Weigh in results...  Bontorin had a bad weight cut, so a Schnell bet could prolly be good.  And it’s funny cos Bontorin really fights at 125 and be misses weight at 135?

Not sure, but I can never really root for someone who missed weight. I'm staying away from that fight anyway, as I couldn't really determine who I think will win. I've got a pretty big accumulator on as I do every weekend. I always lose, but it at least makes the fights more fun.

8 fold with a 17k payout. Low stakes. The other accumulator is around a 30k payout for around 20 pound stake. Can't wait to lose some more money today boys, and girls!

Good luck with your prediction.

The early prelims starts and here are my predictions for UFC 262.
Kevin Aguilar, Antonina Shevchenko, Mike Grundy, Viviane Araujo, Matt Schnell, Tony Ferguson and in the main event i am picking Michael Chandler even though i am expecting Charles Oliveira to give him a good fight.

[boltz]

I will take 1 by 1 the follow games :

Lutz

Gina

Mike

Tony

Chandler

I won't play all the games on card but this ones seems pretty solid with nice odds to take. Right now I'm watching Aguilar vs Lutz and so far seems a close battle that might to the distance.

what a performance from Oliveira, he deserve it

[notblox1]

King is dead, long live the king!
Amazing fight, Oliveira is the new Champion and we could only imagine how he would match up with Khabib in some fantasy fight, unless someone changes his mind.
He could possible be the only one living man who could beat or challenge Khabib.

Ferguson vs Dariush was probably most boring fight in this event. Total dominance by Dariush. This is a second fight where Tony was completety dominated by his opponent. I guess that is it. He will be fired from UFC and probably wont continue career in other organization. I will always remember him as a tough fighter that shows bloody fights.

Dariush made it look boring and by doing that he actually made a statement. If he could make a fight with Ferg look boring, one-sided and as a clinic, he is ready for the big leagues. Give that man someone in the top, he deserves it.

Beniel Dariush VS Tony Ferguson

At first, we could see that Dariush really is aiming for a ground fight but Ferguson's defense had prevented it at first but it appears that in another takedown it is successful, Ferguson really did his best in gaining the upper hand in the ground fight but Dariush is too good at it, but Great job to Tony Ferguson in Dariush interview after the fight he said that Ferguson's leg pop but wonders why Tony Ferguson didn't tap out and Ferguson keeps on kicking him so Dariush thinks he envies Tony Ferguson because he is sure that he heard Tony's leg pop but he respects Ferguson on that aspect.

Charles Oliveira VS Michael Chandler

This is what I think happened, and I really think that could really be the outcome of the fight but Chandler really has speed in getting to Oliveira moving forwards he truly is a scary striker in the UFC but Oliveira blocks Chandler's right hand with both his hands and his knee I really think Oliveira is a very calculating fighter, in the first round he really gives it to Chandler and studying his move so on the 2nd round Chandler is tired and Oliveira now is doing the damage to Michael Chandler Now Charles Oliveira is the champion now.

Beniel Dariush just need one more fight so that he could fight for the title and it was an unpredictable card for me as most of my picks lost the fight  .

Tony Ferguson was disappointing and it is time for him to slow down or retire as this was his third straight loss and i was expecting him to battle it out and somehow win the fight but that was not the case.

The main event was awesome and Charles Oliveira just continued his momentum and won the belt and with the way he is fighting i would like to see Khabib returning to fight him for his 30th fight as Charles Oliveira is a really tough fighter and it will hype the fans once Charles Oliveira makes a couple of title defense.

I turned off my TV on that fight because I simply cannot stand those kind of fights and Tony is expired and it should retire as soon as possible before he becomes a joke of what he used to be. Regarding Chandler , I saw the highlight and I don't understand how could he be so cooky before the fight and have a big mouth but when he entered the octagon, Oliveira simply gave him no chances.

[tokeweed]

^  Chandler had him in the first round and he was pounding on Oliveira’s head but survived to see the second round.  I really thought he was wining until he got caught.  Lol.  And Chandler never came across as ‘cocky’.  At least not for me.  He’s a well spoken guy and he would’ve made a good champ imo.  A kind of person who you’d like represent the sport.

