It will not be in China, I reckon. This move will certainly be politicized by the Biden administration because China is a silent ally of Russia. Dana is also a popular supporter of the Donald Trump during his presidential campaigns. He does not want give Biden the wrong type of attention hehehe. However, the UFC can always go to fight island, Abu Dhabi for international fights.
Yes they can go to Fight Island AbuDhabi but UFC will be forced to remove all fighters coming from Russia and they won't be able to travel anywhere in the world. Only solution would be if they move if they move to live in some other country, but I am not sure how they are going to receive paychecks in future when Russia is now excluded from banking and cards. Maybe paying them in Bitcoin would be possible ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Even if Dana White searches for a solution like moving the event to another country he can get some sanctions to deal with Russian fighters. We already see how US gives sanctions to china and to other countries for making deals with Russia. So, they will try to ban all the activities that benefit the Russian people, and sadly UFC will be involved in this.

Despite there being a war that is definitely effected millions of people, either directly through the war or through sanctions, I don't agree with booing, or removing Russian fighters. If the Russian government was directly benefiting from the athletes winning fights, then I could potentially see why people would want them not to compete, despite whether or not I would actually agree with that, at least I could see why people came up with that answer. However, right now I'm seeing hostilities to Russian athletes across several sports, and all its proven to me is that a lot of people are being racist, and holding innocent people responsible for something they have no control over.
I think the UFC are doing the right thing by avoiding politics interfering with how they handle things. At the end of the day, the Russian fighters are innocent people who happen to be from Russia, they had no control over the situation that's currently ongoing.
Anyway, enough about politics back this weekend's card. Looks a decent card, I'll try, and get my predictions up Friday. Although, last weekend I had an absolute mare, including the main event. I honestly thought Masvidal would get dominated on the ground, but would be able to get enough separation to put Colby to sleep. There was one point in the fight where he did drop him, and I thought that might be the beginning on the end for Colby, but Masvidal didn't really pressure it.
Although, I will admit the most sound call was likely a Colby decision, and throughout the week I kept flipping between the two, either a Colby decision or a Masvidal knockout, with the knockout being priced at 4.0 (might have been 4.75) I thought that was were the value was.

I totally agree with you 100% this kind of approach in Russian people are not really appropriate and could cause racism to many people, just like what happen with asian people in the states when the Pandemic hits, most asian's receive racism to the entire world, a negative impact will not be solve with a negative impact as well, it will only cause so much negativity to both parties, anyway I really didn't like the Covington VS Masvidal fight, but for me it is just OK and I really know that Covington will surely win that one, well based on their sparring session Covington is dominating masvidal in the ground, and with that I have come up to a conclusion,

Masvidal was also good at defending himself actually. He is just dominated, he isn't a wrestler so that is given that he will have a hard time. Since Russian athletes are banned, would they be able to organize an event for Russians only as well or are they also banned in doing such with Eagle FC? Not sure how this will really find a way to be broadcast on big channels though. Youtube maybe.

Because a Russian athlete Evgeny Markov competed in the Arnold Strongman Classic last weekend without any issues. Maybe this works as it did with the Russian athletes at the Olympics as Russia was banned due to doping allegations, so they had to compete as free agents and not under a flag. I know this is a different situation as going from point A to point B is much harder now.

A lot of people are saying that Magomed Ankalaev is going to get a title shot after this fight if he wins it. But I really doubt that because there are some specific sets of things that need to go right for that to happen.
First of all Jan Błachowicz needs to lose against Aleksandar Rakić, and Anthony Smith needs to not sign a contract at all because if he signs a fight and wins it he is going to get the title shot. So, I don't think the title shot will have to wait for Magomed Ankalaev. He will need 1 more match.
I also find it doubtfully that he will get a title shot after this fight. However, he fully deserves it. I think that Ankalaev next opponent could be Jiri Prochazka. And the winner of this fight is going to have a title shot. Also I am not sure who is going to be light heavyweight champion, by the time Ankalaev or Prochazka will have a title fight. I find it hard to believe that Teixeira will manage to defend his belt. And to be honest I am not a big fan of Paddy Pimblett. Too much showboating for my liking. And about being the next Conor McGregor, I think it's still too early to say.
The reason why people compare him with McGregor, is that he is arrogant as Conor is. At somehow he manages to gain attention and audience. UFC needs a guy like that. They need a joker or an ace to sell PPV. They have or had Ngannou, but he causes a lot of troubles. Covington can make good sales. Who else can talk shit and create drama in UFC?

