UFC 246 Results

That was a horrible showing for Cowboy.  Like I expected, Cowboy couldn’t get started quick enough.  He couldn’t get out of the first round. Yay Cowboy didn’t show up. It was a bad showing, 40 seconds, 0 strikes landed, got jarred by shoulder strikes. Not his best performance.

So, if there was an underdog pick to throw $5 dollars it should have Roxanne “Motherfucking: Modafferi.  Wow, what a performance.  Was beating her up on the feet.  Yes, Macyee did clearly hurt her leg in the second round. But with Maycee being -1000 favorite I could have made some money. 

I think I betted appropriately for Cowboy fight but one stat i do want to put out is that Roxanne would be on a 4 fight when streak if her opponents had to forfeit for missing weight.  She seems to be finally fitting into this weight class when her opponents don’t have to struggle to cut those extra pounds. 

The fight I do have issue with my betting strategy has to be the Carlos Diego Ferrira fight.  If I’m confident in the fight I need to bet more if they are the favorite. Then there was the Fili fight.  It was close. I thought Fili would be able to pop back up after being takedown but Sodiq had good top control.  I knew Sodiq was a Llyod Irvin guy and so has to have a good ground game but his top control in the 2nd definitely took the round.  Fili had his moments, but I think Sodiq is one to watch. 

Where are we at with my totals Fili $10 + Cerrone $5 I’m down $15 but wait…..  I did win at -255 so I get a cool winnings of $5.88. Leaving bank roll at $240.88. I lost 9.12

UFC Fight Night: Blaydes vs. dos Santos

And 

Bellator 238: Budd Vs. Cyborg

I feel like I wasn’t aggressive so I’m going to change my strategy some.  Also as a first I’m going to talking about a Bellator fight.

(+295) Julia Budd vs (-556) Cristane Justino

I’m picking Budd guys. Yeah I think Cyborg has made a career of beating up inexperienced or undersized women.  Budd is not small and has been in the sport awhile and has fought a lot of named opponents.  I’ve got $30 on Budd.

(-150)  Sara McMann vs (+140) Lina Lansberg

My next pick is Sara McMann the crazy thing about this fight is she is still the favorite after coming off two loses and time off from having her baby. Lina Lansburg is coming in with a two fight win streak especially her last win against Macey Chiasson promising Ultimate Fighter Winner Season 28.  McMann opened up at +120 and that has swiftly changed. The sharp money is on McMann because McMann has been dominate in those two loses before getting caught in submissions while being on top.  McMann being the Olympic Silver Medalist in wrestling counters all of Lina’s strengths in grappling. Lina Lansberg is World Champion in Muay Thai. McMann has never been stopped from strikes other than that knee she caught from Ronda. I’m confident she can close the distance without getting caught coming in. The most important aspect is that McMann doesn’t have to worry about being caught in a submission since Lina strengths are clinching and striking she has 0 submission wins.  I’m putting down $40 on McMann
