The main event Jered 14 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 2: Cannonier plus one ninety Gregory Robocopjrodriguez minus two twenty five 15 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:08,759 Speaker 2: the over two and a half rounds in this fight. 16 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 2: Said about a pick the price minus one oh five 17 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:14,040 Speaker 2: to the over, minus one fifteen to the under that 18 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 2: goes the distance at about plus two to fifty. That's 19 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 2: how I'm betting this fight that goes the decision. In 20 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:23,680 Speaker 2: Cannonear's past two fights, both main events, we're about minus 21 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 2: one ten pick them prices now getting plus two to 22 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 2: fifty divisional average line around plus two hundred, or I 23 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 2: should say the divisional average finishing odds. The implied odds 24 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:39,919 Speaker 2: are closer to plus two hundred, about sixty two percent overall. 25 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 2: I made this sixty six percent, so got to that 26 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:44,679 Speaker 2: plus two hundred number. I guess the divisional average odge 27 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 2: closer to plus one seventy five for the fight to 28 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 2: go decision implied. So getting a little extra bonus juice 29 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 2: on top of that here in the apex, you know 30 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 2: can partially adjust for the apex, but also Canadier you know, 31 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,680 Speaker 2: finished two fights back and effectively finish his last fight 32 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 2: at the end by Kyle Ohio basically knocked out as 33 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 2: the final bell was taking. Could have arguably been stopped 34 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 2: but taken some damage. Forty one years old, and do 35 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 2: want to mention the age gap here because it applies 36 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 2: for both the main event and the co main event. 37 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 2: Eight year age gap between these opponents. The younger fighter 38 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 2: typically wins about sixty nine percent of the time at 39 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 2: ivergods of about fifty six percent, roughly thirteen percent over 40 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,360 Speaker 2: expectation rounded up on both of those, but the number 41 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:30,800 Speaker 2: the differential is about thirteen percent that they win compared 42 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 2: to the average betting odds. Now Cannonier has faced a 43 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 2: much better competition, faced multiple champions, future title challengers, former 44 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 2: title challengers. He's a former title challenger himself, where Rodriguez 45 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,640 Speaker 2: is taking a step up in competition after fighting mostly 46 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 2: unranked guys. He's also never fought five rounds s Gregory 47 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,959 Speaker 2: Rodriguez Jerk Kennanier is in his sixth consecutive five round fight, 48 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 2: the eighth overall of his career. I think the big 49 00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 2: you know, determining factor for kennedy 's success in this 50 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 2: fight is Rodriguez's durability, because I do expect Rodriguez to 51 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 2: be faster, I expect him to be the better grappler. 52 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 2: He hits extremely hard, he's absolutely ripped, but he doesn't 53 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 2: grapple proactively all that much. And Jared has pretty good 54 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 2: takedown defense, or I should say Jared is pretty good 55 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 2: get up game. His takedown defense could be lackluster. When 56 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 2: he does get taken down, he does tend to stay 57 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,360 Speaker 2: safe and eventually use his strength to pop back to 58 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,519 Speaker 2: his feet. Not as technical with his get ups as 59 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 2: he is just explosive in terms of getting up, but 60 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 2: seeing him fade down the stretch in his past two fights, 61 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 2: see him get hurt, you know, in multiple fights recently, 62 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 2: not even just the fights where he was knocked out, 63 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 2: but other fights as well. I think that's why we're 64 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 2: getting some extra juice on top of this goes to 65 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 2: decision prop but as I said, made the line plus 66 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 2: two hundred and get plus two to fifty currently and 67 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 2: then also Rodriguez by decision at five to one, I 68 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 2: made that line closer to plus three eighty like that 69 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 2: down at about four to one or better. Not substantial 70 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 2: bets here. This is kind of main event where if 71 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 2: I wasn't writing about it, but I didn't have to 72 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 2: write about the main event, we didn't have to talk 73 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 2: about the main event, would probably not necessarily be betting it. 74 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 2: But I do lean to the younger favorite, which I 75 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 2: think is a bit contrarion. I do think Jerreed Kennoneer 76 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 2: is gonna end up looking like a value trap this weekend, 77 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 2: and I think Rodriguez by decision is the even more 78 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 2: contrariant way to play it. I know people are loading 79 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 2: up on Rodriguez inside the distance this weekend don't really 80 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 2: see him getting the submission. I could see them slugging 81 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 2: it out in the center of the cage and either 82 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 2: man falling, which certainly lends itself to the Cannoneer side, 83 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 2: But I think Rodriguez would be a little bit safer 84 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 2: than he normally is with the tempo in his first 85 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,840 Speaker 2: career main event, Billy, I think you would agree with me, 86 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 2: not necessarily the most bettable fight. Cannoneer probably like the 87 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,040 Speaker 2: value side of the money line looking at it based 88 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 2: on past performances, but he's also in his forties coming 89 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 2: off those finish lasses. You're leaning to the over two 90 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 2: and a half rounds here if you had to play it. 91 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 2: I considered that as well. I kind of thought if 92 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:58,840 Speaker 2: it got to the over two and a half rounds point, 93 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 2: it had a pretty good shot of going a full 94 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 2: twenty five minutes. So give me your analysis on this fight. 95 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 2: You're lean to the over two and a half and 96 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 2: any other ways you might consider playing it. 97 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, As far as the value stuff on Cannon here, 98 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 3: I think the case is that g rod every once 99 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 3: in a while just decides he's Mike Tyson and just 100 00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:20,159 Speaker 3: wants to plant his feet and throw and everyone's screaming 101 00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,599 Speaker 3: like no, no, don't do that. Occasionally it works and 102 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,159 Speaker 3: it looks really cool and he knocks out Julian Marquez 103 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:25,719 Speaker 3: or whoever. 104 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,239 Speaker 4: But like there's just enough risk of that that it's really. 105 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 3: Hard to lay juice on him because you never know 106 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 3: that he's going to do the right thing. Like I 107 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 3: we both looked stupid with Cody Steele last week, just 108 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 3: deciding that he was going to brawl instead of grapple. 109 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 4: And there's just some guys that you always worry about that. 110 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 3: With all that said, I like the reason I'm going 111 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 3: over two and a half is one is around even money. 