I like gambling mma because it has maybe one million variables, whereas the stock market has a trillion variables many of which are hidden.Quote:

Thats great man. I think boxing really put a black eye on gambling combat sports. I would rather gamble mma right now then mess around in real estate. At least where I live.Quote:

That's actually why I started betting on mma, as an investing alternative.
I like Warren. That mutherfucker has fought nothing but top guys since he started his career. Not 1 can on his record.
I slap my fingers like Ali-G and say respekt!
^^^ I say give him Aldo to knock some humility into his ass.
Warren via fire pit.Quote:

He was getting lit the fuck up in a bad way in the first. Didn't even come close to getting his hands on Soto for the takedown.
I didn't see how he was going to win it.
That pez despenser knee was an OH Shit! moment.
I finally got around to watching the Soto/Warren fight in its entirety... I didn't realize how badly Warren was getting his ass kicked. Why was Soto showboating? Warren looked like he was in slow motion. I will give it to Warren, he has some heart. He was straight getting humiliated.
