It was a great week. Let's keep it rolling!
A Lot Hit Last Week For US!
Brandan killed it with his PFL picks, Fury, and BKFC Picks, and Santino got it done on the UFC!
One of the biggest slips we saw was this one: $300 into $11,800! You can see some of the other slips here.
This Week’s Undercard Fight of the Week
Joanderson Brito vs Westin Wilson
This is a affair. Westin Wilson got in over my guy Bobby Moffet—go compare their records and see who is more deserving. That said, Westin is bad. Don’t you dare start comparing him to Wonderboy—don’t even call him a “poor man’s version” of Wonderboy. He’s the “Malibu’s Most Wanted” version of Wonderboy. He has a good lead high kick from southpaw stance, and he’s tall. The End.
Brito doesn’t have the world’s best cardio, but he shouldn’t need it in this one round affair. I think Brito will take his time to find his range and then blitz in with a barrage of strikes, leading with an overhand. If Wes is still standing, Brito gets the takedown, punches him, and finds the choke. The End. Good Night.
Now, I know Brito is -800 right now, but once the props come out and you get Brito inside the distance or even Brito by sub/ko (whichever you think lands), you’ll get better odds.
Landmine of the week
The fight that should scare me this week is Lipski vs Gatto as we remember the JJ Aldrich fight, right? But it’s not. This week I worry about the Max Griffin fight vs Michael Morales. Morales is a 2-1 favorite, and he is really good, once he gets hit and gets mad and starts going ballistic. But before that, he’s a little too relaxed in there. He let’s his opponent choose where the fight goes and allows them to dictate the fight. Against a guy like Griffin, that could bite him in the ass, as Griffin is not bad anywhere and does a really good job of moving laterally on the outside and then blitzing in with punches on his terms. I’m not saying Griffin wins (need to finish taping this), but I think this is a fight that could blow up some parlays.
