But Usman was also taking safety precautions and avoiding a possible knockout again.

Usman should be more different from their previous fight. Instead, he was still working as a first number, but avoided most of risky situations. In general that fight was really boring. Previous fights in card were more exciting. Usman failed to give 200% of him. Edwards managed to get 1 point deduction, fought dirty and still won. That shows how bad Usman was that evening.

Lol.  I thought I'd win 4 of my lottery tickets until Fiziev sht the pie.

You would laugh when you find out that in that fight Gaethje has secured his first takedown in UFC 6 years in UFC, 10 fights, NCAA wrestler, made first takedown

The UFC fight night in this week where the main event is Marlon Vera vs Cory Sandhagen, I think Vera should win this fight because Sandhagen was lose 2 from 3 of his recent fights, Sandhagen doesn't have something special to beat Vera. All of Vera losses is by decision, so I doubt Sandhagen might win via KO.

But strangely Vera is the underdog in this fight, obviously I will bet Vera.

I need to see round 2 of Fiziev vs Gaethje again.

My initial thoughts are Fiziev won round 1 and 2. While Gaethje won round 3.

When Gaethje first fought in the UFC, he impressively defeated Michael Johnson. In post fight interview, Gaethje demanded to meet his equal (believing he had no equal).

After Gaethje lost to Khabib (finally meeting his equal) he began blaming opponents using steroids and all types of things for his losses. When there were much better and more credible reasons for him losing. Like lack of jiu jitsu.

Its disappointing how Gaethje mindset shifted to become very negative when he began facing challenges and adversity. Gaethje entered the UFC with an invincible spirit. It is sad to see that change.

[TopTort777]

Recently some changes have occured in such strange thing called pound for pound rating. Kamaru Usman, that used to lead that rating now has dropped to 8th place. Even Aljo is better than Usman Usman needs an easy next fight to recover his reputation. To bad, as a former champ and top fighter, UFC wont give him an easy next fight.
 
You know how I dont like that top, but now it looks even weirder than ever. Hope I dont see Jon Jones there for next few years if he stays inactive again. Wonder how much time will pass until Jones performs some crap.

UFC Fight Night: Vera vs. Sandhagen



Main card (ESPN+)
Bantamweight: Marlon Vera vs. Cory Sandhagen            
Women's Bantamweight: Holly Holm vs. Yana Santos            
Women's Flyweight: Andrea Lee vs. Maycee Barber            
            
Preliminary card (ESPN / ESPN+)
Women's Bantamweight: Hailey Cowan vs. Tamires Vidal

For me, for this event, I am really looking forward to Marlon Vera becoming the champion, but surely he will be having a hard time against the front door towards the belt and that is Merab "The Machine" Dvalishvili that insane 48 takedowns on Petr Yan was really insane and he has put a lot of cardio to execute it, for sure Merab will not fight Aljamain Sterling because of their friendship, but for sure Marlon "Chito" Vera will win against Cory Sandhagen,

Yup, 135 is getting pretty interesting now.  And Dvalishvili doesn't have to be in any pressure just yet as his team mate Aljamain Sterling is gonna fight Henry Cejudo next.  And with how good Cejudo's team is, he could win the belt from Sterling even after the long pay off.  I guess that sets up Dvalishvili to get a title shot next.

Anyway I don't think I'll be making greasy parlays and lottery tickets this weekend.  I'll just keep it simple and have a couple of bets.  Kape - Landwher parlay and a shot at the underdog spot Chito Vera.

Previous fights in card were more exciting. Usman failed to give 200% of him. Edwards managed to get 1 point deduction, fought dirty and still won. That shows how bad Usman was that evening.