112 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,640 Speaker 3: It's minus one oh five, which you know you're not 113 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 3: paying too much on it. But as you pointed out, 114 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 3: Cannon here finished in the fourth round by Emovov, kind 115 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 3: of sort of finished by Kyobojio, like in a fact, 116 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 3: as the bell ring in the fifth round. Even though 117 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 3: he's been in so many five rounders, he does seem 118 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 3: to kind of collapse late in the fight, especially as 119 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 3: he's getting older. And this is a guy who cuts 120 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 3: a ton of weight, you know, former heavyweight, massive dude. 121 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,279 Speaker 3: I can kind of see that argument. It's harder to 122 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,720 Speaker 3: make the argument because g Rod's coming to his first 123 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 3: five rounder, but maybe ge Rod's a little bit safer, 124 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 3: takes his time, Like, just given the price that we're 125 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 3: getting on that, I don't feel the need to get greedy. 126 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 3: I'm and goes to a decision, But like if I 127 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 3: was betting go to a decision or not, I'm one 128 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 3: hundred percent with you. I just think going over two 129 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 3: and a half is kind of a safer way, or 130 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,040 Speaker 3: even like fight starts round three, if you want to 131 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:41,280 Speaker 3: lay a little bit of juice. I do think if 132 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:44,599 Speaker 3: there's any fight IQ in the Hobocop camp that they're 133 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 3: telling him, take your time, get him up against the fence, 134 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,280 Speaker 3: drag him down, like, don't expend everything at once, and 135 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 3: don't brawl with him, and you would think that would 136 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 3: mean a later finish if at all. 137 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 2: Is last fight. He gets cold, probably grappled more proactively 138 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 2: than he has at any point in the UFC. Eight 139 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 2: minutes of top time in that fight. Would imagine that's 140 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,159 Speaker 2: part of the game plan for this fight. 141 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 4: Mix it up. 142 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 2: You are the better all around martial artists. He's an 143 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 2: excellent backtaker, doesn't have a submission in the UFC. Does 144 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 2: tend to get to very lethal positions and then ultimately 145 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 2: his opponents are able to scramble away from him. So 146 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 2: I think there's a chance, you know, just based on 147 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 2: regressing like the positions that he gets to, that eventually 148 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 2: he's going to find that submission. But he's also going 149 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 2: against the higher ranked opponents, higher ranked fighters in the 150 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 2: division now, so you know, that sort of neutralizes out 151 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 2: over time and the finishes. The higher up you go 152 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 2: in the division, fights tend to go to a decision 153 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 2: just a little bit more frequently because guys tend to 154 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 2: be a bit more durable. But yeah, that's that's the 155 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 2: one concerned I have bettering than the Rodriguez side, especially 156 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 2: on the money line. Sometimes he does just want to 157 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 2: stand in the pocket and fire, you know, bullets a 158 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 2: little bit too long. He's very upright in terms of 159 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 2: his striking defense. You know, he leaves his chin up 160 00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 2: there a little bit. He stays in the pocket a 161 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:01,720 Speaker 2: little bit too long, and cannon here is going to 162 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 2: be throwing more in combination with Rodriguez is going to 163 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 2: be looking for that you know, one shot power more 164 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 2: of those crisp, bright hands to land and potentially put 165 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 2: Cannonier away where I think cannon Hear could potentially land 166 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 2: more volume and also just catch Rodriguez on the end 167 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 2: of a long combination. But yeah, lean over two and 168 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 2: a half rounds lean fight to go to a decision. There, 169 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 2: lean Rodriguez by decision at five to one, as opposed 170 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 2: to Cannonar by decision of plus nine to fifty. But 171 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 2: I don't think that is necessarily a bad bet either. 172 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 2: If you like the underdog, move on our fight of 173 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 2: the night another fight, as I mentioned, with that eight 174 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 2: year age gap between the favorite and the underdog, use 175 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 2: of Sala maus forty five Calvin Cater plus three seventy. 176 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 2: This fight is minus two of five to go to 177 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 2: a decision, lust one fifty to end inside the distance. 178 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 2: And if this fight does go to a decision, I 179 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 2: think it helps Calvin Cat's chances immensely because the lalls 180 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:57,560 Speaker 2: inside the distance props are pretty low. Considering Cater's career 181 00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 2: history of surviving not getting finished to a decision. He 182 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 2: got thoroughly out wrestled by al Jamaine Sterling. Yusuf Salala 183 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 2: is not nearly the type of wrestler that al Jo is. 184 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 2: He's a very dangerous scrabbler. He's a really good top 185 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 2: game once he gets on top of opponents, but his 186 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 2: takedown game is more trip reliant. It's more like Mui 187 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,679 Speaker 2: Thai trips. He doesn't have that traditional American wrestling style 188 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 2: that I think is likely to ground Cater consistently. And 189 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 2: if the Wall isn't landing takedowns here, I think Cater 190 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 2: can keep the fight competitive. And I'm interested in Cater 191 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 2: by decision at seven to one, Billy, I would imagine 192 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 2: you think Cater also is a chance of winning by knockout. 193 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 2: Curious your thoughts on that Cater by decision prop, But 194 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,560 Speaker 2: I think his takedown defense could keep this fight standing. 195 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 2: If he's able to keep the fight standing, it should 196 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:45,080 Speaker 2: be competitive. 197 00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 4: Yeah. 198 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 3: My full preview of this one is up now if 199 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:52,560 Speaker 3: anyone's interested. But it's a really interesting fight. Yusuf's all 200 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 3: two point zero because this is a second stint in 201 00:09:54,679 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 3: the octagon, three straight wins by submission. 202 00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 4: He has a kickboxing background. 