Damn, JB banned, Luca Fury retiring. The UFC's losing all its stars in 2018. The sport is dying

Naah you are not crazy, he has big luck and MJ is coming from 2 big losesMan. Maybe I'm crazy. But I think I like Elkins
Luck?
Luck is when your opponent slips and breaks an arm.
Being a fucking warrior that is gritty and wild until the end has nothing to do with luck. At least not in this sport.
I've been thinking a lot about usman meek .. man, I think usman "decision machine" status is overblown.. the four guys get decisioned in a row..
Strickland
Yakovlev
Leon Edwards
Warlley Alves
Guess how many times these four guys have been ko/tko'd in their entire careers?
0. None of them have ever been ko'd. Some durable fuckers. And Usman is ever improving. In fact, Meek's two losses? Tko's.
Don't discount an Usman sub, either.
I already have stabs on meek Rd 1 and Usman Rd 3, but I'm going pretty big here I think on DNGD. took it (fookin limits) at -115 and -120 and -115 again.
Not to mention Uriah Hall has a bad case of the flakes at the best of times. It's hard to imagine him losing to the ghost of Vitor, but stranger things have happened.
the guy has to be taken to a hospital because of the weight cut and you consider that flaking? wow...Uriah flakes again, I wish I could've put on a few units on "will Uriah Hall flake out?"
Was about to say the same lol weird thing to say ey?the guy has to be taken to a hospital because of the weight cut and you consider that flaking? wow...
It kind of does. Bektic did more than enough to earn a stoppage from most referees and got unlucky that he gassed himself out going for it. A bunch of those miracle comebacks are like that, when the referee is just refusing to stop a finished fight.
i dont remember the Skelly fight very well but I was under the impression that Elkins was able to finish Mirsad because he was dead tired from the first two rounds. Am I mistaken?I almost guarantee we are going to see Mirsad go out more times. Super talented fighter, but I really question his ability to take a shot. Chas Skelly had him extremely hurt in their fight and he would have lost under the new rules.
I also had Elkins, but I felt like +750 wasn't even value post-fight in that one. Bektic ate his lunch in the first.i dont remember the Skelly fight very well but I was under the impression that Elkins was able to finish Mirsad because he was dead tired from the first two rounds. Am I mistaken?
By the way, you calling Elkins in that fight might have been the most GOAT pick ever
Well, yeah. But +750 is only like 12% implied probabilityI also had Elkins, but I felt like +750 wasn't even value post-fight in that one. Bektic ate his lunch in the first.

Johnson x Elkins and Stephens x Choi could be draws. Betting on both.

Hall's never missed weight in the past so it's a bit head scratching that you're calling him a flake because of today. obv something went very wrong if he had to go to the hospitalDude's a professional fighter. You sign the contract, you make the weight. I understand last minute injuries/health conditions can happen but big weight cuts are causing a lot of these injuries. These are big weight cuts that the fighters are choosing to do to themselves. Do we have to see someone die before this kind of thing stops?
That being said I really hope Uriah is going to be OK.
