You just lose that excitement factor of betting on live events, and watching them. Unless, you don't check your bets or the news before watching the fights? Although, it's always nice to look at your betting slip, and see a few ticks, and it not being complete yet as that does get the excitement levels up.
It's true, I love betting on live events but I can't finds this available on Sportsbet for UFC fights, and I stopped using some other casinos that confiscated my coins. There is always some delay if you are watching score online, so you know if something happens before you see it in live stream If you guys know any other crypto casino that accepts live bets on UFC and MMA please tell me more about it.

Connor McGregor calling out Khabib over Khabib taking shots at him was something I didn’t really expect, but Connor wants to make it seem like Khabib retired to not have to fight him again. I’d personally love to see them run it back again, but I’d rather see McGregor fight a striker than a grappler. I want to see another one of those knockout punches not more tapping. I really hope we get to see McGregor in the octagon again in the next 8 months.
Conor seems to be gearing up towards a fight, and he did suffer a pretty nasty break. I expect we will see him, but hopefully it'll be someone outside the top five, and a striker as you say. He's still exciting, and tagged Poirier multiple times in both fights, and hurt Poirier. So, he's still dangerous he just hasn't got that same fear factor that he once did. Not sure what the angle is with Khabib's little dig towards Conor. Also, thought Conor's response was a little deluded, and a bit nasty talking about his father's dream considering what happened.

Looking at how big Connor (bulking up) is nowadays, I wonder which division he will be fighting next. As big as his name, I don't think Connor will drain himself down to lightweight again. I doubt an inactive Connor can beat any welterweights ranked 6 to 10. Michael Chandler keeps calling out Connor up to now despite losing his last fight. Maybe Dana White can arrange a welterweight match-up between the 2. It's still a big fight and a winnable fight for Connor as well if he trains early and hard. The weight can probably make this fight 50/50 or so.

Rafael dos Anjos vs. Bryan Barberena 170 lbs
That is strange fight imho. RDA is a lightweight, currently on top7 position. Bryan Barberena is a welterweight and is unranked. I dont understand RDA future plans. This is not the first time he RDA jumping from one division to another. Getting a higher position in top of lightweight is harder (Dariush only looks less stronger than others, but he is a series of wins, he is probably a next challenger for a title fight) than in welterweight, so RDA decided to fight in welterweight, and if he looses, he wont loose positions in top (as he is not in top15 of welterweight). Such a simple strategy to look better than really is. For real, why RDA is top7 in lightweight with such a record? His record looks more like a zebra (win-lose-win-lose-win...)

And it is going to be really challenging for both of them to cut weight. Even if they decide to move ahead with it, it will be a serious weight cut. It is deemed too risky for the health of both of them. And another thing is that Connor is actually not a proficient fighter anymore. He has just emerged as a keyboard warrior taking on people on Twitter.

Dos Anjos fought in 170 more than 5 times after having two straight losses at 155. He then moved down to 155 but then looks like he's moving back up again after losing to Rafael Fiziev. As for his future plans, there's none. He's prolly fighting to finish off his contract before retiring from the UFC. He's almost 40 years old and he prolly wants to fight in 170 so he wouldn't have to go through a gruelling weight cut. I think he wins vs Barbarena in a three rounder but he's now susceptible of getting KO'd after Fiziev.

Aw, I didn't mean that to sound like it was going to be a Conor vs Khabib fight I think that boat has sailed a very long time ago. However, I do think Conor is gearing towards a fight. I'm not sure who that is going to be against, and I certainly hope it wouldn't be Islam that just doesn't make much sense, like I said I hope it's someone outside the top five, and hopefully not a wrestler. I want to see Conor win again, it'll be great for the sport, and the division.

But I also don't think it is actually going to happen, as much as I want this to happen. Yes, it will take a long time for both of them to get into fighting shape. Both of them are way above 145 pounds right now. And I don't think Khabib is coming back out of retirement if there is not anything achievable for Khabib. He is obviously not going to do this for money. unless obviously, they give him 100 million or more than that. But I will also say that the chances of this fight happening is not null either.

Probably, and I'm sure the UFC would be up for it, and have probably already had talks about it. Khabib seems a man of morals though, he's pretty dead set on keeping his promise to his mother's after his father's death. So, I don't expect it to happen for that reason. It's certainly not about money for Khabib, and I'm not sure what could convince him. Maybe, his mother giving him permission, but I can't see that happening any time soon.

