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 --> 00:00:28,479
Speaker 2: people over for a second. Hello and welcome to the

4
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:31,600
Speaker 2: Action Network Podcast presented by bet MGM. I'm Sean Zula,

5
00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:34,919
Speaker 2: joined today by former professional fighter Billy Word to discuss

6
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 2: UFC Denver going down on Saturday night, another card at elevation,

7
00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 2: so we will discuss some live betting angles which are

8
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 2: always important when these fighters go and fight at a

9
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:51,279
Speaker 2: mile high elevation because everybody gases out a little bit

10
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 2: quicker than they tend to at sea level, and it

11
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:58,600
Speaker 2: makes live betting extremely interesting. It makes late props, round two,

12
00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 2: round three props. That's really interesting to look at for

13
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 2: a lot of these fights as we do ten to

14
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:07,559
Speaker 2: get later finishes and also more submissions, less knockout power.

15
00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 2: I feel like the fighters are actually gassing out in

16
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 2: the locker room and on the way on the walk

17
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 2: to the cage. They just don't have their full energy

18
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,440
Speaker 2: to even land knockout punches once they get in there.

19
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 2: But submissions tend to increase, and late finishes do tend

20
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:24,319
Speaker 2: to increase, especially by submission when we go to elevation

21
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 2: and looking at our main event, Rose Namahunas versus Tracy Cortes.

22
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:31,720
Speaker 2: Cortes taking this fight on short notice in place of

23
00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 2: Macon Barber. That's not a great sign considering she's taking

24
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 2: this on short notice, going up at elevation, and also

25
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:42,120
Speaker 2: facing a former champion in Rose. Now Rose, former straweight,

26
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 2: moved up to one twenty five, doesn't necessarily look like

27
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 2: she has the physique to fill out fully for that division.

28
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 2: I don't really think she added a ton of muscle,

29
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 2: but she did look better at her second fight in

30
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 2: the division as opposed to her first fight. The one

31
00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 2: thing with Rose and mind is difficult to lay juice

32
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 2: on her. She just doesn't her big price tags. Typically.

33
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 2: She had the fight with Carlos Sparz obviously, where they

34
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 2: just stared at each other for twenty five minutes and

35
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 2: danced around the cage. But Rose isn't proactive all the time,

36
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 2: and she tends to let her opponents stay in rounds

37
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 2: on volume. When she gets taken down, she tends to

38
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 2: stay on her back, and she hasn't shown the best

39
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 2: cardio in the past either. But that said, the fact

40
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 2: that Cortes has taken this fight on short note has

41
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 2: never been five rounds in her career. That sort of

42
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 2: neutralizes the cardio angle for me to a degree. So

43
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,359
Speaker 2: the two ways I'm looking at playing this. The initial

44
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,520
Speaker 2: way I saw Rose by decision plus one fifteen, nice

45
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 2: cut and dry and easy. You can actually get Rose

46
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:37,079
Speaker 2: in the over two and a half rounds. In the

47
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,119
Speaker 2: same game, Parlay at minus one twenty five would absolutely

48
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 2: play that it was at sea level, a little bit

49
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 2: less interested in taking the price adjustment and laying jews

50
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 2: just because I don't see Rose getting a finished at

51
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,519
Speaker 2: sea level in the late rounds at a particularly consistent clip.

52
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 2: But in Denver I think it's a much higher probability,

53
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 2: especially considering short notice nature and Kort has never been

54
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,960
Speaker 2: five rounds. Not high on either of these fighters, typically

55
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 2: both women. I typically bet against what going to take

56
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,400
Speaker 2: Doug Rose here, and as I said late iterations, I

57
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 2: think Billy is thinking along the same lines Rose by

58
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,200
Speaker 2: decision or Rose and late props, and considering the difference

59
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 2: between plus one fifteen for Decision and plus or minus

60
00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 2: one twenty five for Rose in the over two and

61
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,519
Speaker 2: a half, I'd rather have the final two and a

62
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,520
Speaker 2: half rounds plus rows at minus one twenty five, So

63
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:30,079
Speaker 2: taking Rose and Rose on the scorecards. Billy, I think

64
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 2: we have a pretty similar breakdown for this fight and

65
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 2: a pretty similar bretting approach. I just don't have access

66
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 2: to that round four to five or decision prop that

67
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:38,839
Speaker 2: you seem to be able to get.

68
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, to be fair, I greatly prefer waiting

69
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 3: to bet Rose live for a couple of reasons here.

70
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 3: I mean, you mentioned she looked better in her second

71
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 3: fight at one twenty five. That's because their second fight

72
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 3: one twenty five was against another straweight. It was Amanda Hebis,

73
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 3: who bounces back and forth between the two divisions.

74
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 4: Cebus really should be at one fifteen all the time.

75
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,240
Speaker 3: I don't know why she insists I'm coming up every

76
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 3: so often, but that's one of the reasons. And yeah,

77
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 3: if it weren't for the short notice, I'd be all

78
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 3: over Tracy Cortez here. With that said, Cortes was training

79
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 3: for a fight the next week, so it's not like

80
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 3: she was totally drawing dead and coming in.

81
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 4: Off the street.

82
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 3: It's still a big ass to then go to Denver

83
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 3: with two extra rounds against a fighter and Rose who

84
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 3: trains in Colorado. That's another big factor for me here

85
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 3: on the cardio and yeah.

86
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 4: I'm like you.

87
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 3: I've I've looked up bet against Tracy Cortes often in

88
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,119
Speaker 3: the past, and as anyone can look up for UFC record,

89
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 3: She's undefeated in the promotion, so that has not gone

90
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,800
Speaker 3: well for me. That really is preventing me from wanting

91
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 3: to take anything pre fight on Rose. I think Cortes

92
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,480
Speaker 3: is at this point probably the better fighter, the more

93
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 3: powerful fighter, going to be more aggressive, just do more early,

94
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 3: and I'm just trying to wait to see if we

95
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,840
Speaker 3: can get Nami Unis a plus money in the second, third,

96
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:52,560
Speaker 3: fourth round, assuming that Cortez hits a wall here. I

97
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 3: would be more comfortable bet in Cortez pre fight if

98
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,839
Speaker 3: she had an ounce of finishing ability, but she's never finished.

99
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,839
Speaker 3: The UFC fight also had a lot of close decisions.

100
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,040
Speaker 3: You know, if you're coming in on short notice at

101
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 3: a fight at elevation, you kind of have to sell

102
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 3: out and just try to get the stopage. We'll talk

103
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,320
Speaker 3: about that and our Fight of the night coming out

104
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 3: pretty soon. It's just a fight IQ thing. You know,

105
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 3: you don't have twenty five minutes and you most likely

106
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 3: you got to go for it. We've just never seen

107
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 3: that from Tracy, which is keeping me off for a

108
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 3: pre fight. Otherwise I might be on that side. But yeah,

109
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 3: obviously we're going to talk about a lot of live

110
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 3: betting here. Definitely prefer Rose live. If I had to

111
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 3: take it pre fight, it'd be that four or five decision,

112
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 3: the same game parlay and over two and a half

113
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,880
Speaker 3: at a five cents price difference is pretty much the

114
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 3: same thing any of those I like, but I would

115
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:37,599
Speaker 3: much rather wait to see if we can get plus

116
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,119
Speaker 3: money midway through this one.

