Tough card tonight, fade em if you wanna, the juice isn't that bad on the favorites for the most part tonight, so...




Walt Harris -135.....................2 units


Walt Harris wins inside the distance -105......................1 unit


Eryk Anders +130...................1 units


Eryk Anders wins ITD +300.....................0.5 unit


Dan Ige +135.....................1.5 units -Always been a fan of Ige, and arguably, this is his toughest test to date by far, however, I think Ige has a great chance to be at least Top 5 in the next couple of years, and has numerous years of fighting left afterwards as well, so a loss here wouldn't hurt him really, but I think if he can absord the nasty kicks of Barboza in the beginning of rounds, he can score himself, force the fight to the ground, and secure a decisive victory. I'll play that he can do just that, although I also must admit that Barboza looked really good at the weigh-ins, better than he normally does IMO, even with the extra cut.


Good luck and enjoy the fights. 3 cards in a week is great for sure....

They need better cards, this is pretty meh....Wonder if it hard to get some of the big names to fight with no crowd since the full payday won't be there. Atleast Woodley is back on the 5/30 card.

This looks good Matt. I have Jotko winning a close decision but Anders can KO him and I see that as a possibility. Anders is the play at those odds.

Thanks! Time to cook some lamb for dinner and get ready. May as well have a few drinks or a glass of wine, it's been awhile...

Everyone enjoy the weekend and stay safe out there...

Anders is boring to be so athletic, I think he’s scared to commit bc he’s scared to gas. He does well pushing forward, but is scared to TD, or beat them up in the clinch.

Dan Ige is tough as nails. Spot on analysis...Helluva fight!

Yep, I agree. Good no stoppage I guess, unfortunately. lol

That fight is definitely stopped on the amateur level, and most likely on the regional Pro level as well. For a Main Event, great call, though...
