Nice card with a couple huge fights tonight

I like these with CAMUR being my top play so far.


  • index.php
    Aleska Camur -157 … Knight is a raw talent who relies too heavily on his power. He shoots for takedowns often (3.54 avg) but with poor technique. He was KO’d once (although it looked like an early stoppage). He tends to turtle up into a fetal position (see Brundage fight) when taking damage. His striking is subpar although he has power, doesn't really have one punch KO power. Camur’s a very promising prospect with excellent striking, strength, and a good chin…enough to take a few from Knight. His striking defense (66%) should be good enough to avoid taking enogh bombs to get KO’d. Skill level should easily carry him on cards and possible finish. Probably will also lean on 1842 Camur points handicap -3½ -105 as well
  • Jake Matthews …could get ugly with his improved boxing, Diego Sanchez is sadly toasted and near the end of the road. Hate laying this big juice but Sanchez is tough enough he may be able to go the distance even getting pounded the whole time. Probably take it ITD -115
  • Kai Kara-France -210 ... Royval is a scary sub artist, but KKF is too strong on the feet and will be able to stuff takedowns. Also KKF's striking is way underrated. We could definitely see a finish. 1233 Kara-France wins by TKO/KO +545 looks like a really juicy side bet.
  • Israel Adesanya -180No matter what you think, Costa doesn’t have terrifying KO power (see L3 fights vs Romero, Hall, Hendricks). He relies on volume (8.43 strikes per min) and unrelenting pressure. Izzy has good enough technique and defense to keep Costa at bay. Costa vs Hall shows how much a quick jab slowed/deterred him from advancing. I’ll concede this is a scary fight as many people point to Gastelum giving Izzy trouble especially in a brawling situation. However, Izzy did weather the storm as his chin was able to hold up. As far as I can tell Izzy has all the standup advantages here and Paulo’s best chance may be getting the fight to the ground…not likely. I see value in later round KO for Izzy as it pays +875, +1050 and +1250 for finishes in 3rd, 4th and 5th respectfully.

FWIW I been doing well lately but I'm probably due for an off night. Also I usually don't do as well on the big PPV so I will be treading lightly.

worth considering....


  • Zubaira Tukhugov -135 … The striking in this matchup should be pretty even. Dawodu has really powerful leg kicks, but his striking is rather basic. I don’t think Tukhugov is much better but he has shown KO power in the UFC. I mostly favor Tukhugov here because of his ability to mix in the takedown even if his top control isn’t great. He probably wont do much damage on the ground even if he gets the fight there, however with the striking being equal the takedowns and control time on the ground will really sway the judges. Also I can see Tukhugov having slight KO upside. Also to consider Tukhugov came in 4 pounds over the weight limit, so I think he has a weight advantage and quite likely a cardio advantage.
  • Also...although Reyes has a great chance to win, I will likely back Jan based on value. Dude is tough as fuck with real KO power plus has above average ground game and is being way underrated imho. Reyes should be around 150-180 in my opinion. Jan Blachowicz +235

Any thoughts on Jan by TKO/KO? Don't really see him getting a decision over Reyes.

Agree with you on Izzy and might take him to KO small, if Costa was slowing down in rd 3 vs Romero then I'd think Izzy can get him out of there if it is his fight to win. He just comes forward at such a fast pace, hard to see the fight going 25.

Got +400 on TKO Ko or DQ
Double the value of just winning
To be fair 19 of his 26 wins are by submission or decision
But 10 of 13 in the UFC are submission or decision
While none are 5 rounders though

So, a win by KO isn't as great as it sounds I suppose

Jan ITD is prolly a good way to roll since he also has sub ability

I should've bet it but I was watching ball and then it started right after. Nice hit.

Reyes just a little too much respect for his fight with Jones. I had him there but big diff between +400 and -260 which he was tonight.