117
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 2: Good stuff. Yeah, I typically look to live bet against Rose.

118
00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 2: It's an odd spot where I'm looking to lie bet

119
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 2: on her, but she trains at elevation. She doesn't have

120
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,799
Speaker 2: the best cardio, but of the two, she should handle

121
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 2: the conditions much better. Our far of the night, as

122
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 2: you just tease Drew Dover against John Silva Silva coming

123
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 2: back after a knockout against Charles Jordaane, where we discussed

124
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 2: that fight at length and decided in a vacuum where

125
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 2: you can take every Brazilian that we can at a

126
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,840
Speaker 2: coin flip price against any Canadian that we can. One

127
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 2: of my favorite tweets from that card Nicki Gambler on

128
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 2: Twitter irish Ema may Fan. I'm not familiar with Geen Silva,

129
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 2: but before he had even thrown a single punch, he

130
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 2: was moving in this deliberate, confident way that told me, oh,

131
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 2: this guy is used to knocking people dead when he

132
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 2: hits them. I'm not sure how to explain it, but

133
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 2: it's the same way that Figgi and Yoel move meaning

134
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:28,040
Speaker 2: he have some Figuraedo and Yol romero and then three

135
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 2: minutes later, right after the knockout, because he tweeted that

136
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 2: between rounds, Yeah, that was the movement. A man who

137
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 2: truly unequivocally believes that if he hits.

138
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:34,919
Speaker 4: You, you're fucked.

139
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:39,520
Speaker 2: You can't fake that. Geen Silva is immediately one of

140
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 2: my favorite fighters. I mean, he's like high, fighting opponents

141
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 2: for throwing cool strikes against him, He's like hugging them

142
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 2: between rounds. I don't know if there's like something off

143
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:53,839
Speaker 2: with him or if he's like the best at playing

144
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 2: mind games I've ever seen by being nice, you know,

145
00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 2: killing people with literally like killing opponents with kindness. And

146
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 2: he turns the switch on and he's right right in

147
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 2: Jordain's face and Jordaanin's like, wait, man, you were high

148
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:05,720
Speaker 2: fiving maybe a minute ago. What's going on?

149
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 4: H Yeah.

150
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 2: I really like Silva. I think he's super fun to watch.

151
00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 2: He's crazy aggressive. I think the one thing people are

152
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 2: overlooking here because it's fight at night and or the

153
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 2: expected fight of the night, we expect these two to

154
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 2: just swing it out. Drew Dover, I think in top

155
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 2: time him if he wants to, if he fights like intelligently.

156
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 2: I don't think Silva has great takedown defense, and we've

157
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,280
Speaker 2: seen Dover proactively wrestle in the past. He doesn't do

158
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 2: it often, but what he wants to do it, he

159
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 2: can do it, and he can get takedowns and spend

160
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 2: time on top of people. He's terrible when people try

161
00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 2: to top time him, and maybe there's a chance Silva

162
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 2: could do it back to him. I mean, we've discussed

163
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 2: Silva and the fighting nerds and the fact that these

164
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 2: guys are well trained and come in with the game plans.

165
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,640
Speaker 2: But I think Silva is very much more of a striker,

166
00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 2: and I don't know if he's his fight i Q

167
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 2: is on the same level as his other teammates, but

168
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 2: in terms of the technical breakdown in the fight or

169
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 2: how I see it playing out. Early if they do

170
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 2: slug it out. I think Silva just has better hardware.

171
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 2: He's smaller technically. He's coming up division to face Dover

172
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 2: on short notice. That dober chin, though, was starting to

173
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 2: go a little bit, and Dover's style he absorbed strikes

174
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 2: at like forty nine percent. He takes one to give one,

175
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 2: and that's great when you have elite durability, but that

176
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 2: durability started to go. Terms m Kenny knocked him down,

177
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 2: dober got back up, finished him, but then Dover got

178
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 2: KOed by Vola and his last fight I think it

179
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 2: was against the voy of you know, he kept getting

180
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 2: taken down, popping up. He was winning the striking, but

181
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,400
Speaker 2: no like real finishing threat against him in that fight.

182
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,440
Speaker 2: I think Silva is going to hit the chin in

183
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 2: round one. Silva by ko silver round one props I

184
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 2: think are interesting. And then Dover is the guy who

185
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 2: trains the elevation and he is the guy more suited

186
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 2: to this weight class. I still think Silva moneylined minus

187
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,680
Speaker 2: one ten good pre fight and then probably live bet

188
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 2: into Dover after round one to hedge off a little bit,

189
00:08:55,920 --> 00:09:00,959
Speaker 2: but Silva finished props his KO one. I think those

190
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 2: are all iterations worth playing him into a live bet

191
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:06,839
Speaker 2: on Dover. Thirty six year old Dover does that better,

192
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 2: probably has better cardio given where he trains and the

193
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 2: fact that you know Silva's now fighting twice in three weeks.

194
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,840
Speaker 2: But yeah, it's it's Silva refight as the side for

195
00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 2: me for sure. And I think you kind of agree

196
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 2: on the Silver Violence into Dover live bet.

197
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I teased it before. I think he's

198
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,840
Speaker 3: smart enough or this team as well trained enough to understand, hey,

199
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 3: we're here for a good time, not a long time.

200
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:32,680
Speaker 4: You got to sell out and try to get this knockout.

201
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 3: I think we never know what these conversations are like backstage,

202
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:37,680
Speaker 3: but if I'm in his corner, he's like, hey, we

203
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 3: don't want to be doing this for fifteen minutes against

204
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 3: a bigger guy who trains at elevation. It's kind of

205
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:45,240
Speaker 3: tricky with these quick turnaround fights. Some guys, if they're

206
00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:48,080
Speaker 3: super disciplined, they'll look better the next time around because

207
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 3: they were already in shape, they stayed in the gym

208
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 3: if they didn't take a lot of damage. Some guys

209
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 3: that go out and you know, enjoy their knockout of

210
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:57,200
Speaker 3: the night bonus real heavily in Vegas or wherever they're at,

211
00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 3: and don't look as great on the short turnaround. That

212
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,760
Speaker 3: one we don't really know, but yeah, I'm not worried

213
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:04,880
Speaker 3: about him coming up in weight class. Like every time

214
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:07,720
Speaker 3: he lands a shot on anyone, it just looks rough.

215
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,559
Speaker 3: And my favorite line about that, and I'm borrowing this

216
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,319
Speaker 3: from Rampage Jackson, but when he hits people, they stay hit.

217
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,040
Speaker 3: You know, they don't come back, They don't get back

218
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,640
Speaker 3: in the pocket asking for more. Every time I've seen

219
00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 3: him land to strike his opponent is like, WHOA, let's

220
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 3: not do that again.

221
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 4: I need to come up with another plan.

