The main event bantomly title 12 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 2: bat between Mirau Devashphili minus two seventy on the money 13 00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 2: line and Sean O'Malley at plus two thirty. The first 14 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:03,480 Speaker 2: fight closed as a pick them Morob was plus one 15 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 2: oh five. The first fight also closed around a pick 16 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 2: them to go to a decision at minus one ten. 17 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 2: As I said, Morob around minus two seventy and the 18 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 2: ghost to decision line also around the same price about 19 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 2: minus two to sixty. In this rematch, should also mention 20 00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:20,039 Speaker 2: Sean O'Malley plus two hundred to win by ko in 21 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 2: the first fight now plus five seventy five in the 22 00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 2: rematch after the money line adjustment, O'Malley moving from about 23 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,120 Speaker 2: thirty three percent implied to win by KO to about 24 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,959 Speaker 2: eighteen percent implied, so very substantial adjustments both to the 25 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 2: money line and the goest to decision props. Now by 26 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 2: Pride rules, Morob undoubtedly won the first fight. I would 27 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 2: say one to eighty five percent ninety percent of the 28 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 2: minutes in that first fight, but by round by round scoring, 29 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 2: realistically he was only a few strikes away in round 30 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 2: one for O'Malley from losing that decision and having Sean 31 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 2: retain the title. Now watching it back, I just watched 32 00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 2: the entire fight back this morning. I really thought Murra 33 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 2: won the first four rounds. Thought O'Malley won round five 34 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 2: with those teeth kicks where he hurt Morob, but based 35 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 2: them upon how the judges scored it. Round two, or 36 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 2: I should say, round three was very close. Round two 37 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 2: and round four were very obvious for Morob, and really, 38 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 2: you know what I should point out, saying a few 39 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,920 Speaker 2: strikes away in round one from stealing the fight. Morob 40 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 2: didn't grapple for the first two and a half minutes 41 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 2: of the fight. He was feeling sewn out, trying to 42 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 2: get you know, a fuel for the distance, which allowed 43 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 2: Sean to be competitive for the first two and a 44 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:31,919 Speaker 2: half minutes. But the moment Mirob initiated a takedown, it 45 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:35,080 Speaker 2: changed the entire dynamic of the fight. O'Malley scrambled up 46 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 2: from that takedown, but then Mrob landed a right hand, 47 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,640 Speaker 2: which was probably his biggest punch that he landed the 48 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:41,239 Speaker 2: entire fight. 49 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: So the takedown. 50 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:46,080 Speaker 2: Dynamics, the grappling dynamics, just changed the way that this 51 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,079 Speaker 2: fight is going to go. I should also mention Morob 52 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,239 Speaker 2: was pressuring O'Malley back for the entire fight. Anytime he 53 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 2: got his foot behind the black line, he initiated the takedown. 54 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 2: And then anytime Sean tried to step up in the 55 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 2: pocket and actually fight back or looked to push Morab back, 56 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 2: Morob initiated a reactive takedown. And those were the more 57 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 2: vital takedowns, because when Sean was taken down in the 58 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 2: middle of the cage, he was not able to get 59 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 2: up nearly as easily as when he was taken down 60 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 2: near the fence, able to scramble back up to his feed. 61 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 2: So I do think given the price adjustment, given how 62 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 2: the first fight played out, given the likelihood that Sean 63 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 2: could still land a knock down or hurt Morob, have 64 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 2: the bigger moments and keep it competitive despite getting taken down, 65 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 2: I actually do think there is value on Shawn O'Malley's 66 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 2: money line. I would project him closer to about plus 67 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 2: one eighty. I made Morab a slight favored in the 68 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 2: first fight. I think you can take about ten percent 69 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 2: off in the rematch, but I do think the value 70 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 2: side is Seawan O'Malley. I would look to bet O'Malley 71 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 2: pre fight, and then probably bet Morob live after round 72 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 2: one or round two, assuming it's going to be one 73 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 2: to one after those first couple rounds, or at least 74 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 2: O'Malley can steal one of the first couple of rounds. 75 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 2: The alternative way I would consider betting this is O'Malley 76 00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:59,560 Speaker 2: on the points spread plus five and a half at 77 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 2: minus one thirty five. I think he can lose a 78 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 2: forty eight to forty seven decision, but I also give 79 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,640 Speaker 2: him more finishing upside of the pair as well, so 80 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 2: O'Malley on the points spread plus five and a half 81 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 2: don't love laying the juice there though, and then pre 82 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 2: fight money line into a mirob I've bet Billy, I'll 83 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:16,480 Speaker 2: have the preview for this one out by Action Network 84 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 2: dot Com. I know you don't have as many solidified 85 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 2: thoughts on betting this fight, which is why I went 86 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,359 Speaker 2: ahead and took over the preview. But give me what 87 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 2: thoughts you do have on O'Malley versus Morob, whether you're 88 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 2: considering live betting this one, and then any betting possibilities 89 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 2: that come to mind for you. 90 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll start with the live betting angle. If if 91 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:38,159 Speaker 1: you ever in any fight get a better price on 92 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: Morab at any point than you did pre fight, you 93 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 1: should probably just live better. Like it's not I'm not 94 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 1: confident that'll even happen, but like if you get it, great, 95 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,039 Speaker 1: like by all means take that, Like you should never 96 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: look that gift horse in the mouth. The argument I'm 97 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 1: hearing for O'Malley is that he was injured going into 98 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: the last fight, right, But there's two parts to that one, 99 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,040 Speaker 1: Like who's to say he's not injured with something else? Now, 100 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: Like he's kind of a big lanky dude. They tend 101 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: to be less durable, Like we see more injuries in 102 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 1: guys with that build than we do guys built like Morob. 103 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 1: Just it's just how the sport works for whatever reason. 104 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 1: But the other thing is he had a hip surgery 105 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 1: less than nine months ago, so I have no idea 106 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: how long that takes to recover from exactly, but I 107 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 1: would imagine three four months at a minimum before you're 108 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 1: like really training again. So how much improvement can we 109 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 1: bank on seeing from him when he wasn't training at 110 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: full strength for you know, half of the time since 111 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 1: Marob last bought him, and Morob just continues to look 112 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: better and better in every fight. Like I was blown 113 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 1: away at the Normaga madeoff when I thought, stylistically that 114 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 1: would be the toughest fight he'd ever have, and Morob 115 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 1: just kind of rolled through it without many problems. So 116 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 1: that is what is keeping me from betting O'Malley. What 117 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,119 Speaker 1: is keeping me from betting Morob at the current price? 118 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: One He says he wants to go out and show 119 00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: his striking. I don't put a lot of faith in that, 120 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 1: with how silly Morob is just as a human in general. 