203 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:00,719 Speaker 3: In his last fight he landed big knee and then 204 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 3: got the sub so we can kind of see that 205 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 3: Calvin Cater, who we think of is this you know, 206 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:09,200 Speaker 3: mostly boxing based fighter, was a state qualifier in wrestling 207 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 3: in high school before he got into MMA, So it's 208 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 3: kind of a little bit the opposite of what you 209 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 3: would think. Cater's only been taken down by three opponents 210 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 3: in his thirteen UFC fights, al jam and Sterling really 211 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,719 Speaker 3: the only one to do you know, a lot with it. 212 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,640 Speaker 3: And even then, the fact that he landed eight takedowns 213 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 3: in three rounds means Cater was able to escape from 214 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 3: five of them. Sterling didn't do a ton with any 215 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 3: of those takedowns. He just got him there and they 216 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 3: scrambled around and Cater eventually got back to his feet. 217 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:39,719 Speaker 3: Because of that, I think he'll be able to keep 218 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,680 Speaker 3: this on the feet for extended stretches. Way more volume 219 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,080 Speaker 3: from the Cater side than there's the Law side. This 220 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:48,080 Speaker 3: is just a classic like minutes versus moments fight for me, 221 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 3: where I think Cater wins most of the minutes with 222 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,960 Speaker 3: his volume and is more accurate striking Zillah a little 223 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 3: bit more explosive on the feet and can steal some 224 00:10:56,880 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 3: minutes or some moments, I should say, with takedowns. The 225 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 3: only time Cater's ever been finished in his career, he 226 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 3: was submitted once in two thousand and eight, and then 227 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,679 Speaker 3: he blew out his knee a couple of fights ago. 228 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 3: The Sterling fight was his first fight back from an injury, 229 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 3: so I kind of not always but often liked to 230 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 3: better guy on the second fight back from an injury. 231 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:17,840 Speaker 3: We're assuming he got in a full training camp. It 232 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 3: wasn't rushed, he was able to recover. The one thing 233 00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 3: that gives me pause a teeny bit is he also 234 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,319 Speaker 3: pulled out of a fight between here and Sterling, so 235 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 3: I don't know if that was another injury or what 236 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:28,559 Speaker 3: happened there. 237 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 4: Didn't seem to be anything significant. 238 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 3: But yeah, as you break it down, I love the 239 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:36,719 Speaker 3: cater By decision side last. We forget though he was 240 00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 3: knocking everybody out until he fought like Max Holloway and 241 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 3: some of the top level guys. I don't know that 242 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 3: Za Law can't be one of these top level guys 243 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 3: in the division. I know we haven't seen it yet, 244 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 3: so I'm probably gonna add a little bit of a 245 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,840 Speaker 3: k Tar Kadar By decision sprinkle on there, just because 246 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 3: I do like the logic there. I don't see the 247 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,680 Speaker 3: Law getting the submission. Cater's just a good enough grappler. 248 00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 3: I think if he gets to finish. It will be 249 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 3: with strikes, maybe strikes on the ground. But yeah, we 250 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:05,840 Speaker 3: saw we've only been submitted once. It was seventeen years 251 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 3: ago or something. At this point, I'm not too worried 252 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 3: about that. I think there's a lot of value on Kadar. 253 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 3: The only other thing I would say is this would 254 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 3: normally be a perfect point spread fight because he just 255 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,319 Speaker 3: needs to win one round. DraftKings has the point spread 256 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 3: at minus one to fifteen. Both guys, so just too 257 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:22,679 Speaker 3: big of a difference off his money line. I'd rather 258 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 3: take the big swing. 259 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely. With those money lines at plus three xacs, 260 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 2: you normally see plus money on that point spread. Don't 261 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 2: want to be betting minus money. I think the money 262 00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 2: line offers more value relative to that number. The decision 263 00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:39,959 Speaker 2: prop offers more value relative to that number. As you mentioned, 264 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,679 Speaker 2: Cater's second fight back off of an injury, Gyr cannoneer 265 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:45,720 Speaker 2: third fight back off a knee surgery. So both guys 266 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 2: in a similar situation, you know, eight years older than 267 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,959 Speaker 2: their opponent. The age angle up against them, facing a younger, better, 268 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 2: stronger athlete who can probably outgrapple them, but neither has 269 00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 2: you know, particularly dominant top time abilities. Both are able 270 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 2: to let their opponents scramble up at times, you know, 271 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:08,560 Speaker 2: either due to lack of coherent pressure you know, top 272 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 2: pressure from Rodriguez at times, or just a lack of 273 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 2: complete wrestling game from Zla. 274 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 4: So I think both. 275 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 2: Underdogs could be live, could be able to keep those 276 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 2: main events and co main events standing, potentially make them 277 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 2: closer and more competitive than the odds suggests. But I 278 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 2: think of the two, Cater the underdog I'm much more 279 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 2: interested in, and Cater by decision is how I go 280 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,599 Speaker 2: about playing that. It's more one of our favorite underdogs 281 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:33,839 Speaker 2: on this card. We're in alignment on two fighters. I'll 282 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 2: go ahead and give out the third before we get 283 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 2: to the two that are consensus underdogs. Vince Barrale is 284 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 2: at plus one thirty two against Elijah Smith. You tape 285 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 2: the Elijah Smith for Contender Series. I'm curious of your 286 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 2: thoughts on Smith as a prospect. I'm not particularly high 287 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 2: on him, but more so, I just think now is 288 00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 2: the time to fade him, because if this guy gets better, 289 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 2: he's a very good athlete. This guy gets better, I 290 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 2: think he's going to be a lot more difficult for 291 00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 2: youc fighters to face, but he is eight pro fight 292 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 2: Vince Morales has nine fights in the UFC twenty four overall, 293 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 2: so Vince Morales is more UFC fights than Elijah Smith 294 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 2: is pro fights, and there's a twelve year age gap 295 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 2: between these two. Smith is twenty two, Morales is thirty four. 296 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 2: But this is not you know, this is not twenty 297 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 2: eight and forty twenty two and thirty four is a 298 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:23,440 Speaker 2: lot different. Smith hasn't necessarily hit his physical prime yet. 299 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 2: Mirale is probably slowing down, but not you know, necessarily 300 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 2: at the the thirty five year old age cliff that 301 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 2: we typically see a big drop off with guys. I 302 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 2: do think the first round should be the best round 303 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 2: here for Smith, so I'm not alloc hitting a ton 304 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 2: pre fight to Vince Morales. I think the better angle 305 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,840 Speaker 2: is probably live after round one, but I think he 306 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 2: is you know, better wrestling. I think he is takedown 307 00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 2: defense to keep this fight standing, and I don't like 308 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 2: Smith's striking defense. I don't like his cardios. So I 309 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:54,320 Speaker 2: do think Morales works his way back into the fight 310 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 2: in the second or third rounds, probably get a better 311 00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 2: number live after round one, but certainly wants a pre 312 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 2: fight at about plus one thirty. The two underdogs were 313 00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 2: in alignment on the first is Andre Petrowski against Rudolfhaviira 314 00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 2: billion and I never aligned on Petroski or Vieira fights. 