I know Rogan said he's not traveling outside the country while this Covid-19 virus is around

Ironically, he's probably safer outside of the states than in it.

Looking forward.  how are people seeing Usman vs Masvidal?  i think Usman is a huge lock.  He's the Mayweather of the UFC.  Boring, but dominates rounds by grinding things out.

I agree. Today the public was all over Masvidal, every time they bet him down the Sharps came back over the top on Usman. That happened multiple times today.

Massvidal just has that likeability factor to him that people gravitate to but I think Usman's smart enough to not just stand there and try to trade with him. Once this goes to the ground he's in his safe haven

On the Ruski here, love Aldo but he shouldn't be fighting for a vacant title off of back to back losses.

[Penguin 1,158]

Aldo dazed big time at the end of the round

[EYLive 5,188]

Younger guy pouring it on.

[Penguin 1,158]

I think Yan pulled out the 3rd but it was very close. I have him up 29-28 but I couldn't argue 29-28 the other way

[Penguin 1,158]

Big end of the 4th for Yan

[Wingnut 3,607]

Aldo about to get finished

stop the fight

[Penguin 1,158]

Wow Yan busted Aldo up in the 5th, impressive

[Wingnut 3,607]

And there it is. Jesus, he was being hammered 

[Grigs Allmoon 1,067]

That should have been stopped much sooner.

 

[Penguin 1,158]

I think Aldo retires after this beat down. That's also 3 losses in a row and 5 in his last 7 fights

100%

[CGRdrJoe 3,764]

Aldo all heart but come on and step in ref

[Penguin 1,158]

Ref gave Aldo too much leeway due to his legacy, he was done a good minute or so before the stoppage

[Wingnut 3,607]

CCC needs to stop tweeting.

I have 3 legs in on a 5 fight parlay that pays $868 on a $100. Holloway is the only leg that scares me (Usman is the 5th), think I'm going to put $180 on the Volkan to hedge it.

That won't hedge it.

Masvidal is going to grind out a decision. Blow blow, grapple, escape, repeat.

(I am far from an expert. I am projecting with my heart and not my head. Do not wager based on my statements.)

[Wingnut 3,607]

Co-main...here we go!!!

if it's a grind Usman wins 100%.  Masvidal's only hope is a KO.  He won't win if it goes to decision

I know what you mean, but if Masvidal lands some good blows before they go into a hug-fest on the ground, I think he could win some rounds.

[Penguin 1,158]

Hedge'd it

I love Jorge but Usman's a beast. Also like that the Sharp's all over him in a big way and the public all over Masvidal

[Grigs Allmoon 1,067]

...and the public all over Masvidal

In bettor terms, that is a wise move.

[Wingnut 3,607]

Max looks good, that head kick was money

Edited July 12, 2020 by Wingnut

[Penguin 1,158]

Max looks good thru one but his hair 😛

[EYLive 5,188]

Max takes round 1 easy.

Max putting on a clinic

[Penguin 1,158]

Max looks great, total reversal of the first fight

Yep, with that knock down especially.

[Binky The Doormat 12,644]

rd 3 to Volk

[Wingnut 3,607]

Max up 3-1

Edited July 12, 2020 by Wingnut

[CGRdrJoe 3,764]

Judges could be watching the Hamilton on Disney plus, I have Max ahead going into the 5th

[Wingnut 3,607]

Volk is gonna go for broke

[Binky The Doormat 12,644]

seems too close at this point to give it to the challenger ...even though he's a former champ

 

[Binky The Doormat 12,644]

holloway better get it goin'

[Wingnut 3,607]

I think Max gets the belt back

[Penguin 1,158]

I gave Max one thru three and Volk the 4th & 5th but it ended a lot closer than it started. The 3rd round scoring will be key

This was the reverse of the first fight, so judges could be anywhere with this

[dickey moe 3,886]

Coulda went either way.

[Wingnut 3,607]

Wow! Volk gets it

 

Main event time...excuse me whilst I hit the bong...

[Penguin 1,158]

Don't agree with the decision but the hedge washed me out for the night

[Wingnut 3,607]

I thiught Max did enough, but Volk came on the last 2 rounds...I didnt see Max losing 2 in a row.

[EYLive 5,188]

Meh, he's such a boring champion though. 

[Jayded 639]

Bad decision, but knew the refs had to assert one at some point tonight. Here’s hoping the next one isn’t on the judges.

Guessing the Main starts around 12:30-12:45 as there are two 5 round fights prior to it

Way off on this as all three preceding fights went the distance. Probably 1:00-1:05 main start now

[CGRdrJoe 3,764]

So much for no doubt, max won that imo
