I was a Jessica-Rose Clark decision away from winning £15k. What's more annoying, it was the first bloody fight of the evening, so any tension was gone before we even started. I knew it, I bloody knew I should've favoured the wrestler. Especially, in Womans mixed martial arts, I find the wrestlers are usually the ones that make a good bet, when it comes to underdogs.
Love to see Strickland brought back down to reality. Feel like he overlooked Alex. Izzy did Izzy things, made it look easy, but ultimately wasn't a overly exciting fight. Honestly, despite the card being stacked, I felt a little bit disappointed by most of the fights.

Jessica-Rose Clark
8 out of 12, one of those being a no contest, so 8 out of 11. That's not a bad night, if Jessica had won, I'd have landed two bets.
It was surely not a bad night for you and with bets like this I really think we need to be prepared for the outcome, and like you, I also bet for Jessica-Rose Clark, and I surely never realized that Julija Stoliarenko was this good of a wrestler, pretty much I have never realized that the result will be like this aswell, but I surely never regret it and that is why I bet with a minimum 4 to 3 fights only, but 8 over 11 win still is decent,
Actually, Alex Pereira made Sean Strickland way too easy, pretty much Pereira is surely not just hype, the way he calculated the fight and condition, Strickland, in the way he wants him to do this was set up by Pereira, and in my opinion Israel Adesanya should be more worried about the guy that made him sleep on the canvas,
Alexander Volkanovski was a superior fighter and he was much faster than Max Holloway and he was not able to find the range and Alexander Volkanovski was landing the heavy punches frequently and now it is time for Alexander Volkanovski to move up the division and fight Charles Oliveira and that is what he said during the post fight interview and i believe that is what he is going to get next because he literally cleaned the division.
Volkanovski is really looking for belt number 2 and given a chance he might become one, he surely got the Speed no doubt about that, while Charles Oliveira has the accuracy to land punches, this will be an epic fight but the media is looking for ways for Volkanovski to look like he doesn't deserve it, by saying that Holloway is not the same and not in his top physique but this is just an excused to make Volkanovski's look weak,
Max Holloway should take some time off, he is durable fighter but got punched a lot and i believe it is a UFC record or something. As long as Alexander Volkanovski is the champion he will not get a chance to fight for the title.
I truly salute Max Holloway's durability and chin, pretty much if Volkanovski would fight a different fighter it could be over in just 2 rounds, but Holloway surely has a sturdy chin that can withstand Volkanovski's strikes,
