1 00:00:01,480 --> 00:00:05,040 Speaker 1: The Action Network Podcast Podcast. 2 00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:08,920 Speaker 2: If you are even remotely a savage, you'll run these 3 00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:16,599 Speaker 2: people over for a second. 4 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:31,680 Speaker 1: Welcome into the Action Network Podcast presented by bet MGM. 5 00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 1: I'm your host today, Brendan Glass Sheen back with Billy 6 00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:37,640 Speaker 1: Ward and Shanzillo. That means it's time for best bets 7 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 1: around the UFC card. This weekend, we head to Rio 8 00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:43,200 Speaker 1: UFC three to Ozho one. 9 00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:45,360 Speaker 3: We've got a lot to get to here. 10 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:49,839 Speaker 1: Prelims start at six on the ESPN Plus network. 11 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 3: You've got the prelims. 12 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 1: Another round of prelims at eight o'clock on ESPN ESPN 13 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 1: Plus and the main card is on pay per view. 14 00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 3: We will begin with the main event. 15 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 1: Alaha Andre Pantosia and Steve Eerseg is our main event 16 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 1: that we're going to start with on the podcast today, 17 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 1: the flyweight title fight Seanzillo. Let's leave with the main 18 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:16,959 Speaker 1: event and discuss Pantosia, why he is a shorter favorite. 19 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: I feel against ear Seg. I know he's got the 20 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 1: age discrepancy, but let's dive into the logistics of the 21 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:24,319 Speaker 1: fight and how you guys want to go. 22 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 3: About betting it. 23 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, I have to talk about the age first, so 24 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 4: er Seg is seven years younger, and as we regularly 25 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 4: talk about, once you get past the seven year age 26 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 4: gap between YOUC opponents, the younger fighter wins sixty five 27 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 4: percent of the time at average odds closer to fifty 28 00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 4: four percent, so they tend to be undervalued by about 29 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:45,759 Speaker 4: eleven percent in the betting markets. And Pantosia is thirty 30 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 4: four in a division where the average age is thirty 31 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 4: and that physical athletic cliff can come at any minute. 32 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 5: We don't know if it's going. 33 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 4: To come in this fight or his next fight or 34 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 4: three fights down the line, but it will come eventually 35 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 4: as long as he keeps fighting in the UFC. It's 36 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 4: just very difficult to keep cutting to one hundred and 37 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:07,880 Speaker 4: twenty five pounds or maintain that speed at one hundred 38 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 4: and twenty five pounds, and fractional differences in speed make 39 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:12,119 Speaker 4: a huge differential. 40 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 5: Erseg is going to. 41 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 4: Be the slightly taller man, the slightly longer man, and 42 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 4: I think that's going to matter a lot in terms 43 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:19,920 Speaker 4: of a jabs and a straight punching. He is the 44 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 4: better boxer in this matchup. I think Pantosia is the 45 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 4: better overall MMA fighter. He is all the grappling upside 46 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,920 Speaker 4: in this fight. We also haven't seen Erseg test it 47 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 4: over five rounds. He's taking a significant step up in 48 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 4: competition here. We also really haven't seen him defending back 49 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:40,079 Speaker 4: takes like Pantosia prefers to get to. It's his best position, 50 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 4: position where he likes to dominate from and rest a 51 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 4: little bit when he's getting tired because he doesn't have 52 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 4: the best cardio, but he's great at fighting through exhaustion, 53 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 4: and one of the ways he does that is find 54 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,800 Speaker 4: his opponents back and hold control for extended periods of 55 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 4: time unless he can choke them out. So there's a 56 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,080 Speaker 4: chance in this fight that Pantosia just comes out like 57 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 4: he did against Alex Perez and submits Erseg immediately. We 58 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:05,920 Speaker 4: really haven't seen Erseg against this level of grappler, But 59 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 4: if he doesn't and this fight extends, I think it 60 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 4: plays out close to fifty to fifty for at least 61 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:13,679 Speaker 4: the verse three rounds. I think Erseg's going to land 62 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 4: more head punches with scores well with judges. I think 63 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:18,679 Speaker 4: Pantosa is going to get the better of the grappling 64 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,959 Speaker 4: and keep himself relatively fresh, But I think in the 65 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 4: later rounds is where it gets really interesting and where 66 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 4: I really have no idea what's going to happen, because, 67 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:29,919 Speaker 4: as I said, Pantosia gets very tired, has very bad 68 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 4: body language latent fights, relies on that grappling to sort 69 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 4: of grind his way to the end once it gets there. 70 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 4: We've never seen Erseg pass the fifteen minute mark, so 71 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 4: complete unknown with regards to his cardio in a longerbout, 72 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 4: generally speaking, I tend to bet against it. But Steve 73 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 4: Erseg is very calm in the octagon. He doesn't waste 74 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 4: any energy. He doesn't waste any movement, even when he's 75 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 4: been wobbled in the past, when he's been taken down 76 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 4: in the past, he's not wasting energy going crazy. Doesn't 77 00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 4: fight a particularly high pace to where I think he 78 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 4: would exhaust himself. So I actually give Erseg a decent 79 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 4: chance of surviving in the later rounds. I'm probably if 80 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 4: I'm going to bet this fight, I'm probably going to 81 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 4: bet Erseg pre fight and then maybe look for a 82 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 4: live entry on Pantosia after rounds two or rounds three 83 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 4: if he's at plus money. If Ersag is early success. 84 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,359 Speaker 4: I just might want plus money on both sides of 85 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,479 Speaker 4: his fight if it does go later, because I'm not 86 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 4: sure what erss Cardio is going to look like, so 87 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 4: I lean Erzeg. It's not a particularly strong lean, but 88 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 4: if I'm betting at pre fight, I would lean Erzeg 89 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 4: and then I probably looked to live at Pantosia. 90 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 5: After rounds two or three. 