Re: WEC 48

I might just swear off WEC events totally after this. Twice in a row now I've fucking bombed on them, totally 3.5u in losses each time.

I'm about even overall with betting on WEC events. I think it's harder and one of the biggest reasons for that is that the fights are a lot harder to find so research ends up being sketchier, unless you're dealing with the fighters who you see all the time like Faber, Cerrone, etc.

WEC bonuses:

Gamburyan KO of the night

Hendo Submission of the night

Jung/Garcia fight of the night

Each guy gets 65k for the bonuses

Wow, huge bonuses for the WEC. Aren't they usually like $7K? I guess that's what going to PPV gets you.

By the way, I'm really curious to see what kind of numbers the event did.

Yeah, SPX. I'd be pretty surprised if Manny isn't fighting Aldo next. He completely vanquished Mike Brown.

My guess is management was probably pretty happy because they were like, "Hey, now we can legitimately give Aldo someone other than Faber and Brown."

^^Pretty cool of Dana to speculate on Mike Brown's personal business.

What are you referring to?

I am referring to the outright robbery that was the Jung/Garcia fight.

Re: WEC 48

Right. Pretty terrible. I knew Garcia would get it too.

He should literally be 0-5 in his last 5 fights, yet he's 2-2-1 thanks to some judging favors. Sad.

It's stuff like this that I wish I knew before betting on someone.

Round one was close

49-44 means they gave Aldo a 10-8 in the 3rd too.So they had the same score as I did.I dont give a lot of merit to them anyway