222
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 3: Part of my analysis on Silva by knockout is I

223
00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:29,440
Speaker 3: think Drew Dober kind of understands the assignment at this

224
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,560
Speaker 3: point in his career where he's not a guy who's

225
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:32,640
Speaker 3: there because he wins them all.

226
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 4: He's a guy who's there because he makes really fun fights.

227
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 4: And I kind of expect.

228
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 3: Him to trade with Gene Silva. He shouldn't, You're one

229
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,439
Speaker 3: hundred percent right. He just seems like the kind of

230
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:43,520
Speaker 3: guy that he's gonna dance when he hears some music,

231
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 3: So that helps with that. You can get Silva in

232
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,600
Speaker 3: round one or two. The split round prop. It's similar

233
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,600
Speaker 3: price to the knockout. I think it's a little bit worse.

234
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 3: I prefer knockout just because we haven't seen him submit

235
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 3: anyone harder to submit a bigger, stronger guy than it

236
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:02,000
Speaker 3: is to knock out a somewhat chinny opponent. And yeah,

237
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,440
Speaker 3: coming back on Drew Dover Live, I put live after

238
00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,840
Speaker 3: round one in the sheet. This one you kind of

239
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:08,360
Speaker 3: have to play it by year. I think we have

240
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:10,680
Speaker 3: to see how hard Silver is throw and see what

241
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 3: kind of game plan Dover has. Just be flexible on

242
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 3: this one. It's not like round one ends. I'm just

243
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,439
Speaker 3: gonna blindly click and take that live bet.

244
00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:19,680
Speaker 4: I kind of want to see how both guys are doing.

245
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 3: I absolutely hate betting in the middle of rounds live

246
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 3: because of the tape delay that we're going through.

247
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 4: This is one where I might make that exception.

248
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:29,840
Speaker 3: If it looks like Silver comes out real hard at

249
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,120
Speaker 3: the start of round two kind of dumps the tank,

250
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:35,199
Speaker 3: doesn't get it. That might be the ideal spot for Dober,

251
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 3: especially if he lands some of those shots, but then

252
00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 3: Dober gets to take down or Dober shoves him up

253
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 3: against the fence.

254
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:41,840
Speaker 4: Being the bigger, stronger guys you alluded to.

255
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, it might not be right after round one. In fact,

256
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,439
Speaker 2: the way Silver approached the Jordane fight, he kind of

257
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,360
Speaker 2: stalked him and didn't throw anything for like the first

258
00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 2: three minutes, and then towards the end round one he

259
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,640
Speaker 2: started picking up the pace, clearly had him hurt at

260
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:54,679
Speaker 2: the end of round one, and then finished him early

261
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:58,160
Speaker 2: in round two. So he seemed to build to actually

262
00:11:58,200 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 2: like starting to fight at the end of round one.

263
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 2: And if he does the same against Dover, yeah, you

264
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 2: want to wait till middle of round two maybe to

265
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,679
Speaker 2: fire a live bet, because he might be starting to

266
00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:08,680
Speaker 2: pour it on end of round one, early round two,

267
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,080
Speaker 2: and that might be the window where Dover needs to survive.

268
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,400
Speaker 2: It might not be from the opening bell, it might

269
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:16,679
Speaker 2: be between rounds, getting back off the stool and you know,

270
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 2: seeing if he's still wobble there what have you. Yeah,

271
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 2: so really fun fight should be fire to tonight on paper.

272
00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,719
Speaker 2: Would love to see these two slug it out and

273
00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,599
Speaker 2: definitely keep an eye on Silver's body language from a

274
00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 2: live betting perspective. Dover just having the elevation advantage, but

275
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 2: Silva not cutting weight. I think sort of neutralizes that

276
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 2: to a degree. Favorite underdog on the card, I'm gonna

277
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,760
Speaker 2: go with the comin event, Muslim Salakov, the King of

278
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:46,200
Speaker 2: Kong Fu against Santiago Ponzinnabio Old Man Fight thirty seven

279
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 2: and forty, respectively. Neither guy has particularly good cardio. Salakov

280
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 2: to me, though, just the better mover. He's going to

281
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,679
Speaker 2: be the one, you know, dancing around the cage, utilizing footwork,

282
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:59,839
Speaker 2: utilizing kicks. Ponzin Abo doesn't really throw kicks. He likes

283
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 2: to and he just likes to stand in the center

284
00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 2: of the cage. He doesn't really utilize good footwork anymore.

285
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,200
Speaker 2: He just likes to be in a phone boot, you know,

286
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:09,800
Speaker 2: boxing in the pocket hope accept leg kicks and then

287
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,480
Speaker 2: punch you back in the face. But Salakov, I think,

288
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 2: is just going to take advantage of the larger octagon here.

289
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,520
Speaker 2: He's seemingly struggled when he's been put in the apex.

290
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 2: He struggled against bigger power punchers, you know, guys who

291
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:23,440
Speaker 2: can knock you out with one punch. That's not Ponzanavio,

292
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 2: you know so much. Panzanevio is more of an nutritional

293
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,320
Speaker 2: finisher for me at this stage of his career, you know,

294
00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,679
Speaker 2: earlier in your squer Yes, absolutely, I think I think

295
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,079
Speaker 2: he had more one punch power, but now at thirty seven,

296
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 2: I think he's more of an nutritional finisher. He's also

297
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:39,280
Speaker 2: I believe the guy coming off of a knockout loss.

298
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:43,520
Speaker 2: Isn't that correct? I guess they both are. Yeah, so

299
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 2: it's just the old man fight. You know. Normally Salakov,

300
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 2: like I have concerns about his cardio when he's facing

301
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 2: younger opponents, It's really not the case here. Maybe ponzanebio live,

302
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:58,320
Speaker 2: but not not like a major cardio discrepancy where I'm like, oh,

303
00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:00,720
Speaker 2: you have to hedge out live after. So he has

304
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,360
Speaker 2: just straight up Salakov plus one fifty five, no prop

305
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:07,800
Speaker 2: no live angle, just taking the underdog in what could

306
00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 2: be a very sloppy comin event down the stretch. Billy,

307
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 2: Any thoughts on the Comaine and any underdogs they caught

308
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 2: your eye?

309
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:17,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm mostly with you.

310
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 3: I think if I was, and I should phrase that differently,

311
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 3: I think I actually like Salakov live as well. My

312
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 3: only thought here is he's got some of those Sanda

313
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 3: Wushue takedowns where he kind of just trips you over

314
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 3: gets a little inside action. Those don't use the same

315
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,560
Speaker 3: kind of energy that you know. Cody Brundage is gonna

316
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 3: use exploding for a big double leg takedown. If he

317
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 3: can land one or two of those on Ponzinabio, it's

318
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 3: gonna shift that Cardio balance pretty heavily, just making ponsan

319
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:46,040
Speaker 3: Abio get up, making these as you said, old men

320
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 3: have to work their way back to their feet. Whoever

321
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 3: has to work from the bottom there. I feel like

322
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 3: they've got one of those in them for this fight.