91 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:37,799 Speaker 1: Pantosia Billy down to minus one eighty five, slightly shorter 92 00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: from earlier in the week, around minus one ninety. You 93 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 1: actually think Pantosia is undervalued based on the price from 94 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 1: earlier in the week and your Action network, YOUFC luck ratings. 95 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 3: Do you still feel the same way I do? 96 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 6: And you know, before I jump into my angle on it, 97 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 6: I don't think the age is that big of a deal. 98 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,599 Speaker 6: Pantosia turned thirty four two weeks ago and Ersag's turning 99 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 6: twenty nine this summer, so it's really like a five 100 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 6: year and a few months age gap. It's not huge. 101 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 6: You know, we talk about like the magic thirty five 102 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 6: year old Cliff for these lighter weight classes. He still 103 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 6: got a year. I still you know, in his last 104 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 6: fight he looked great didn't look old yet it's coming. 105 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,159 Speaker 6: Sean's one hundred percent right with that. You can't say 106 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 6: for sure when it's going to be. I would bet 107 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,720 Speaker 6: he's got a couple more still in his prime left 108 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 6: in him. Of course, we don't know. But the big 109 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 6: thing for me is it's only the fourth UFC fight 110 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 6: for Ersag hasn't fought anyone in the top ten. He's 111 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 6: looked great, but yeah, a lot of people can look 112 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 6: great against lower level opponents. And you know, the eleventh 113 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:37,280 Speaker 6: through fifteenth guy at flyweight that's not nearly as deep 114 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,039 Speaker 6: of a division as lightweight or welterweight, So there's a 115 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 6: pretty big skill gap between the top you know, two 116 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:46,480 Speaker 6: to five guys and you know number fifteen at flyweight, 117 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 6: where you might not say that at lightweight or one 118 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 6: forty five or whatever. The other thing for me, though, 119 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 6: and probably the biggest factor, Ers's last fight was less 120 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:57,359 Speaker 6: than two months ago, so I don't know, you know 121 00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 6: how healthy he came out of that, picked up a finish, 122 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 6: didn't look like he took much damage. You got to 123 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 6: imagine he takes at least a week off after that 124 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:07,679 Speaker 6: fight to recover, you know, come back from the weight cut. 125 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,359 Speaker 6: Travel back home to Australia all that stuff. That's a 126 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,720 Speaker 6: pretty short camp when you're fighting a guy like Pantosia, 127 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 6: because Pantojia's grappling is just such a skill that you 128 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:18,280 Speaker 6: have to worry about, and you have to decide as 129 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 6: a team, are we going to try to defend takedowns. 130 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 6: Are we gonna work just get ups, or we're gonna 131 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 6: work staying safe on the ground and trying to win 132 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 6: while we're on the feet. There's a lot that goes 133 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,039 Speaker 6: into that, and with a full camp, I could see 134 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 6: Ursag solving that puzzle. 135 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 7: I don't like it given the short notice. 136 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 6: There's some guys that I don't really care about that, 137 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 6: you know, the Islams of the world, the Habib's, the Hamzat, 138 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 6: They're doing the same thing in every fight, no matter 139 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 6: who the opponent is. I don't think that's the case 140 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:46,239 Speaker 6: here because Erseg primarily a boxer, but you know, fairly 141 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 6: well rounded overall, and you know, true mixed martial artist, 142 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 6: and he has to just watch out for that one 143 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 6: skill of Pantosia that's so dominant. I don't think he's 144 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 6: had the time to really build a game plan around that, 145 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 6: and plan that, So that's the biggest factor for me. 146 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:01,840 Speaker 6: I would honestly, if you don't want to pay the 147 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 6: juice on the minus one to eighty five, I kind 148 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:05,720 Speaker 6: of like the point spread where you can get that 149 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 6: bat at minus five and a half. I like those 150 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 6: in the five round fights because you don't need to 151 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 6: win every round. You can go four rounds to one 152 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 6: and still pay off that prop. And then obviously a finish, 153 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 6: late finish wouldn't surprise me for Pantosia. To Sean's point, 154 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 6: I don't think Erseg's going to be a guy that 155 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 6: especially struggles with cardio. But I'm gonna trust the guy 156 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 6: that we've seen do well down in this stretch, whether 157 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,400 Speaker 6: his body language look good or not. It's just one's 158 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 6: a known known and one's an unknown unknown. So I'm 159 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 6: a little bit worried about his five round experience, not 160 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 6: horribly so in the lighter weight class. 161 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 7: So I could also see a late stoppage for Pantosia. 162 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 4: Kind of seems like the UFC built this card around 163 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 4: Pantosia too, Like Erseg has no star power or whatsoever, 164 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 4: no social media prowess whatsoever. It's not like they're trying 165 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 4: to turn him into a star, whereas with Eliot Taporia 166 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 4: he was such a massive star in Europe. It seemed 167 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 4: like he was almost the a side of that fight 168 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 4: against Volkanovski. But to me Erseg's almost being brought in 169 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 4: here to Brazil as like a sacrifice for a Pantosia. 170 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 4: You know, this guy who isn't tested over five rounds, 171 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 4: He's taking such a big step up in competition. I 172 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 4: think he could be competitive. I think this fight maybe 173 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 4: even goes over. I'm not interested in betting the total 174 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 4: because I think there's a chance that Pantosa just submits 175 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:14,840 Speaker 4: him immediately. But if he doesn't, I think this plays 176 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 4: out pretty competitively. And yeah, the cardio is just such 177 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 4: an unknown angle for the final two rounds that, because 178 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 4: we've seen it from Pantosia, I kind of have to 179 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 4: favor him there. But I think will be okay. But 180 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 4: that's you know, that's where i'd attack. The live angle 181 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 4: is seeing how Ersex looking physically as we get towards 182 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 4: the end of that second round, third round, and how 183 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 4: he's managing his gas tank, and also the flow of 184 00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:35,440 Speaker 4: the fight. 