Everyone just jump in when they saw thier brother have had success in UFC. The one that's almost like a joke, it could have been made up but the video of Khabib wrestling with a bear is like Russians are training for UFC on a daily basis. There is always the anticipation to learn who can beat Khabib though which is why there is always an expectation of when is he going to make a comeback fight.

I really hope we get to see McGregor in the octagon again in the next 8 months.
What if Conor McGregor trained his grappling? that would be interesting, or he taught to harden his takedown defense, that would be awesome to watch, but I highly doubt Khabib Nurmagomenodov would care at all, just like what Islam Makhachev has shown the strength to his grappling then what ever his opponent would trained when it comes to wrestling and grappling when it is near the fence Nurmagomenodov would surely prevail, Conor seems to be gearing up towards a fight, and he did suffer a pretty nasty break. I expect we will see him, but hopefully it'll be someone outside the top five, and a striker as you say. He's still exciting, and tagged Poirier multiple times in both fights, and hurt Poirier. So, he's still dangerous he just hasn't got that same fear factor that he once did.

It could be some old grudge. but I really don't know know what happen back then they can be very fatal in what they do Conor McGregor crashing Khabib's bus, and Khabib going outside the octagon to go bust some of McGregor's minions, in his way, surely they can go at it again, but in what Conor has said over this matter, I really think Khabib Nurmagomedov will not answer it with seriousness because he already knew that he already beaten the Irish man after all,

Rafael dos Anjos vs. Bryan Barberena 170 lbs
That is strange fight imho. RDA is a lightweight, currently on top7 position. Bryan Barberena is a welterweight and is unranked. I dont understand RDA future plans. This is not the first time he RDA jumping from one division to another. Getting a higher position in top of lightweight is harder (Dariush only looks less stronger than others, but he is a series of wins, he is probably a next challenger for a title fight) than in welterweight, so RDA decided to fight in welterweight, and if he looses, he wont loose positions in top (as he is not in top15 of welterweight). Such a simple strategy to look better than really is. For real, why RDA is top7 in lightweight with such a record? His record looks more like a zebra (win-lose-win-lose-win...) Dos Anjos fought in 170 more than 5 times after having two straight losses at 155. He then moved down to 155 but then looks like he's moving back up again after losing to Rafael Fiziev. As for his future plans, there's none. He's prolly fighting to finish off his contract before retiring from the UFC. He's almost 40 years old and he prolly wants to fight in 170 so he wouldn't have to go through a gruelling weight cut. I think he wins vs Barbarena in a three rounder but he's now susceptible of getting KO'd after Fiziev. I dont think that RDA is planning to retire. He has fought big names. No matter of the fights results, people remember him, so I think he will stay in UFC. Or better say UFC will keep him to sell tickets. He would be sort of a gate keeper. He will be like Clay Guida, that fights in prelims. No matter that he has a bad record and usually losses than wins, no matter that he is 40, UFC keep him for ages.

All good fighters, but aren't on the level of Khabib. That might change with experience, but Khabib was a special fighter, not just in the UFC he has quite the background in Sambo, and I believe was also undefeated in that also off the top of my head. I'm not looking for a next Khabib though, he's a outlier you don't get many undefeated fighters that dominate in such a way. Jon Jones would be the other which I'm hearing rumours of him having a fight in the new year. Has to be Ngannou for me, but I know he had surgery on his knees, so not sure if he'll be ready.

Maybe he's not retiring per se but I don't think he'll be given another contract by the UFC once his current deal runs out. That explains the move up to 170 and weird match up vs Barbarena. He's just prolly taking the first available offer given to him and get it over with. Anyway, here's a match to remind everybody what happened between these two and why there's a rematch. If Teixeira didn't get tired, he would've def won the match and be one of the oldest guys to win a belt in the UFC. I was rooting for Prochazka and had him in my parlays but would've been also happy if Teixeira won. Would've loved to see it.

I wondered why it was rather quiet in here, and now the talk about Conor, and Khabib makes sense . No event this weekend, which now I've got to figure out what I'm going to do, as I wasn't anticipating it. I was watching some tape on some of the fighters too in anticipation. I guess I'll have to wait a week to get my predictions out . I know there's some boxing going on, and some other non UFC MMA events so I'll probably try to tune in on some of them. The main event is a wild one for next week though, I'm a little scared for Wonderboy I don't want to see him get knocked out. He's one of my favourite fighters.