It’s always good to listen to Dana White after every event.

It was a really great fight, after watching the first round i thought Michael Chandler would win the belt as i thought the referee would stop the fight and some of the judges even scored the round 10- 8 but the second round was completely opposite as Charles Oliveira started attacking and he was able to land a good punch and then follow up with that until the referee stopped the fight and it is a fitting career for Charles Oliveira as he is fighting in the UFC for 10 years.

[Welsh]

Honestly, wouldn't mind seeing another Chandler VS Oliveria fight was damn close for both of them in both rounds. As for Ferguson, I'm gutted for him. Dariush made it easier than I was expecting that's for sure. I don't think we will see Ferguson retire any time soon though, I actually think he might be cut from the UFC before he willingly leaves.

One of my accumulators wasn't a million miles away, but who cares that card was an absolute blast from start to finish. Andrea Lee with the triangle arm bar was absolutely brilliant. She definitely has a fan in me from her performance.

[notblox1]

Ferguson is finished and it is even worse than I expected, he is not ready to compete anymore in top level and his body is affected with so many injuries and punches he absorbed.
My prediction for him is that Dana White will give him one more fight with some new and young prospect or some fight with other veteran to finish his contract.
Everyone now knows recipe how to break Tony Ferguson easy, but will have to wait his leg to heal for his last fight and I am not sure he will heal mentally any time soon...

[boltz]

what a performance from Oliveira, he deserve it

It was an awesome fight card last night besides the Tony fight which was ugly and could not watch it but the main even rise to the expectation and delivered a great show. Oliveira really came more prepared mentally and had more patience when Chandler was all about dog fight and going aggressive knowing that if he catches 2-3 good punches we will make the K.O and he wasn't far to be honest. Too bad I lost on both Tony and Chandler on bets.

I'm not entirely convinced hes finished yet, and I feel that is a little reactionary. Although, I will admit the fight did take me by surprise as I thought Ferguson was at least going to be a little more competitive than he was.

Its a shame to see legends of the sport drop off, but it is somewhat inevitable. I believe Khabib will likely be one of the only legends in the sport to go unbeaten, since they typically fight a long time after they start to decline. However, with Khabib's circumstances it didn't really allow him to do that.

I was also hoping that Tony Ferguson could win the fight as he is on a loosing streak and that too against really good opponents but in the past he was able to counter the moves with his creativeness and manage to win the fight but it looks like he is finding it hard to perform like he used to be in the past.

Khabib Nurmagomedov is the only fighter that retired undefeated when he is holding the belt, it is an impossible task to be undefeated and undisputed champion when you retire and GSP is the only other fighter who retired when he was the champion and Khabib is still in his prime and there is no signs of slowing down when he retired and usually no one does that but it looks like he is a man of his words and we might not see him ever again.

I am a big fan of Conor, however, agreed on Khabib. It appears that he was telling everyone the truth when he was talking about building his legacy more than fighting for money. I wish father did not pass away because I would like to see him one more time in the octagon.

It also appears that Dana mentioned El Cucuy will not be dumped as part of the UFC’s none performing assets hehe. He might be transformed into a stepping stool fighter to fight younger fighters, however.

Tony Ferg has been disappointing for the last year and a half or so, right after he tripped on some good damn wires while wearing shades inside and injuring himself. That will go down as one of the most ridiculous ways to end your chance at a title.

^  Chandler had him in the first round and he was pounding on Oliveira’s head but survived to see the second round.  I really thought he was wining until he got caught.  Lol.  And Chandler never came across as ‘cocky’.  At least not for me.  He’s a well spoken guy and he would’ve made a good champ imo.  A kind of person who you’d like represent the sport.o

I wouln't go so far as to say he got caught as Olivs knew what he was throwing and why (and when to throw it), but god damn I had no idea Chandler would put such a performance in the first round. I take back everything I said, he deserved that shot and presented himself as an exceptional fighter. When he caught Charlie with (I think) a left hook that forced Olivs to go for a shitty double leg...OH BOY...