Tyron Woodley, Robbie Lawler and Rafael Dos Anjos are all good wrestlers.
Jorge Masvidal may have fared better against Colby's wrestling than some of those names did.
Colby also managed to take Kamaru down in their second fight, albeit briefly.
...
I hope dagestani chechens in the UFC are not banned.
Dagestan was at war with russia not long ago and in ways they may still be if rumors of russian troops abducting dagestanis off the street for interrogation are true.

Ok, you have my attention. I am not a betting man but always find it intriguing how people bet and everything that comes with it. As for Ankalaev vs Santos, finally something interesting in the LHW division. Don't think that Santos will pose a real threat here, but he will definitely put up a fight, and I am really interested to see what he could do on the ground in regards to Ankalaev's wrestling. Ok, he is a BJJ black belt but he's not considered to be a high-level grappler in regards to other high-profiled BJJ practitioners. Yeah, it's basically a full event parlay but structuring it with your most confident picks at the top of the heap then bet money on that. Your next confident picks added at the second layer of the heap then also betting on that, and on and on it goes to your third, fourth or fifth layer depending on how you structure your parlays. So looking at the lines right now I'd prolly go... Ankalaev - Semelsberger - Maverick at 2.12 for 20 bucks Add: Peirera - Yadong - Dalcha at 8.15 for 5 bucks Add: Dober - Yussuf - Rountree at 35.78 for 2 bucks Add: Aldrich - Jones - Murzakanov at 247.41 for 1 USD Add: Jackson - Canneti at 1023.28 for 1 USD So that's a total of 29 USD outlay. It's like a fun lottery ticket. Lol. Edit: Doing this is prolly better after the weigh ins.

I was busy this weekend and I didn't watch any UFC fights but I saw results and they came up like I expected for main event with Covington win. It's nice to see more sportsbet casinos are making deal with UFC fighters, Brandom Moreno is a great fighter and Roobet is making good competition to Stake. Maybe Sportsbet will be next to sign a deal with some good fighter to make things more crypto spicy ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Well I think the same as you, Brandon Moreno is a great ambassador for Robbet and I'm glad they're taking that strategy, stake.com has many ambassadors, in the Premier League too, recently the Colombian "Cucho" scored a tremendous goal, and they are already talking about how it may be the best goal of the entire Premier League of the season, somehow it exalts it, because everyone sees stake.com on their shirts, as with Israel in the UFC, in this case sportsbet. io if they do the same with a UFC fighter they would be letting the world know that the main platforms are choosing to enter sports and be part of them in history, the truth is not bad at all.

I see two different and opposing opinions from people for main event Thiago Santos vs Magomed Ankalaev. Some say this will be boring fight to watch, and others claim this is going to be fast and furious first round finish fight. I think it all depends how Thiago Santos starts the fight, and I am sure what tactics will be used by Ankalaev. Such low odds on Ankalaev are not justified in my opinion, even if I think that he is favorite to win this fight.

Yeah, wasn't this quite controversial because the UFC didn't officially recognize it as a take down? Thus, the accusations started that the UFC was trying to protect Usman's takedown defense record. When I watched it, I was pretty damn certain that it was a takedown, and while Colby definitely did lose that fight quite convincingly, he did get that take down. I wouldn't expect that fight to go any different even if they continued to fight each other for the rest of their careers, except for maybe a few knockouts by Usman. Can't see Colby every becoming champion while Usman is around.

It will not be in China, I reckon. This move will certainly be politicized by the Biden administration because China is a silent ally of Russia. Dana is also a popular supporter of the Donald Trump during his presidential campaigns. He does not want give Biden the wrong type of attention hehehe. However, the UFC can always go to fight island, Abu Dhabi for international fights.
Australia is also open for UFC. Do they have sanctions against Russia? I did not hear that. It will be funny if they have. Where is Australia and where is Russia. I dont think that any major business has connections with Russia. Abu Dhabi is an excellent place to make international fights or fights where athletes from Russia compete. Its infrastructure is highly developed, they have experience. And even if they dont have something to run an event, they can create in no time. Australia is an American ally, if the Biden administration orders bans or sanctions on all Russian athletes, the government of Australia will certainly follow. It will not be in China, I reckon. This move will certainly be politicized by the Biden administration because China is a silent ally of Russia. Dana is also a popular supporter of the Donald Trump during his presidential campaigns.