185 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:37,960 Speaker 5: You know, how does Pantoja look too? Well? 186 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, I me the promotion needed one of their two 187 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:42,439 Speaker 6: Brazilian champions on this card if they're going to go 188 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:44,640 Speaker 6: to Rio, and the other one just fought at UFC 189 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 6: three hundred, so it's kind of like we got to 190 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,839 Speaker 6: get Pantoja fight. I think the rumors out there is 191 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 6: that they tried to get Mohamed Makaiev to step in. 192 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 6: Would have been I think, you know, a bigger fight 193 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 6: just in terms of name recognition. Machai is a little 194 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 6: bit longer resume, but he fought on the same card 195 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 6: er sick Dad, and perhaps why Lee didn't want to 196 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 6: take the fight on the quick turnaround, where Ers also 197 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 6: perhaps wisely realized that this might be the only opportunity 198 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 6: he gets. 199 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 3: Okay, very good. 200 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:14,439 Speaker 1: So Zarrillo, you're leaning towards a live angle potentially and Billy. 201 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 4: Erseg pre fight and then Pantosia alive. Yeah, but erseg 202 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 4: small prefight, not like a normal bat size, like probably 203 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 4: you know, a quarter unit or something, and then probably 204 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 4: trying to get the same on Pantosia and get plus 205 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 4: money both sides. 206 00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 1: Okay, excellent, Let's go to the fight of the night 207 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:33,360 Speaker 1: in bantamweight. We've got a matchup here between Jonathan Martinez 208 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 1: and Jose Aldo. Looking at the line all though plus 209 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 1: one twenty Martinez around minus one forty. Your assessment here 210 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 1: is zerrilla of the fight and how you'd like to 211 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:44,839 Speaker 1: approach betting this one. 212 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 4: So I'm worried that Aldo is a little bit public 213 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,679 Speaker 4: this week, not only in terms of the fact that 214 00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:51,679 Speaker 4: people are picking him at about a fifty percent rate 215 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 4: and has implied odds they are closer to forty two percent, 216 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 4: but also he's eight years older than Jonathan Martinez coming 217 00:09:57,640 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 4: back to defend his crown as the King of Rio 218 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 4: and the you know, as I just mentioned, with AERSC 219 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 4: fight lower weight class, big age differential, Martinez is probably 220 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 4: undervalued based off of that factor, on top of the 221 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 4: fact that seems like Aldo is a public side this 222 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 4: week showing declining athleticism smaller division, but he's the better 223 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,439 Speaker 4: boxer in this matchup, and he defends kicks really well. 224 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 4: He's very good at checking kicks, so that's Martinez's main weapon. 225 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 4: He throws kicks to all three levels, but he prefers 226 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:30,439 Speaker 4: the leg kicks, and although is a really good anti grappler, 227 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 4: Martinez probably isn't going to have grappling success here, so 228 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 4: this probably plays out as a close and competitive striking 229 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 4: fight where all those landing the better strikes or landing 230 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 4: the better head strikes and has the crowd in his favor. 231 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:44,959 Speaker 4: Martinez made more volume all those is probably going to 232 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 4: have a little bit more pop in his punches, So 233 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 4: I think all those live here, despite the fact that 234 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 4: he seems so public and seems like, you know, the 235 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 4: obvious fan favorite pick this week, but at plus one 236 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 4: point forty is where I'd probably enter. I also don't 237 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 4: mind him refight it plus two hundred. By decision, I 238 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 4: think this maybe goes all fifteen minutes. Billy is a 239 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 4: different angle concerning the total. But if it does go 240 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:11,439 Speaker 4: fifteen minutes, I think it'll be close and competitive, and 241 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 4: I think although we'll have the home judges and the 242 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 4: home crowd on his side, and I don't see Martinez 243 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:20,679 Speaker 4: pulling away significantly with the volume to counteract aut of 244 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:22,560 Speaker 4: those big moments. So I lean al though lean out 245 00:11:22,559 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 4: though by decision probably want plus one forty on the 246 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 4: money line, may even consider his decision only bet. I 247 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:30,960 Speaker 4: think he was sitting plus money there. I'm curious what 248 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 4: Billy thinks because he's going against the decision here, but 249 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 4: I'm curious about what Billy thinks regarding the decision only 250 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:39,439 Speaker 4: market taking all the plus one ten. 251 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 7: Yeah. 252 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 6: I actually I do like that angle on it on 253 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 6: although I will say it seems like in recent years 254 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 6: the UFC or the Athletic Commissions or whatever has done 255 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 6: a better job of getting not just hometown judges who 256 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,559 Speaker 6: are instantly going to decide based on who the more 257 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 6: Brazilian fighter. 258 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 7: Is as the first scorn criteria. 259 00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 6: So that's not we're not getting that like Freebee like 260 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:01,440 Speaker 6: we used to five six years ago when they went 261 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 6: to Brazil or London or whatever where it's like, if 262 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:05,559 Speaker 6: it goes to the judges, it doesn't matter what the 263 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,680 Speaker 6: fight look like. We know what's going to happen. I 264 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 6: do like that angle, though. If I was going to 265 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 6: bet the Aldo side, I think that's the way I 266 00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,960 Speaker 6: do it. I'm leaning towards Martinez. You know, the seven 267 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 6: year age gap when you're thirty seven and thirty means 268 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:18,600 Speaker 6: a lot more than if they were twenty five and 269 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 6: thirty two or whatever, like the farther in absolute sense, 270 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 6: we get the more that matters. But really I just 271 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:26,840 Speaker 6: don't know what to expect out of Jose Aldo. You know, 272 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:28,680 Speaker 6: we were talking about it before the show. It's the 273 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:31,840 Speaker 6: post Usada era. All of a sudden he's no longer retired. 