Truth. I looked at Hunt's MMA record and he's like 6-5 or some shit like that. And granted, all (or most?) of his losses have been to big names, but all of his wins are to people I've never heard of.
I figured I should bet against the guy that hasn't won a fight in forever and was obviously just fighting for a paycheck. Everyone seemed to think Hunt was going to win so I started to think I was stupid...guess not.

That, added to the fact that McCorkle dwarfed Hunt at the weigh-ins and also Hammersmith picked McCorkle to win, made me consider it. But I knew if McCorkle lost then I'd get pissed and berate myself for making bets without doing the proper research.
I feel you, but I was looking at McCorkle being a bum hunter, and Hunt at least has a pedigree. The last fuckin thing I thought would be a sub in this one. I figured they would bang it out, and Hunt would win.
Well I guess Grant was good for it. Everyone thought so. I've kind of got a new rule though: Not betting on anyone without at least 3 fights in a major organization against opponents I'm familiar with. There's usually just not enough info otherwise.
Oh, and good luck PP. Sounds like you got this one in the bag.