323
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,360
Speaker 3: And then I'm also betting under two and a half

324
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 3: rounds at minus one twenty. Again, it's seventy eight years

325
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 3: of combined age, both coming out off knockout losses. One

326
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:04,480
Speaker 3: of the heavier weight class fights we're seeing on the card.

327
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,120
Speaker 3: It feels like everything's got a point in the same

328
00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 3: direction there. But as far as underdogs, I've gone back

329
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 3: and forth on a couple. I like the mom Black

330
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:16,560
Speaker 3: share here against Montel Jackson. Jackson is very heavily dependent

331
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:18,040
Speaker 3: on being explosive.

332
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 4: And knocking you out early.

333
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:21,560
Speaker 3: It's a one hundred and thirty five pound fight, so

334
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 3: Cardio might not be the big issue here, but he

335
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 3: gets taken down a lot. Black Cheer loves to grapple.

336
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 3: He's the one, like super tall, skinny guy that relies

337
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,400
Speaker 3: very heavily on his grappling, which is interesting. He hit

338
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 3: that twister finished a couple of fights ago. It's easy

339
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 3: to write that off as a fluke. He's looked for

340
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:40,640
Speaker 3: that in every single one of his UFC fights. At

341
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 3: some point he has gotten mostly behind the guy and

342
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 3: tried to set up a twister.

343
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 2: I don't know if he does that is going for

344
00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:49,840
Speaker 2: the twister every time he gets the back. It's just

345
00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 2: like his preferred submission.

346
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:53,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it makes a lot of sense given their

347
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 3: their builds and the way they can attack, because you

348
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:57,520
Speaker 3: don't need to fight for that second hook.

349
00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 4: If you just have the one, just stretch it out,

350
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 4: see if it's there.

351
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,760
Speaker 3: You're gonna make fifty grand if you land it almost guaranteed,

352
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 3: and so like, at least give it a shot. It

353
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:09,640
Speaker 3: doesn't hurt anything. But Yeah, I like the grappling upside

354
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,120
Speaker 3: here from Black Cheer. It's going to be a sweaty

355
00:16:12,760 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 3: to three minutes because Montel Jackson has big power. But

356
00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 3: one stat I noticed when I was looking into this fight.

357
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 3: Anytime Jackson has been taking down more than once in

358
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 3: a fight he's lost, and Black Cheer is averaging about

359
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 3: two and a half per fifteen minutes, and obviously you'd

360
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:28,400
Speaker 3: expect Black Cheer to go for more in this kind

361
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 3: of matchup than he did against guys where he might

362
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 3: have a striking edge. So just a guy who's vulnerable

363
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 3: against grapplers fighting what I would say is still up

364
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 3: and coming, very high level grappler, and we're getting plus

365
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:40,880
Speaker 3: some money on the grappler side. I would prefer this

366
00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 3: fight not to be at elevation to make those bets,

367
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 3: but it's still plus one twenty four, so I'll still

368
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:46,120
Speaker 3: take it.

369
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe even I didn't consider it initially, but a

370
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 2: Jackson wied bet if Black Cheer is having trouble getting

371
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:53,920
Speaker 2: those takedowns or you know, if he's getting them, but

372
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 2: it looks like he's gassing a little bit, because I

373
00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 2: have concerns about Black Cher's cardio at elevation in a

374
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 2: fifteen minute fight, and if Jackson is defending the wrestling,

375
00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:04,639
Speaker 2: I might look to live at him after round one

376
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:05,639
Speaker 2: if you get a better price.

377
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 3: I could see a live betting angle on both guys, right,

378
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,200
Speaker 3: because if Jackson is swinging real hard and doesn't get

379
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:13,280
Speaker 3: the knockdown, it's probably black Share. If black Cheer shoots

380
00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:15,159
Speaker 3: three or four takedowns and only gets one of them,

381
00:17:15,240 --> 00:17:17,760
Speaker 3: or doesn't get either of them, that's also a concern.

382
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:18,760
Speaker 4: To be fair to.

383
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 3: Black Share, Like he tired out a little bit in

384
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 3: this fight against Mario Bautista that he took on one

385
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 3: week notice after twistering a guy and getting a fifty

386
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 3: grand bonus the week before. So the only time we've

387
00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 3: seen him really struggle cardio wise, there was at least an.

388
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:36,440
Speaker 4: Excuse built in there that's somewhat logical.

389
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,399
Speaker 3: So I don't know, I could see cardio issues coming

390
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:41,679
Speaker 3: from both guys, depending on their game plan and how

391
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:43,800
Speaker 3: it works for him. So don't go in there like

392
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:46,920
Speaker 3: I'm going to blindly live bet fighter acts after round one.

393
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:47,960
Speaker 4: You gotta watch this one.

394
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, there was this law fight too. You got handad

395
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 2: in the third round. You look pretty bad there. I

396
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 2: don't know. I'm so like the one thing that gives

397
00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:00,600
Speaker 2: me cautious about I'm pretty like you get your point.

398
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,880
Speaker 2: I'm definitely leaning more towards live betting Jackson. The thing

399
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 2: that concerns me Jackson is he's huge. He probably cuts

400
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,480
Speaker 2: a ton of weight to make the division. He's huge

401
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 2: hands too, And that's like the concern for Black Chears,

402
00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:18,400
Speaker 2: Like it seems like when guys put their hands around Jackson,

403
00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,159
Speaker 2: his grip strength is insane and he just like peels

404
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,680
Speaker 2: your hands off of you, you know, off of them.

405
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:26,440
Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know how effective black cheers

406
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 2: grappling is going to be against the guy with that

407
00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 2: grip shrink. You really don't know until you see it

408
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 2: play out. You know, he was fighting JP Byes, who

409
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:36,920
Speaker 2: was a flyweight, and he kept knocking JP bys down

410
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,639
Speaker 2: every time he jabbed him. But anytime buys put his

411
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,680
Speaker 2: hands around Jackson, he was taking him down. So he's

412
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,399
Speaker 2: definitely been taken down by smaller guys who are less strong.

413
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:47,600
Speaker 2: But at the same time, like once he gets taken down,

414
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:49,120
Speaker 2: he seems to be able to break the grip strength

415
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:52,479
Speaker 2: pretty easily. Yeah, it's an interesting fight for Sean. I'm

416
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:54,720
Speaker 2: probably leaning towards live betting Jackson, but as you said,

417
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:56,920
Speaker 2: like if he goes for a finishing round one gases

418
00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,600
Speaker 2: or you know, doesn't get it and Black She's still

419
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 2: there yet I certainly considered the other side, maybe an

420
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:03,240
Speaker 2: under in this fight.

421
00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:05,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean both guys have stopped upside.

422
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 3: I would just say real quick though, on the majority

423
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 3: draw against the lall Black Cheer took that one on

424
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:11,480
Speaker 3: like a weak notice, as the law was supposed to

425
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 3: fight somebody else and it was Black Cheer's UFC debut.

