For me, I would bet on Dern to win it, and I am going to watch the fight aswell, I am pretty much curious about Yan Xiaonan aswell and she might get a surprise win but I am still going with Dern, And I am always forgetting to get my picks for the Multibet master maybe I will put mine later,

Whoa! Alex Pereira's balance was insane, is that legit to use in the actual fight? and after seeing that I am now hearing Adesanya saying (Izzy: "Trust me I'm gonna put him on skates this time") now he is on literal skates, Got to admit this is truly remarkable I don't know we can use that thing on training, man I bet Izzy's going to surpass this by showing his own training regimen,


Pretty much we could be surprised by Yan if she can pull this by feat and if she can defend those takedowns, Dern could launch, but for me, I am still going with Mackenzie Dern, but I am Intrigue about Yan Xiaonan on what she can do inside the octagon against Dern, but for me, I still go with Dern but I am curious in what Xiaonan can do, I will give my brief explaining and pick on this maybe tomorrow,

Yan is defintely the value bet here, and I think she might just pull it off as well. Mainly, because she's a volume fighter, but also quite strong on the grappling. She's quite big in there compared to most of her opponents too, and I'm not sure if Dern's going to struggle with that. I've doubted Dern before though, and she's pulled it off. I think she might have the advantage on the ground, where as I'd actually fancy Yan on the feet.

I might put a small bet on Yan just because of the value of it.

I made my early prediction on Dern to win in Sportsbet Multi Master Challenge, but more I think about this fight more I have a feeling Xiaonan Yan could make a surprise win.
I won't watch this even live and I am not to excited to watch main event, but I just saw very interesting training by Alex Pereira in his preparation for Adesanya fight.
Is someone going to need some kind of wheels in that fight?

For me, if Chito Vera and Petr Yan would fight I'd say I will choose Marlon Chito Vera, particularly the Marlon Vera now is more level up than Petr Yan, I am really disappointed in Yan when he lost to Sterling he was dominating on their 1st fight but fight now as you have said it was a close one, it seems the hype for Yan is derailed there are a lot of Hype for him on their Rematch it's like Aljamain Sterling have stepped up while he was just left behind, he doesn't expect for Aljamain Sterling to be this good but for me I want Marlon Vera to be champion,


Well, I will still watch the Dern VS Yan fight, I really want to see the fighting kitten Mackenzie Dern for me it is an insatiable fight to watch,

I really don't trust Aleksei Oleinik as well but if he can still fight despite his age, for me I would surely go with a bet, for Aleksei Oleinik but I am having my doubts if he can still fight, at 45 years of age versus a 39 years old Ilir Latifi, if Aleksei Oleinik can have a submission win of Latifi, then he could win this but for me, I would still go for Aleksei Oleinik despite having doubts if he can still fight despite his age, but we can not judge him and he surely knowns more than ever if he can not fight anymore, but he surely loves to fight so give it to him,

Latifi is not a teenager also Besides, all these muscles require tons is oxygen. Despite Latifis huge neck muscles, if Oleinik wins, I think it will be somehow connected with neck. If not cutting off the oxygen (any kind of choke), then it is going to be a variation of a neck crack.

^  Yup.  I usually just do my lottery ticket for most matches in Fight Night events and just bet for outcomes I'm most confident in. 

Oh October 22 is gonna be lit!  All great match ups from top to bottom so it's totally worth it to pay for the PPV.  Even the next event after this weekend's event have lots of good match ups.

And I don't think Oleinik will use his signature move against Latifi.  Look at Latifi's neck!  It's like he has no neck.  Lmaooo.  I slightly lean Latifi tho.  Just can't trust Oleinik because of his age.

I would suggest to save money from betting on this event and an event that comes after that, wait till October 22 and go all-in with bets, snack and booze As I have already counted 8 fights that I am definitely gonna watch.

I think I am gonna skip Dern vs Yan event, and only watch Oleinik vs Latifi replay, just to check what kind of submission "uncle Lyosha" (hit listen on Russian) will use this time. But I am always open to watching the fight you point for me. Dont know about main event - girls seems to be on high position in top, probably gonna be interesting fight, but...

Dunno about that.  I mean yeah Xiaonan Yan is prolly the steadier fighter and she's the better striker for sure but Dern prolly has learned a lot from her match vs Marina Rodriguez who is a better striker than Xiaonan Yan imho...  As for my confidence level for Dern, it has lowered a bit cos of your post and Welsh's post.  Lol.  I would've slotted her at the top of my lottery ticket.  

Anyway it looks like we're having another week off after this weekend's event.  But the next event is gonna be reeeeaally good for a Fight Night.  Check it out!

Even the low level match ups are bangers.  Todorovic vs Jordan Wright?  Sign me up!  

Here's the Multi Master.

UFC Fight Night 211 - Multi Master Challenge
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/sportsbetio-ufc-fight-night-211-multi-master-challenge-saturday-5414999

O'Malley vs Vera would be a better match up imho. I think Petr Yan is a hard nut to crack for Sean. I would say that O'Malley is practically having a title fight this time. No, I am not trying to say that Yan is better than Sterling, and their second fight was close, and if not that illegal knee, Yan would still be a champ, no. Yan and Sterling had a very close fight, that is all. O'Malley is about to face right hand of the last boss Top1 vs Top12. Seems unfair to me. I think O'Malley should first had a win over Vera, and only then face Yan.