Looking at Kamaru Usman in his 2nd fight with Leon Edwards and comparing it with their 3rd fight, I was shocked that Kamaru Usman is performing pretty much great in their 2nd fight, I think Leon Edwards is just performing normally, but the real problem is Kamaru Usman was the one that is not performing perfectly that night, well there are a lot of experts that are saying that Kamaru Usman surely has a health issue that he should have rested a year before getting another fight he is not well rested, you can really see the trauma in Kamaru Usman, even though he would not show it emotionally you will see it from the reaction he was covering his head the whole time so much afraid of that Kick Leon Edwards threw at him, while not covering his body this really cause him he is really afraid of Leon Edwards kick he is definitely traumatized,

The UFC fight night in this week where the main event is Marlon Vera vs Cory Sandhagen, I think Vera should win this fight because Sandhagen was lose 2 from 3 of his recent fights, Sandhagen doesn't have something special to beat Vera. All of Vera losses is by decision, so I doubt Sandhagen might win via KO.

But strangely Vera is the underdog in this fight, obviously I will bet Vera.

If Marlon Vera is the underdog in this fight I will definitely go to put my bet on him Marlon Vera to everybody that doesn't know is a technical fighter, he is getting the 1st round as a setup to make him dominant with this fight, I think all doubters of Marlon Vera doesn't really bother him 1 bit, I think that uniqueness from Vera will definitely make him going to win this fight, that nasty kicks will surely surprise Sandhagen,

Yup, 135 is getting pretty interesting now.  And Dvalishvili doesn't have to be in any pressure just yet as his team mate Aljamain Sterling is gonna fight Henry Cejudo next.  And with how good Cejudo's team is, he could win the belt from Sterling even after the long pay off.  I guess that sets up Dvalishvili to get a title shot next.

Anyway I don't think I'll be making greasy parlays and lottery tickets this weekend.  I'll just keep it simple and have a couple of bets.  Kape - Landwher parlay and a shot at the underdog spot Chito Vera.

For sure Henry Cejudo will win this just the height and reach advantage of Aljamain Sterling can also prevail in their fight, but I am still getting some data into Henry Cejudo, previous and recent fights, and training aswell, and will surely come back with a purpose, again in the UFC,

Dvalishvili can be very relaxed and when the time is right he will easily take that belt. I'm guessing that Sterling loses the belt to someone else and takes it from him. If you don't have a belt, I don't know how to get it. however, he deserves the title. I really felt that in his last match with Yan, no one would stop him at this weight. He really attacks like a pitbull and has no intention of letting go of his opponents. Bantamweight has become my favorite weight. An interesting card, I will look at the other matches as well.

This s one of the hardest UFC event for me to make predictions, and I am not sure about outcome of a single fight on this card.
Bookmakers made Cory Sandhagen a heavy favorite but I actually think Marlon Vera can surprise and win here and I would have this fight 50/50 or 55/45 most.
There are a lot of low odds traps on this event and I sure man of them will go in different direction.

Getting back on different topic, for anyone who is wondering why Kamaru Usman lost from Leon Edwards again, Francis Ngannou said that he was injured and didn't train properly.
I know he was supporting Usman and he was not happy when he lost that fight.

When someone won, many people either praise him or saying the scorecard was robbed. When someone lost, many people will respect him, bullying or disrespect or even more gave an excuse if he was injured.

So I wouldn't surprised to see Ngannou talk like that about Usman there's no evidence if he was injured and a reason about didn't train properly is clearly Usman's fault.

Hope all of you remember such funny guy as Paulo Costa. Hope that you remember how he did not like UFC and their contract, USADA, low payment and wanted to become a free agent. Few days ago that guy has signed a 4-fight contract with UFC How do you like that ? All of a sudden the payment UFC offered him suits him. I remember he was saying that he wants to earn like Jake Paul. Costa has mentioned, that UFC has offered him already two opponents: Chimaev (who he had conflict during Chimaev vs Diaz event) or Strickland.

Also, I have been skipping work and surfing the internet (as usually) and found that Justin Gaethjis every fight in UFC (except all title fights that he has lost) were fight or performance of the night. And he is holding a record of having most "of the night" rewards.

Cejudo is an agile athlete with outstanding wrestling skills, yes I had forgotten that was a good reminder lol.I remember the Cory Sandhagen vs Song match, I watched that match live. He was hitting his head like a sledgehammer with his elbows. Cory Sandhagen fights very effectively as Muah Thai, I like that side of him. I'm more interested in standing fights in this weight, it's really sharp. I think it will be a close fight, but with the referee's decision, the match will go to Cory.