426
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:18,920
Speaker 3: I'm gonna, like I said, there's there's been moments of concern,

427
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,240
Speaker 3: but you can kind of see how it would have happened,

428
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,919
Speaker 3: and he's looked better under normal circumstances. I don't know

429
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,240
Speaker 3: what that adds up to, but it's not me having

430
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 3: major concern. But yeah, under or inside the distance or

431
00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,359
Speaker 3: that kind of stuff makes a ton of sense here.

432
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,760
Speaker 3: It's pretty binary how either guy is gonna get it done.

433
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,320
Speaker 4: You think one of them is gonna happen, probably, but yeah.

434
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,280
Speaker 2: It seems it seems pretty binary. Getting costs money at

435
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:45,919
Speaker 2: elevation between two guys who are fairly aggressive, both.

436
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:48,480
Speaker 3: Big for the division. Jack Yeah, I mean you mentioned

437
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:50,479
Speaker 3: Jackson being big for the division. Black Cheer is like

438
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 3: the fifth tallest bantam weight or something, and he's the

439
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:53,960
Speaker 3: shorter guy in this fight.

440
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 4: I made that up.

441
00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:56,680
Speaker 3: That was a stat from like two fights ago for

442
00:19:56,720 --> 00:19:59,920
Speaker 3: Black cheer, it's probably changed, but they're both very very

443
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:00,920
Speaker 3: for one thirty five.

444
00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, interesting fight, probably the second best part of the

445
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:07,480
Speaker 2: card for me in terms of like action and excitement.

Speaker 2: already mentioned one prop to Salakov or I guess it's

459
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:43,560
Speaker 2: an under. It's a total the Salakov and Ponzanaviio under. Billy.

460
00:20:43,840 --> 00:20:45,879
Speaker 2: What other props you taken a look at for the start?

461
00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like the Josh Van Charles Johnson fight, which

462
00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 3: I would argue is probably my second favorite fight on

463
00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 3: the car just because you've got twenty two year old

464
00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 3: Josh Van, looking better and better every fight, picked up

465
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 3: his first UFC knockout last time against Charles Johnson, who

466
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 3: has fought nine times in the last two years.

467
00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:08,120
Speaker 4: Not a great record in his pro career or UFC career.

468
00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:09,880
Speaker 3: He's fifteen and six, is a pro four and four

469
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,359
Speaker 3: in the UFC, never been finished. He was like a

470
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:15,639
Speaker 3: D one distance runner. Was never in the Olympics, but

471
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 3: he has the Olympic tattoo. I don't understand how you

472
00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 3: do that. I thought that wasn't allowed. But you know,

473
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,679
Speaker 3: he makes some weird personal style choices in general, if

474
00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:26,119
Speaker 3: anyone's seen his haircuts. So we'll let that one go.

475
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:29,200
Speaker 3: I like Josh fann by knockout at plus four hundred here.

476
00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,119
Speaker 3: You know, we talk about it with older fighters. We

477
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 3: say the power is the last thing to go. It's

478
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 3: also the last thing to show up. I mean, I'm

479
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 3: sure most of our listeners here on the other side

480
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,640
Speaker 3: of twenty two like we are. You know, you get

481
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,960
Speaker 3: that man strength into your early and mid twenties. You

482
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 3: fill out your body a little bit more. And Josh

483
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,480
Speaker 3: Van's a guy who lands over nine significant strikes per minute.

484
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 3: You put a little extra power. Beyond that, I think

485
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:52,760
Speaker 3: he can be the first guy to finish Charles Johnson.

486
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 3: Obviously Ko is more likely here, but he's got a

487
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 3: couple of submission wins on the regionals. It wouldn't surprise

488
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:01,920
Speaker 3: me to see a club and sub And I hate

489
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,240
Speaker 3: getting greedy and chasing plus five hundred and set a

490
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 3: plus four hundred and then losing the bet because the

491
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 3: other thing happened. So I like Van inside the distance

492
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,560
Speaker 3: at plus four hundred. It's another one Sean, you're on

493
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 3: the other side of this live. But I think if

494
00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:17,360
Speaker 3: Charles Johnson survives the first round round and a half,

495
00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 3: he's a good live bet. His last two wins he

496
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,359
Speaker 3: lost the first round and then won the second and third.

497
00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:25,400
Speaker 3: That's Charles Johnson's game plan. It's what he's trying to do.

498
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 3: He gives away the first round. He's gonna put a

499
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 3: pace on you late. Van is a much better fighter

500
00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 3: than the guys he's fought before, which is why I

501
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:33,159
Speaker 3: see where you're coming from.

502
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:34,760
Speaker 4: I am not for sure.

503
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 3: Coming back on Charles Johnson, but there's some scenarios where

504
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 3: Van sells out hard.

505
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,720
Speaker 4: Then I'm gonna come back in on Johnson Live.

506
00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, so the guys Johnson beat Asik Maxim, Jake Havley,

507
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 2: they were trying to wrestle him and they gassed out.

508
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:50,080
Speaker 2: You know, these are guys who Johnson probably had the

509
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 2: striking advantage against. Have they just fought a striking match

510
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:54,760
Speaker 2: for fifteen minutes. If he fights a striking match for

511
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:56,920
Speaker 2: fifteen minutes against Josh Van, I think he gets torn up.

512
00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:00,400
Speaker 2: I think Johnson actually needs to maybe grapple in this fight.

513
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:03,359
Speaker 2: Van has shown a little bit of susceptible takedown defense.

514
00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 2: You can control him for a little bit on the ground,

515
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 2: and I think Johnson should be the one mixing it

516
00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:10,639
Speaker 2: up a little bit here, because, yeah, I think his

517
00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:14,200
Speaker 2: comeback wins been a result of opponents trying to grapple him,

518
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:16,720
Speaker 2: tiring out, and then going away a little bit. Where

519
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 2: Johnson had the striking edge, I don't see that happening

520
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,560
Speaker 2: in this fight. I think Van's cardio is equal, if

521
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:25,040
Speaker 2: not better. I think they both built in rounds two

522
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 2: in round three, it's it's almost like a Stylistically, it's

523
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:30,280
Speaker 2: a bit of a mirror fight because they both tend

524
00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:33,680
Speaker 2: to take round one off, you know, resist the opponent,

525
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,040
Speaker 2: make sure they're still around and then they build the

526
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:38,199
Speaker 2: longer their fight goes. So it was a lean for

527
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 2: me in terms of Van as a live play, just

528
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:44,440
Speaker 2: because of Johnson's recent opponents and how he won those fights,

529
00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,000
Speaker 2: you know, and expecting that maybe the live market is

530
00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:49,760
Speaker 2: going to give him a little bit too much respect

531
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,080
Speaker 2: after round one. But I prefer Van as the side.

532
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 2: I like your look on the KO prop. You know,

533
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 2: I think almost everybody betting this would probably be betting

534
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,880
Speaker 2: Van by decision if they're playing a prop. Just because

535
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:05,919
Speaker 2: Johnson's so durable, this one seems likely to go to

536
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:09,919
Speaker 2: a decision. But yeah, fun fight between Charles Johnson and

537
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,199
Speaker 2: Josh Fann. I have a bunch of roundrops.

538
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:14,960
Speaker 4: Everyone's durable until they're not.

