Public money has been coming in all week on JM. I just dont see it. A real Pros vs. Joes spot here.
Also loving the under 4.5. Cant see JM taking this fight on a weeks notice, cutting 20lbs, flying across the world and fighting at midnight. Cant see it going the distance.

8 of Usman’s last 10 fights have gone the distance and the Covington fight was stopped with 50 seconds left. He’s going to try and wrestle for 5 rounds and doesn’t have a submission game. The only way that fight ends early is if masvidal ends it.

Usman will dominate this fight. Volkanovski v Holloway is the interesting fight to me.

I keep going back and forth on my picks the more I think about them. They’re all so close, the only one I’m confident in is PVZ getting beat.

Still cracks me up how quickly they moved on from Triple C.

I don’t think she wins but -1000 is absurd for that fight. I like the unders in the dos santos and Oezdemir fights. I have a hard time seeing a path to victory for Max after Volkanovski beat him at his own game last time.
Also Rose is -200 despite losing the last fight in which she went off at even money. Yeah she pretty much did what she wanted in the first round but never really hurt Andrade and she’s still susceptible to getting slammed on her head.

paige is pretty game, this chick has been calling her out repeatedly, and this is a contract fight for her. Wouldnt be surprised if she brings it.

Dana said PPV trending as big as Connor - Khabib.
Connor fights are all this one is comparable to.
Masvidal is the biggest reason for that.

There’s also no other sports to compete with right now. Going to get a ton of causal fans to buy the PPV.

That's definitely one thing. Usman-Masvidal is a much more enticing main event. Three good title bouts. Topped off with the whole Fight Island allure, and you've got one hell of a combo

Exactly, plus the allure of 3 title fights people that may not normally buy find value in that phrasing alone.

Can you order this on Dish or do you have to stream it? I’m at a spot that has shite internet but want to order the fights.