121 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 1: But like you don't love to hear that, Like, please 122 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: don't do that, Morob, just go just go grapple. And 123 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:12,360 Speaker 1: then the other part of it is you can obviously 124 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:14,600 Speaker 1: get a better price on Morob four or five decision 125 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:19,239 Speaker 1: morab By decision Like, there's just his early stoppage equity 126 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 1: is so low that it's really hard to see any 127 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: reason to bet anything like that. He doesn't even really 128 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 1: attempt submissions. That's the other thing. We think of him 129 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: as this elite grappler, and he is, but he averages 130 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 1: like one submission attempt every three fights, so it's not 131 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,159 Speaker 1: really something, and sometimes those are scored when they weren't 132 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,039 Speaker 1: really trying that hard to get a submission too. So 133 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,160 Speaker 1: I just don't see any reason to bet the money 134 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 1: line on Morob. I like the light angles. I like 135 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 1: live assuming we get a better price, and O'Malley by 136 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:50,160 Speaker 1: Ko is interesting right, like this could be a rematch 137 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:54,160 Speaker 1: or a replay of the Aljamin Sterling fight. That wouldn't 138 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,719 Speaker 1: shock me. I don't see him winning a decision though, 139 00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 1: especially in New Jersey. I think the judges will be 140 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 1: a little bit friends to Morob, because I thought it 141 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 1: was some pretty friendly judging towards O'Malley in the first 142 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 1: one with that said, I like your point spread angle 143 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 1: because around where O'Malley lands three or four good punches 144 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,560 Speaker 1: and Morob just kind of wrestles him from the top 145 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 1: is hard to score. So I can see that angle too, 146 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 1: but probably nothing for me pre fight. Might get in 147 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: on Morob live if such an opportunity presents itself. 148 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, surprised that this rematch is happening. But that said, 149 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 2: you know, I should reflect upon the difference in public 150 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 2: perception of these two fighters relative to where they were previously. 151 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 2: O'Malley was being picked to win the first fight sixty 152 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 2: sixty five seventy percent of the time. Marob I feel 153 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 2: like as a fighter who the public has fallen in 154 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 2: love with, you know, the more he's won, the more 155 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:48,000 Speaker 2: he's competed. Kissing O'Malley on the back in the headlock 156 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 2: at the end of round two, I should mention, you know, 157 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 2: your point regarding the SUBMISSI attempts. Rob's submision attempts really 158 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 2: come with fifteen or twenty seconds left in the round. 159 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 2: You'll get a guy down, he'll put them in the headlock, 160 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,360 Speaker 2: and then he'll kind of hold on to the headlock. Maybe, 161 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 2: you know, look for a dars, but not really as 162 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 2: the round expires, So those submission attempts are coming with 163 00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 2: ten or fifteen seconds left in the round, basically just 164 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 2: to put a stamp on it. But I do think 165 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 2: the way the public perception on these two is shifted 166 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 2: is really interesting because Morob's a guy been betting on forever, 167 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 2: going back to I can't even think of, you know, 168 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 2: the guys he was fighting earlier in his career in 169 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 2: the division who are no longer even in the UFC anymore. 170 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 1: Lopez graand Katona is now back, but he was part 171 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: of the original Brad Katona run guys like that. There's 172 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 1: a former there's a former flyweight. 173 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 2: I'm thinking of, very fast. 174 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,320 Speaker 1: Guy with big power, John Dobson. 175 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 2: Yes, John Dobson. I mean I was thinking, like I 176 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 2: couldn't think of the fight. Yeah, John Dobson denied like 177 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 2: all eighteen takedown attempts in that fight. Morob just kind 178 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 2: of held him up the fence like he did against 179 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 2: Aldo for the whole fight. So Morob's never or I 180 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 2: should say, Morob didn't used to have the most exciting style. 181 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 2: He wasn't able to get guys to the ground as 182 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,719 Speaker 2: consistently as it seems like he is able to now. 183 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:05,839 Speaker 2: He was much more fighting against defence, clinching guys up, 184 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 2: kneeing them in the back of the legs. He really 185 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 2: beat sewn up on the ground. He was getting them 186 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 2: down on the ground or getting them up against the 187 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 2: fence and then just throwing knees to the thigh, throwing 188 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:16,320 Speaker 2: knees to the body. Like he was much more violent 189 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 2: against O'Malley and in the clinch than I think he 190 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 2: was previously. But I just want to go back to 191 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 2: the public perception thing. I feel like now everybody loves 192 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 2: Morob and the love for O'Malley has sort of faded away. 193 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 2: I bet against O'Malley virtually every fight. I've never come 194 00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 2: on this podcast and said I'm betting Sean O'Malley. I 195 00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 2: bet O'Malley when he was fighting in the Apex against 196 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 2: guys with no names to knock them out as a 197 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 2: minus five hundred favorite. Once he's actually fought and stepped 198 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 2: up against real competition, I've basically been betting against O'Malley 199 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,439 Speaker 2: every fight because I feel like he is typically overvalued 200 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 2: and he's picked at too high or percentage by the 201 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 2: public predictions. I use to incorporate into my projections. I 202 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 2: feel like this fight, he's being picked to win about 203 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 2: twenty percent of the time and well below where the 204 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 2: market expects him to be. So I find that dynamic 205 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:04,079 Speaker 2: and that shift in public perception very interesting. I don't 206 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 2: know if it's solely because Marob won the first fight 207 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 2: or just hip surgery Sean not able to knock him out. 208 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 2: He's sort of lost his star power a little bit. Billy. 209 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 2: I want to ask you, though, before we move on 210 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 2: from this fight, how have I know you've earned research 211 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 2: into this into the past or done research into this 212 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 2: in the past. The difference between fighters rematching in title 213 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 2: fights versus fighters getting an immediate rematch in a title fight. 214 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 2: Don't the champions or don't the fight? I believe the 215 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 2: fighter who won the first fight don't they win the 216 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 2: second fight at like an eighty percent plus lib. 217 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 1: The two that are the most predictive, with like enough 218 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,319 Speaker 1: of a sample size to actually care about are the 219 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 1: first fighter tends to win at a better than market rate, 220 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 1: as does the younger fighter, which is partially why I 221 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:53,840 Speaker 1: didn't mention this is because that obviously cancels out with 222 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: O'Malley being four is years younger. I think most of 223 00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 1: that is based on rematch is way down the line, though, 224 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 1: because if you know you're five or six years older 225 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 1: than me, and we fight when I'm twenty two and 226 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 1: then again when I'm twenty nine or whatever like, then 227 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 1: we're on opposite parts of the curve in terms of 228 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 1: the prime. When it's an immediate rematch, I would imagine 229 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: that the age part of it doesn't matter all that much, 230 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 1: Like how much I don't. I don't have it that 231 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,200 Speaker 1: granular where I can break that out. But you know, 232 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 1: how much worse did Morob get in the last nine months, 233 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 1: Probably not considerably. And even if O'Malley would have gotten 234 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 1: better based on his age, missing all that time with 235 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,679 Speaker 1: an injury probably cancels that out. So I'm not looking 236 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 1: too much into those just because the two that I 237 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 1: rely on the most more or less cancel out. But also, 238 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 1: like I think there's some extenuating circumstance with it being 239 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: so quick. 240 00:11:43,880 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 2: Last point, I don't think it ultimately matter. But Morob 241 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 2: is coming in with a tow injury to this fight. 