315 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,280 Speaker 2: We're always on the opposite side, except for one time. 316 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 2: Here we are aligned once again. I think we'd both agree. 317 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 2: Vieira alive for an early submission if he doesn't get that, 318 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,680 Speaker 2: Petrosky has a chance to top time him, especially for 319 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 2: the final three rounds. I think Patrotski is the better wrestler, 320 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 2: Viera clearly the better grappler. The striking should be somewhat neutral. 321 00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 2: Maybe I give a slight edge to Vieira there, which 322 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 2: can justify his favoritism. But Petroski money line live after 323 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 2: round one and then by decision all three ways, I 324 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 2: consider playing that for now, though I'd hold off that 325 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 2: Petrosky money line open at plus one seventy five. It's 326 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 2: gotten up to plus two thirty. It's only moved in 327 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 2: one direction. I'm just gonna wait to time peak price 328 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 2: in that market. And then, lastly, Kaos Williams plus one 329 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 2: eighty five against Gabriel bon fimban Fima is a better 330 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 2: all round fighter, better grappler but he's that a big 331 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 2: not a big physicality differential, but a big durability differential 332 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 2: in this fight, Chaos Williams, I think you could hit 333 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 2: him with a truck and he may not tip over, 334 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 2: may not even get taken down by that truck. But 335 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 2: he is crazy knockout power of his own. He's extremely durable. 336 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,320 Speaker 2: He's got a five entre each advantage here, and I 337 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:22,120 Speaker 2: really don't trust bomb team shrinking defense in the pocket. 338 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 2: I think he's gonna get clipped here and we'll see 339 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 2: if Williams power is enough to put him away. So 340 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:30,520 Speaker 2: Williams plus one eighty five also live after round one. 341 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,760 Speaker 2: Bomb fime does tend to fade as the fights extend 342 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 2: to get into the third round. Billy, we're aligned on 343 00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 2: the Williams site. We're a lining to the Petrowski fight. 344 00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 2: Curious if you have any thoughts on the Morales fight 345 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 2: and then any other underdogs that we didn't get to 346 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 2: or won't get you on the car that you're interested 347 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 2: about it. 348 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll be real quick on Chaos because I think 349 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 3: you nailed it. And also just that boy hits real 350 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 3: hard and sometimes that's enough when you're a big underdog 351 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 3: like if you've got that that obvious way to win, 352 00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 3: maybe you just take it. I don't like as an 353 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 3: activity so much, but again we're getting plus money, so 354 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:05,440 Speaker 3: not a big deal. The interesting thing about Petrosky from 355 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 3: a stylistic standpoint, I think if you did a pure 356 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 3: grappling match with these guys and you started them on 357 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:15,160 Speaker 3: the ground, whoever started on top would win every exchange. Yeah, 358 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 3: because they're both so good from the top. Rudolpho Vieira 359 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:22,120 Speaker 3: for being a guy who didn't wrestle for wrestling sake 360 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 3: and is a jiu jitsu guy, good takedowns, like he's 361 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:28,879 Speaker 3: an above average takedown artist for a jiu jitsu player. 362 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:32,119 Speaker 3: Petroski was a Pennsylvania state champion who wrestled d one. 363 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 3: That's one of those like there's levels to this thing. 364 00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 3: I also think in some ways he's the better MMA grappler. 365 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 3: People have dogged him a lot because he's been real 366 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,639 Speaker 3: boring from the top his last couple fights, but like 367 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 3: he was winning the fight and his opponents were just 368 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:47,200 Speaker 3: hanging on for dear life, and Petrosky is smart enough 369 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 3: to say, Okay, I'm. 370 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 4: Winning this round, you're hanging on. 371 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:51,359 Speaker 3: I'm not going to leave an arm out there and 372 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 3: do something stupid, where Vieira I think, switches into jiu 373 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:58,360 Speaker 3: jitsu mode too often, where he's like, I don't get 374 00:17:58,359 --> 00:17:59,919 Speaker 3: anything from being in top. I have to pass the go. 375 00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 3: I have to do this, and he gives more openings 376 00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 3: and more risk. So that's one of the reasons. I 377 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 3: also think Petrowski's cardio is a bit better. We've just 378 00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 3: seen Viera totally fall apart. Neither guy is like a 379 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,399 Speaker 3: cardio machine. These are big, strong grapplers, which is like 380 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:17,240 Speaker 3: the exact wrong thing you want to be if you 381 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 3: want to fight extended fights. But if you watch Fierra strike, 382 00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 3: he's really tense. I think he's the better striker, but 383 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:26,680 Speaker 3: he's very tense and very explosive. Petrowsky is to an extent, 384 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:30,399 Speaker 3: but not as bad. So the nightmare scenario here is 385 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 3: we just get like a bad striking match between these 386 00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 3: two because it won't be entertaining or good. 387 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 4: For our bet. 388 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,680 Speaker 3: I don't think even if that does happen, I think 389 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 3: Petroski will look fresher later into the fight. So I 390 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:45,119 Speaker 3: like your live angle for that reason too. You know, 391 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 3: I think we're aligned on that. The one pushback I'll 392 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 3: give you on the Vince morel As Elijah Smith fight. 393 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 3: Morells was like plus two hundred earlier in this week. 394 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 3: This line has plummeted. I didn't do luck ratings this week. 395 00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 3: I was sick at the start of the week, so 396 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,240 Speaker 3: I missed that one. I think at this point you 397 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:04,680 Speaker 3: have to take Smith. A lot of the reasoning I'm 398 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:08,119 Speaker 3: seeing for all that money coming in on Morales is 399 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 3: the cardio issue for Smith. He kind of fell apart 400 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,199 Speaker 3: in his third round of his Contender Series fight. He 401 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,440 Speaker 3: took that one on very short notice. He was supposed 402 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 3: to fight at a different date, stepped up early and 403 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 3: looked great through two rounds, five takedowns through the first 404 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:24,679 Speaker 3: two rounds, won the striking pretty easily in those, and 405 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 3: then just kind of hit a cardio cliff. I'm willing 406 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:28,679 Speaker 3: to give him a pass on that just because it 407 00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:31,640 Speaker 3: was a short notice fight. If that were his full 408 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 3: training camp and we saw that, I'd go, Okay, we 409 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,520 Speaker 3: have a cardio problem. And then with the age gap, 410 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:40,200 Speaker 3: the athleticism, all that stuff, I probably still will come 411 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:43,760 Speaker 3: back in on Morales Live if we get a big number, 412 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 3: But from a pre fight standpoint, just given the movement 413 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 3: I'm on the Smith's side of that, So that's the 414 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 3: one we disagree. The other thing is I was really 415 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:53,359 Speaker 3: big on Aaron Tao, who he fought on the Contender Series. 