I can't believe that there are so few UFC fans here in the forum. I wonder what it would take to convince them that the UFC will be the biggest fighting based sport that would replace boxing. As some analysts are already saying, 'boxing is dying'. After Manny Pacquiao, I don't know who else to watch in that sport.

Here's a couple of videos to get those people who are not into UFC to watch and hopefully get excited over. Enjoy!

@thejaytiesto. Amanda Nunes is going to win this unless Ronda has adjusted to a type of opponent who likes to fight with a little distance like Holly Holm and Amanda. What Amanda will do is avoid Ronda on the clinch by limping her arm and pulling herself back out. Watch the fight between Amanda and Meisha again and see what I mean.

The wait is almost over, im not gonna lie im pretty hyped to see Ronda's return into the octagon but im also very excited to see the Cruz fight, he is one of the best ever in my book, only lost once to Farber then got a win in the last rematch. Cody is an undefeated fighter and it's always exciting to see undefeated fighters with a good record fight (he has 10-0). Pretty difficult to pick bets for this one.

Hey guys, just dropping by to post a couple of videos as UFC 207 gets closer and closer. This is one of the most exciting UFC events ever and if you're a fan, you'd be crazy not to watch this live... Preferably in a pub getting drunk with your mates. Grin

I recommend you guys watch the vlog series too. They give good info on the mindset of each fighter days before the event.

This is another excellent breakdown by Dan Hardy. Nuff said.

Here's a quote from Ronda Rousey on why she's not participating in the media events to promote UFC 207.

Quote

was just trying to make too many people happy,” Rousey told ESPN. “But when I try and do favors and make everybody else happy, at the end of the day, they walk away happy and I’m the one who has to deal with the depression. All the pay-per-views in the world, all the money in the world, it means (expletive) nothing to me because I lost.”

With that kind of attitude coming in this fight, I think there's still hope for her even if (I think) she's still mentally affected from her loss.

MMA Pros Pick - Cain Velasquez vs. Fabricio Werdum II
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sgiVGGBllS4

I thought Cain Velasquez vs. Fabricio Werdum II is cancelled and Junior Dos Santos wants to replace Cain Velasquez.

Is it because of Cain's back injury? I googled what you said and I cannot find any news about Cain versus Fabricio being cancelled. What I see is Cain talking down his back injury and he is saying that it is manageable. Junior Dos Santos is scheduled for another event I think on January.

It's from the post of Brandon Vera through his facebook page entimports and yes its because of Cain's back injury. I just found it also weird that instead of Cain preparing his body for a surgery, he instead signed up for a fight, it could do more damage if he continue to fight then do surgery later.

Nice catch. I did not believe you at first to be quite honest. But I knew that there is some truth to the news because there were articles online that were saying Cain started using CBD to manage the pain in his back.

Heavy betting towards Nunes is moving the line down and up for Rousey. If Rousey's odds reach around 1.90 by Friday I could end up betting for her plus some Ronda win via sub props.

I'd take Nunez in 2nd round.
Any place I can place my 100mbtc at for the best odds on that.
It's a week away so the odds won't be that great until the last hour of the fight when announcements are made and speculation starts to take hold.

Im gonna go for Amanda Nunez in this match. Shes more masculine than ronda rousey. Rousey will get knock out if she is not careful just like whats happen to her versus Holms. She knock her out with huge kick to her jaw. Nunez is no joke. Shes dangerous and more powerful in terms of striking. The chance that rousey will win this bout is very thin. If she use her wrestling skill well, theres a possibilty she will win this bout.

For me though, it seems that after that loss to holly holmes people started doubting what rhonda can do. She's been fighting and beating hard hitters before that loss and i think rousey still has a good chance in winning this one, that is if her confidence is back to where is was. It would be more on the psychological end i think. Although if she gets hit by Nunez, it's going to be retirement for her

Both are the best female competitors right now in my book. You could say Cris Cyborg is also a top contender but she was just recently caught doping so im not sure what's going to happen with her career now... I always thought she looked a bit weird as if she was on steroids or something, then again you never know, I think everyone in the sport is on steroids.

@gabmen. How can you say that? Nunes' strikes are strong, fast and crisp. She knows when to keep her distance, just like Holly Holm and when to strike going forward. Ronda should be careful because this could be her last fight in the UFC. She has been away from fighting for more than 1 year and many of her peers do not think she is ready for a championship fight.

Only 10 days to go for the fight, still haven't firgured out what to do with this one. I didn't bet any fight in UFC 206 because I didnt saw it clear except for the Urijah fight where i thought he could win but I wastn sure 100% so I lost an opportunity to make money.

Now with this new fight I cant honestly predict any of them.

True. I was sure I was betting on Nunes the minute I heard about the bout, but then I found out later that almost everyone was thinking the same way I do that Rousey might be psychologically impaired to take such an important fight. And yet the lines stayed almost the same in the sports books. Do the odds makers know something we don't? Are the sharps still holding out until the last minute to pour the money in?

It almost feels like the sharps are waiting for the Rousey line to improve and pour all the money on her.

well i think they do this all the time especially for big fights like this. though for me i'd say rhonda should be able to pull this one off even with the psychological aspect not on her favor. im hoping we'll see the old rhonda and then i'll look forward to the rhonda cris cyborg fight. oh and i also had my bet placed already on rousey so good luck to both of us dude Cheesy