242 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,280 Speaker 2: He said he's just gonna go out so off and 243 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:52,719 Speaker 2: fight with it. I don't think it ultimately matters for him. 244 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 2: The guy is such an animal. But uh yeah, the 245 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:59,160 Speaker 2: first fight wasn't particularly exciting watching it back. O'Malley, as 246 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 2: I said, wasn't really all that competitive for most of it. 247 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 2: He had some big moments which swung rounds in his favor, 248 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 2: but really a fight that should not be happening. I'm 249 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 2: surprised O'Malley wasn't forced to fight somebody else in the 250 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 2: top three. If we're getting a rematch, UFC doesn't want 251 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:15,599 Speaker 2: to lose his potential star power. They're just going to 252 00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 2: go ahead and give him another title shot. I don't 253 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 2: think it's necessarily deserved, but that said, I do think 254 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 2: he is the value side on the money line. We'll 255 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 2: move on to our fight of the night, the woman's 256 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,600 Speaker 2: bantamleke title match between Juliana Paena, who's coming in as 257 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 2: a plus five fifty underdog against Kayla Harrison Payna. The 258 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 2: biggest standing champion underdog odds aside from Niko Montagno who 259 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:41,560 Speaker 2: lost to Valentina Schevchenko. I believe Montagno was around a 260 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 2: plus eight hundred underdog against schevchenkos So Juliana maybe getting 261 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,679 Speaker 2: a little bit disrespected here. As the current champion fighting 262 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 2: Kayla Harrison, who used to compete at one fifty five 263 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 2: probably should be competing at one forty five and is 264 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,320 Speaker 2: forced to cut down to one thirty five because that 265 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 2: is the division the UFC has essentially eliminated their woman's 266 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 2: featherweight division. Billy, I believe you are taking the cardio 267 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 2: angle against Harrison given the weight cut. I kind of 268 00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 2: like this fight to go all twenty five minutes. I 269 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,680 Speaker 2: like Payn's durability. If it does end inside the distance, 270 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 2: I think it's likely Harrison via submission. I think you 271 00:13:18,040 --> 00:13:20,200 Speaker 2: leaned more towards Harrison Viako with the ground and pound. 272 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,960 Speaker 2: But give me your breakdown on this fight, whether you 273 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 2: plan on live betting it at some point on Juliana 274 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:29,640 Speaker 2: Penna and what pre fight ticket you're going in as well? 275 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, real quick. When it diverged slightly. Nico Montagno won 276 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 1: the flyweight title in December one, twenty seventeen. That event 277 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:39,960 Speaker 1: also the UFC debut of a young Shan O'Malley, So 278 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 1: just to tie everything together here and the Astroan O'Malley 279 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: was in the Comaine one of Decision where he got 280 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: three takedowns per UFC stats, which I do not remember 281 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 1: him landing three takedowns collectively in his career, but it 282 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 1: apparently happened at one point. Back to the topic at hand, Yeah, 283 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:59,560 Speaker 1: it's an interesting fight Payna, and I don't mean this 284 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:01,439 Speaker 1: as just respectfully as it's going to sound, but from 285 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:05,959 Speaker 1: a skills standpoint, might be the worst UFC champion possibly ever. 286 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,560 Speaker 1: What she's good at is being like stubborn and endurable 287 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 1: and tough, like she's in theory a jiu jitsu based fighter, 288 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 1: but she's a brown belt and has been submitted as 289 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 1: many times as she's gotten submissions. And her win over 290 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: Rocky Pennington to win this title pretty controversial split decision. 291 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 1: I didn't think she won it the other one outside 292 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 1: of just saying it was a fluke where Nunya has 293 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 1: underestimated her. It was kind of like the Homer Simpson 294 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 1: strategy where she just led a man to tire herself 295 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: out by beating on her and managed to stick around 296 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 1: and then come back in the second round. If Penya's 297 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 1: going to win, I think she has to do something 298 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 1: like that here. Like she's maybe a slightly better technical 299 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: striker than Kayla Harrison, but that is more than outweighed 300 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 1: by the athleticism difference between the two of them, and 301 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 1: with Harrison. I am't concerned though, because this is our 302 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 1: first five round bantomweight fight and it's her first time 303 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 1: making championship wait, which she did. I mean, she was 304 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 1: one thirty five on the dot, one of the first 305 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 1: people to weigh in. It was a little bit of 306 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 1: a weird way in though, because a lot of fighters 307 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,560 Speaker 1: were right on the dot despite coming in late. And 308 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 1: there's a great gift of Mario Bautista floating around where 309 00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 1: he looked very surprised. They said he weighed one hundred 310 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 1: and thirty five pounds, so I'm not sure if maybe 311 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 1: the scale was off a little bit, or the commission 312 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:24,239 Speaker 1: was just giving people an extra pound. I don't know. Regardless, 313 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 1: it's a big cut for Kayla Harrison. She didn't look 314 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 1: great down the stretch in her last fight against Catlyn 315 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: Vieira to get to this fight, so I think Kayla 316 00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: Harrison is going to win, though, but I'm worried about 317 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 1: her late. That gives me Kayla Harrison in the first 318 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 1: three rounds that is even money. It was plus one 319 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 1: point fifteen when I wrote the article about it, but 320 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: still that even money. I think that's most of her 321 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 1: win condition is going to be that early part of 322 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 1: the fight. She could obviously submit Panya she throws her. 323 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 1: I'm a little bit interested in Harrison by knockout because 324 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: she's been pretty aggressive with the ground pound when she 325 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 1: gets takedowns. And then the other The angle I'm looking 326 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 1: at is either really an openia live which after about 327 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 1: two rounds could be plus two thousand, or just something 328 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 1: absurd if Kayla comes out hard or pinion. The decision 329 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 1: only market is plus three fifty, which I think is 330 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 1: something that you might be a little bit interested in. 331 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 1: If you told me this goes all twenty five minutes, 332 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 1: I would make this money line a lot closer. So, 333 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 1: by that logic, the decision only on Penya. To be clear, 334 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 1: if you're watching this live, I prefer the live angles. 335 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 1: But if you're worried about getting down live or unable 336 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 1: or just annoying to do, which I understand, that's how 337 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 1: I would take the Penia side. And then I think 338 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: you could probably get pretty close to Obviously you can't 339 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 1: guarantee a profit, I think you're getting pretty close to 340 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 1: covering both sides if you do Harrison first three rounds 341 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 1: and then Penya and the decision only market. 342 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 2: As I said I linked to the GTD here as well, 343 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 2: eighty percent of women's bantam main events I've gone to 344 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 2: a decision. Sixty one percent of the three round fights 345 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 2: in this division go to decisions. While I make this 346 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 2: about plus one thirty, you're getting as high as plus 347 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 2: one seventy five for this fight to go all twenty 348 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 2: five minutes. I made Harrison by decision plus one ninety 349 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 2: compared to listed odds of plus two thirty. I also 350 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 2: do a show a slight edge on Payn's decision prop 351 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:14,239 Speaker 2: as well, and given the cardiodynamic, I'd rather bet this 352 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 2: fight GTD, especially at plus one seventy five compared to 353 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 2: plus two thirty on Harrison, rather than picking one of 354 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 2: the fighters by decisions, So GTD will passed for me. 355 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 2: Probably a quarter unit play there. Nothing too substantial, but 356 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 2: have to bet into the odds relative to the divisional 357 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 2: average of the ghost to the decision prop. And you know, 358 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,680 Speaker 2: Paya obviously concerns about the submission defense, but I think 359 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 2: she is super durable and will fight for your money. 