Yes they can go to Fight Island AbuDhabi but UFC will be forced to remove all fighters coming from Russia and they won't be able to travel anywhere in the world. Only solution would be if they move if they move to live in some other country, but I am not sure how they are going to receive paychecks in future when Russia is now excluded from banking and cards. Maybe paying them in Bitcoin would be possible ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I reckon if payments are done in cryptocoins they should never use bitcoin hehehe. I will not shill what altcoin they should choose, however, it would be safer for them to use something that would give them more anonymity if they do not restraining orders on their public addresses similar to those Canadian protestors hehe.

Actually, I can't remember many fights being canceled after a successful weigh-in, so anything after weigh-in should be A-OK. For the money you just outlined, that's not that much to just try it out and see how it works. It seems like a cool concept might even try it out for myself for shits and giggles. However, my overall track record on detrmaning winners is not all that good XD

I am not sure how they are going to receive paychecks in future when Russia is now excluded from banking and cards. Maybe paying them in Bitcoin would be possible ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I am sure, that those fighters, that fight in UFC and pay taxes, have local bank cards. So it wont be a problem to receive paycheck and spend money I am even sure that Russian fighters have local cards, because Russian banks are "complicated". I had experience with having a bank account in Russian bank, and as main currency is Russian ruble, it was quite a quest to convert my account into multi currency. But maybe it was that hard because I was a foreigner. And I remember my former boss had Bank of America account, while being Russian citizen. But he has closed it, because sending money from Russian account to his American bank account was also a hard quest. As in Russia bank account consist only of numbers (20 numbers and field dont allow letters), when whole world uses <bank swift code or BIC> + 11 numbers. Some Russian banks dont even have a field to write swift code. The easiest way to send currency from Russian bank was to contact support or visit their office and ask operator for help. Such situation was in 2012-2017, and I dont think much have change since that. So I believe that Russians or other uses local American cards. Receiving paychecks is not a problem P.S. It is easy to open bank account in the US. Even tourist can open it. US is open for business and want to earn every possible way ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

anyway I really didn't like the Covington VS Masvidal fight, but for me it is just OK and I really know that Covington will surely win that one, well based on their sparring session Covington is dominating masvidal in the ground, and with that I have come up to a conclusion,
Masvidal was also good at defending himself actually. He is just dominated, he isn't a wrestler so that is given that he will have a hard time. Since Russian athletes are banned, would they be able to organize an event for Russians only as well or are they also banned in doing such with Eagle FC? Not sure how this will really find a way to be broadcast on big channels though. Youtube maybe. Jorge Masvidal sure did great aswell, but Colby Covington is just really that good and has the advantage on the ground game, and I think he just utilize all of that in their match, I surely believe that Masvidal is not really going to win against Covington when they decide a rematch, I don't really know what may happen to all Muslim fighters on the UFC and if the eagle FC would continue because of what is happening war against Ukraine and Russia, but 1 thing is for sure many countries are now supporting the banning of certain athletes to certain sports whether it is on the Olympics or a likely sports, I do think we should not let this happen, not all Russians wants something like this to happen they do not control the war and they don't wish for it to happen, I really think excluding them in this kind of issue is not really an understatement we should not make a big issue about it, And just in remember when Dana White said that Islam Makhachev has turned down a short-notice fight against Rafael Dos Anjos, but Islam Makhachev have replied that he didn't turn down the fight, well I really don't know the real reason but at least I have known that Makhachev really didn't pull out from that fight, in my opinion Islam Makhachev will never really turn down from a fight he said in an interview he will beat whoever he faces.

