UFC Fight Night & Main Event: Sportsbet.io Predictions & discussion

[OgNasty]

Nobody seems to care about the fight between former UFC fighters Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal. I think they’re going to box here shortly (hope I didn’t already miss it) and I can’t find anyone talking about it. I guess that shows the event isn’t going to be a huge success… I think after the performance with Jake Paul, I might have to see if I can still bet against Nate Diaz.

Edit: The Masvidal bet didn't have good enough odds so I parlayed it with a bet for Trump to win the election.

Yeah Merab is at bantamweight so it must of been Suga Sean O'Malley who was at this weightclass last I checked.
But with fighters wanting to change weightclass like it's a fad now (aren't fighters trying to switch to Featherweight just to try and fight Topuria in Spain?) I wouldn't be surprised to see somebody wanting to beef up to lightweight to square off against Paddy in the future.
They are going to try and grab as many headlines as their partnered company the WWE so we could possibly see these weightclasses merging into fights for the future just for the storyline. Look at the match makers trying to get Poatan to fight Jones. Lightheavyweight against a Heavyweight? Don't say it couldn't happen.

Khamzat Chimaev was caught promoting a sh*tcoin called SMASH and which had rug pulled all their holders recently.

Now it seems it has costed him a title shot according to what Dana White has said about this latest incident:
https://www.essentiallysports.com/ufc-mma-news-khamzat-chimaev-has-created-hard-feelings-with-dana-white-and-ufc-as-blunder-costs-title-shot-dreams-for-undefeated-star

When it comes to huge paydays, anything can happen like Poatan vs Jones. I think users are already talking back and forth with this on x.com. Fighters want to fight a top fighter to get a shot at the title. Right now though there is no reason to ask Paddy to fight him, he doesn't rank.

Merab vs Suga is possible but seems like an easy pick.
Tuporia vs Holloway is gonna be good. But UFC might want I'm to defend his title first before fighting BMF.

Anyway, I don't think Khamzat understands this scam. Yes, it's a classic rug pull but this guy I think doesn't even understand how those wallets are linked. Khamzat is just dragged into this since he also promoted the token.

If Pereira vs Jones happens , that will most likely be the greatest fight of UFC in the last decade or even of all time right ? The internet are basically begging for this fight to happen and Dana will try anything he can to make it possible because it's been a while since we had blockbuster fight in UFC that will attract the entire planet to watch the fight. However , we all know how Jon Jones is right ? this dude basically fight when he wants and against who wants so it really hard to book him into fight nowadays.

Jones was cancelled back in November of last year for UFC 295 with Stipe and since then he had been ducking fights.
But now we have a date setup, so let's see if this time he will hold up and actually fight this time:
https://www.lowkickmma.com/stipe-miocic-says-jon-jones-is-beatable-ufc-309

As for Khamzat, I think he knew exactly what he was getting into, just like all those other celebrity crypto scams that have had a surge lately with Chris Derulo all the way to Iggy Azalea.
You can not tell me they did not know what they were putting their reputations on the line for. These are endorsements and as with any entertainers in the performance industry, they have agents they must put these sponsorships across before accepting any sort of payments from or they could get sued.

More about these type of cryptoscams can be discussed here on a thread I put up about how the SEC goes after them and successfully took down several of these celebrities by suing them a few years ago:

@OgNasty
This is a UFC thread so obviously we are not going to be talking much about boxing. But since Nate was in the UFC I can say good for him with the win last night.
Jorge Masvidal is the chair and founder of an MMA organization known as Gamebred Bareknuckle and actually watched a full event when they were Miami offered on youtube.
But UFC still is the only game in town when it comes to anything MMA and will continue to only discuss about this on the thread as per the title in the subject.

That's the worse part being a celeb and endorsing some stuff they know nothing about and getting dragged into a scam, they can't get away by just saying they know nothing about it.  Kim Kardashian I think was one who also got into one and SEC taught her a lesson.

Jones wouldn't let go of that Stipe fight like it was his obsession with that old man. There is already an interim champ Tom but Dana didn't give this a chance and put Stipe to fight when we already knew Stipe wouldn't last a round.

It appears that this is another underestimation by the sportsbooks hehehe. If everyone can remember Rose's fight vs. Carla Esparza, Rose was not going near Carla because Rose was very much scared of Carla's takedowns. I predict that this will be a similar fight where Rose will avoid Tracy for the whole fight and the judges will consider this an advantage for Tracy in the score. The winner will be Tracy and this will be with a split decision. She is also a sexy fighting kitten hehehehehehe.

It's what they said so. Maybe Rose has to keep this fight standing then. She has to invoke his upset fighting skill she has been defeating top fighters in the rank in the most unexpected way, especially Zhang.

It's a fair speculation that the fight will end in UD. Most probably so based on Tracy's record. I wouldn't any in this card though. Dana is likely just putting up this event for the sake of there being something to watch.

[danherbias07]

Tracy Cortez is on a hot winning spree although she needs to be careful against Namajunas as that lady has some firepower in her kicks and a good submission skill too. It feels like a long time ago but I can still remember that head kick that she did against Weili Zhang in their first fight, it ended the fight so fast in Round 1. That fight gave me the goosebumps.

The face of Joe Rogan when Namajunas hit Weili with the head kick and gained the strawweight belt.

It was damn strong that Weili cannot accept her defeat and then she realizes it all after a minute of rest. She was literally out while still awake.

Tracy will have to be careful with those because Namajunas has a lot of skill up in his sleeve. She might be the one that will stop her winning streak.

[rdbase]

Having believed in Thug Rose's skill for some long, I had separated fantasy from reality since her last couple of fights really stunk.
Haven't watched a Tracey Cortez fight as I usually zone out for the women's flyweight division when they come up while watching these fight nights.
But will start up the old UFC Fight Pass this week and do a search and scan her fights in anticipation for this upcoming main event.
Some notable names on this card. So this Denver card might not be that bad with Drew Dober and Gabriel Bonfim showing up on it.