360 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 2: We'll fight to stay alive in this matchup. Move on 361 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 2: to our favorite underdogs on this card. The fighter you 362 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 2: just mentioned. My favorite underdog, maybe even my favorite bet 363 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 2: on the card is Mario Bautista. As high as plus 364 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,399 Speaker 2: one seventy this morning I saw at Caesar's He's my 365 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:58,920 Speaker 2: biggest projected edge on this card. I made him plus 366 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 2: one to eighteen. In this fight against PATCHI Mix, former 367 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 2: Belatoor champion, engaged to Tatiana Suarez, a very good grappler, 368 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,719 Speaker 2: not because he's engaged to Tatiana as fars, but they 369 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 2: are going to increase. I would imagine some very good 370 00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:15,919 Speaker 2: grappling babies at some point. Now. Batista I think is 371 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:17,440 Speaker 2: the better striker the bear, and I also think he 372 00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:21,919 Speaker 2: is much better cardio. When Mix fought Rafion Stats in 373 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 2: Bellatore for the bellatour Grand Prix, my angles in that 374 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,760 Speaker 2: fight were to bet stots live because I do not 375 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 2: think Mix has the best cardio. He can grapple, he's powerful, 376 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,879 Speaker 2: but I do think he fates after round one, and 377 00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 2: I think Bautista is going to have a path to 378 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:39,639 Speaker 2: beating him by decision and to working his way back 379 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 2: into the fight in the second and third round. Mix 380 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:44,879 Speaker 2: meg it m media title shot if he wins this 381 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 2: matchup this spight. Bautista, not having the biggest name of Batista, 382 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:50,680 Speaker 2: is on a nice winning streak. I believe his last 383 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 2: win came over Jose Al though a bit controversial, also 384 00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 2: didn't fight the most exciting fight stylistically, mostly spent time 385 00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 2: holding out up against the gage like Morob did for 386 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:02,960 Speaker 2: that matter. But I do think Pachi either needs a 387 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:06,159 Speaker 2: submission or he needs extensive control time in order to 388 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,960 Speaker 2: cover his money line. And when this fight otherwise, I 389 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 2: expect Batista to land more volume and to steal a 390 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 2: decision down the stretch. So I bet Batista prefight to 391 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:16,360 Speaker 2: Pulse one twenty five, and I also think you might 392 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 2: find a better live number after round one. Billy, this 393 00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 2: is my favorite fight on the card. Aside, it is 394 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:24,360 Speaker 2: my favorite fight of the card. Forget the main event, 395 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 2: to forget the home made event. My favorite fight of 396 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:29,159 Speaker 2: the card Pachi mix against Mario Bautista. Any bets for 397 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 2: you here? 398 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm really struggling with this one. If this were 399 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 1: a five round fight, which I wish it was like 400 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:37,679 Speaker 1: a you know, UFC Atlanta main event rather than on 401 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:39,879 Speaker 1: this card, I would one hundred percent be with you 402 00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 1: on Bautista mix. His only career losses I believe are 403 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,720 Speaker 1: both five rounds, or he only has the one career loss. Yeah, 404 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:48,159 Speaker 1: it was a five rounder that Cardio angle. I just 405 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 1: I don't worry quite as much with one hundred and 406 00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 1: thirty five pounder in a three round fight, Like, you 407 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 1: gotta be real bad Cardio wise for that to be 408 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 1: an issue. Give him the weight class. With that said, 409 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,439 Speaker 1: Bautista could do the Jose Aldo fight here, Jose sorry, 410 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 1: the Jose Aldo fight here, and that's probably his best 411 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 1: pass to victory. So while I'm excited and intrigued by it, 412 00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,440 Speaker 1: like there's there's a very high chance this ends up 413 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:14,879 Speaker 1: a very frustrating fight, which would be good for Mario Bautista. 414 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 1: I like how much more dynamic mixes, and if he 415 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 1: gets we're seeing the price come down a little bit. 416 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 1: I'm very interested in him, probably more interested in him 417 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 1: for DFS than betting, just because if he does win, 418 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 1: as you pointed out, it's going to be a lot 419 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 1: of takedowns or a finish where Bautista could easily win 420 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:35,920 Speaker 1: an extremely boring fight here and we wouldn't be surprised. 421 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:38,400 Speaker 1: So no bet for me now, But it is one 422 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:41,199 Speaker 1: of my favorite fights, and yeah, Bautista live if that 423 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 1: line blows out. I don't have a problem with that. 424 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 1: It makes a lot of sense. I'm just not sure 425 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,399 Speaker 1: that we'll necessarily get a better line without him getting 426 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:49,400 Speaker 1: finished in the process. 427 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,360 Speaker 2: One consensus underdog that we have on this card, Mark 428 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 2: Chowinsky against Mark markel Madero's it's actually Choyinsky. I was 429 00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 2: watching his last regional fight and it kept saying Chotsky, 430 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 2: and it was like, that looks like it should be 431 00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 2: not pronounced Choyinsky, But I'm gonna say Choyinsky because that's 432 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 2: what the fight announcers were saying. Markel Madero is too 433 00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,199 Speaker 2: sick to fight. Last week he put on Instagram that 434 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 2: he had to withdraw from his fight because he was sick. 435 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,919 Speaker 2: Now he's flying cross country, He's had to cut weight twice, 436 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,159 Speaker 2: and he was the last fighter to get to the 437 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:22,120 Speaker 2: scales on front, which I would say that factor alone 438 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 2: probably pretty concerning, considering he had to pull out of 439 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:29,639 Speaker 2: his fight last week again, flying cross country, completely changing venues, 440 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:31,840 Speaker 2: that is quite a toll to have on your body. 441 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 2: Now he is getting a short noticed opponent and Mark Choynsky. 442 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 2: But Choinsky had a fight booked for next week, so 443 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 2: I would imagine he was in camp prepping for that fight. 444 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,800 Speaker 2: Has faced pretty low level competition fighting in the Anthony 445 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 2: Pettis FC regional promotion, but he does train with the 446 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 2: Pettis bros. In that gym, also trains with Rayfaan Stotts. 447 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 2: Boy just mentioned it is it is a reasonably good 448 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:54,560 Speaker 2: end around gym. 449 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, go ahead, see right out there too, another 450 00:21:57,640 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: good around that size guy. 451 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:01,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think you know he's training with 452 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:05,120 Speaker 2: reasonable guys despite the fact that he's fought pretty low 453 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 2: level competition. And this guy can wrestle. He was a 454 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:11,159 Speaker 2: former three time D three All American wrestler. He throws 455 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,399 Speaker 2: hard on the feed. He has very bad striking defense, 456 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 2: so I do worry about him getting clipped, but he's 457 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 2: never been KOed, has shown good durability. I do think 458 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 2: he's going to get hit hard by Baderos, but I 459 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 2: like the way he checks leg kicks. So if he 460 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:24,359 Speaker 2: can check Madero's leg kicks and then get on top, 461 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 2: initiates some takedowns, get to the back control from there, 462 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:30,920 Speaker 2: I do think Choinski has all of the grappling upside 463 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 2: at plus one seventy. I also like this fight to 464 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:36,639 Speaker 2: go to a decision. I projected that line at about 465 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,639 Speaker 2: minus one fifty five, so choins Sky Maderos goes to 466 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,640 Speaker 2: decision and also choint Sky on the money line at 467 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 2: plus one seventy. Sorry, I projected the GTV line at 468 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,959 Speaker 2: minus one ninety. You can bet it at minus one 469 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 2: fifty five. And then lastly, obviously correlated value on choint 470 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 2: Sky to win by decision at plus for forty im 471 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,639 Speaker 2: that line plus three or five. So, Billy, are you 472 00:22:57,720 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 2: just playing Choyinsky on the money line here? And how 473 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:01,639 Speaker 2: did you evaluate this one? Break down the tape. 474 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you've hit pretty much everything. I was 475 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:06,680 Speaker 1: gonna say the sickness was the big factor that first 476 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,920 Speaker 1: got me into that, But then you see the guys 477 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:11,680 Speaker 1: a D three wrestler. The only thing you didn't mention, 478 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 1: I think is that Maderos was taken down twice and 479 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:17,200 Speaker 1: controlled for seven and a half minutes by Austin Hubbard 480 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,679 Speaker 1: in his last fight, and Troynsky is at the very 481 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 1: least a much better wrestler than that. Like, I don't know, 482 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 1: it's hard to find a ton of tape on him, 483 00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 1: and even the tape you find it's fighting guys that 484 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 1: doesn't really tell you too much. I would be very 485 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 1: confident in saying that if we put some singlets and 486 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 1: earguards on Austin Hubbard and Mark Troynsky, the Toytski would 487 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:40,440 Speaker 1: come out on top. So we've got that going for us. Yeah, 488 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:42,120 Speaker 1: just a straight up money line. I wish I would 489 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 1: have got it sooner because he was north of two 490 00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:45,879 Speaker 1: to one earlier in the week. But then this is 491 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:48,639 Speaker 1: another one where I believe I have toints Ski and 492 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: one hundred percent of my DFS lineups this week. Like, 493 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 1: it's really hard to find cheap guys, and I'm absolutely 494 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 1: love with them there. So I'd probably come up with 495 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,199 Speaker 1: some other angles if I weren't so exposed to him 496 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:01,680 Speaker 1: in a different way. It's gonna suck, you know if, 497 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 1: as you pointed out, that striking defense fails him. But 498 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:07,399 Speaker 1: it just I think he's a great play with the 499 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:11,239 Speaker 1: wrestling and yeah, I'm really into this one. You hit 500 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 1: all the bases. 501 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:15,000 Speaker 2: Let's get into Billy's Underdog plays for this week, and 502 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 2: you can go yard all season long with Underdog's Pick 503 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:19,120 Speaker 2: Them game.