274 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 6: That's at the very least suspicious, but also he's probably 275 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,840 Speaker 6: declined physically. I have no idea how much MMA he 276 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 6: was doing during his quote unquote retirement where he had 277 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,679 Speaker 6: three professional boxing matches. No idea if he was just 278 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,320 Speaker 6: out there partying, you know, taking these fights kind of 279 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 6: on a lark, or whether he was in his camp 280 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 6: doing his Jose Aldo stuff and kind of what I 281 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 6: arrive at with that when it's when you can see 282 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 6: such a high degree of volatility, is that's what makes 283 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 6: me want to take the unders. Because if Jose Aldo 284 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:01,319 Speaker 6: comes out looks like a thirty eight year old man 285 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 6: with seven hundred million significant strikes absorbed in his career, 286 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:07,319 Speaker 6: maybe we do get a finish out of Martinez, right Like, 287 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 6: he's a very impressive young striker coming up, you know, 288 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 6: finishing some people with leg kicks, has some good punching 289 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,839 Speaker 6: game as well. He could just be so much more 290 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,719 Speaker 6: athletically fit than although at this point that he just 291 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 6: started him, that would not shock me, But neither would 292 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:24,960 Speaker 6: prime Jose Aldo coming out throwing flying knees, jumping all 293 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 6: over the place, landing a bunch of power. That wouldn't 294 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,719 Speaker 6: really surprise me either. I just don't know which way 295 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:31,719 Speaker 6: we're gonna go, So then to get more than two 296 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 6: to one odds at the under two and a half, 297 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:35,719 Speaker 6: that feels like the obvious answer there. If I had 298 00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 6: to pick a side, I'd lean with Martinez. We know 299 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,199 Speaker 6: the age stats, we know all that. But I really 300 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 6: do like the Aldo decision only line because I just 301 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 6: don't see Martinez getting a decision in a close striking 302 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:49,559 Speaker 6: match when all those gonna look more impressive, look more dynamic, 303 00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 6: and have the crowd losing his mind every time he 304 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:53,960 Speaker 6: so much as jabs Jonathan Martinez. 305 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it mostly comes down to the head 306 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 4: strike differential and just the fact that al those likely 307 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 4: to be hitting the head, Martinez is probably gonna pull 308 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 4: away with like kick volume. 309 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 5: But how does that score with the judges? 310 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,559 Speaker 4: You know, especially in the arena, when every time Although 311 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 4: lands a punch that hits Martinez's guard, the crowd's going 312 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 4: to be going nuts. But when Martinez does anything, the 313 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:13,680 Speaker 4: crowd is just going to be dead silent. So you 314 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,920 Speaker 4: don't know what kind of influence that has on the judges, 315 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 4: regardless of where the judges are coming from. That's kind 316 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 4: of what I mean with regards to like the crowd 317 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 4: influencing the judges. It's just the reactions to things that 318 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 4: you know, the home guy does versus the things that 319 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 4: happened to him are so disparate. 320 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 5: We're in the in the Apex, it's even. 321 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 4: Crazier because you have you could hear everything, but you 322 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 4: have these corners reacting every time their fighter throws out 323 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 4: any sort of volume as though you know they just 324 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,840 Speaker 4: landed a knockout blow, and the big cheers and the explosions, 325 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 4: and it's like they're clearly trying to emphasize the enthusiasm 326 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 4: to try to sway the judges. So I find the 327 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:53,080 Speaker 4: Apex fight scoring to be very interesting. When one corner 328 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:55,240 Speaker 4: is particularly loud, it seems to get the judges in 329 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 4: their favor. 330 00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 6: We're gonna get a lot of good pojas from the 331 00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 6: adult corner in this one. 332 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 7: Every time he lands anything, it's gonna be evyan. 333 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 6: You know, if you do any jiu jitsu or know 334 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 6: any Portuguese fighters, you get a lot of that Poha. 335 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:10,280 Speaker 7: I'm looking forward to that this card in general, but 336 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 7: specifically for Alldough. 337 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 1: So Billy, if you want to play Martinez, is it 338 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 1: better for the folks to play him now? 339 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 3: Or do you think you can get shorter than minus 340 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 3: one forty? 341 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 7: I don't know. It stayed pretty firm. 342 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 6: I mean, there's there's been some movement, but he opened 343 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 6: it minus one thirty five a couple weeks ago, briefly 344 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 6: longer now back to minus one forty. I guess the 345 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 6: name recognition on Aldo could push it a little bit more, 346 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 6: but I don't think it's gonna be significant changes at 347 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 6: this point. I think this is about what we're gonna get. 348 00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 1: The Action Network podcast is presented by BETTMGM used Bonus 349 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 1: Code Action when signing up TA get up to fifteen 350 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 1: hundred dollars back and bonus bets if your first bet 351 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:55,120 Speaker 1: does not win.