539
00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:18,360
Speaker 3: That's people always say, Like everyone thought, you know, Drew

540
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:19,560
Speaker 3: Dober is not gonna get knocked out.

541
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:20,160
Speaker 4: Us included.

542
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:23,360
Speaker 3: We had a bad call against Matt Fromola. But everyone's

543
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:25,879
Speaker 3: Chim's great until it isn't. In a twenty two to

544
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:28,119
Speaker 3: twenty three year old kid with increasing power, who's going

545
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 3: to hit you nine times for a minute, might be

546
00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,040
Speaker 3: when you find out it's not there anymore, hit you

547
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:32,760
Speaker 3: a lot again.

548
00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:34,919
Speaker 4: In this plus four hundred, I'm not hitching a lot to.

549
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 2: Body at elevation too. That's that's the key He's He's

550
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:40,720
Speaker 2: gonna work like Van really mixes it up well. His

551
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:43,639
Speaker 2: offensive striking is really dynamic. I mean, he's already one

552
00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:47,120
Speaker 2: of the better offensive strikers at Flyway. So that's kind

553
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 2: of why I think Johnson might need some grappling success

554
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,480
Speaker 2: to break up the pressure to win the fight. Some

555
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:55,200
Speaker 2: round props. I'm targeting Christian Rodriguez round one to plus

556
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:58,320
Speaker 2: four forty. Juliana Rossa tends to get knocked out like

557
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,879
Speaker 2: in one of the first exchanges, or he goes the

558
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:02,879
Speaker 2: full fifteen minutes. I think he's been knocked out in

559
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 2: round three once. But other than that, like he gets

560
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,159
Speaker 2: clipped early, he wobbles. You either finish him or the

561
00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,360
Speaker 2: fight keeps going. And if this fight extends, I think

562
00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:13,080
Speaker 2: a Rosa is gonna be a problem for Sea Rod

563
00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,640
Speaker 2: just because similar similar to just what I said with Johnson,

564
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 2: Sea Rod has just sort of been resisting grapplers, letting

565
00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 2: them tire out, and then taking over a round two

566
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:23,720
Speaker 2: and round three. Now, I think he's actually a very

567
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:26,560
Speaker 2: dynamic striker. We haven't seen him be able to get

568
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:29,679
Speaker 2: the type of matchups to prove how dynamic he is

569
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,280
Speaker 2: on the feet. Uh, and when he's not facing a

570
00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 2: wrestler and he can open up a little bit more

571
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 2: with the striking. I think you're really going to see it,

572
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,040
Speaker 2: you know, Shine that said Erosa can grapple. He's just

573
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:41,200
Speaker 2: not the best wrestlers.

574
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 4: I don't.

575
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:44,240
Speaker 2: I don't see him getting Sea Rods to the ground

576
00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:49,679
Speaker 2: like Golbarian dat, even like Cameron Samon did, or it

577
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 2: was a camera Sam that we fought. I know, I

578
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:52,400
Speaker 2: know he fought Rosas Junior.

579
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:58,280
Speaker 4: I don't know if Ye took Sam down three times.

580
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:02,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, Josh Wade around one.

581
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,520
Speaker 3: JSP took him down, but that was like super short notice.

582
00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:08,080
Speaker 3: MJSP takes everyone down, Like that's one of those that

583
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:09,320
Speaker 3: you go, yeah, no, one doesn't count.

584
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,639
Speaker 2: Rosa probably is the best submission grappling of all those guys,

585
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:15,879
Speaker 2: but the worst wrestling among that group too, So you know,

586
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 2: if the fight hits the ground or Rosa dangerous, but

587
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 2: Sea rod is so like not only durable, but good

588
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 2: at surviving submission attempts, good at just staying safe eventually

589
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 2: getting fights back to the feet. Now, Arosa is not

590
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:28,560
Speaker 2: going to tire out so you know, from a live

591
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:31,359
Speaker 2: betting perspective, I don't really love Sea Rod either. I

592
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:33,520
Speaker 2: think like we're Sea Rod has been the one coming

593
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:35,520
Speaker 2: on late against guys who tried to wrestle him, didn't

594
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:38,120
Speaker 2: have a success or did have success but eventually tired out.

595
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:42,080
Speaker 2: If Arosa survives the early round, he's just in your

596
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:44,720
Speaker 2: face and he's gonna make this close and competitive. I

597
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:47,720
Speaker 2: do think i'm Sea Rod absolute hardware advantage. You know,

598
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:50,320
Speaker 2: he may clip him in rounds two, rounds three, but yeah,

599
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 2: if this gets out of round one, I think it's

600
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:53,639
Speaker 2: close to competitive. I think it may go the distance.

601
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 2: So see Rod round one plus four to forty and

602
00:26:56,080 --> 00:27:00,639
Speaker 2: then after that just watch and enjoy three different fights.

603
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:03,440
Speaker 2: Round two, round three props Angelusa Round two, round three

604
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:05,800
Speaker 2: plus twenty four hundred plus twenty six out of respectively.

605
00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:09,320
Speaker 2: His opponent bon Fieme, the Bonfiet brothers. Neither of them

606
00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:12,880
Speaker 2: have good cardio. This one particularly tired out last time

607
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:16,040
Speaker 2: in Brazil, in his home country, and now he's going

608
00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:18,679
Speaker 2: up to elevation. Loose is a bit of a quitter.

609
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:21,200
Speaker 2: You know, I don't really like either of these fighters,

610
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,399
Speaker 2: but Bonfim given the cardio concerns he showed at sea level.

611
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:28,280
Speaker 2: I have major concerns about him fighting at elevation. So

612
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,239
Speaker 2: LUSA live bett after round one and then his round two,

613
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:35,119
Speaker 2: round three props. Cody Brundage bet his over one and

614
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:37,960
Speaker 2: a half against Bo Nickel. That was a great bet.

615
00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:41,920
Speaker 2: But Cody Brundage I think is very likely to get

616
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 2: finished here by Abdul Razak al Hassan. The big difference

617
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 2: in what concerns me is the age. Alhasen is much older,

618
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:50,960
Speaker 2: much likelier to be falling off of a cliff. I

619
00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:54,520
Speaker 2: just don't think brudg is a good fighter. He's got

620
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:56,720
Speaker 2: into the UFC because his opponent broke his arm in

621
00:27:56,760 --> 00:28:00,280
Speaker 2: Contender series he won via slam ko in the UNFC.

622
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:02,520
Speaker 2: Like this, this guy in Billy's luck ratings is like

623
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,920
Speaker 2: the quick deessential, Like this guy keeps getting by and

624
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:08,120
Speaker 2: I guess this is supposed to be the favor fight

625
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,640
Speaker 2: that he gets for taking the Boat Nickel fight too brutal.

626
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:13,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that's the easiest fight they're going to

627
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:15,080
Speaker 3: give him at middle late, right.