Since we're talking UFC today, Billy, 514 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 2: what are you cooking up for underdog for hires and 515 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 2: lowers this weekend? 516 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm looking at a fight that we are both 517 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:49,439 Speaker 1: in consensus on I'm going to talk about, and that 518 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:52,640 Speaker 1: is the Sentae Luca versus Kevin Holland. I want Holland 519 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:56,000 Speaker 1: lower than forty six point five significant strikes. The Santa 520 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 1: Luka has been knocked out badly a couple of times here. 521 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,720 Speaker 1: I don't think he could take forty seven significant strikes 522 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 1: and remain conscious. So that one makes it pretty easy, 523 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 1: because you know, even if Holland is landing a bunch 524 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:08,639 Speaker 1: of strikes, I don't think he gets to that number. 525 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 1: And then on the flip side also Vicente Luke lower 526 00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,640 Speaker 1: than thirty eight point five significant strikes hard to land, 527 00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,640 Speaker 1: significant strikes of your own if you are unconscious, which 528 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:19,199 Speaker 1: is what I think is going to happen in this 529 00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 1: fight barely shortly love that we can do this from Underdog, 530 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 1: where we take both sides of the same fight. There's 531 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 1: some really fun ways to build around that. That is 532 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:30,160 Speaker 1: the one I'm looking at this week.

Concern with 541 00:25:56,760 --> 00:25:59,879 Speaker 1: your play called one eight hundred Gambler or visit NCP 542 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 1: Gambling dot Org, in Arizona called one eight hundred Next 543 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:07,400 Speaker 1: Step or texts next step to five three three four two, 544 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 1: and in New York called the twenty four seven Hopeline 545 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 1: at one eight seven seven Hope and Why or text 546 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 1: Hope and Why, And Sean, we're getting into the props. 547 00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 1: I mentioned the first fight that we're in agreement on. 548 00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 1: Tell me why you like Kevin Holland by knockout. Yeah. 549 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:27,160 Speaker 2: Luka's loss against Faquing Buckley remains extremely concerning and very awkward. 550 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 2: Now we've heard in the past about him having a 551 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:32,400 Speaker 2: brain believe doctors telling him to stop fighting, and then 552 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,479 Speaker 2: in that Buckley fight he just kind of turtled up 553 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 2: and what the fight end, came back up won. You know, 554 00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:41,800 Speaker 2: his next fight, but primarily through grappling, really didn't spend 555 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 2: much time at distance. So you know, to your point 556 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:47,359 Speaker 2: about playing the lower on underdog on Luca's significant strikes, 557 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 2: if he's going to win here, it's probably going to 558 00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:52,919 Speaker 2: be through grappling, either submitting Kevin Holland or in some 559 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:55,160 Speaker 2: way getting on top of Holland and holding him down. 560 00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 2: We've seen Luke in the past out grapple guys. That said, 561 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:01,639 Speaker 2: we've also discussed Billy the difference between middleweight Calvin Holland 562 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:05,040 Speaker 2: and welter weight Kevin Holland, and this is welterweight Kevin 563 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:08,920 Speaker 2: Holland here four or four inches taller six inchre each advantage. 564 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:12,840 Speaker 2: One of the most efficient significant strikers in the history 565 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 2: of this promotion, It's conceivable that Luke grapples. I think 566 00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 2: Collin's defensive grappling tends to get underrated, not his defensive wrestling, 567 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 2: which does get underrated at one hundred and seventy pounds, 568 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,639 Speaker 2: but his overall defense of jiu jitsu. I think he's 569 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 2: very competent in terms of his jiu jitsu abilities. 570 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:29,640 Speaker 1: I expect him. 571 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 2: If Luke does land to take down, I expect Holland 572 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 2: to scramble back to his feet, and I do think 573 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:38,680 Speaker 2: within a matter of forty significant strikes or less, Kevin 574 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:42,200 Speaker 2: Holland would knock out for Sente Luka at some point. 575 00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 2: So yeah, I think just Luke could be completely washed 576 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:48,160 Speaker 2: at this point. Obviously came back and won his last fight, 577 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 2: but really since that knockout loss against Jeff Neil, I 578 00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 2: don't think he's been the same fighter, and I think 579 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 2: he had the brain bleed issue even before that. So 580 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,639 Speaker 2: I projected Holland's k low line at about plus one fifty. 581 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:02,159 Speaker 2: I would bet that down to plus one sixty. And 582 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,639 Speaker 2: I also like the fight to end inside the distance 583 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,679 Speaker 2: as well, just I put more of that equity on Howland. 584 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 2: I think Luk would probably win more of a control 585 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 2: based wrestling decision if he does win. Even with that, 586 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,880 Speaker 2: I don't think he's landing many significant strikes. So any 587 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:18,919 Speaker 2: other thoughts that you had on the fight, aside from 588 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:19,919 Speaker 2: the ones that you're to give. 589 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:23,160 Speaker 1: Up, Yeah, I'm less worried, I think than the grappling 590 00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 1: even than you are. And here's why Luke has seven 591 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:29,040 Speaker 1: submissions between the UFC and The Ultimate Fighter. Nf' going 592 00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:31,959 Speaker 1: to count that all seven of those are either anacondo 593 00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:34,919 Speaker 1: or dars chokes, which are effectively the same choke. A 594 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:36,680 Speaker 1: bunch of jiu jitsu people are gonna yell at me 595 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 1: for saying that it's the same choke. It's just a 596 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 1: different arm that goes in first. Almost all of those 597 00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:43,680 Speaker 1: are because his opponent shot, which is like the only 598 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:45,880 Speaker 1: position you can do those from. Again, that's not one 599 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:48,160 Speaker 1: hundred percent ture. Don't yell at me jiu jitsu nerds, 600 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 1: but that is a thing. Kevin Allen's not gonna shoot 601 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:53,320 Speaker 1: on Vicente Luke. Why would he do that? He knows 602 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:56,280 Speaker 1: better than that. So even the win against Timba Grimbo. 603 00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 1: Grimbo took like a bad shot because Luke hit him, 604 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 1: which put him in position to get anaconda choke. Kevin 605 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 1: Holland's not gonna like Kevin Holland'll occasionally take you down 606 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 1: and then realize his mistake and let you up, even 607 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 1: though he should win the fight from there, So that 608 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 1: makes me feel a little bit better than that. In 609 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 1: addition to the Kevin Holland ko, I was like the 610 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:19,560 Speaker 1: under one and a half at plus one eight. The 611 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 1: only way I see, honestly, the only way I see 612 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 1: Luk winning it is if Kevin Holland gets clipped and 613 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 1: then kind of falls into a submission like that, which 614 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:30,560 Speaker 1: I think is more likely early than late. I don't 615 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:32,920 Speaker 1: think Luk has the wrestling to really control him to 616 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:35,480 Speaker 1: a decision. So my logic there, if we get a 617 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:37,600 Speaker 1: Holland knockout in the first half of the fight, we 618 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:40,959 Speaker 1: win both bets. Something else happens early, we still make 619 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 1: a profit on both. I have the full preview up 620 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 1: on Action network dot Com for this fight, where I 621 00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:47,200 Speaker 1: went a little bit more in depth on that, but 622 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 1: we're we're seeing it pretty much the same way. 623 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I was misremembering when the RDA fight for Luke 624 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 2: took place. That was before OJAQM. Buckley fight, his only fight, 625 00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 2: as you said, since the Buckley knockout, the very aw 626 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 2: Buckley finish. He fought them bagrimbo for fifty five seconds. 