Gambling problem called one eight hundred gambler. 357 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 1: Let's go to underdogs for this card. Seanzillo good week 358 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: for dogs generally speaking. 359 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 4: So there's a lot of fights that are pretty heavily 360 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 4: juiced for favorites, and I do feel like in the 361 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 4: fights that are more closely lined this fight are the 362 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 4: Alda fight we just discussed, the URSAG fight, and Kevin 363 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 4: Borjas at plus one point fifteen against Alessandra Costa. Those 364 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 4: are the fights that are more closely lined, and I 365 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 4: kind of like the underdogs and all of those matchups. 366 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 4: So maybe you know, if those three cash and one 367 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 4: of the big underdogs comes home, it'll absolutely be a 368 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 4: profitable week for dogs. But in terms of the first 369 00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 4: fight on the card, I'm going with Brazil on a 370 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:54,920 Speaker 4: lot of this cart I'm going against Brazil in the 371 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 4: first fight of the night. Borjas is the bigger man, 372 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 4: He's more durable, he throws more volume. I think Costa 373 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 4: hits harder and has all of the grappling upside, but 374 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 4: Borjas is pretty good takedown defense, and really good scrambling ability. 375 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:15,240 Speaker 4: Also with Costa, he prioritizes submissions over positions, which allows 376 00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 4: his opponents to scramble. If he doesn't lock into submission, 377 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,199 Speaker 4: and if he doesn't lock in the submission, it's not 378 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:20,919 Speaker 4: going to score it all. 379 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:21,479 Speaker 5: With the judges. 380 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 4: The takedown won't score, the submission attempt won't score. So 381 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 4: obviously a bit concerned taking a non Brazilian fighter in Brazil, 382 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:32,879 Speaker 4: especially in the first fight on the card, But the 383 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,000 Speaker 4: crab will be a little quieter, a little less full 384 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 4: by the time that first fight starts, And I just 385 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,479 Speaker 4: I think Borjas is a good style to make this 386 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:44,679 Speaker 4: fight close, if not look like the outright favorite, particularly 387 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:47,159 Speaker 4: if Costa doesn't grapple. I just don't think he's proactive 388 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 4: enough with the thing that will give him the biggest 389 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 4: advantage in this fight. And even if he does, I 390 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 4: think Borjas is a pretty good chance of defending it. 391 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,360 Speaker 4: So borhas to me gonna land the harder, cleaner strikes 392 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 4: and maybe even finished. His opponent had the you're finishing 393 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,159 Speaker 4: chance in this fight. So Borjas DOWNNU about plus one 394 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 4: ten plus one oh five for me in the first 395 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:07,199 Speaker 4: fighting the card. 396 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 3: Billy underdog for the week. 397 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:12,199 Speaker 7: What do you got? Yeah, real quick. I do like 398 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:13,080 Speaker 7: Borjas as well. 399 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 6: One of the reasons his loss against Joshua Van has 400 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 6: aged incredibly well because we're all super high on josh 401 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 6: Van now, so that kind of pushed me to that one. 402 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 6: In the markets with Zerrilla too, he's came down to 403 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 6: plus one ten I think is the best line now. 404 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:26,879 Speaker 4: Oh god, I mean he was like plus one sixty 405 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:30,160 Speaker 4: earlier in the week. His lines really crashed, So yeah, 406 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 4: big movement towards Borjas. But me even closes the fareb 407 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 4: we'll see. 408 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm kicking myself for not getting on that one 409 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:38,399 Speaker 6: in the luck ratings are taking that one earlier. But 410 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:42,200 Speaker 6: the other non Brazilian I'm on is Arnesta Karasdi fighting 411 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 6: Dion Barbosa, both of them making their USC debut. Barboso 412 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:48,439 Speaker 6: is a big favorite because she finished her Contender Series 413 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 6: fight by armbar where Karasiti won a split decision. I 414 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 6: thought it was pretty clearly the right decision. It wasn't 415 00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 6: one where I think she was probably the real loser. 416 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 6: But Barboza is extremely one dimensional. She had like four 417 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 6: minutes of control time in her Contender Series fight I 418 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,719 Speaker 6: think landed like six strikes, like barely even attempted to 419 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 6: do any damage. She is selling out for submissions and 420 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 6: if she doesn't get them, doesn't really have a plan. 421 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:13,920 Speaker 6: Be Karsity is more of a striker, has a huge 422 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 6: reach advantage. I think she's three inches taller and four 423 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:17,640 Speaker 6: and a half inches in reach. 424 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:20,560 Speaker 7: Pretty big. We're now in the big cage, not the 425 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:21,800 Speaker 7: consenter series cage. 426 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:25,200 Speaker 6: Karosity could easily not easily, but has a shot to 427 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 6: dance around on the outside. You know, stick jabs, throw 428 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 6: long punches, and if Barbosa doesn't get that takedown, she's 429 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 6: got nothing. And it's gonna look so wherever this one 430 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 6: takes place, it's gonna be very one sided, even to 431 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 6: the point where I'm not worried about Brazilian judges going 432 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 6: against Karasity because you can't or not Brazilian judges, but 433 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 6: judges in Brazil influenced by the crowd, because karsites outlander. 434 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 6: You know, three to one on the feet, and if 435 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,440 Speaker 6: Barboza gets it to the ground, she's got a massive edge. 436 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:53,399 Speaker 6: So I like the long odds. You can get a 437 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 6: little bit better than two to one. I think plus 438 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 6: two tons the best out there now, it just seems 439 00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 6: like too too strong of a line for. 440 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 7: Two women and both making their UFC debut. 441 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,600 Speaker 6: Neither has fought really tough competition, and it's a pretty 442 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:06,840 Speaker 6: binary fight with one having a big advantage in one 443 00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 6: area and one in the other. 444 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, I was gonna say pretty binary. I'm interested in 445 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:12,720 Speaker 4: that ends inside the distance of plus money. It just 446 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 4: seems like the stylistic matchup should align with one of 447 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:17,320 Speaker 4: them finding a finish. 448 00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:20,160 Speaker 6: Karasite just doesn't seem to hit very hard though. She's 449 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:23,639 Speaker 6: just kind of a volume punch, so I don't hate that angle. 