i think Travis Browne is finished, Derrick Lewis is going to physically dominant this fight. What can Travis Browne throw at him that Nelson didn't. Nelson just KOed Silva who has become the UFC punching bag in his last couple fights. Brown should have been disqualified from the Mitrione fight for eye pokes. Browne last quality win hasn't been since 2013 over Barnett who just takes fights for the paychecks now.

I think you might be right. It sucks to see what's happened to brown since he came in the UFC having some of the best footwork and kicks of any heavyweight. I will say he will b the best striker Lewis has faced as a heavyweight, but he's trending down. Will be interesting to see the odds on this one.

According to the Daily Mail, Rousey’s home was spray painted on Monday evening. The graffiti is indecipherable and doesn’t necessarily address Rousey or her loss. However, it is certainly a headache for the former champion who has suffered back-to-back knockout losses after starting her MMA career winner her first 12 fights. This cant help Browne.

Why did Browne move from one of the best, if not the best, MMA-camp in the world, to a gym run by a amateur trainer in Glendale at this important point in his carrer?

Then at UFC 203 [FONT=&quot]Werdum, who defeated Browne by unanimous decision, engaged in a heated war of words with Browne’s coach Edmond Tarverdyan (who also trains Ronda Rousey) [/FONT]

I would agree on Lewis. The downturn for Brown started with him leaving Jackson's camp and going fulltime to Glendale...I think he's just got too much of that Edmond stink on him and has stopped evolving. Or the KO's are starting to pile up (no shame in being KO'd by Arlovski or Cain, but hes 34 now.

I would think Lewis opens at least -160. I may be off, I'd comfortably lay juice to that figure.

Hoping to grab a decent dog price with Randamie. Honestly know very little about her but the Holm line always inflated. Holly's not a special fighter.

[FONT=&quot]We should be getting Lewis at plus money , worst case we get -120

Serra believes Rousey isn't sparring correctly for an MMA fight.[/FONT]

[FONT=&quot]“You fight the way that you spar. That's a given. There was no Plan B. There was no, ‘I've got to circle, I've got to get on the bike a little bit because I'm stunned.' She was still trying to get a hold of her. These are all things that need to be worked out in sparring,” he said. “She needs correct sparring, smart sparring.”[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Since the loss to Nunes, Rousey's coach, Edmond Tarverdyan has been taking a beating worse than the one Rousey suffered at UFC 207. While Serra says that he likes Tarverdyan, he questioned his coaching.[/FONT]

Nice hit with Lewis! Thought Browne caught a break when he started grabbing his abdomen early but all worked out in the end.

Love Ferguson as a fighter, but Nurmagomedov is a different level. Hoping line moves down some more to jump on but I think it's about as low as it's going to go.

Think Hunt at +$ is one to keep an eye on as well. Got a nibble at +120 but hoping for +130 to drop some more.

Interested to see the Evans/Kelly line as well. If Evans has ANYTHING left he should handle Kelly but not looking to lay much juice and sure Evans name alone will make them lay decent odds his favor, though probably unjustified. 9 years since the Liddell KO!?!? Wild it's been that long ago.