627 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:05,800 Speaker 2: Everybody bet Luka in that fight. At least it seemed 628 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 2: like everybody's sharp bet lukea in that fight, big plus money. 629 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 2: He ended up getting the finished. But that fight did 630 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 2: not play out at all. We did not really see 631 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 2: him get hit. Don't really know still how he's going 632 00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 2: to respond to actually taking damage. So I think holling 633 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 2: Ko might be quick and might look like free money 634 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 2: this week, and it's very possible. I'm not saying it's guaranteed, 635 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 2: but if that does hit, I think it might be 636 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:30,280 Speaker 2: quick and it might look free. Let's move on to 637 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:32,920 Speaker 2: another fight that I like quite a bit from a 638 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:36,400 Speaker 2: proper perspective. That's Sergei Spibach, who's minus one thirty against 639 00:30:36,400 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 2: Waldo Courteza Costa plus one ten. I think speedbacks move 640 00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:41,720 Speaker 2: closer to minus one forty this morning. I do kind 641 00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 2: of like him on the money line. I projected him 642 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 2: closer to minus one fifty, but I also like this fight. 643 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:48,520 Speaker 2: To end inside the distance, and I prefer these speedback 644 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 2: side of things if it is going to end inside 645 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:54,959 Speaker 2: the distance. Waldough did look bigger on the scales, He's 646 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 2: about fifteen pounds heavier, but I still think Speedback is 647 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:01,280 Speaker 2: the more natural heavyweight of the two. Waldo just seems 648 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:05,840 Speaker 2: like a blown up guy in general. Former baseball player Spevac, 649 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:08,280 Speaker 2: you know, has much more of a decorated grappling history 650 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 2: and Waldo. The one time he faced a grappler in 651 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 2: the UC was Marcos Ragiri. Delima basically got stuck on 652 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 2: his back for the entire fight. He was able to 653 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 2: put Rebella's to Spain on his back for the entire fight, 654 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 2: meaning Waldo, But when he's the one actually getting grappled, 655 00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 2: I really don't think he's able to offer any resistance. 656 00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 2: He's also not training at a particularly prestigious gym where 657 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 2: I think he's likely to make improvements to that part 658 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:32,960 Speaker 2: of his game. So heavyweights in general, I feel like 659 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 2: ten to. 660 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:34,960 Speaker 1: Develop a little bit slower. 661 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 2: I don't think Waldo has the defensive grappling to stop 662 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 2: Sergey from getting the positions he wants to. As I 663 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 2: said Sergei on the money Line, at about minus one forty, 664 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 2: but I make his subprop about two to one. You 665 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 2: can bet that at plus three sixty, and I make 666 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:51,240 Speaker 2: his inside the distance line about plus one thirteen. You 667 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:54,640 Speaker 2: can bet that at plus one eighty. So spevac inside 668 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:57,800 Speaker 2: the distance maybe the money line as well. Billy, what 669 00:31:57,840 --> 00:31:58,640 Speaker 2: are your thoughts on this fight? 670 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, took be back straight up. I've mentioned it in 671 00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:05,120 Speaker 1: the past that there's almost two different heavyweight divisions where 672 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:08,360 Speaker 1: there's like seven or eight guys who are legitimately that 673 00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 1: size and have UFC level skills, and then there's the 674 00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 1: rest of the guys that just fill cards or let 675 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 1: Tom Aspotball knock them out in twelve seconds or whatever. 676 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:19,120 Speaker 1: And Saws a boy has exclusively fought in that latter group. 677 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:20,960 Speaker 1: Like if you look at the name of his win, 678 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 1: it's hilarious something the guy Jared Vandera, Chase Sherman, Lucas Preski, 679 00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:29,520 Speaker 1: eighty year old Andre Rolovski, Rebellas Daspanna, the taekwondo fighter 680 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 1: who went one and whatever in the UFC, and then 681 00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:34,960 Speaker 1: Ryan Span who is a light heavyweight coming up and 682 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 1: probably shouldn't have done that. Are the list of his 683 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 1: wins Spivak's resume isn't as great in terms of wins 684 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:44,960 Speaker 1: and losses, but he's fought sierro Ghn, Marcine Taibera, Gileton Almeida, 685 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 1: choked out Derek Lewis, like he's fought lost to Tom Aspaaal, 686 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:52,840 Speaker 1: Like he's fought all the top ranked UFC heavyweights and 687 00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:55,760 Speaker 1: been okay any somehow three years younger because he didn't 688 00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:58,640 Speaker 1: spend the early part of his athletic career as a 689 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 1: single a baseball player. So yeah, I can't believe these 690 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 1: lines are this close. I took minus one thirty five 691 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:07,000 Speaker 1: on Spivack. I'm with you anything up to about minus 692 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 1: one fifty or so. I like the sub angle, but like, 693 00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:12,240 Speaker 1: would it shock you if he just knocked him out 694 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 1: pretty fast? Because cortez A Costa throws a lot of punches, 695 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:18,160 Speaker 1: but he's not like a technical striker, like he just 696 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:21,440 Speaker 1: does volume. So also he lost on Darrera Loski. I 697 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 1: don't care what the official record says. That's that's Those 698 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,800 Speaker 1: are the end of my thoughts on Salso, boy shout 699 00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 1: out to him for being able to build a six 700 00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:31,920 Speaker 1: to one UFC record without actually being that great at fighting. 701 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 1: But here we are. 702 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 2: Another fight on the car that you're targeting from a 703 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:38,360 Speaker 2: proper respective before I get to my final one. Juice 704 00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 2: sang you against Jackisarahge. You've got an alternative nickname that 705 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 2: you want to give to juiceing you, but you've also 706 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:45,760 Speaker 2: got a way that you want to bet on this agun. 707 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,720 Speaker 1: Yeah. His official nickname is Zombie Junior because he trains 708 00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 1: with the Korean Zombie, which is awesome. But I think 709 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 1: his nickname should be the Bear, and we just put 710 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:55,680 Speaker 1: that in front of his name so then he can 711 00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,320 Speaker 1: be Paul Craig Junior. Let you guys say that one 712 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 1: out loud and figure out how we get there. I 713 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 1: like you in rounds one or two in minus one 714 00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 1: twenty at Jeka Sarah Gui Saragi. I've heard it said 715 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:13,440 Speaker 1: both ways. Jeka. I will say the Zombie Junior nickname 716 00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:16,160 Speaker 1: is appropriate because I watched some tape on you and 717 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:19,400 Speaker 1: he just marches forward throwing bombs. His last fight he 718 00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:21,480 Speaker 1: won in like seventy five seconds, but managed to get 719 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:24,520 Speaker 1: himself rocked a couple times in there. But much like 720 00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:27,960 Speaker 1: the original Korean Zombie, like all these Korean fighters just 721 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 1: seem to have granite chins, heavy hands, and like zero 722 00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:34,839 Speaker 1: interest in striking defense, which is also kind of how 723 00:34:34,880 --> 00:34:40,520 Speaker 1: Saraki fights, but much worse. Athlete less durability and less power. 724 00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:42,920 Speaker 1: These guys are just gonna trade. They're just gonna throw 725 00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:44,600 Speaker 1: real hard. I think you gets it done. He's a 726 00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:48,120 Speaker 1: huge favorite, and obviously if we expect to finish, it's 727 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:50,799 Speaker 1: likely to happen sooner rather than later. So I like that. 728 00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:53,479 Speaker 1: I like you by knockout. The only reason I didn't 729 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:55,799 Speaker 1: take you by knockout and this is hilarious to talk 730 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,360 Speaker 1: about grammatically because it seems like I'm saying Sean Zillo 731 00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,640 Speaker 1: is fighting tomorrow and newer. But the only reason I 732 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 1: didn't take you by knockout is that Sergi has struggled 733 00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:07,279 Speaker 1: on the ground so much that it wouldn't shock me 734 00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 1: to see a club and sab or, you know, get 735 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:10,919 Speaker 1: him against the fence and just kind of throw him down. 736 00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 1: I'm actually pretty high on you as a prospect, very athletic. 737 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,480 Speaker 1: Would like to see him ever defend strikes, but it worst, 738 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:19,680 Speaker 1: he'll be like a fun guy to have around, even 739 00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 1: if he doesn't challenge the top of the rankings. 