Well, last week was a blood bath from the betting side of things for me and my first losing week since returning, but man was it brutal. I felt pretty good about most of my plays and they just really didn't go my way at all. Maybe it is a good thing for me that this week's card is pretty bad. There's not very many good fights and not too many places to jump in for a bet, so maybe a slow week is what I will need to get back on track. Let's get to it. Just to be clear, my picks will be in the bolded font , and the real results will be listed next to it in italics after the fight is official. Official bets will be at the bottom. Bets are now being officially tracked at BetMMA as well. Abdul Hussein defeats Cody Gibson Result: In a card full of uninteresting fights, we'll start with one of them. In the grand scheme of things, I think there are some questions that Hussein will need to answer before anyone...
Last week was a very interesting week of action from start to finish. The first 13 fights of the night went about as perfectly as the UFC could have hoped for. Pretty much all of the fights delivered some good action, even the few that went to decision. I would say Basharat vs Garza was probably the worst fight of the night up until the main event and even then, it wasn't that bad of a fight. Then we saw what happened in the main and it really put a rain cloud over the whole event unfortunately. Personally, I don't really think Conor had a pre-existing injury. There's video of him in the back throwing kicks right before he walked out and he seemed pretty normal to me. I think Conor wants out of his UFC deal to go fight on Netflix or in BKFC or whatever he wants to do, so we'll probably see him again whenever he's recovered, but I really don't know what kind of hype it will have. This one felt a little less interesting than in the past and I suspect the next one...