For sure Henry Cejudo will win this just the height and reach advantage of Aljamain Sterling can also prevail in their fight, but I am still getting some data into Henry Cejudo, previous and recent fights, and training aswell, and will surely come back with a purpose, again in the UFC,

The advantage of Henry Cejudo is that he is a superior wrestler and Aljamain Sterling does have a wrestling based game plan which will negate and i am expecting this to be a stand up battle and Henry Cejudo has a fight IQ than the rest of the fighters as he really studies the tapes just like Jon Jones and finds the weakness of the opponents, but he is coming back after 3 years and the size difference is visible and hence curious to see how the fight will go.

 All of a sudden the payment UFC offered him suits him. I remember he was saying that he wants to earn like Jake Paul. Costa has mentioned, that UFC has offered him already two opponents: Chimaev (who he had conflict during Chimaev vs Diaz event) or Strickland.

Anyone playing hard ball with the UFC, they will be feeding tough fights and i wont be surprised if Khamzat Chimaev will be his next opponent and the winner fights for the title.

Also, I have been skipping work and surfing the internet (as usually) and found that Justin Gaethjis every fight in UFC (except all title fights that he has lost) were fight or performance of the night. And he is holding a record of having most "of the night" rewards.

Justin Gaethje won fight of the night and performance of the night or both in almost all of his fights in the UFC even when he lost the fights and only against Khabib Nurmagomedov he did not win anything because it was a complete domination by Khabib.

I also think that between Chimaev or Strickland, better opponent for Costa would be Chimaev. Imagine if he looses to Strickland, who is weaker than Chimaev, then what will be the reason to fight with Chimaev then? But I dont think that Costa will be having a title fight if he beats one of them. He, Vettori, Cannonier, Whittaker will be having one win and they are top5. He would have to fight against someone of them or Costa, before he would get another chance to fight for a title.

After that extreme 48 takedowns, I think I really like Merab Dvalishvili now, he surely deserves a title shot, and when Henry Cejudo beat Aljamain Sterling I think he can now make a move and take the belt for himself, I know they are friends and training partners but I guess Merab Dvalishvili wants the title for himself, and that is if Cejudo could take that belt off Sterling waist, but we surely don't know what Dvalishvili is really thinking so let's just wait what may happen,

This s one of the hardest UFC event for me to make predictions, and I am not sure about outcome of a single fight on this card.

Getting back on different topic, for anyone who is wondering why Kamaru Usman lost from Leon Edwards again, Francis Ngannou said that he was injured and didn't train properly.
I know he was supporting Usman and he was not happy when he lost that fight.

I will give you a little insight into what I think could happen in their fight Cory Sandhagen is a pretty much technical fighter but Marlon Vera is kind of the same, but with those unpredictable kicks I think he got the edge, and both have counter punches but for me, Marlon Vera is more durable and he is hard to hit clean but for sure this fight will be very slow on the 1st rounds but will eventually become explosive in the remaining of the rounds, so for me Chito Vera for me,

Kamaru Usman surely has some injuries I truly believe Francis Ngannou, Normally Usman needs to rest more than a year because he got knockdown badly by Leon Edwards that trauma in his head is still there as we can see Usman is heavily protecting his head not to get knockdown again, he is ready to go with a decision win against Leon Edwards but yeah Edwards was just tough for that,

[TopTort777]

They are friend only until big money appears or Merab will have huge ambitions to get a belt. UFC have lots of examples when true friends fought. Jon Jones and Rashad Evans, Covington and Masvidal. Former "friends till death" made bloody battles in octagon.

I dont think that CCC is able to take belt from Aljo. Cejudo is not Jones, he wont be same Cejudo after 3 year pause I think UFC plans to make Cejudo farewell fight and join hall of fame later. Merab probably gonna fight against O'Malley and UFC desire O'Malley to win. O'Malley looks more like a money bag for UFC.