416 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:55,840 Speaker 3: I thought was one of the better prospects, and Smith 417 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 3: just completely outclassed him until he got tired. So if 418 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 3: he can do that, I would Aaron tow over Vince 419 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 3: Morales right now, I guess is how I would phrase that. 420 00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 3: So given that Smith did that, I do think he's 421 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 3: the side pre fight. Don't hate the live angle though, 422 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,840 Speaker 3: because this cardio is questionable at best. 423 00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, fair enough. It's a very good shout out that 424 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,840 Speaker 2: Smith took that Contender Series fight on short notice. That 425 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 2: wasn't in my notes. But yeah, I think all three 426 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 2: underdogs not like super interested in firing on them full 427 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 2: allocation pre fight. I think all three you're likelier than 428 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:31,600 Speaker 2: not to get a better price live after round one 429 00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:35,640 Speaker 2: that Petrotsky fight. I actually do have a feeling, especially 430 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:38,199 Speaker 2: like rounds two, rounds three may play out as a 431 00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 2: very ugly kickboxing match, especially like if they neutralize each 432 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:45,440 Speaker 2: other on the ground, maybe they both start getting a 433 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 2: little bit tired, They're like, I'd rather strike this out, 434 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,119 Speaker 2: so maybe maybe one of the three rounds if it 435 00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:52,199 Speaker 2: goes to a decision, ends up being, you know, the 436 00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 2: worst kickboxing match for five minutes you've ever seen, but 437 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 2: completely agree whoever's on top is winning that fight. I 438 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:03,239 Speaker 2: think Petrosky is the slightly better wrestler. I think he 439 00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 2: has more chance of just being on top. He prior 440 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 2: you know you, you said a bunch of things about 441 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 2: Petrosky and VIA's styles. Via prioritizes submission over position, which 442 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 2: is going to allow Petrosky to get up from bottom. 443 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 2: Petrosky prioritizes the position over submission. I think if he's 444 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,679 Speaker 2: on top, VIIa less likely to get out for bottom, 445 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 2: and I think that's kind of where we see the 446 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 2: value on the underdog side of things. We're aligned on 447 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:32,440 Speaker 2: some prop angles as well. I'm gonna throw it right 448 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 2: back to you though, for that Petrosky Pdolfo Vira fight. 449 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:38,159 Speaker 2: You like that fight to end before the eleven minute 450 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:41,640 Speaker 2: mark or before before it starts round three. So fight 451 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 2: to end in the first two rounds between Petrosky and Vieira. 452 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 2: Why did you go with that angle as opposed to 453 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:49,160 Speaker 2: an under two and a half or the ends inside 454 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 2: of this than just less juice. 455 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 4: Uh yeah, less juice. 456 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 3: You can play with the sgps on DraftKings two and 457 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,239 Speaker 3: kind of tweak that up or down. I think the 458 00:21:58,440 --> 00:21:59,879 Speaker 3: you can get the minus one oh five that I 459 00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 3: have in our sheet and still get the first thirty 460 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 3: seconds of round three if you do it on Draftings. 461 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:06,680 Speaker 3: If that matters too, like it probably should, right, they'll 462 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 3: be fresher at the start of the round. I just 463 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:11,119 Speaker 3: don't think these guys have the cardio to make it 464 00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:13,880 Speaker 3: past the second round. I'm splitting my bet so I've 465 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,199 Speaker 3: got half of a unit on Petrosky half or to 466 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 3: win half on this one. And they're going to engage 467 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 3: each other with the grappling to an extent. Like we 468 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 3: think of Petrowsky as this boring decision merchant, but that's 469 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 3: because his last two opponents just had zero interest in 470 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 3: grappling with him at all. It's really hard to submit 471 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,520 Speaker 3: someone who's just like backpacking you or hanging on for 472 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,880 Speaker 3: dear life from the bottom. They're going to give each 473 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:38,720 Speaker 3: other something, you know, Vieia's going to go for an 474 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 3: armbar from the bottom, and if he doesn't get it, 475 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,960 Speaker 3: Petroski's gonna have opportunity to strike Petrosky's going to be 476 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 3: looking to get up from the bottom. Viera takes its back, like, 477 00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:48,679 Speaker 3: there's just plenty of things that can happen, and if 478 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:52,639 Speaker 3: they do have a sloppy tent striking match, could probably Vieira. 479 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 4: But one of them land. 480 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:56,639 Speaker 3: Something like sure, especially once they get tired. So it 481 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:58,880 Speaker 3: just kind of a little bit of my head here. 482 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 3: I just don't think by the end of the second 483 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,440 Speaker 3: round both guys are fresh and hopefully it's so one 484 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,160 Speaker 3: guy is fresh and not the other, so we get 485 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:08,960 Speaker 3: the finished and yeah, so that's the way. One of 486 00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 3: those opponents who tried to hang on for dear life 487 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 3: against Petrowski was still in Budka and we're both talking 488 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 3: about that one. So you give me your prop on that, 489 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 3: and then I'll go with my version of that. 490 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 2: Oh, the Shabazian deal with Budga fight. Yeah, we're both 491 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 2: having an angle on this one. I consider betting it 492 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 2: the way you're betting it, which is Shabazian to win 493 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:28,800 Speaker 2: in rounds one or two of plus one fifteen. I 494 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:32,360 Speaker 2: also looked at Shabazian by Koh's about plus one thirty five. 495 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:35,199 Speaker 2: Shabazi in round one is about plus two to fifty 496 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 2: and then Shabazi in by round one KO is about 497 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 2: plus three fifty plus three sixty, So the KO one 498 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 2: I think is a good round robin piece or just 499 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 2: his KO odds as a round robin piece. I like 500 00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:50,119 Speaker 2: the fight to end inside the distance though at minus 501 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,080 Speaker 2: one eighty five I projected this at minus two sixty. 