450 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 6: But if you're doing that, it probably favors Barbosa, So 451 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,879 Speaker 6: you might as well take inside the distance and you 452 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 6: could play those too, because I think Barbosa inside the 453 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:34,719 Speaker 6: distance pretty heavily. Plus money go KAROSITI decision only like 454 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:36,719 Speaker 6: you could get get cute with it, because I think 455 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 6: that's a good point too. 456 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 4: I think the interesting dynamic here and in a lot 457 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:42,680 Speaker 4: of fights like this, is where one fighter is a 458 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:46,680 Speaker 4: big reach advantage better striker. How much power does Karasiti 459 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 4: have to scare Barbosa off of her? Because if she 460 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 4: doesn't have any power in her hands, the reach advantage 461 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,119 Speaker 4: doesn't matter because Barbosa is just going to be sticking 462 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 4: to her the entire time and trying to wear on 463 00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 4: her and making this fight dirty. But if she has 464 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 4: a little bit of power to get respect yet, this 465 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:05,119 Speaker 4: is probably Kerocedes fight, so very interesting underdog play. I 466 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,200 Speaker 4: have to write a deeper breakdown on this one for 467 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:10,120 Speaker 4: my four article this week because nobody wanted to claim 468 00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 4: this fight. So I'm interested to see that Billy had 469 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 4: a strong take on this fight because nobody claimed this 470 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 4: fight for me this week, so I may I may 471 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:18,480 Speaker 4: end up on the same side as you. 472 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 7: A little bit of behind the scene tier. 473 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,120 Speaker 6: I actually much later went back and said I would 474 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 6: do that one, but I was told you were happy 475 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 6: to write that one up, so I got to it late. 476 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 7: Unfortunately it was a slow week for me. 477 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, they'd been windling down throughout the week, so I 478 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 4: think I think it's a crew. We have pretty strong 479 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:36,679 Speaker 4: takes on this card because that there's only like two 480 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 4: left for me that weren't claimed by the rest of 481 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:41,240 Speaker 4: our staff this week, and you were on a Billy. 482 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,399 Speaker 1: Three inch difference in height and four and a half 483 00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 1: four and a half inches in reach is the is 484 00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 1: the difference there. 485 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 6: And to expand on Zerola's point about the power, I 486 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 6: think Kerosait is also a really good athlete. She was 487 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 6: like a college level swimmer before she got there. That 488 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 6: sometimes translates to having enough footwork and mobility and cardio 489 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:02,919 Speaker 6: where even if you don't have the power or you 490 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 6: can just kind of dance and run away. So I 491 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:08,120 Speaker 6: think if you're if you're rooting for kearrosity here, expect 492 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 6: to not be entertained necessarily. But you know, I'm Rooin 493 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 6: Ford to just dance around on the outside for fifteen minutes. 494 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 7: Not show. 495 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:20,440 Speaker 4: She moved to a legitimate jim. She moved from Lithuania 496 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 4: to MMA Masters and has been training there since she 497 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:25,920 Speaker 4: earned her UFC contract, So could see some pretty significant 498 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:26,920 Speaker 4: improvements from her as well. 499 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 7: Yeah. 500 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 6: I mean we've been talking about the past couple weeks 501 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:31,760 Speaker 6: with fighters that all of a sudden they have the 502 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,399 Speaker 6: resources to train at a real gym and not just 503 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:36,679 Speaker 6: like their three buddies and their hometown or whatever, and 504 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 6: that can make a big difference. 505 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, UFC three oh one in Rio. Let's head to 506 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 1: the prop market. What jumps out? Where's some value in 507 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 1: the prop market? 508 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 7: This week? 509 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:46,679 Speaker 3: Sean. 510 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 7: Yeah. 511 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:50,119 Speaker 4: The first prop that was just my blind read was 512 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:54,919 Speaker 4: Kyle Ojio by Tko or Ko against Paul Craig. He 513 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 4: said this week that he plans to go for the knockout, 514 00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:00,439 Speaker 4: and I don't generally believe what fighters say, but this 515 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,639 Speaker 4: is a setup fight for the UFC to give this 516 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,159 Speaker 4: kid a highlight real knockout and continue to advance him 517 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 4: up the rankings, and I think he knows that he 518 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 4: needs some finishes in order to. 519 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:10,880 Speaker 5: Advance up the rankings. 520 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,120 Speaker 4: If this plays out as jiu jitsu match, Paul Craig 521 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 4: absolutely has a chance, because he does against anybody in 522 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 4: a jiu jitsu match, especially if he's going to. 523 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 5: Be on his back. 524 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 4: Kyo is the much better wrestler, he's the better striker, 525 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 4: it's the stronger guy, but Paul Craig just makes everything 526 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 4: chaotic once you're on the ground, and I doubt Kyo 527 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 4: really wants to engage him there. I also haven't been 528 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:35,119 Speaker 4: particularly impressed by Kyo's offensive submission game. He is very 529 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:39,320 Speaker 4: good offensive jiu jitsu control, but he doesn't necessarily actively 530 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:41,880 Speaker 4: pursue submissions, and he's had some fighters in very dangerous 531 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:45,919 Speaker 4: positions and hasn't actively pursued the submissions either. So if 532 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 4: they play a jiu jitsu match, I think Craig maybe 533 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:51,159 Speaker 4: has the higher finishing upside. But if this is going 534 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,399 Speaker 4: to play as a striking match, if Kyo is going 535 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:57,399 Speaker 4: to anti grapple or uses wrestling defensively to keep this 536 00:23:57,440 --> 00:23:59,960 Speaker 4: fight standing, I think he's going to land an overhand 537 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 4: and knock Paul Craig out. So Kyle Ohio by KO 538 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:06,399 Speaker 4: or TKO at PLUSQ twenty five and then I'm just 539 00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:10,280 Speaker 4: gonna go ahead and co sign on one of Billy's 540 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,119 Speaker 4: favorite bets on this card, because Kyle is one of 541 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 4: my favorite bets on this card in terms of getting 542 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 4: the knockout or finish. And then Mauricio Hoofi at even 543 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 4: money to get a knockout. Billy's gonna say for later, 544 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 4: but I just want to go ahead and co sign 545 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:26,119 Speaker 4: on that because that's my other favorite prop on this card. 546 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:29,160 Speaker 4: I think Jamie Malarky's chin is just completely shot, so 547 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 4: I think Hoofy also set up for a highlight reel knockout. 