[tokeweed]

For me, for this event, I am really looking forward to Marlon Vera becoming the champion, but surely he will be having a hard time against the front door towards the belt and that is Merab "The Machine" Dvalishvili that insane 48 takedowns on Petr Yan was really insane and he has put a lot of cardio to execute it, for sure Merab will not fight Aljamain Sterling because of their friendship, but for sure Marlon "Chito" Vera will win against Cory Sandhagen,

Yup, 135 is getting pretty interesting now.  And Dvalishvili doesn't have to be in any pressure just yet as his team mate Aljamain Sterling is gonna fight Henry Cejudo next.  And with how good Cejudo's team is, he could win the belt from Sterling even after the long pay off.  I guess that sets up Dvalishvili to get a title shot next.

Yup and depending on the outcome of his match vs Aljamain Sterling, word on the street is he wants to move up to 145 and go for the belt there vs Volk.  Cejudo prolly saw something in Volk's game and thinks he found a chink in the armor of some sort.  Dunno...  I mean why would he do it if he thinks Volk doesn't have a weakness.

Anyway, official weigh ins start in 30 minutes folks.  Have fun.

Vera vs Sandhagen Official Weigh In
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yN2oQ9A6NU

[Synchronice]

Well some say that Roman Dolidze was winning because he landed more strikes than Vettori but man Marvin Vettori really won this fight and if you would look closely into the match but yes Roman Dolidze has more power but Marvin Vettori is more technical, and either of the two doesn't come up with some grappling and have to to get on with the fight with striking, but yeah Dolidze doesn't have any variety going against Vettori while Marvin Vettori really has a good chin that can withstand your beating,

It was a very boring fight, really, none side was doing anything exceptional. This match was very near to draw but Vettori had 106 significant total strikes while Dolidze had 71 significant total strikes. It was very close match but I think Vettori deserved won.
Btw I don't understand how Vettori won the first round, Dvalishvili was more aggressive and active towards him.

After Gaethje lost to Khabib (finally meeting his equal) he began blaming opponents using steroids and all types of things for his losses. When there were much better and more credible reasons for him losing. Like lack of jiu jitsu.

Btw he admitted that Khabib is very, very strong. Let's be frankly, Khabib is the only guy that no one can beat, even on steroids or other performance enhancement drugs. He is a legend and it makes me very sad that he retired so early and quickly lost his physical shape.

[YuginKadoya]

They are friend only until big money appears or Merab will have huge ambitions to get a belt. UFC have lots of examples when true friends fought. Jon Jones and Rashad Evans, Covington and Masvidal. Former "friends till death" made bloody battles in octagon.

Merab probably gonna fight against O'Malley and UFC desire O'Malley to win. O'Malley looks more like a money bag for UFC.

I surely think Merab Dvalishvili is waiting for the right opportunity to strike and take Aljamain Sterling's belt, well I think the thing that is stopping him was the fact that they know each other so they know their ups and downs so weaknesses included that they could be used at each other, and I think Aljamain Sterling is now used to wrestling as I can see in his fight with Petr Yan,

and for Henry Cejudo their height difference will surely become a factor in their fight, I think the height advantage of Aljamain Sterling is what he used against Yan, and against Cejudo, even though Henry Cejudo has advanced wrestling skills, or maybe near-level Khabib Nurmagomedov, I think the Height advantage of Sterling could also be a factor for Cejudo Struggling against him,

It was a very boring fight, really, none side was doing anything exceptional. This match was very near to draw but Vettori had 106 significant total strikes while Dolidze had 71 significant total strikes. It was very close match but I think Vettori deserved won.
Btw I don't understand how Vettori won the first round, Dvalishvili was more aggressive and active towards him.

It was a close fight yeah and a boring one aswell, Marvin Vettori is not the kind of just aggressively throws strikes at his opponent he would tend to wait for that is why this fight is you can say normal for me it was not boring and not that exciting as well it was really an average fight because both fighters are just waiting for the other to throw something, that is why it looked boring for others,
