McGregor/Alvarez pick

I was born in Ireland (where I now live), but grew up in Philadelphia so I'm incredibly torn on this but playe on:

McGregor to win in rd 1 or 2 @8/5

This is a decent price offered by a local book. Alternatively you could bet separately on 1 and 2 to get a similar return.

Watched Alvarez's fight vs RDA and he basically got lucky caught RDA and then swung wildly and even though he won with that flurry it was actually hilarious how inaccurate he was and RDA never went down.

Conor won't have the size and reach disadvantage like vs Diaz, in fact that will be in his favor. Eddie is short and compact.

Connor is so precise and much more sophisticated. After the way he came back and beat Diaz I don't think he will be derailed in his goal of holding 3 belts, and unlike the last match that went the distance Connor will go back to his usual MO - early finishes.

good luck PB, on the other side so someone will be happy tonight

also i dont think he really "came back" against diaz in the 2nd fight. He was obviously gassed and on his bicycle for the last 2 rounds to get the MD

Boom, 2nd rd KO after 3 knockdowns in the 1st.

The 8/5 was much better than the 8/15 Connor went into, knew that if Connor won it would be inside 2.

On the other hand Alvarez was in shock after losing in such a fashion and blamed himself for not sticking to the plan.
