Ehhhh, love Masvidal but -420 to Usman sounds right. Maybe look for Masvidal via TKO/KO since him winning a 5 rd decision seems damn near impossible. Usman barely ever loses rounds. Usman striking is getting better too, well enough to use it to setup TD's better.
Interested in Zhang/Rose thoughts.......I hardly ever get into WMMA but this is probably the best matchup they could make. I do think Rose has some intangible questions if she starts to get hit hard but Zhang showed vs JJ that she can certainly be hit. Basically won that fight because of power discrepancy.

Of course he has a shot... will he win?? ABSOLUTELY NOT. MARTY going to do what MARTY does.... zzzzzzzz
GSP is boring. So is Usman to an extent, but last night, he’s shown he’s worked his striking and has great power, so nowhere near as boring as GSP.
Told my buddy after the fight last night, I don’t even care to see that fight, honestly. I mean I know it’s the fight they have to make I guess, but I'm not even interested really. Colby isn’t strong enough, and his striking isn’t crisp enough. I’d rather them wait for the winner of Burns/Thompson, shit I might rather even see Leon Edwards over Colby...
I think Colby striking is pretty good, he hit Usman with some nice punches in the first fight. Just as many as Usman hit him with.
Problem is he has 0 power (largely genetic) so unless he can just overwhelm you with pressure/volume (can do this vs everyone else), tough for him to beat a good striker on the feet

Yea no power, that's what I mean. His antics in the Octagon are quite boring compared to his talk outside of it, and quite honestly, that shit has gotten old too. He may be #1 ranked, but he's closer to irrelevant than a title contender IMO, and I think he knows it...
Colby throws punches in bunches but doesn't commit too much to them. Usman can take a punch pretty good and has more power. Colby would need to hit him with something unexpected to finish him. Maybe front leg head kick or a head kick over the shoulder off a punch in a way you wouldn't see. Skill for skill Usman is as good and as strong if not more so than Colby in every area. So, Colby can win but probably will not