~ It could be some old grudge. but I really don't know know what happen back then they can be very fatal in what they do Conor McGregor crashing Khabib's bus, and Khabib going outside the octagon to go bust some of McGregor's minions Since you touched this topic, the incident happened because Artem Lobov was cornered by Khabib because he was talking shit about him in an interview he gave to a Russian channel and the anti climax is that Artem Lobov is suing Conor McGregor claiming that he needs to pay him millions because he claims was a co owner in his proper 12 whiskey . ~ All good fighters, but aren't on the level of Khabib. That might change with experience, but Khabib was a special fighter, not just in the UFC he has quite the background in Sambo, and I believe was also undefeated in that also off the top of my head.
I'm not looking for a next Khabib though, he's a outlier you don't get many undefeated fighters that dominate in such a way. Jon Jones would be the other which I'm hearing rumours of him having a fight in the new year. Has to be Ngannou for me, but I know he had surgery on his knees, so not sure if he'll be ready.
Andrew Tate said it best, you cannot defeat someone like Khabib who trains allah trains allah trains allah kind of person . Referring to his dedication of just training and prayers and no other distraction. It is official Jon Jones is coming back for UFC 285 on March 5. The opponent is most probably Francis Ngannou and if he is not available then there will be an interim belt with either Ciryl Gane or Curtis Blaydes.

After I started martial arts, I started to follow UFC for about 2 seasons. I've watched a few old Jon Jones fights, this guy fights really smooth, was he always heavyweight? I also know that he banned from the UFC because of doping steroids, if that's not true, can you tell me why you left because he's younger. As for the fight on March 5, I saw on social media that they were posterizing the three most troublesome heavyweight names alongside Jon Jones today. I think he can easily beat Curtis Blaydes. But it's very difficult with Francis and Gane. If he starts with Blaydes and beats him, he will have made a great comeback.

If that's the case, I'm really hoping it's Francis Ngannou. I don't fancy seeing Bladyes getting knocked out, as I just don't think he could beat Jones. That's assuming that Jones is still at his best. He's at a decent amount of time off, and he isn't getting any younger. Although, he's just got such raw talent that I just don't think Curtis would fare well. Gane could work. Although, I just feel Jones takes him down, and beats him. I wasn't impressed with his wrestling against a compromised Francis Ngannou. Francis probably does get beat honestly. However, he's got that power to worry Jones enough. Jon is just so quick, and throws up a lot of problems I'm not confident of many guys going against him. I'd love to see Curtis knock him out if it did mean those two fighting.

Connor McGregor calling out Khabib over Khabib taking shots at him was something I didn’t really expect, but Connor wants to make it seem like Khabib retired to not have to fight him again. I’d personally love to see them run it back again, but I’d rather see McGregor fight a striker than a grappler. I want to see another one of those knockout punches not more tapping. I really hope we get to see McGregor in the octagon again in the next 8 months. Conor seems to be gearing up towards a fight, and he did suffer a pretty nasty break. I expect we will see him, but hopefully it'll be someone outside the top five, and a striker as you say. He's still exciting, and tagged Poirier multiple times in both fights, and hurt Poirier. So, he's still dangerous he just hasn't got that same fear factor that he once did. Not sure what the angle is with Khabib's little dig towards Conor. Also, thought Conor's response was a little deluded, and a bit nasty talking about his father's dream considering what happened. Looking at how big Connor (bulking up) is nowadays, I wonder which division he will be fighting next. As big as his name, I don't think Connor will drain himself down to lightweight again. I doubt an inactive Connor can beat any welterweights ranked 6 to 10. Michael Chandler keeps calling out Connor up to now despite losing his last fight. Maybe Dana White can arrange a welterweight match-up between the 2. It's still a big fight and a winnable fight for Connor as well if he trains early and hard. The weight can probably make this fight 50/50 or so. I think Connor is indeed gearing up towards a fight and obviously it won’t be with Khabib who is retired and likely not in top tier fighting shape. For me though there’s the question of when Connor will actually fight again. He hasn’t been getting drug tested which is why he’s filming for a movie and looking like Rambo. I think when he does finally announce a fight, he’ll probably have to do it 6 months out and get on a drug testing program.
