

Yeah not a fan either, but did appreciate his comments about men often needing help before they chose suicide.

 

[Burt Gummer]

Tomorrow's card is a weak PPV, but here are my pics. Declining in confidence from top to bottom. Love Derrick Lewis, however never bet on someone because you like them.

 

[Burt Gummer]

AUG 6th next Sat if anyone cares - two part parley Hill and Luque. Pays +117. More than double your $$. 85% confident pick.
Agreed with this assessment:

 

[Burt Gummer]

Terrance will definitely win his fight, but is a -850 fav. Betting $850 to make $100 is pretty steep. Sort of like betting -1250 on the upcoming Khamzat fight vs Nate Diaz. Poor Nate, damn.

 

[Burt Gummer]

Izzy vs Alex will be good. Should be even odds, but Alex is a steep underdog.

I hope he catches him. I cant phukkin stand Izzy!

 

[Burt Gummer]

The three Narcissists are Jones, Adesanya, and Usman. Any of those getting beat would put a smile on my face.
Wishing Leon the best tomorrow.

You best throw Suga Omalley onto that list until October when Yan stomps a mudhole in his a$$