502 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 2: Shabazian is always incredibly nagerous in round one. Bucca is 503 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,199 Speaker 2: going to be in serious danger in round one, but 504 00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 2: then Shabazian's cardio drops off of a cliff. He is 505 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:05,639 Speaker 2: in able to finish his opponents. Typically he tries to 506 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,640 Speaker 2: finish them and when he's unable to, he gases himself 507 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:10,520 Speaker 2: out going for the finish, like he did in his 508 00:24:10,600 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 2: last fight against Sheild Miershirt. So Edmund Schabasian always dangerous 509 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,640 Speaker 2: for about six seven minutes, which aligns with the way 510 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,160 Speaker 2: you bet it the other the other way, I should 511 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:23,920 Speaker 2: mention a same game parlay with Shabazian and the under 512 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 2: one and a half rounds is plus one sixty five, 513 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:31,439 Speaker 2: probably comparable in terms of like edge and pricing as 514 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 2: Billy's bet, which is Shabazi and to win in rounds 515 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:36,720 Speaker 2: one or two at plus one fifteen, So go ahead, Billy. 516 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that's that's how he's won all but 517 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 3: one of his fights in his career is in the 518 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:43,439 Speaker 3: first two rounds. He had a split decision on the 519 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 3: Contender Series, where if I remember correctly, I didn't watch 520 00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 3: this tape because it was a long time ago, he 521 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 3: got beat pretty badly in the third round, and that's 522 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 3: how he got to a split decision. 523 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,960 Speaker 4: Like, just for whatever reason, the cardio is not there. 524 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 3: I think Budka has probably gotten the message loud and 525 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,119 Speaker 3: clear that he's got to go for something here. He 526 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 3: missed weight for that fight against Petrowski and it was 527 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 3: a really boring fight, and he's lost both of his 528 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:08,720 Speaker 3: first two fights in the UFC. I if nothing else, 529 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:10,159 Speaker 3: you got to go out there and try if you're 530 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,160 Speaker 3: Dylan Budka, and I hope that leaves some openings for Shabazi. 531 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 3: And I just don't think Dylan Budka is very good. 532 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:18,040 Speaker 3: I think we're trying to use him to get Shabazi 533 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:20,480 Speaker 3: and rolling again because he's been the up and coming 534 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:23,720 Speaker 3: prospect for like twenty six years now who just needs 535 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:27,120 Speaker 3: to strengthen wins together after starting real hot. But yeah, 536 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:31,120 Speaker 3: I like the SGP angle that you mentioned to get 537 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 3: you know, the first half or so of round two, 538 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 3: because he's gonna come out round to a little bit 539 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:37,280 Speaker 3: fresher again, right like he gets that minute break. I 540 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 3: think it finish is probably more likely in the first 541 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 3: minute of round two than it is the last minute 542 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,920 Speaker 3: of round one or whatever. So play with that, get 543 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,879 Speaker 3: whatever odds you want if he wins, though it's almost 544 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 3: certainly how it's going to happen, so makes sense. 545 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 4: And again with the. 546 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:54,280 Speaker 3: SGP throwing a knockout, if you want juice it up 547 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:56,480 Speaker 3: a little bit more. I don't think you're getting a 548 00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 3: great price adjustment on that because that's how pretty much 549 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 3: everyone's is it going. 550 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 4: But also an option. 551 00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, and then Buck probably a live target halfway through 552 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 2: the fight, not live after round one, because as you said, 553 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 2: Shabazian is still dangerous for the first couple of minutes 554 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:12,919 Speaker 2: of round two, but halfway through the fight, you know, 555 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,400 Speaker 2: Shabazian doesn't finish him at the start of round two. 556 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:18,639 Speaker 2: Interested in coming back on Bunckle live, provided it was 557 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:21,360 Speaker 2: not a ten eight round in round one, because it's 558 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 2: just very difficult to overcome the live market. That factors 559 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 2: in like the draw odds. You saw that last week 560 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 2: with the of the Jimmy Cruit fight that was in 561 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:35,880 Speaker 2: a very obvious ten eight in round one. I saw 562 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 2: people coming back on Balato and I was like, yes, 563 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 2: but he really needs to finish in order to fight, 564 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 2: and it came close to it, but yeah, ultimately a 565 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:47,359 Speaker 2: split draw. There a couple other props for me on 566 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 2: this card. My favorite of the bunch Jose Delgado inside 567 00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:53,320 Speaker 2: the distance at plus one oh five against Connor Matthews. 568 00:26:53,320 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 2: I also like his knockout prop at about two to 569 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:59,719 Speaker 2: one projected the inside the distance line at minus one fifties, 570 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,399 Speaker 2: or than a ten percent edge. They're based on the 571 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 2: implied odds now got us from MMA Lab. He's the 572 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:07,680 Speaker 2: bigger man, three inches taller, two intre each advantage. He's 573 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:11,240 Speaker 2: also the much better striker. Matthews is nickname the Controller 574 00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:14,160 Speaker 2: because he just likes to hold on to opponents. There 575 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:18,159 Speaker 2: is very little danger there from him. He's also been 576 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 2: knocked out I believe three times regionally or starry three 577 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:25,480 Speaker 2: times in amateur one time professionally. I think there's a 578 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 2: big striking disparity between these two. Seems like a bit 579 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 2: of a layup for Jose Delgado in its first UFC fight, 580 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:35,160 Speaker 2: So inside the distance at plus one oh five knockout 581 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,520 Speaker 2: at about two to one, I'll likely have on round 582 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:42,680 Speaker 2: robin tickets, and then the Raphaelo Stevan Jesus Aglar fight. 583 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 2: I projected this fight at minus one thirty. To go 584 00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 2: to a decision, they're giving you plus money plus one fifteen. 585 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,919 Speaker 2: I also like a steve On by decision about plus 586 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:56,440 Speaker 2: one sixty five or so, but I just think there's 587 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,920 Speaker 2: more value on the GTD. Overall, there was a fifth 588 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 2: he sent difference between a stev On by decision and 589 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,920 Speaker 2: the fight to go to a decision seven inch reach 590 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,440 Speaker 2: advantage for a stev On, but also the much better wrestler. 591 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:13,400 Speaker 2: Aguilar is basically an overhand and a bunch of guillotine attempts, 592 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,959 Speaker 2: and that's his entire game. He's probably gonna spend twelve 593 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 2: of the fifteen minutes on bottom here, unable to get up, 594 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 2: and hopefully he does not get finished in the process. 595 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 2: So fight to go to a decision, hopefully a boring 596 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 2: wrestling based decision for a stev On, and then a 597 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 2: stev On by decision. I'll put on round Robin Tickets 598 00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:33,920 Speaker 2: projected that line at even money. 599 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:34,160 Speaker 1: Billy. 600 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,919 Speaker 2: Any thoughts on Delgado, Matthews or a stev On versus Aguilar. 601 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, Aguilar is hilarious. 