Hey guys, just posting a video to get you excited somehow.  I know this isn't as good as UFC 202 but it's good enough for me.  My pick for the main event:  Condit.  I think he'll try to get it done early as Maia is a slow starter.  And he's 37 years old, so I don't see how he can edge out someone like Condit.

Checking the fight history of both fighters looks like Demian Maia is going to be the bookies favorite for this match. Demian Maia have a 5 fight winning streak unlike Carlos Condit who will come out from a loss with Robbie Lawler in UFC 195 Last January 2016. Striking defense and takedown defense shows that Demian Maia is also ahead of Carlos Condit. I guess Demian Maia is where your Bitcoin is suppose to be.

[tokeweed]

The favorite is actually Condit.  The lines opened with both of them at even money then the money went coming in at Condit.  I think I'll just a prop here.  This fight will go the distance prop looks good to me.

[tokeweed]

Just dropping by to post some videos for you guys to review each fighter before the event.  Pretty excited to see Condit in action again.

This is a really interesting match up Damiem Maia is hands down the best BJJ practitioner in the world, he will take you to the ground and grinde you out until you fade, Carlos Condit on the other hand likes to stand and trade, two different styles and two different fight mentality, these sort of fights makes me interesting. I will bet on Damiem Maia for this one. But i wont bet much since i like to see the match rather than putting a bet here.

Matches to bet are here,
Paige VanZant will win this match up here, she wanted this fight after all the soap opera stuff (dancing with the stars) and she will win this fight.

Anthony Pettis is really in a really bad shape and form right now, loosing three fights in a row and now going to 145 pounds and that to against the dangerous Charles Oliveira, i wont bet in this match too. Anthony pettis has to get back his confidence back.

We're seeing early action on Maia which is odd because he's not the favorite. Does somebody know something? Looks like it'll be a grueling match that'll go the distance though. Looking forward to this one

Yep same here, im scratching my head as to why Damien Maia is not the favorite for this match while looking at his fight history, his record is more impressive than Carlos Condit.

Condits record looks like he is on his way out of UFC and thisnis his last card to stay in UFC roster. I'll go with Maia on this one and just wait for payday.

You cant just look at records and understand how the fight really went or how close the fight was, carlos condit has being to real wars inside the cage, when ever he fights you wont see a boring fight. take his fight against GSP, it was one of the best fight of the year, it was really brutal ,it was awesome and then take the fight against Hendricks, it was yet another brutally close fight, now take a look at Tyroon Woodley match, Condit got injured during the match, his knees popped that is the reason he lost the match, and then comes the match against Robbie Lawler ,it was yet another brutal fight and a very close one. This is the history of the awesome fights Condits is being and the fights he has lost. so never underestimate Carlos condit.

[BicolIsarog]

I'd bet money on Condit. Maya has world class bjj but Condit is better in everything else and his bjj is also great. Not to mention that Condit is one of the smartest fighters in UFC so combine that with skill and Maya loses.

[notserp]

my picks are maia by sub and jim miller

fuck yeah 2 good dog plays win

[nydiacaskey01]

I knew Maia can pull a win on this fight with Condit. Maia is on a winning streak and have a good number of wins via submission. Condit made a mistake by allowing Maia to take him down and thats when Maia started to work.his way for a win via rear naked choke in the first round. Condit looked so upset on his loss.

[karmakeddon]

I'll be going on Maia on this one. Condit, although good, has too many knocks on his body already. Maia will just try to tire Condit's striking and take him to the ground. That's if Condit doesn't land a willowmaker on Maia. When that happens, everything changes. Condit will just try to finish Maia if he drops him in the first or second round.
