UFN 74: Holloway vs Oliveira

[Éire]

BOL. I'll let you come up with something.

Since the conditions of the win were pretty sketchy, I'll go light.

"Oliveira lost fair and square. Anybody that says otherwise is delusional. I was silly to doubt the wisdom of Éire."

Without the quotations, por favor.

[SPX]

Yeah. Two contenders facing off to see which one advances one step closer to a title shot and this is how things all down. All that training, all that focus, all that desire . . . and it was all for nothing.

[Luke]

In this instance the odds makers weren't that far off (Val opened at +130) but the public were wrong cos they were all over that ridiculous #8 ranking and the fact Moroz was calling out the champ. She'd done absolutely nothing of note before that win against JoJo, who herself is slightly overrated and who was coming into that fight with some personal issues. For me the size difference was the key in the fight and the lack of wrestling for Moroz. I like scouting and betting on women's MMA cos people know a lot less about it. :)

Laprise went from -190 to -460. Way worse public line movement

Never lay more than -200 on a women not named Rousey

I wanna see a rematch. No reason not to have one

Oh, well thank you. Eire the Merciful.

All right, done.

[SPX]

Well on that deflating and depressing note, I'm out of here guys. See y'all tomorrow.

[Éire]

Oh, well thank you. Eire the Merciful.

All right, done.

Hahaha, I feel like a dick doing this. But at the same time, it's pretty comical. Sorry, man. I'll take a dog next time.

Well, that's how the game goes.

We need closure for this. Oliveira deserves another shot, not to be pushed to the back of the line, as though he's a bum.

Oh I didn't know this was also the live discussion topic. I glanced on here earlier and didn't see one labeled for live discussion so I went on to another place.

In the past we've tended to have a small group chatting during events. It will probably take a few weeks for all that to come together again. But tonight was a start.

[KhabibTheBeagle]

I'll definitely be back for the next fight card discussion, and I'll visit during the week. Need to go to bed, now, gotta' be up in 4 hours.

Later man

[CriticalHit]

Yeah, I'll catch the UFC 191 topic next time.

Disappointing end tonight but a few nice upsets and some exciting fights. I just wish TV card pacing wasn't excruciating.

Once the fights start, discussion is over, so we just use the same thread

[HeyBoone]

...And I got murdered lol.

[SPX]

...And I got murdered lol.

It happens, man. I just had two bets--Burkman and Oliveira--and that was just money down the drain. There's always the next event.

[BetMMA]

And there it is. Should've put the money I put on Burkman on Magny.

I bailed on Burkman before I went to bed and cashed out... Woke up this morning and watched the fight with a sigh relief :P Had it going to a decision though so not all good!

[Luke]

I've come to the conclusion that Burkman's win over Fitch was a complete fluke.

He's lost 4 of 5 since then