602 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 3: Man, Like I love watching the fight because it's so 603 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 3: dumb and we should, like we should all know what 604 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 3: he's doing by now. 605 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 4: It's not. 606 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 3: It's not a secret, but yeah, that's fine. My only 607 00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:51,680 Speaker 3: real thought is I adjusted Jose Delgado north of Estebam 608 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:54,560 Speaker 3: and my DFS projections when I saw how you're playing 609 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:56,600 Speaker 3: both those in the show sheet, and it made it 610 00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 3: a lot of sense. I do think Delgado is the 611 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 3: far more likely finisher. Mathews got finished by Dennis Pazuka, 612 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:05,440 Speaker 3: who you once said's best attribute was tries real hard, 613 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,720 Speaker 3: and Delgatto is actually like good at stuff and probably 614 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 3: also tries hard. 615 00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 4: So that's yeah, I like that one. 616 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 2: What's goes better in defat a round one like a 617 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 2: quick round one knockout or fifteen minutes the top time 618 00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 2: like twelve minutes of top. 619 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:23,200 Speaker 3: Time, so the control time doesn't score very well, finish 620 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 3: his score, but takedowns score really well. So you're trying 621 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:28,160 Speaker 3: to thread the needle of like al Jamain Sterling is 622 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,239 Speaker 3: gonna get eight takedowns, but let you up and then 623 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:33,680 Speaker 3: take you down again. So for that reason, that's why, 624 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 3: like you want, it's kind of finishing and then takedowns. 625 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 4: And then control time is like the the priority chart 626 00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:40,240 Speaker 4: for the most part. 627 00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 3: So yeah, that's a first round finish, and both these 628 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,000 Speaker 3: guys are highly priced, so you kind of need either 629 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 3: finish or like five six takedowns for them to pay off. 630 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:51,600 Speaker 3: And del Gotta, I think is clearly more likely of 631 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 3: the two to get that. So yeah, definitely adjusted that 632 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:57,280 Speaker 3: because of your analysis, and as soon as I saw it, 633 00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 3: I was like, yeah, that's that makes a hundred percent. 634 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:02,360 Speaker 2: So yeah, I'll probably be using Delgado everywhere. In terms 635 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 2: of DraftKings lineups this week, make sure go to Fantasy Labs. 636 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:07,680 Speaker 2: You can build out multiple lineups. You can you know, 637 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 2: locking guys that you want as part of all of 638 00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 2: your lineups and then optimize lineups around that. I use 639 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 2: it every week to build out my DFS lineups. I 640 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:17,480 Speaker 2: think it's a super valuable tool. You can use Sean 641 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:19,960 Speaker 2: Kerner's projections that are loaded in there. You can adjust 642 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 2: those projections manually and create all your lineups. So I'll 643 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:25,680 Speaker 2: be hitting the lock button very likely on Delgada this 644 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 2: week and trying to mix other combinations in and around him. 645 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 2: But one fight that probably will not be used in 646 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:35,720 Speaker 2: terms of my DFS election is my best bet which 647 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 2: I like to go to a decision between Zine Sadakov 648 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 2: and Ishmael bond Theme. I like this fight to go 649 00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 2: to decision at minus one thirty. I projected it closer 650 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 2: to minus one seventy. Seen a lot of people planting 651 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 2: flags on either site of this fight this week. I 652 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 2: just think it's going to be competitive. I think Sadakov 653 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,239 Speaker 2: will probably outperform his money line odds and make this 654 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 2: a little bit more competitive than the money line suggests. 655 00:30:58,080 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 2: But I still view Ishmael bond Feme as the rightful favorite. 656 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 2: I think he's more technical. I think he's a bit 657 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 2: more dangerous in terms of the grappling, but I don't 658 00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,720 Speaker 2: love his cardio or his durability as much as I 659 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 2: like Sodakov. So do you see a pretty competitive fight 660 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:18,120 Speaker 2: between these two. I think bond Fema live to a submission. 661 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:21,040 Speaker 2: I think Sodakov live to a ko. But I do 662 00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 2: think it goes to the scorecards a bit more often 663 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:26,200 Speaker 2: than the odds suggests, not necessarily a best bet this 664 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 2: week so much as a final bet. I kind of 665 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 2: like these, you know, as much as I like the 666 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:31,520 Speaker 2: other totals. I like it as much as I like 667 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 2: the dogatoins have a distance in the under in that fight. 668 00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:36,600 Speaker 2: But this did stand out as one of my bigger 669 00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 2: projected edges this week. Billy, any thoughts on the Sadakov 670 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 2: bon Fiem fight? And then you're gonna finish this off 671 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:45,680 Speaker 2: with a pick'm fight between Angela Hill and Kaitlyn Susan. 672 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 4: No, that's that seems about right. 673 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 3: It should be a competitive He got ten eight in 674 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 3: the third round against Slava Claus. Correct. Yeah, that's how 675 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 3: we got to that majority of decisions. Oh yes, so yeah, 676 00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 3: I mean that's that's not a great sign. 677 00:31:59,400 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 4: I'm sorry. 678 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 2: The other way around, he ten aided Slava. He almost finished. 679 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 4: Slava early and then faded late. 680 00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 2: Was going to get the scorecards up again. It was 681 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 2: round two. He got a ten eight on two of 682 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 2: the cards in round two. He like nearly finished Slava 683 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 2: in round two, and then Slava actually worked his way 684 00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:18,960 Speaker 2: back into the fight in round three, and it was 685 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 2: it was kind of tough to tell whether he was 686 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 2: gonna fade anyway, or if he faded because he went 687 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 2: for the finish. I think he more so faded because 688 00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 2: he went for the finish. So I'd still kind of 689 00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 2: favor Sodokov on Cardio over Bonfime, but I don't think, 690 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:34,959 Speaker 2: you know, I don't think either of them has elite 691 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 2: cardiover the division. 692 00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:39,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, the cardio angle is always tough too, because if 693 00:32:39,760 --> 00:32:42,560 Speaker 3: both guys get tired, we get a decision. If one 694 00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:45,160 Speaker 3: guy gets tired before the other, then it lends you 695 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:47,520 Speaker 3: the ops away. But yeah, I like that, and then 696 00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:51,240 Speaker 3: mine also very much a final bet. Like not strong 697 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 3: feelings on that, but if you just looked at their 698 00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:58,960 Speaker 3: last couple of fights, especially since Katln'su'sa moved divisions against 699 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:01,520 Speaker 3: Angela Hill. 700 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 4: You'd say, yeah, this is about what the line should be. 701 00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:04,840 Speaker 3: Right they've been, you know, Angela Hill lost a semi 702 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 3: close decision to Tabitha heg beat Luana Paniro. Kaitlyn Suzzo's 703 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:12,440 Speaker 3: won both of her fights at one fifteen, but against 704 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 3: low ish level competition. Although I like Uruguay, if you 705 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 3: you know, just looked at that, there's an eleven year 706 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:22,280 Speaker 3: age gap. Angela Hill's on the wrong side of forty. 