I also find it doubtfully that he will get a title shot after this fight. However, he fully deserves it. I think that Ankalaev next opponent could be Jiri Prochazka. And the winner of this fight is going to have a title shot. Also I am not sure who is going to be light heavyweight champion, by the time Ankalaev or Prochazka will have a title fight. I find it hard to believe that Teixeira will manage to defend his belt. Glover Teixeira might not be able to defend his title till that time, in my opinion. But, I think regardless of that Magomed Ankalaev is going to get the title shot if he keeps showing good performance, and he totally deserves it. I think, he is good with his stand up but once he gets his opponent on the ground, that's where he really shines. And to be honest I am not a big fan of Paddy Pimblett. Too much showboating for my liking. And about being the next Conor McGregor, I think it's still too early to say.
The reason why people compare him with McGregor, is that he is arrogant as Conor is. At somehow he manages to gain attention and audience. UFC needs a guy like that. They need a joker or an ace to sell PPV. They have or had Ngannou, but he causes a lot of troubles. Covington can make good sales. Who else can talk shit and create drama in UFC? Actually, they need a guy like Muhammad Ali. He was the best at this business. Conor McGregor is not in his prime anymore, Ngannou causes a lot of trouble. Of course, paddy can talk shit but I don't think he will reach the top level of fighting, and I genuinely think that people are hyping up this fighter too much.

Yup, best to wait for the last possible minute to bet on MMA. Actually, I can't remember many fights being canceled after a successful weigh-in, so anything after weigh-in should be A-OK. For the money you just outlined, that's not that much to just try it out and see how it works. It seems like a cool concept might even try it out for myself for shits and giggles. However, my overall track record on detrmaning winners is not all that good XD
Yeah, I've made this mistake just last weekend. I bet on one of the fighters in a massive accumulator, a very good value one which I expected him to 100% win the bout, and his opponent pulls out which automatically voids that selection, which would have reduced my total winnings, so I just cashed out. When the value is there though, it's hard to ignore since definite wins, or as close as you can get them can add a few thousand to long accumulators.

I don't really know what may happen to all Muslim fighters on the UFC and if the eagle FC would continue because of what is happening war against Ukraine and Russia, but 1 thing is for sure many countries are now supporting the banning of certain athletes to certain sports whether it is on the Olympics or a likely sports, I do think we should not let this happen, not all Russians wants something like this to happen they do not control the war and they don't wish for it to happen, I really think excluding them in this kind of issue is not really an understatement we should not make a big issue about it,

I think Jorge Masvidal did well but he just got outwrestled. We all know how strong Jorge Masvidal can hit. You know he has the fastest knockout record in the UFC. But once the fight goes to the ground I think certain fighters are really better than him. And I also think that he is not going to win the rematch if they decide to do that. I don't think the UFC is going to ban Russian fighters because they generate a large amount of money for the UFC. And I am not sure what to say about the Islam Makhachev and Rafael dos Anjos situation because I have no idea who is speaking the truth here. But I think Islam Makhachev is not someone who will run from any fight.

Ok, you have my attention. I am not a betting man but always find it intriguing how people bet and everything that comes with it. As for Ankalaev vs Santos, finally something interesting in the LHW division. Don't think that Santos will pose a real threat here, but he will definitely put up a fight, and I am really interested to see what he could do on the ground in regards to Ankalaev's wrestling. Ok, he is a BJJ black belt but he's not considered to be a high-level grappler in regards to other high-profiled BJJ practitioners. Yeah, it's basically a full event parlay but structuring it with your most confident picks at the top of the heap then bet money on that. Your next confident picks added at the second layer of the heap then also betting on that, and on and on it goes to your third, fourth or fifth layer depending on how you structure your parlays. So looking at the lines right now I'd prolly go... Ankalaev - Semelsberger - Maverick at 2.12 for 20 bucks Add: Peirera - Yadong - Dalcha at 8.15 for 5 bucks Add: Dober - Yussuf - Rountree at 35.78 for 2 bucks Add: Aldrich - Jones - Murzakanov at 247.41 for 1 USD Add: Jackson - Canneti at 1023.28 for 1 USD So that's a total of 29 USD outlay. It's like a fun lottery ticket. Lol. Edit: Doing this is prolly better after the weigh ins. Yup, best to wait for the last possible minute to bet on MMA. Actually, I can't remember many fights being canceled after a successful weigh-in, so anything after weigh-in should be A-OK. For the money you just outlined, that's not that much to just try it out and see how it works. It seems like a cool concept might even try it out for myself for shits and giggles. However, my overall track record on detrmaning winners is not all that good XD Yup it's just something fun to do while enjoying the event. Sometimes you just have to take some sort of action even if it's small. Makes it more exciting that way. Not that I think MMA is not exciting. I could watch all the matches even with out making a single bet... Couldn't say the same for football these days tbh. The football bug in me kinda left. I still follow it but not as much as I used to. I guess it'll just come back to me. Here are the weigh in.