548 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 1: More on that from Billy and best bets and Billy 549 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 1: for your prop, what do you have for us? 550 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:40,080 Speaker 7: Yeah? 551 00:24:40,119 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 6: I do like both the ones I've got a slight 552 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 6: version vary into what Sean said in My Best Basketball 553 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 6: Get that in a second. I like Michelle Pejeda in 554 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:49,879 Speaker 6: round one at plus one twenty. Since he came up 555 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 6: to middleweight, he's finished both of his fights in like 556 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:55,200 Speaker 6: a minute. Ihor Potierra coming down from two oho five. 557 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 6: That was the only fight in the UFC he looked 558 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 6: not terrible in I don't even want to say Gray 559 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,440 Speaker 6: a little bit dangerous. He's got the striking, he's got 560 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 6: decent power. He has like four knockdowns. He's managed to 561 00:25:06,040 --> 00:25:09,399 Speaker 6: score knockdowns and still lose a fight, which is, you know, 562 00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 6: quite the stat for EWHRR Pottieria. But just like Sean 563 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:14,640 Speaker 6: was talking about a couple of weeks ago, Paieda has 564 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 6: that easy button if he wants to grapple it all here. 565 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 6: He's so big and strong and physically imposing on the feet, 566 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 6: he could probably knock him out. I would I would 567 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 6: make paid a favorite in a straight kickboxing match here, 568 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 6: But you mix in grappling in there and how bad 569 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:30,360 Speaker 6: Ehors looked on the ground, and. 570 00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:31,760 Speaker 7: I don't think it takes long. 571 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,520 Speaker 6: I thought we would probably see Paida actually favored down 572 00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:36,240 Speaker 6: this one in round one, So to get plus money 573 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 6: on that, I'm pretty happy. And I'm also excited the 574 00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 6: UFC is doing the Showgun Who a revenge tour here 575 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:45,320 Speaker 6: Ehorr retired Showgun who a massive underdog to Michelle Paeda. 576 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:49,159 Speaker 6: Paul Craig beat Showgun Who a massive underdog to kyob Ohio. 577 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,200 Speaker 6: So love to see their respect paid to the legend, 578 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,160 Speaker 6: even though he's not stepping into the cage anymore. 579 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 4: I noticed the same game parlay for Pehera and under 580 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 4: one and a half round about minus one ten, minus 581 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 4: one fifteen, So just an alternate way to play that 582 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,119 Speaker 4: and to get the extra two and a half minutes 583 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:08,880 Speaker 4: where you have it available. Ehor gets very tired after 584 00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 4: round one. In fact, if Ehor lands a knockdown in 585 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:14,720 Speaker 4: round one and the odds move and you can get 586 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 4: a decent price a Michelle Pehera after round one, after 587 00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 4: he potentially loses round one, I would absolutely take that 588 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 4: because moving up to middleweight he should have better cardio. 589 00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:25,399 Speaker 4: We haven't seen that yet, and Ewhor just has terrible 590 00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:26,639 Speaker 4: cardio after five minutes. 591 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:30,200 Speaker 3: All right, gents, let's head to uh best bets. 592 00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:31,879 Speaker 1: I'll just all said it to Billy first, just to 593 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 1: pick up where we were talking there about, is it. 594 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 3: Roughy hoofy hoofy Okay. 595 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, he's nine on one as a professional. All ten 596 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 6: of his fights have ended with somebody getting knocked out. 597 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 6: And basically, just to echo what Sean said, Jamie Malarkey 598 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:51,399 Speaker 6: just seems to have no chin. He's not old. He 599 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,440 Speaker 6: hasn't even had that many fights. I mean twenty four fights. 600 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 6: It's decent, he's still twenty nine, but he's got knocked 601 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:58,920 Speaker 6: out bad. Like, it's not just the fact that he's 602 00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 6: been knocked out. He's three and three over his last six. 603 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:04,960 Speaker 6: All the losses were knockouts. Thought he died against Jalen 604 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:07,480 Speaker 6: Turner like I was surprised to see him get up 605 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 6: successfully in those fight starts by Nazareth Hakparas in his 606 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 6: last fight that was just December, not a huge amount 607 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:18,200 Speaker 6: of time off two bad knockouts in the last eleven months. 608 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 6: I think Malarky still got something left in the tank, 609 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:22,679 Speaker 6: but he needs matchups against guys who are going to 610 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:26,520 Speaker 6: engage him in the grappling, more technical striking matchups always 611 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 6: going to take his one here from Hoofy, So that 612 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,359 Speaker 6: should be so much closer to his money line instead, 613 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 6: It's like a much better price then the only I 614 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 6: guess calveat to the Kyle Ohio knockout. I was actually 615 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 6: really hoping to get Kyo inside the by submission at 616 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 6: big plus money this week, same line as knockout the 617 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:49,919 Speaker 6: books have. The books have that as same likelihood as 618 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 6: a finish by strikes, which I actually agree with. I 619 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:54,720 Speaker 6: thought that was a pretty sharp call by the odds 620 00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 6: makers on that one. 621 00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:58,120 Speaker 7: Kyle's very accomplished grappler. 