What is this upset you are talking about for this fight? Thug Rose is the favorite to get the victory for this heheehe. If there is an upset skill that should be used, it should be from the sexy Tracy hehehe.

Also, all of the events that uncle Dana has organized are always there to give the fans something to watch, however, in the UFC there is also something called rankings eheheh. Uncle Dana cannot create all events to be from the high rankings, this would be headshaking.

Didn't look at the odds. Many users think Tracy will win the fight and I thought Rose was the underdog. She's always the underdog in many of her fights and Tracy has few loss than hers.

UFC does shaft some fighters even Rose didn't get the opportunity to fight the higher rank. Say Rose vs Shevchenko, which if she wins, she could get a title shot. But even Manon Fiorot isn't getting that fight either. Dana saves their fight in the country they are residing in, if the fight will be in UK for example I guess they can invite Manon Fiorot from France. But her being a champ, is something else.

I believe it will become a trend that when a champion defends his belt a few times, he increases or decreases his weight to try to fight another champion. The categories become very boring even for the fighters.

Well it seems Stipe Miocic is not really concerning himself with the hold up by Jones in the division and if you had followed him lately, has been living his life the best he can and enjoying himself doing it!

I am in agreement to the bettors who predict that sexy Tracy might win, the reason is also provided. This is why I mentioned that the sportsbooks have underestimated her hehehe.

I reckon that if you know the friendship between Rose and Valentina, you would assume that one of them will never sign the contract. It is also not true that Rose never fought anyone from high rank. This is head shaking because she was strawweight champion! If you are arguing on why she was not given an opponent with high rank in flyweight, this is also headshaking because she fought Fiorot who is top 5 flyweight in the UFC heehhe.

Maybe some throwback will help those who are bored of waiting.
You can watch this. It's old school.

Dustin Poirier versus Michael Chandler

Why did I share it?
Because a heat is building up and maybe Daddy Dana can use one and put Dustin against him because he said he was itching to get back after he told at UFC 302 that "This might be it.".

https://mmajunkie.usatoday.com/2024/07/ufc-news-dustin-poirier-opinion-michael-chandler-not-one-of-us
Dustin Poirier goes off on Michael Chandler: 'You're not one of us'

https://x.com/MikeChandlerMMA/status/1807938023780503898

“Who the f*ck is ‘we?'” Poirier said on The MMA Hour. “You just got here, buddy. You’re not one of us. You’re not ‘we.’ I’ve been here. ‘We’re good.’ Who’s we? Welcome to the UFC, dude. You’ve got one win in the UFC.

“He’s not one of us. I’ve been cutting my teeth in the UFC since January of 2011. He just got here. Who is we? He’s speaking for the lightweight division? Muscle Milk Mike needs to chill.”

Dustin is just 35 years old but he is worried about the brain damage UFC may cause to him which is the reason why he might retire. Who knows? He might accept one more just to show how great he is just like how he survived Islam until Round 5.

[Pumared]

What are your predictions for the next card? I'm completely lost when it comes to the fighters and the main fight. I don't think I'll be betting on it for that reason. Do you have any tips for me?

What I mean is Fiorot didn't get to fight someone to get a title shot. She remains as is.  Rose and Valentina are friends? Good for them.

When Rose lost against Esparza, Foirot fought Rose and. Manon Fiorot by now should be fighting a title shot already, I think this is still not given consideration it has almost a year already. But then this is women's division. Somewhat very different when events are fighting men.

[bbc.reporter]

@cabron. This is making it appear that you do not follow this sport very much closely. Manon Fiorot has fought Erin Blanchfield and she has become no.2 in her division's ranking after Alexa Grasso who is the champion and Valentina Shevchenko who is no.1. I am quite certain that Fiorot will be given the next chance to fight for her division's championship after Grasso vs. Shevchenko trilogy.

Apparently, that's true. It's not for everyone and MMA is hard to follow especially because I just watch them on TV. And TV is the easiest to waste time, most of the stuff I watch is just politics in my country and wars in different parts of the world. UFC is probably the last on my list to watch. I can only see news when the feed of Bisping and Sonnen appears on my phone.

Most MMA channels don't talk about these women in UFC as well. I checked Foirot's wiki 7-0 and it's as impressive as Cortez but they both haven't fought a title shot in UFC.

Dana White hates when fighters do that.
Whenever one says they won't ever want to schedule a bout due them being friends that just completely pisses the CEO off and not a smart move to make when you are an employee of said company.
Just look what went on with Aljo and Merab when they were jawing with Suga Show many months ago.
Sterling saying he won't want to fight Merab since they are friends?!
Complete and utter bullsh*t if I ever did see in my life of this happening in a sport.

Fighters being friends and not fighting kills the event that Dana would want to hype. He wants fighters to troll each other to sell more tickets, if the fight doesn't make sold-out tickets that's bad news. So it's true Dana likes Conor trash-talking because he can sell to fill the Apex.

3 days before the event they added Evan Elder vs Darrius Flowers at 170, based on their records both are not performing well in UFC. But yup brave souls. Probably the last fight for the loser between the two.

And Cortez cuts her hair for the weight yet she grabs the hair while they measure her. But it helped    I'd skip the event but I will watch.

[rdbase]

^^
Didn't know Elder/Flowers were asked to come in on just on three days notice.
Maybe they didn't have enough fighters on the card so they needed this one bout to fill it out more to make the alotted time within their contractual admittance to the networks.
Thanks for that info @cabron

The Ball Arena even is just under way and it should be a sizzler in the middle of summer.