I'm thinking that Dern could get beat this weekend, and will be one of the pie shitters as tokeweed often calls them. I like Dern, but I'm just not confident in picking her for this event. She's got good BJJ, and a decent stand up. I'm just not feeling the odds. I'm not even sure if it's worth betting on the fight going the distance due to her threat on the ground.

Also, I can't put another bet on Brendan Allen, as he let me down massively the last time I backed him, and he looked awful too. Those are my early thoughts, I'll get my predictions out closer to even as usual. Although, I do think this could be a tough event to pick so might avoid it on the betting front.

Perfect opportunity to bet on underdogs is upcoming UFC event, with Mackenzie Dern vs Xiaonan Yan.
I know Dern is a favorite to win but odds are very low on her, and there is amazing value betting on Yan despite she lost her last two fights.
Even better chance is for events like Oliveira vs Makhachev and Adesanya vs Pereira, and I can't wait to see that one.

UFC is the most biggest and popular MMA event, this make the fighters on UFC are best of the best. That's why in UFC it's hard to beat the champion, because he's actually become the best fighter in the world. Unlike Bellator, the champion doesn't actually become the best in the whole MMA event. If he/she fight against the UFC champion, I believe UFC champion will win.

I think woman fight are have bigger chance for underdog pull an upset against the favorite.

Yeah, at every event there's a like a couple of underdogs or maybe three that goes through and wins a bet.  But the last event is somewhat unusual especially for a Bellator event.  There were like 5 or 6 underdogs that went through and won.  That's pretty unusual for a UFC event too if that happens.

Overall, MMA markets are the best for finding value in underdogs these days imo.  And that's even after the books got sharper through the years.

I got a feeling that he is not serious in what he is saying I really just got a strong feeling that just posting it is not really his last and if he doesn't officially say it to the public and to the UFC, then this is just a kind of prank or a stunt to get someone's attention, but if we aren't so sure about it because it is not official like you have said only time can tell,

Now that Khamzat Chimaev is going up the division it is going to be Robert Whittaker or Paulo Costa, but I think it will not be Robert Whittaker they have some conversation that Chimaev wants to train with Whittaker and Whittaker wants to catch bad guys with Chimaev, and I don't think Chimaev could win against Whittaker, Robert Whittaker has got some fight IQ even the best grappler could not mess around with him, for me Paolo Costa I most likely they got beef for each other and Paulo Costa is saying a lot of things against Khamzat Chimaev, so the hype is really on between these two,


That Pink Poodle is really full of himself even saying that he doesn't lose against Chito Vera because he got an injury, on his leg, and Chito later reveals that he is really aiming for those legs and that probably break and Pink Poodle is kinda struggling to stand up Marlon Chito Vera has got Poodles leg good that he won it while the Pink Poodle said that he only lost because he was injured and that he is dominating the fight it was really full of himself to say that, and that recent Pedro Munhoz No Contest match where he pokes right into Pedro Munhoz's eyes, he said that it was not an eye Poke, all of this Pink Poodle's saying was really just a lie, and against Yan I want Petr Yan to Pulverize him, and if not I want a rematch against the Pink Poodle VS Marlon Cito Vera,

The guy who is in middleweight and likes to watch anime

Recently came across a video with Dana White, saying that according to him, Chimaev has some weight cutting difficulties and he see him in middleweight better than in welterweight. And if the fans would show a lot of interest, he would try to organize Chimaev vs Costa fight. Also, Chimaev wants his next fight to be in middleweight.

Pink Poodle is full of confidence that he can beat Petr Yan. He was even surprised that he is a 4-1 underdog. Honestly, this is one of the fights that I never expect to happen. I thought the Pink Poodle was just bluffing about fighting Yan. It's less than a month before the actual fight, although it's still a lot of time for Pink Poodle to back out and make excuses.

UFC 280 is a very stacked event. Rooting for the underdogs Oliveira, TJ, Belal, and Dariush. Maybe I should just parlay them together with Yan.

Only time will tell if he is actually serious about retiring or not. I think slowly we will get the actual confirmation. I really think he is doing this for some sympathy.
His loss was quite bad against Khamzat. And now he is trying to see some attention and get some sympathy so that people probably don't look at him as a bad fighter.
At least that's my opinion.


I agree that he is a decent fighter but I don't think he is a top-level fighter. I also don't think he is anywhere near Khamzat in terms of skill.
He needs a lot of improvement. He was 12-1 before UFC but after he joined the UFC he is 11-7 in UFC. I don't think he understood that UFC is the place of the best of the best.
Or he just thought that he is already one of the best. Now his ego is shattered and he is doing some publicity stunts by saying that he will retire.

I know what you are saying but it's always interesting to watch Yoel Romero, unless he is fighting with Israel Adesanya 
UFC has much bigger budget, maybe because they pay fighter less, and they sign new fighters all the time with Dana White Contender Series.

I confirm this happens all the time, and I am following Bellator events all the time.

I have respect for both izzy and pereira doing what izzy does is not an easy task,dominating the middle weight division with some big names in it he even showed great performance in the light heavyweight even if he lost and i admire pereira for trying todethrone izzy in his own sports thats no easy feature too i think we will see a total war in that fight.

Last Bellator event have had a fair share of underdogs getting the W.  Huge underdogs too...  I'm pretty sure a lot of parlays were busted.  Lol.


Not sure what you're looking at but Holland is 23 - 8 in his pro MMA career, 11 - 7 in the UFC.  And he's a pretty decent fighter overall even though the wrestling needs a bit of work.  Maybe he should accept Chimaev's offer of training with him in his gym at Sweden.