628
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,639
Speaker 2: I guess it is. But yeah, al Haassen just much

629
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,800
Speaker 2: better hardware. I think he's actually improved too. He went

630
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:25,160
Speaker 2: out to Colorado three fights back, and even though he's

631
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:28,040
Speaker 2: in his late thirties, he's showing like improved cardio, actually

632
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,120
Speaker 2: sustaining it into the second and third round of his fight.

633
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,120
Speaker 2: So I think Ohasson actually has a clear cardio advantage here.

634
00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:36,720
Speaker 2: You know, again, assuming like the age differential is not

635
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:38,320
Speaker 2: going to cause him to fall off of a cliff,

636
00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 2: which is why I'm not betting his money line at

637
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:42,840
Speaker 2: minus one seventy. But we had round two plus six hundred,

638
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 2: Round three for Alhassen at plus twelve hundred, big cardio

639
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:50,760
Speaker 2: advantage over Cody Brudge Josh Fremd the final plus seven

640
00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:54,680
Speaker 2: hundred and plus one thousand, respectively against Andrea Petrowski. Friend

641
00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 2: now trains in Colorado. He used to train, I believe

642
00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:02,720
Speaker 2: in Pennsylvania like Patrol he does. Yeah, he's now training

643
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:05,400
Speaker 2: at Factory X, and we tie in Colorado. He should

644
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:07,840
Speaker 2: have the better gas tank here. Petrowsky should be the

645
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:10,160
Speaker 2: better athlete, the stronger athlete. In round one, I think

646
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:13,400
Speaker 2: he can absolutely choke Fremed doubt. But after round one

647
00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 2: Petrosky's effectiveness falls off of a cliff. I know he

648
00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:18,280
Speaker 2: has that pair of round three finishes on his record,

649
00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:20,479
Speaker 2: he looked like he was gassing in those fights badly.

650
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 2: His opponents were just gassing worse. I think Fremd is

651
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:25,880
Speaker 2: going to have a big cardy advantage down the stretch

652
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 2: of this fight, So fremed live and then rounds two

653
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,680
Speaker 2: and rounds three. Sorry to go against your live bet billy,

654
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:34,520
Speaker 2: which I'll go ahead and tease out that we're gonna

655
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:36,280
Speaker 2: jump to in a moment, But yeah, I think this

656
00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:38,200
Speaker 2: is a good card for live betting. I think this

657
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,360
Speaker 2: is a card for late round props and just you know,

658
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:43,160
Speaker 2: my best bet on this card I'm just gonna get

659
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:45,120
Speaker 2: to it is to live bet this card. Just be

660
00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:47,800
Speaker 2: around at seven pm to start live betting this card

661
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 2: because there's at least six fights, maybe seven fights out

662
00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:53,080
Speaker 2: of the twelve that I think are good for live

663
00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:55,760
Speaker 2: betting purposes. As I mentioned at Dual rozak Al Hasan

664
00:29:56,920 --> 00:30:01,760
Speaker 2: drew dover Josh Fremd. Angelosa want to the prelim fight

665
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:04,560
Speaker 2: between Maria Goppova and Juana Santos as well. Santos a

666
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:08,360
Speaker 2: minus four on her favorite. Goppova lost as a minus

667
00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 2: fifteen hundred favorite against Shannon Dobson. I think she's one

668
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:13,440
Speaker 2: of the biggest favorites in the UFC history to lose.

669
00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:16,280
Speaker 2: That was one of the first cards at the Apex,

670
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 2: I believe too, when we were in the midst of

671
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,720
Speaker 2: the pandemic, so a lot of people saw that upset happen.

672
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:26,560
Speaker 2: But yeah, Santos should submit her probably and would imagine

673
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:28,560
Speaker 2: if a Goppova is any success in round one, you

674
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 2: actually may get a decent price on Santos to come

675
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 2: back live. And then finally, as I mentioned, Josh Fan

676
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:38,240
Speaker 2: potentially in that fight, and also the black Sheer and

677
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:41,400
Speaker 2: Johnson fight. So lots of live betting angles on this

678
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:45,120
Speaker 2: card through UC Denver fighting up at elevation. Don't have

679
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 2: heavyweights or light heavyweights, but a couple of middleweight fights.

680
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:50,040
Speaker 2: Got a bunch of cardio dynamics that I think lend

681
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:52,240
Speaker 2: itself to good live betting spots are at least good

682
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:55,920
Speaker 2: late prop spots. Billy, why don't we finish off having

683
00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,680
Speaker 2: a little discussion about this, Adria Petrowski Josh Frump fight.

684
00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:02,360
Speaker 2: Absolutely agree with you Andrei Petrowski the pre fight side,

685
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 2: But why do you think he has a better chance

686
00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:05,280
Speaker 2: of actually winning the fight than I do?

687
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:08,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just a it's an almost tailor made match

688
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:11,960
Speaker 3: up for Petrowski against a tall, skinny guy and Josh Fremt,

689
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:15,360
Speaker 3: who can't grapple. Petrowski is one of the better pure grapplers,

690
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:18,640
Speaker 3: arguably in the UFC, certainly in the middleweight division. He

691
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:21,040
Speaker 3: does pro grappling events like two or three, like you know,

692
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:22,920
Speaker 3: at least one or two between all of his fights.

693
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:26,840
Speaker 3: He's really out here pushing that hard. Also a bigger, stronger,

694
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 3: more explosive guy. With that said, I'm totally with you

695
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 3: on the live bet. On the other side, also part

696
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 3: of it, I got Petrowski at plus money earlier in

697
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:37,320
Speaker 3: the week. That was in my luck ratings. I'm sorry,

698
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,280
Speaker 3: I'm kind of shotgutting here, but last point on that.

699
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:41,880
Speaker 3: Petrowski was five to zero in the UFC. He took

700
00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 3: a super short notice fight against Michelle Paieda and lost

701
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:46,960
Speaker 3: Peeda's on a tear at one eighty five.

702
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:48,160
Speaker 4: There's no shame in that.

703
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 3: And then he was winning the fight against Jacob Malcoun

704
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:54,160
Speaker 3: before he shot a really hard double leg, banged his

705
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:57,720
Speaker 3: head on Malcolm's hip and knocked himself out. That's one

706
00:31:57,720 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 3: of those where on the one hand, it's very concerning

707
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:03,160
Speaker 3: that that happened, but it's probably more of a fluke

708
00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 3: than it is like his chin so bad he knocked

709
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:07,520
Speaker 3: himself out. No, it was just a weird angle, he

710
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 3: got a stinger. Weird stuff happened. Like, that's my read

711
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:13,040
Speaker 3: on that one. I am with you on the live side.

712
00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:15,400
Speaker 3: That The only live spot I'm going to push back

713
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,520
Speaker 3: on is the Judo thunder verse.

714
00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:18,440
Speaker 4: Cody Brundage.

715
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 3: Al Hassan is zero to six in fights that have

716
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 3: gone past five and a half minutes in his career.

