 The last two weeks have been tough sledding after a positive month of March, so we'll look to get back on track before we get into May. This isn't the greatest card in the world, but like always, there are some spots to make some plays. This has been a real slog in the UFC schedule, but as we get closer to the summer, it should start to pick up, at least a little. While the UFC has taken a down swing in the last handful of cards, the rest of combat sports has picked up the slack, so at least there's that. I'm not the guy to complain about cards often, but putting all of these consecutively has been a bit rough. Anyways, let's get into this one. 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. Hailey Cowan defeats Jamey-Lyn Horth         ...

 We had a down week for the first time in about a month, but we'll look to get back on track with a less than exciting night in the UFC. Luckily though, combat sports will be pretty hot this weekend. I'm typing this up during Bellator 294 and we have 295 tomorrow going head to head with the UFC as well as Tank Davis vs Ryan Garcia. I would like to post more often like I used to, but even getting one in during the week has been pretty rough as I've been consistently working overtime the last month or so. If we have one thing going for us, this UFC card isn't very long, so at least it won't overstay it's welcome. I'm really excited for Patchy Mix vs Raufeon Stotts and obviously Tank vs Garcia, but I'll definitely have the UFC on as well. 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.

 Unfortunately, the midweek posts have slowed significantly recently. I've been working too much overtime to be able to do everything I want, so the Izzy vs Pereira reaction unfortunately fell by the wayside and the welterweight title picture post is still in the works. I'm hoping to get this out and not have it be too compromised, but it may not be as long as usual. On a more positive note, the betting side of this is finally looking up and it's been a very kind month of March. We have a longer card here than usual, so I'm not going to waste anymore time.  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. Joselyne Edwards defeats Lucie Pudilova               Result: Edwards by decision (1-0)        ...

 After a week off from picking fights, it feels good to be back. We did get the opening week of the PFL season and it was a pretty fun event, so that held us over. I've seen some interesting takes on this card as a whole and while I don't think it's like a card of the decade, it should be a really nice PPV. I'm excited for it and there's just something about the Adesanya vs Pereira rivalry that really intrigues me. I can't quite put a finger on what it is exactly, but it's just a really interesting dynamic that those two have. I'm ready for it.
