Reasons for me...

-NG has looked like total dog pooh last couple fights
-NG won the first one by doc stoppage, and looking for Blaydes to avenge that loss
-Blaydes wrestling is miles ahead of NG, no matter how much NG has improved it
-Blaydes has looked great, and should have a title shot lined up with a W here
-Blaydes has talked pooh about the hvywgt Division and the UFC as a whole, time to back it up
-Blaydes is the overall better fighter with more paths to victory

All in all, you’d think I’m playing Blaydes, but I doubt I’m touching this shit. A surprise FGTD may be the best play if you insist, but I haven’t even looked at the odds...

FGTD is +185

I view the line being what it is for a few reasons.

Blaydes grappling
NG's lack of grappling
NG's last two fights specifically his last terrible fight
NG's shitty gas tank

I agree with this. People don’t even remember the Miocic fight, they remember the most boring big man fight they’ve ever seen last
time out with Derrick Lewis. It’s actually one of the things that stops me the most from playing Blaydes (besides the juice) because NG is still a huge and powerful dude that can end the fight quickly with just a glancing blow, and it could easily happen as we all know, but Blaydes is definitely the better grappler, and overall fighter, but who knows what we’re gonna get. He should be hungry for a dominating win, though, so we shall see...

This...

Blaydes is the better fighter I think we all agree but if NG comes out with his fighting career on the line, we may get the Reem KO NG and that would cash a nice dog for us. Hard fight to predict. How do you cap NG's mindset?

Every fighter made right on weight with the exception of Rashad Coulter who is making his light heavyweight return after going 0-3 at heavyweight in the UFC.


Coulter will be fined 20% of his purse ... fight will continue as scheduled.

I'm taking a shot with NG at +215. Wounded animal most likely threatened to step it up or step out of the UFC. Can resist that + money.

Can't argue with this at all. Both look in great shape and ready to bang...