717
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:25,360
Speaker 3: He is never won a fight that made it more

718
00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:28,040
Speaker 3: than thirty seconds into the second round. Brundage's not a

719
00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:30,880
Speaker 3: great cardio guy either, trains in Denver, can wrestle a

720
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 3: little bit. I'm not saying I'm betting Cody live. I'm

721
00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 3: saying that's another one where I think you watch a

722
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:39,800
Speaker 3: little bit more if Cody fails three four takedowns, one

723
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,720
Speaker 3: hundred percent with you on al Hassan. If Cody's being

724
00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:45,320
Speaker 3: a little bit more patient in the first round, I

725
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,479
Speaker 3: think that makes him the side. So yeah, those are

726
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,160
Speaker 3: the two where I in some ways disagree with you.

727
00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 3: Not that I'm pushing back too hard on either, but yeah,

728
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:55,840
Speaker 3: I think it's Petrowski pre fight frammed live in the

729
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:59,080
Speaker 3: Battle of Pennsylvania. And then I think Cody's a little

730
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:01,200
Speaker 3: bit underrated as a live choice depending on how the

731
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:01,920
Speaker 3: first round goes.

732
00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:04,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, that makes sense. I mean Brunders is a five

733
00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:08,240
Speaker 2: round win from earlier in his career on the regional scene.

734
00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:12,160
Speaker 2: Like he's he's won decisions, he's been five rounds. I

735
00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 2: just I see significant improvements from Alhason since he's moved

736
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:18,360
Speaker 2: to Colorado. And I just don't think Broudage is UFC level,

737
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:21,360
Speaker 2: you know. It's I respect anybody who makes this level.

738
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:23,520
Speaker 2: I am certainly not UFC caliber, you know. And I

739
00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:25,880
Speaker 2: don't mean as an insult. I just feel like he's

740
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:28,080
Speaker 2: a cup below these other fighters. And I feel like

741
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:30,560
Speaker 2: if you put him up against a lot of the

742
00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:32,360
Speaker 2: guys that Al has in his face, I think he

743
00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:35,640
Speaker 2: meets a similar, if not worse fate. It's just kind

744
00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:39,360
Speaker 2: of comparing class against class. You know. Al Hasson was

745
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:41,920
Speaker 2: like putting it on Hallkeey Buckley in round three. That

746
00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:44,960
Speaker 2: was yes, I know, he lost the fight. He looked

747
00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:47,080
Speaker 2: really good in the third round of that fight. It

748
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:49,280
Speaker 2: was like shocking to see the improved Cardio, and I

749
00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:51,280
Speaker 2: think that was the first fight when he had moved

750
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:55,400
Speaker 2: to Colorado. Then he'd be Claudia Orbero Kaotom got killed

751
00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:57,840
Speaker 2: or not kaoed by Joe Piper, but I think knocked

752
00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:01,400
Speaker 2: down and then submitted by Joe Piper. So Brudage would

753
00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:04,240
Speaker 2: die immediately against Joe Piper probably right like would would

754
00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:06,840
Speaker 2: Brundage make it seven minutes with Joe Piper. I'm not

755
00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:10,040
Speaker 2: saying like, oh, you know this is the one for

756
00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:12,960
Speaker 2: one like transitive property thing, but like, I think Brundage

757
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:15,719
Speaker 2: dies on the first exchange against Joe Piper. And that's

758
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:18,440
Speaker 2: just me comparing the hardware against hardware. I think Alhassen

759
00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:22,240
Speaker 2: is just like better athlete, bigger, stronger, probably slightly more durable.

760
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:28,520
Speaker 2: But yeah, Brounage, like Top time Wrestling Cardio, it might

761
00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:31,160
Speaker 2: be there. I just think Ohasen has improved a little bit.

762
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 2: So I really don't want to spend this much time

763
00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:35,239
Speaker 2: talking about a thirty year old, thirty eight year old fighter,

764
00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:37,640
Speaker 2: whof he if he loses, he's probably gonna get cut.

765
00:34:37,680 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 2: But you know, I think it's worth just considering just

766
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:45,560
Speaker 2: before we sign off, Like a lot of times I

767
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:48,640
Speaker 2: have very formed opinions of what these guys are in

768
00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:52,719
Speaker 2: my head. You know, Alonzo Metifield, the dual razak alhasan

769
00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 2: like bet them in round one, live bet against them

770
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:59,279
Speaker 2: after round one. That's like almost always the way I've

771
00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:03,840
Speaker 2: always approached fights. I think it's interesting to watch your

772
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:07,120
Speaker 2: guy develop late in his career. You don't expect it.

773
00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:09,960
Speaker 2: You don't expect like guys to improve or change their

774
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,200
Speaker 2: style or improve their cardio late in their career. So

775
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,000
Speaker 2: just just keep an open mind, watch that recent tape

776
00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:18,880
Speaker 2: and look for improvements, because not only did he improve

777
00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:20,439
Speaker 2: the cardio on my mind, but there was a reason

778
00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 2: why it improved. He went to Colorado and he started

779
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:27,040
Speaker 2: training with New Camp at elevations, so particularly Team Elevation

780
00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:29,040
Speaker 2: in Colorado.

781
00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:30,680
Speaker 3: I mean he went up to one eight five in

782
00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,040
Speaker 3: that span too, which probably a part of it. Yeause

783
00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:35,600
Speaker 3: he was fighting welter before that. Not only was he

784
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:38,920
Speaker 3: fighting welterweight, he was badly missing weight at welterweight before that.

785
00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:42,080
Speaker 4: So like that kind of heavy cut, it does make sense.

786
00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:46,319
Speaker 3: And I'm with you on brundage not truly being UFC level,

787
00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:49,360
Speaker 3: but until like the last few years, we would have

788
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,800
Speaker 3: not thought ebuel Zacha Alisanma was the UFC level not

789
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,239
Speaker 3: I'm not saying because he's gotten better. I'm saying because

790
00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:57,399
Speaker 3: what we think of is UFC level has came down

791
00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:57,879
Speaker 3: a little bit.

792
00:35:58,120 --> 00:35:58,359
Speaker 2: It has.

793
00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:01,600
Speaker 3: It's a sloppy metalweight fight between two not great guys,

794
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:05,000
Speaker 3: kind of happy to take plus money pre fight on

795
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:08,960
Speaker 3: either one, I think, but live it's I'm not convinced

796
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,080
Speaker 3: one way or the other. Live, I think you need

797
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,400
Speaker 3: to watch it and see. You know, is all I'm

798
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:16,640
Speaker 3: settling out for a knockout? Is Cody Brundage messing up

799
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:18,680
Speaker 3: a bunch of takedowns. That's gonna be what the terms

800
00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:19,040
Speaker 3: it for me?

801
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:22,160
Speaker 2: Absolutely yeah, yeah. First round dynamics very similar, you know

802
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:24,319
Speaker 2: to the Jackson Black cheer fight. Like, watch the first

803
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:26,640
Speaker 2: round dynamics. I think you can there's an argument you

804
00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:28,960
Speaker 2: can go either way with a live bet, but I

805
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,239
Speaker 2: do have a side that I think is likelier to

806
00:36:31,680 --> 00:36:34,080
Speaker 2: the side that I will be live betting, and that'll

807
00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:36,200
Speaker 2: do it for us. For the USC betting preview on