707 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:25,719 Speaker 3: I've probably said this for like twelve straight Angela Hill 708 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,959 Speaker 3: fights or something, but at some point she's gonna fall off, right, Like, 709 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:32,560 Speaker 3: she can't keep doing this forever. It is the lightest 710 00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 3: weight class in the UFC. We always talk about the 711 00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 3: lighter the weight class, they tend to age faster. I 712 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:41,440 Speaker 3: don't know if that necessarily applies differently with women than men, 713 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:44,920 Speaker 3: but the logic is still there that it's more speed 714 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 3: and quickness dependent. You know, she's roughly fifty to fifty 715 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 3: over the period I've been saying she's gonna fall off 716 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 3: any minute. So it hasn't worked out horribly for me. 717 00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:57,200 Speaker 3: She hasn't fallen off. I just think Kaitlyn Sue's a 718 00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 3: huge athletic advantage again, looked really good again. 719 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:02,320 Speaker 4: Yasmin Oruguay, who I'm somewhat high on. 720 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 3: If it happens here, it's like basically a free bet, 721 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:07,760 Speaker 3: and if it doesn't happen here, it's still a close fight. 722 00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 3: So we're clipping flipping a coin if Angela Hill is 723 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:13,600 Speaker 3: still Angela Hill and kind of getting free year old 724 00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:16,319 Speaker 3: if she doesn't. So final bet, not a best bet, 725 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 3: but yeah, that's where I'm going with it. 726 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, target Hill live after round one. I want to 727 00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:22,759 Speaker 2: see how she looks. You know, as you mentioned, she's 728 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:25,879 Speaker 2: in her forties now, Jared canned here, it is forties now. 729 00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 2: Rodriguez likely to be his best early in the fight. 730 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:31,320 Speaker 2: You know, he's never gone five rounds. I think with 731 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 2: both the first not the first time of the car 732 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:35,080 Speaker 2: But this sues a Hill fight, I think, very similar 733 00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 2: to the main event. Look at the forty one year old. 734 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,239 Speaker 2: See how they're doing in round one? Are they competitive? 735 00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:39,520 Speaker 4: You know? 736 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:43,120 Speaker 2: Are they In Canaoner's case, is he denying takedowns? Is 737 00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:45,640 Speaker 2: he getting back up from takedowns? In Hill's case, is 738 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 2: she landing takedowns? Is she attempting takedowns? Because I do 739 00:34:49,160 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 2: think she has a potential wrestling advantage in this fight. 740 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 2: She's shown better grappling of late later in her career. 741 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,360 Speaker 2: She's continued to make improvements as she's gotten older as 742 00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:00,680 Speaker 2: a fighter, which is extremely impressive. But that athletic cliff 743 00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:03,800 Speaker 2: is going to come at some point, and in your forties, 744 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:06,919 Speaker 2: it is increasingly likely with each and every fight. But yeah, 745 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:10,200 Speaker 2: he'll live after round one. I would consider just based 746 00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:12,560 Speaker 2: on how she looks in the first round. If it's competitive, 747 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:16,920 Speaker 2: you know what, her price clows out. Absolutely take a stab, 748 00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,319 Speaker 2: particularly if she hasn't shot a takedown to that point, 749 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 2: because if she has that in her back pocket, if 750 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:23,120 Speaker 2: she's able to mix it up, and she hasn't shown 751 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,560 Speaker 2: it yet, but she's competitive in the striking, I think 752 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 2: I'd be interested in a live entry. Just want to 753 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:29,879 Speaker 2: shout out the other potential live entries on this card. 754 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,920 Speaker 2: I mentioned Dylan Buca probably halfway through the fight, you know, 755 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:35,719 Speaker 2: near the end of round two. Midway through round two, 756 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 2: Sadakov potentially live after round one, talked about Angela Hill, Chaos, 757 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:47,120 Speaker 2: Williams Vince Morels. Maybe you know you talked about Elijah 758 00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:49,960 Speaker 2: Smith coming off of a short notice Contender Series fight, 759 00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:52,000 Speaker 2: So take a look at how the wrestling is going 760 00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:53,920 Speaker 2: in that fight. If Smith is able to land takedowns, 761 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:55,880 Speaker 2: I don't want any part of morales. If Moreles is 762 00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:58,440 Speaker 2: denying takedowns, I think that fight will be competitive for 763 00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:04,359 Speaker 2: fifteen minutes. Lastly, Dantel May's live after round one as 764 00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:08,080 Speaker 2: well against Walter Walker, Johnny Walker's brother Billy. We didn't 765 00:36:08,080 --> 00:36:09,640 Speaker 2: touch on that fight. We didn't touch on the first 766 00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:11,839 Speaker 2: fright on the card. Any thoughts though before we got 767 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:14,280 Speaker 2: out of here on the Dantell Mays fight or anything 768 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:15,480 Speaker 2: to get to No. 769 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:17,560 Speaker 3: I mean this is this is a great one to 770 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:19,960 Speaker 3: take the first hour or the card off. If you're 771 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,720 Speaker 3: not like you're I don't think you're gonna miss anything. 772 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:22,960 Speaker 2: No. 773 00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:25,760 Speaker 3: Walker is weird, Like in theory he should be better. 774 00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 3: But his win in the UFC was a heel hook 775 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 3: where Junior Tafa like made some noise and the ref 776 00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 3: just waved it off with two seconds left in the round. 777 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:37,960 Speaker 4: And I don't know if it was really on. 778 00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:40,840 Speaker 3: Or not, and like he made some noise, but he 779 00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:43,239 Speaker 3: didn't get up and limp away because his ACL was torn. 780 00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:45,879 Speaker 3: So it's hard to argue that that was early on, 781 00:36:46,120 --> 00:36:48,319 Speaker 3: Like if you take that win away, I don't know 782 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:50,239 Speaker 3: that this line is what it is with that sid. 783 00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:52,560 Speaker 4: I was sick this week. I didn't watch tape on 784 00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:53,000 Speaker 4: every fight. 785 00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:55,200 Speaker 3: I certainly did not want to watch any tape on 786 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 3: Walter Walker or Dantel May's or Julia Evila is also 787 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:01,759 Speaker 3: is she not or close to it? 788 00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, the hair certainly makes her look forty. I believe 789 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:09,200 Speaker 2: she's in her earlate thirties, but yeah, Julia Alvla the 790 00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 2: Raging Panda first fight on the card. Yeah, nothing really 791 00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 2: for me on either the Avili fight or the Maze 792 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,680 Speaker 2: Walker fight, asides from the Maze Live angle. Technically, I 793 00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:21,520 Speaker 2: projected value on Avala by decision. I think Cavalcante just 794 00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:24,560 Speaker 2: too big for her, much younger likely to pick her 795 00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:27,640 Speaker 2: apart in the striking, and I think I think that'll 796 00:37:27,640 --> 00:37:29,759 Speaker 2: do it for us.
