Really, Sandhagen over Yan? I thought it was universally thought of as Yan's fight to win but would like to hear the other side. Personally, I am leaning towards Yan, but Sandhagen will bring the heat. I think Yan will do anything and everything to win this one after the loss from Sterling (no matter how he lost), so there is additional emphasis on Yan that will push him.

If based on line value, I don’t mind Kenny’s parlay. Check the match between Yan and Aljo at UFC Stats. Aljo was statistically ahead in significant strikes before he started slowing down and then the illegal knee happened.

Check here: http://ufcstats.com/fight-details/15c9cb5f9320c555

Sandhagen has good cardio and could make it close than the line suggests.

I get the Li pick too. Chimaev had a bad case of covid and had a somewhat long lay off. So we don’t really know what shape he’s right now and if he’s ready to take the step up vs Li. Li isn’t that bad.

So yeah.. I really wouldn’t be surprised if both underdogs won.

Edit: Jandiroba could be another good underdog pick.

yeah thats what i going for between why i picked sandhagen over yan.

and yes for the chimaev vs Li actually extremely risky too , look at Alexander Volkanovski , he got covid and recovered but still he able to win over Brian Ortega with style

but still gonna stick with my picks . good luck to those who bets , and those who don't , enjoy the match , it would be an exciting weekend !

Fair enough wanted to hear the other side of the Yan / Sandhagen coin. Still think Sandhagen will bring the heat to Yan.

How long ago was Chimaevs lay off? If it was close to the fight, I always wonder why they don't take a bit more time off. Rushing towards a fight after you had a bad case of whatever just seems like a bad idea.

Chimaevs was out for 1 year + according to the ufc embedded vlog .

It sucks when your phone breaks while your authenticator is installed there. I couldn't access my account and I missed out betting on Vettori last week.

I was wondering why @TopTort777 was saying the main fight will go the distance until I saw the stats. The Legendary Polish Power doesn't look like legendary when you compare his win by KO/TKO percentage against Texeira Grin

Having said that, I think Jan could win by TKO by third or fourth round. He'll make use of his gas tank and power in the later rounds.

Is there no one gutsy enough to bet on Dan Hooker? The guy is like +460 Grin

Not really , although really i love dan hooker, but not gonna bet on it .. feel like there is no chance

I am very interested to watch next UFC event, and I noticed that fight card is full of fighters from Russia, ten including heavyweight giant Alexander Volkov and Petr Yan is coming back after Aljamain Sterling fight.
Jan Blachowicz said in last interview that he would be open to rematch Israel Adesanya but only if he first fights with few other fighters below him in rankings:

Btw, in post fight interview Costa explain why he weighed a lot and probably lost. Because 2 weeks before the fight, he had his left biceps torn and missed part of his camp. Can we count this as legit or just an excuse ? Cheesy

Did he actually say that? Ridiculous, every time hes lost there's an excuse. He's basically doing a Wilder, except he isn't quite using as ridiculous excuses. Quite frankly, on the night he was throwing with some considerable heat, and didn't look injured at all. Plus, a torn bicep doesn't really effect you too much in losing weight. You could argue he couldn't work out as much, but then you would just pull out of the fight due to injury.

If you're daft enough to go into a fight knowing your injured, then it isn't a valid excuse because you made that decision. I really want to like Costa just because he's an entertaining fighter, but his attitude sucks, and his excuses are ridiculous.

But as a fan of Khabib Nurmagomedov, of course I did not miss the fight of Islam Makhachev who is a sparring partner and student of Khabib.

You have forgotten one of Khabibs best friend - Zubaira Tukhugov is fighting in prelims Cheesy

So you will have to watch his fight also (sadly, Zuba is not as cool as Islam). Not to mention Chimaev. They know each other IRL and had some controversies. After Khabib retired, Chimaev has told he would have won Khabib if they would meet. Later he had removed his tweet.

Well, Vettori gained a fan last weekend from me. I've always been quite the critic when it comes to his style, and while he definitely has finished a lot of fighters, I've always thought he could be more active when he takes people down onto the mat. Well, against Costa he proved he actually has some decent striking ability. I thought he was outstriking Costa much of the fight, and the only reason Costa was still in it was because of the impact from his shots, rather than the volume.

There was one point in the fight quite late on where I thought Costa had Vettori on the ropes. It was from a couple of body shots which seemed to hurt him quite a bit, but he recovered nicely. I'm not sure what's next for either fighters, it seems Vettori might have hit a plateau, as I don't think he's going to be beating Izzy anytime soon, but he probably clears up the rest of the up, and coming contenders.

Costa, again I'm not sure where to put him. He'll always have a chance in a fight due to his heavy hands, but his striking ability as a whole probably has to be questioned. I'm not sure what's next for him to be honest.

Yeah , yes yan is dominating as a champ , but what i feeling right now that he was pushing for sterling match right now , the mindset is not right and i think he might overpush for upcoming match and lost via tko . Sandhagen is actually a great fighter

2. Petr Yan vs Cory Sandhagen (interim bantamweight title fight)

3. Islam Makhachev vs Dan Hooker (lightweight)

4. Alexander Volkov vs Marcin Tybura (heavyweight)

Why Sandhagen is an underdog in this fight? Just because Petr Yan once was a champ? I think they both have identical chances to win. Yan is more aggressive, but Sandhagen will try to counter it with wrestling. I think that Yan had only two tough opponents in UFC, Faber and Aldo. Sandhagen also Franky Edgar and Dillashaw ( I don't think that Sandhagen has lost that fight completely, it was a split decisions and only 1 point advantage). All their other opponents were not that tough.

UFC 267 whole main card worth watching.

I think it will be easy to predict the winner of main event. Jan would win Teixera. I don't see Teixera as a champ. He has been fighting in UFC for ages, this is second title fight (first was 7 years ago). All of Teixera career was like scales more here and there. Teixera always is looking like is tired. I simply don't feel him winning, even though is ranked first in light heavy. Both fighters has a lot of knockouts in the records, but I think the fight will go full distance and will and by unanimous decision.

Abu Dhabi UAE is really stunning and the thing I like and what I miss was the fight island where the ring is at the seashore, it is really beautiful to watch and I think when fighters would surely love getting back there that vibe and feeling,

The fight island looks cool but majority of the fighters flying from US and surrounding countries will not be liking the long flights as it would take sometime to get rid of the jet lag and then get accumulated to the weather condition. The hospitality is world class and if not for the long and tiring travel they would enjoy fighting in the UAE.

Well, the fighters that I think would dominate inside the octagon, but this is not my final pick but will still be looking at all the nook and crannies of all fighters, 1st for me is Jan Blachowicz, Islam Makhachev, Khamzat Chimaev, and lastly will be the beautiful Amanda Ribas.

Jan Blachowicz, Islam Makhachev, Khamzat Chimaev looks like a good parlay to bet, have to check their opponents and finally glad to see Khamzat Chimaev return after a long break.

If you didn't watch previous main event fight Marvin Vettori vs Paulo Costa, try to find recording and watch it now, it's one of the best five round fights I recently watched in UFC.
Costa punched hard with his legs and was better in last round, but Vettori was superior with movement and had much more total and significant strikes.
I had small bet on Vettori and I am happy final outcome but this fight could go either way if Vettori was not so tough, and never finished before.
Dana White said that Costa will have to fight in Lightheavyweight division from now on

At first glance there are a couple of matches that are lined to wide giving the underdogs some value. Mustafaev could be value and so are Ramos and Oezdemir.