740 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:24,320 Speaker 2: You're high and me as a prospect that's very nicey 741 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 2: to stay a billy. Let's talk about one more fight 742 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:30,640 Speaker 2: from a proper perspective. Arianna da Silva used to be 743 00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:34,319 Speaker 2: Arianalypsky going against Wayang Kong. You'll find Ariana listed as 744 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 2: Ariannalypsky in some places Ariana da Silva and others same 745 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 2: fighter just had a name change. But she did miss 746 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,319 Speaker 2: weight by six pounds on Friday. We did not have 747 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:44,960 Speaker 2: official confirmation yet that this fight will continue to go on. 748 00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 2: I'd imagine Wayang Kong will happily accept the fight if 749 00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:50,520 Speaker 2: you're going to come in your face painted like the Joker. 750 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,720 Speaker 2: You can't cancel a fight over a six pounds weight miss. 751 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,960 Speaker 2: But this this division does have a decision rate on 752 00:35:57,120 --> 00:36:00,879 Speaker 2: average of sixty eight percent across three round fight. You're 753 00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:02,920 Speaker 2: getting decent odds here, I think right around to pick 754 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:06,120 Speaker 2: them for this fight to go to decision. Lipsky to me, 755 00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:08,320 Speaker 2: she didn't get finished on the feed by Priscilla Catchuera. 756 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,959 Speaker 2: She ate some big punches, but generally I do find 757 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:14,719 Speaker 2: she's getting finished when she's getting out grappled by opponents 758 00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:17,120 Speaker 2: via ground and pound. You see a lot of knockouts 759 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 2: on her record. Typically those are tkos that are coming 760 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:22,759 Speaker 2: with her back flat on the mat. I think these 761 00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:25,960 Speaker 2: two probably strike it out for fifteen minutes unless Lipski 762 00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:28,440 Speaker 2: is the one who's able to land takedown. She does 763 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,480 Speaker 2: have some good offensive submission skills of her own, she 764 00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:34,320 Speaker 2: just tends to get outworked when she's the one stuck 765 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:38,240 Speaker 2: on bottom. So GTD beteen Ariana, Dusilva and Kong Wang 766 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:42,120 Speaker 2: at about minus one point fifteen Indie Woman's flyweight division 767 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:44,800 Speaker 2: compared as I said, to a divisional average of about 768 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:46,799 Speaker 2: sixty eight percent of minus two twelve and plied. These 769 00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 2: are both violent fighters. Will not be surprised if this 770 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:52,280 Speaker 2: one ends via finished. Just have to bet this line 771 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:55,839 Speaker 2: compared to the divisional average, which is more than ten 772 00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:59,040 Speaker 2: percent above where the line is set. Billy, Any thoughts 773 00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:00,920 Speaker 2: on DaSilva again Wynkong. 774 00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:04,279 Speaker 1: Yeah, until the weight miss, I thought this was going 775 00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:06,760 Speaker 1: to be a closer fight than the betting line implies. 776 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:10,440 Speaker 1: But six pounds is a lot, especially with how generous 777 00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:12,359 Speaker 1: the scale seemed to beat other fighters, because she might 778 00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:15,080 Speaker 1: have actually missed by seven or eight based on everybody 779 00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:18,240 Speaker 1: else's reactions. So I'm staying away from it, and partially 780 00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 1: because I'm not entirely sure this fight still happens, So 781 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:26,000 Speaker 1: I like your angle. I almost bet Lipski da Silva 782 00:37:26,040 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 1: whatever we're calling her early in the week, just because 783 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:30,759 Speaker 1: it did seem like an outsized line. I don't think 784 00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:33,920 Speaker 1: wyn Kong is as good as she is fun if 785 00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:35,879 Speaker 1: that makes sense, Like she does her whole joker thing. 786 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:39,239 Speaker 1: We all got excited because she knocked out Victoria Leonardo 787 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:41,879 Speaker 1: in the first round of her UFC debut, But that's 788 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:45,880 Speaker 1: Victoria Leonardo who went I don't know that one and 789 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:48,560 Speaker 1: four in the promotion and got finished by everybody, So 790 00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:51,400 Speaker 1: don't you know, don't put too much faith in that. 791 00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:53,080 Speaker 1: I think this will actually be a closer fight than 792 00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:57,400 Speaker 1: the money line implies if Lipski isn't totally drained or 793 00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,560 Speaker 1: the fight gets canceled or didn't train at all, why 794 00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:02,320 Speaker 1: she's overweight. There's just to my factors. 795 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:04,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was just a memorable knockout, like the sound 796 00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:07,720 Speaker 2: physically of the impact, it looked like a civilian fighting 797 00:38:07,719 --> 00:38:10,399 Speaker 2: and professional fighter, like that's that's legitimately what. 798 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:13,640 Speaker 1: It will look like. Yeah, because it actually was. 799 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:17,080 Speaker 2: Yes, uh, but yeah, it was a memorable knockout in 800 00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:20,160 Speaker 2: terms of the impact. I think Kongong has three knockouts 801 00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:22,880 Speaker 2: and eighteen career fights like this is still the woman's 802 00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:25,839 Speaker 2: flyweight division. Like you, you have to recognize that the 803 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:29,439 Speaker 2: power and the relative power of these fighters really only 804 00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:33,520 Speaker 2: produces finishes. Even if you're gonna say Kong is a 805 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:36,480 Speaker 2: substantial finisher relative to the rest of the division, what 806 00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:39,279 Speaker 2: is she still like forty likely to finish a fight 807 00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 2: forty five percent likely? So getting the GTD at minus 808 00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:44,839 Speaker 2: one fifteen I think is a fair price. We have 809 00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:48,560 Speaker 2: two bets on one fight in terms of our best 810 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,719 Speaker 2: bets for this weekend's card. I believe the outcomes are 811 00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:54,919 Speaker 2: very correlated to one another as well. I'm sure Billy 812 00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:58,320 Speaker 2: would agree with that too. That's the Joe Pifer Kelvin 813 00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:01,120 Speaker 2: Gastolin fight. I like the fight go to decision. Billy 814 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:04,480 Speaker 2: is taking a bit riskier of a spot on Gaslum 815 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:07,120 Speaker 2: on the money line. I'll just say my piece first, 816 00:39:07,440 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 2: this divisional average, or I should say this, this division 817 00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:13,759 Speaker 2: goes to this division goes to decision on forty five 818 00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:17,840 Speaker 2: percent clip on average. However, given the durability of both fighters, 819 00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:20,520 Speaker 2: I have this one at about fifty seven percent or 820 00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:23,440 Speaker 2: minus one thirty. I would bet this up to minus 821 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 2: one twenty you can get plus money currently on the 822 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:28,400 Speaker 2: to reach a decision. I think most of it just 823 00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:31,880 Speaker 2: comes down to does Joe Pifer submit Calvin Gaslim or not, 824 00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:35,000 Speaker 2: because I think Gostlm is extremely durable. I think Piper 825 00:39:35,080 --> 00:39:38,200 Speaker 2: is extremely durable, but Pifer is bigger than Gaslm. If 826 00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:40,520 Speaker 2: he's able to get on top and submit him, I 827 00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:43,920 Speaker 2: think that's the likeliest way that this one ends. Inside 828 00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:46,800 Speaker 2: the distance. Gaslum has been submitted three times, but typically 829 00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:50,640 Speaker 2: by better grapplers than what I perceive. Pypher asked hyperbaried 830 00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,080 Speaker 2: Anderson round one. I think his cardio does tend to 831 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:55,240 Speaker 2: slip a little bit in rounds two. In round three 832 00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:58,279 Speaker 2: obviously lost that five round decision to Jack Ermanson that 833 00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:00,000 Speaker 2: we were both on. I think he is enough card 834 00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:02,719 Speaker 2: to sustain for fifteen minutes, but I think Gaslin has 835 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:05,600 Speaker 2: a path to winning this fight in rounds two in 836 00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:08,160 Speaker 2: rounds three, So pre fight goes the decision for me, 837 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:12,239 Speaker 2: and then I'll be targeting Gaslum live after round one. 838 00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:14,480 Speaker 2: Billy's gonna have a pre fight bet on Gaslam. Tell 839 00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 2: me what you saw in this matchup, Billy, and I'd 840 00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:18,439 Speaker 2: imagine you were looking for a live number after round 841 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:18,839 Speaker 2: one as well. 842 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I should be clear that I moved this to 843 00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:23,879 Speaker 1: my best bet just so we could both talk about 844 00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 1: the same fight. If I had a gun into my head, 845 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:27,959 Speaker 1: I think d Troinsky would probably be my actual best 846 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:30,359 Speaker 1: bet on the card, although by the time you listen 847 00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:32,319 Speaker 1: to this, the line might have dropped enough that that's 848 00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:36,600 Speaker 1: not true. But I digress. Yeah, I don't understand Gasolam 849 00:40:36,719 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 1: is a three to one underdog here. He just fought 850 00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:43,080 Speaker 1: much much better competition than Joe Pifer. Joe Pifer's best 851 00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:46,960 Speaker 1: attribute is his one punched knockout power, and like scientists 852 00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:49,680 Speaker 1: are still debating if it's even possible for Kelvin Gaslam 853 00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:52,160 Speaker 1: to be knocked out, because it's never happened. The only 854 00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 1: person ever to drop him was like a prime Israel 855 00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:57,080 Speaker 1: outa Sonya who is just you know, mauling people, and 856 00:40:57,120 --> 00:40:59,480 Speaker 1: Gastolam made it to the end through five rounds of 857 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:03,480 Speaker 1: getting stro by Israel at Asnia. I don't see Joe 858 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:06,560 Speaker 1: Pifer putt him away early, and if Joe Plifer tries 859 00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:08,960 Speaker 1: to put him away early, Joe Pifer will be very tired. 