622 00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 6: In his own right judo brown belt on some like 623 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:04,680 Speaker 6: national level judo championships as a kid. I don't see 624 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:07,400 Speaker 6: Craig getting the takedown here, but I could see Paul 625 00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 6: Craig doing his stupid, like horrible double leg that doesn't 626 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:13,160 Speaker 6: work flop to my back. Kyle hits him a little 627 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 6: bit and then just locks up with submission in a 628 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:17,359 Speaker 6: club and sub and I could also see Kyo just 629 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 6: kind of wanting to engage with Craig in a straight 630 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:22,680 Speaker 6: up grappling match, like he doesn't seem like the type 631 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 6: is going to shy away from that high level black 632 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 6: belt himself. That's minus one twenty five. I would say 633 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 6: that a knockout is slightly more likely than a submission. 634 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:34,120 Speaker 6: I just don't think it's what the market is reflecting. 635 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,160 Speaker 6: So I'm going to cover my bases with the minus 636 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 6: one twenty five be pulling for Sean's back because obviously 637 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 6: we both cash in that case. But selfishly, I also 638 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 6: want to see some grappling in this one. It would 639 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 6: be a really fun matchup. You know, sometimes there's real slow, 640 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 6: technical grapplers and it kind of isn't that fun? 641 00:28:49,960 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 7: These guys go for it. 642 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 6: Paul Craig is just desperately throwing up submissions, hoping for 643 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 6: the best, trying weird calf slicers. It'll be a fun 644 00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 6: one if it does hit the match, and if it doesn't, 645 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 6: then Kyle's got your knack count and we both cash 646 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:01,240 Speaker 6: either way. 647 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, Kyle loves controlling opponents from guard. I mean, this 648 00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 4: is this is matchmaking beauty right here. This is exactly 649 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 4: what they wanted is Kyle had to take him down 650 00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 4: and see what Paul Craigan knew, see if he can 651 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,000 Speaker 4: even advance best Paul Greig's guard. I mean, I would 652 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 4: absolutely love to see grappling in this match, even though 653 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 4: I have a knockout ticket, Like, yeah, who does. 654 00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 1: Two best bets from Billyzerillo. You've got two as well. 655 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:23,440 Speaker 1: Take us home here. 656 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:24,680 Speaker 3: Well, I did have two. 657 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 4: Gene Silva has now steamed dramatically and wayns This morning, 658 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 4: William Gomies came in two and a half pounds underneath 659 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 4: the one hundred and forty six pound limit, and he 660 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 4: looked absolutely terrible on the scale. I would be kind 661 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:40,120 Speaker 4: of surprised if they let this fight go forward. It 662 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:43,200 Speaker 4: seems like they might. But Gomies was a very public 663 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 4: underdog this week, or a very public side, I should 664 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 4: say this week. 665 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:47,720 Speaker 5: This is a pick them fight. 666 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:50,680 Speaker 4: But Gomees was getting picked at around sixty percent of 667 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 4: the time at across the data points I'm using obviously 668 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:56,720 Speaker 4: he had the weight miss, the line steamed, or not 669 00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 4: the weight miss, but the weight issue. The line steamed 670 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 4: towards Silva, and I think it's probably out of range now. 671 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 4: Gomees is the taller, the longer fighter, but he doesn't 672 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:10,080 Speaker 4: engage his opponents very actively, and I think he's gonna 673 00:30:10,080 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 4: be getting bootle out here. I think the crowd is 674 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 4: going to be acting reacting massively anytime Silva's pressuring or 675 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:20,080 Speaker 4: throwing combinations, because he's going to be the guy moving forward, 676 00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 4: and regardless of how the fight plays out, I think 677 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 4: it's going to be close. But I do think Silva's 678 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 4: advancement and forward pressure and octagon control may actually be 679 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 4: what decides it for the judges. I know fights are 680 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,680 Speaker 4: scored on damage. I think Gomes is going to land 681 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 4: more kicks. I think Silva is just going to be 682 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 4: more active, and also like the cardio could be an 683 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 4: issue for Gomees too now after the light miss. So 684 00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 4: if you can get Silva minus one thirty five are better, 685 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 4: I think I'm interested still, but minus won fifty not 686 00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 4: thank you. And then my final bet Joe Anderson Brito, 687 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 4: I think he's just too physical for Jack Shore Jack Shuer. 688 00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:55,960 Speaker 4: I bet against him when he was at one thirty 689 00:30:56,000 --> 00:31:00,600 Speaker 4: five with Ricky Simone, who seemed like the perfect stylistic 690 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 4: matchup to be Jack Shorre, and he ended up knocking 691 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 4: him out. But it was just very evident that Sure 692 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 4: struggles against guys who are physically stronger than him, who 693 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 4: employ a simpler game plan, and that's basically what he's 694 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:13,200 Speaker 4: facing with Joe Anderson Brito. Except for the bat he's 695 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 4: moved up from one thirty five to one forty five, 696 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 4: and I don't think Jack Shorre necessarily has the frame 697 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:21,920 Speaker 4: or the physicality for one forty five, whereas Brito seems 698 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 4: like one of the more physical one forty five ers 699 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 4: out there. So I think he's gonna man handle Jack Shore. 700 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 4: He's an absolute powerhouse. If he doesn't finish him, though 701 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 4: within the first ten minutes, I think Shore's live to 702 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:35,800 Speaker 4: potentially secure a round three finish. So Joe Anderson Brito 703 00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 4: pre fight up to about minus one seventy five, and 704 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 4: then I would consider Jack Shorre live after round two 705 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 4: if Brido doesn't get him out of there. Maybe not 706 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 4: hedge all the way out of my position, but definitely 707 00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 4: a piece of it. Brito's looking particularly tired, so Brito 708 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 4: inside the distance, but also his money line up to 709 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:52,320 Speaker 4: about minus one seventy five. 710 00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:54,719 Speaker 3: Alrighty fellas, that's gonna do it. 711 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 1: UFC three to zero one in Rio. 712 00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:58,280 Speaker 3: I'll get started at six Eastern. 713 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 1: The prelimbs at six, more prelims at eight o'clock on 714 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:05,720 Speaker 1: the ESPN family of networks, and the pay per view 715 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:09,400 Speaker 1: main card starts at ten o'clock.
