I know this fight won't happen next year but let's assume it did. Who set these odds. Did the line maker watch the first two fights? Nate wins first by submission and Conor barely wins the second by decision (where Conor went off as a meager -135 favorite).

And now in the third fight Conor is a 2.5-1 favorite? Huh? Makes no sense to me. What am I missing?

It'd be at 155. Completely different fight. Much easier for Conor to potentially KO Nate at 155 than 170. Nate would have to cut a lot of weight and Conor would fight at his natural weight class.

That was absolutely terrifying. I was dead wrong. Congrats, Scal. I'm man enough to admit being wrong. Hope you won a bunch.

Good hit Scal. I waited until last minute to hit the under and saved a little juice.

You and Scal are two of the few posters that actually make calculated plays and give a solid opinion of your angle. Everyone knows you aren't going to win them all. LOL.

Keep up the good work, both of you.

i dont watch this stuff,scalabrine,but to my uneducated eye it looked every bit that rousey didnt wanna be there and sumwhere in her subconscious knew that she needed a new career outside of fighting.....easy to say in hindsight but once again you picked it like a big booger hanging out of a nose......that tough face she was pulling during ring announcing didnt help her once it got punched hard.....goddamn,wat a brutal,sadistic,emasculating sport.

Like I said Rousey = dead meat. Joke fight. Lmao.

What I text my buddy after the fight.--->

Until thst stupid girl Rousey gets the clowns out of her camp telling her she can fight on the stand up she will continue to lose. Easiest money I ever made. +150 Lmao.

Took Cody VS Cruz also. Because I love boxers. +220.

Happy New Year

Ladies and Gentlemen,

The "Fading Clinical Depression" angle has brought home the bacon!

Papa, what can ya say. That was tragic. I bet on her to lose. But not like that. It does nothing for the division and doesn't even challenge Nunes for her next defense. I feel bad for Ronda. A year of training for 48 seconds of destruction. Good discussion. You argued your cap well and we got a lot of posters here interested in what they'd find quite foreign.

Bk NoFun Skanless appreciate it

Btw, if anyone wants to see UFC or any other fight download the PERISCOPE APP on your phone and search for UFC etc. All FREE. All legal. One of the great apps out there.