860 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:12,600 Speaker 1: Not a guy with great cardio it's I wish this 861 00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:15,520 Speaker 1: fight had happened in Mexico City, where're supposed to because 862 00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,440 Speaker 1: Pifer would have been cooked after like six minutes in 863 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:21,440 Speaker 1: that one. Here at you know, normal altitude, I'm not 864 00:41:21,640 --> 00:41:24,920 Speaker 1: as worried about that, But yeah, love Calvin gaslom at 865 00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:27,640 Speaker 1: three to one. Underdog think he dominates the latter portion 866 00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:30,200 Speaker 1: of this fight. I'm not sure it's enough if he 867 00:41:30,280 --> 00:41:32,680 Speaker 1: loses the early round to like come back and pick 868 00:41:32,719 --> 00:41:35,719 Speaker 1: over on the decision. But yeah, also Calvin gaslam live. 869 00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:38,640 Speaker 1: If he does lose that first round, we could get 870 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:40,319 Speaker 1: five or six to one, So that's great bad as 871 00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:41,239 Speaker 1: well a fighter. 872 00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:43,200 Speaker 2: We're goo a bet last week who got rebooked for 873 00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:47,920 Speaker 2: this week. Alexander Gustafson is fighting Kaitlin Chaos Williams. You 874 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:51,040 Speaker 2: like Williams here considering the stylistic matchup. You mentioned some 875 00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:54,400 Speaker 2: things last week about gustavson ceiling and the type of 876 00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:56,680 Speaker 2: fighter he might have issued with. We both like gust 877 00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:58,600 Speaker 2: of Sin a lot in the Apex, just because that 878 00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:01,840 Speaker 2: does lend itself his fighting style. Now fighting in a 879 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:06,160 Speaker 2: bigger cage against the longer, very powerful opponent who can 880 00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:08,960 Speaker 2: probably deny the takedowns or at least get himself out 881 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:11,520 Speaker 2: of the clinch with pure strength. Do you think Williams 882 00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:13,440 Speaker 2: is probably the side of this fight, or at least 883 00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:15,880 Speaker 2: you would not be betting on Gusts at dog outs correct. 884 00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:18,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm glad you mentioned that one. I've gone back 885 00:42:18,600 --> 00:42:20,239 Speaker 1: and forth. I said a couple days ago when we 886 00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 1: were talking that I was confident in Chaos. The only 887 00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:28,600 Speaker 1: concern I have is it Gustafson's style is so specific 888 00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:30,400 Speaker 1: to him, Like there's not a lot of greco or 889 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:33,840 Speaker 1: judo people in MMA these days that that's someone I 890 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,800 Speaker 1: would want a full camp to prepare for. And Williams 891 00:42:36,840 --> 00:42:39,200 Speaker 1: has had like three or four different opponents on two 892 00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:41,440 Speaker 1: different events by the time we're getting to this one, 893 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 1: so it's not like he was training specifically for Gustafson. 894 00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:46,319 Speaker 1: Where I have you Gustafson as the guy. He's gonna 895 00:42:46,320 --> 00:42:48,160 Speaker 1: do the same thing no matter who he's fighting, He's 896 00:42:48,160 --> 00:42:50,880 Speaker 1: gonna throw really hard. If it doesn't knock you out, 897 00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:54,279 Speaker 1: hopefully get a clinching at a takedown. So that is, 898 00:42:54,520 --> 00:42:56,560 Speaker 1: at least at the time, keeping me away from chaos. 899 00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:59,720 Speaker 1: I do think it's about about the worst matchup style 900 00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:04,640 Speaker 1: of Gospison, though Love this one for DFS because William 901 00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:07,520 Speaker 1: struggles when he gets scrappled. Both guys hit really hard. 902 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:09,560 Speaker 1: I think it's a bad stylistic match out. Like I 903 00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:12,399 Speaker 1: think we're gonna get a lot of DFS points from 904 00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:14,920 Speaker 1: the winner of this one. I'm just not quite confident 905 00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:16,400 Speaker 1: enough in who the winner is going to be to 906 00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:17,279 Speaker 1: pick a side on it. 907 00:43:17,640 --> 00:43:19,399 Speaker 2: One other fight, I want to mention the Flyway bout 908 00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:21,640 Speaker 2: between Bruno Silva and Josh Fan. I do think this 909 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:23,880 Speaker 2: money line is getting a little bit wide. Josh Fan 910 00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:26,400 Speaker 2: is much younger. I'd expect him to take over the 911 00:43:26,440 --> 00:43:28,880 Speaker 2: fight in the second and third rounds. But Bruno Silva 912 00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:32,800 Speaker 2: is a very well rounded, talented fighter, and he's coming 913 00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,239 Speaker 2: off of a loss against Menel Coop where he was 914 00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:37,880 Speaker 2: obviously outclassed, but he did put his foot on the 915 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:41,279 Speaker 2: gas pedal and put himself in danger trying to get 916 00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:43,719 Speaker 2: anything and trying to finish that fight. It's a bunch 917 00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:45,520 Speaker 2: of nice wins in the UFC. I believe he started 918 00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:47,960 Speaker 2: out with a three fight losing streak and then ended 919 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:51,840 Speaker 2: up rallying back with a four fight winning streak. Obviously, 920 00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:54,440 Speaker 2: that lost the Cop was expected. He was also a 921 00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:57,239 Speaker 2: very big dog in that fight, but I think he's 922 00:43:57,280 --> 00:44:00,319 Speaker 2: going to have opportunities to hit Josh Fan, who is 923 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 2: very hit able and a very good offensive fighter, but 924 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:05,560 Speaker 2: I think leaves himself open defensively. And also I think 925 00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:08,319 Speaker 2: Silva's gonna have a chance to potentially finish this fight 926 00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:10,839 Speaker 2: via submission in round one if he's able to get 927 00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:12,879 Speaker 2: the grappling going at all. Big age gap, as I said, 928 00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:15,279 Speaker 2: between these two, Van should take over in the second 929 00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:18,359 Speaker 2: and third rounds. I probably like Van to win by 930 00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:21,160 Speaker 2: round two or round three knockout, but the money line 931 00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:24,799 Speaker 2: to me is quite wide. Considering Silva's skill set, I 932 00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:27,319 Speaker 2: feel like he's being viewed as a guy who's completely washed, 933 00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:30,320 Speaker 2: when in fact I think he's still a very skulled. 934 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:30,840 Speaker 1: And dangerous fighter. 935 00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:32,880 Speaker 2: Do you have any thoughts on that fight, Billy, than 936 00:44:32,960 --> 00:44:34,719 Speaker 2: any of the thoughts on any other fights before we 937 00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:35,279 Speaker 2: get out of here. 938 00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:37,520 Speaker 1: I do. I really like that read. I just think 939 00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:40,160 Speaker 1: I would take the like was it plus seven to 940 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:42,480 Speaker 1: fifty plus eight hundred or so on Silva to get 941 00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:45,239 Speaker 1: a finish. It just seems if he's gonna win, I 942 00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:47,920 Speaker 1: think that should be a bigger percentage. Josh Van throws 943 00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:50,480 Speaker 1: with so much volume that you almost feel like any 944 00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:52,840 Speaker 1: round that goes to the judges should just automatically go 945 00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:54,960 Speaker 1: to him because he's gonna hit you. Like, I think 946 00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:57,840 Speaker 1: he's landing close to nine significant strikes per minute in 947 00:44:57,880 --> 00:44:59,920 Speaker 1: the UFC, which is just insane. 948 00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:03,400 Speaker 2: Sela I landed on fifty four percent, so he's attempting 949 00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:06,440 Speaker 2: like sixteen strikes a minute. That's great, fifteen and a half, 950 00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:07,120 Speaker 2: it's crazy. 951 00:45:07,320 --> 00:45:09,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, Like every four seconds he's trying to hit you. 952 00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:13,120 Speaker 1: With Bruno Selva averages three point five four. So if 953 00:45:13,160 --> 00:45:15,600 Speaker 1: he's not getting a finish, you know, you can also 954 00:45:15,600 --> 00:45:17,560 Speaker 1: go finish only money line. I don't know what that is, 955 00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:20,080 Speaker 1: but I like to read overall because Bruno Slova has 956 00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:23,480 Speaker 1: huge power and Josh Van got knocked out by Charles Johnson, 957 00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:25,920 Speaker 1: so like I see it, but I just worry about judging. 958 00:45:26,320 --> 00:45:28,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, and they're the same size as well, just eleven 959 00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:31,239 Speaker 2: year age gap obviously concerning I think Van round two, 960 00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:34,160 Speaker 2: round three probably had that one plays out Van live 961 00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:37,080 Speaker 2: after round one could be a good spot as well 962 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:39,400 Speaker 2: if that money line moves in.
