Hey guys, just dropping by to post some videos. I hope you already have your bets locked and loaded before watching these as they could change your decisions for the worst. Enjoy!

I am locking my huge bet on Jon Jones and Cyborg parlay as these are my favorite fighters and i do not think anyone could challenge them in near future,Jones is stronger and bigger now ,lets see whether Cormier can do anything different, i see this as a battle of clinches and elbows .The sad thing is there is not a worthy contender for Cyborg as she is the best in the world and no one comes close to her.

I saw how bones is now and really he's pretty scary to go against. Seems he's been preparing for this comeback and we probably would see him reclaiming the title from cormier though i'm looking at a very close fight here. If only cyborg entered the ufc during ronda's heydays, right now i would have to agree, cyborg is the best out there in the women's division.

^ Yeah, those two seems like two sure wins imo. Might as well do a parlay.

Anyway here are more videos as we come near the event this weekend. I'm also waiting for krach's breakdown video from Degenbet. Can't wait!

About Demian Maia versus Tyrone Woodley, does anyone think Demian has a chance here? After 2 not really that good title defenses I reckon this 3rd one will be the one that will finally make him lose.

This coming fight is huge. Cormier and Jones are both powerful in the UFC MMA. Both of them have an outstanding records. But in this fight ill go for Jones because he is a beast. His reach is a key advantage in the match. He also know a many variety of moveset he is damn flexible thats why im rooting for jones' win

I think Tyson Fury got into Klitschko's head with the talk leading up to the fight. That made Klitschko hesitant and paralyzed him.

Still need to watch more of GGG and Saul Alvarez's fights to get a better indication of how good they are. I kind of get the feeling both guys are overrated and only look good due to boxing's talent being thin these days.

I agree with you there dude except for ggg being overrated. Boxing nowadays are being marred by controversy after controversy which really takes away the attention and interest of people from it and shifting more to a more realistic mma. But i think golovkin is legitimate and is one of the few guys that people would still want to watch. We don't have that much fighters that can draw attention for boxing now.

Haters always say that boxing is dead, specially MMA fans that want to take over the fighting game, but that will never happen, boxing is here to stay, lots of good fights coming.

GGG vs Canelo is a very difficult fight to predict. Power is not everything, skill beats power in boxing, but few have the skill of Floyd to win the powerpunchers, maybe Canelo doesn't have the skill to outbox someone as good as triple G.

I am a fight fan ,tell me one fight other than GGG and Canelo that was made at the right time in boxing in recent history,can you name one fight,big time egos are ruling the boxing world and they are destroying boxing and that is the fact, GGG is a beast without a doubt and this is a fight that i am really looking forward. Lot of interesting fights coming up and it is good for fight fans.

Well Anthony Joshua vs Klitschko was a nicely timed fight. Sure Klitschko is older, but it doesn't matter, it was the time to happen, the king vs the apprentice sort of fight. The rematch will be great too, Klitschko has good chances to take the belt back.

Klitschko vs Tyson Fury was also a fight fans wanted to see, even if it was not what we expected.

Golovkin will crush Canelo for sure as he's the better and stronger man.

But I expected something more inserting for a gala as Canelo vs Golovkin is not ppv-selling match.

I think people are underrated Canelo. Canelo only lost to Mayweather, but then again, everyone loses to Mayweather.

He has now improved a lot, he has the experience, I think he can make it really difficult for Golovkin to get the job done, it will be a war, the best boxing match of the year for sure, probably better than AJ-Klitschko.

I'm also looking forward to the fight as well. It will definitely a war. This will be far the biggest challenge since he fought Floyd. However, I picking GGG to win this fight. This will be a long and hard battle and will be bloody for both of the warriors. Sure Canelo can punch but GGG has more power. I'm thinking a close decision in favor of GGG, I would surprise if Canelo got KO though. PPV numbers would be great as well, because hard core and even casual fans will be watching after the Floyd vs McGregor fight and the buzz will be still in boxing. Who says that boxing is dead?

Canelo will be at the defensive end. GGG will be the one taking the offensive here and I don't know how Canelo can outbox GGG specially in the later round. GGG has a solid chin as well as shown in his previous fight specially in his fight Kell Brook. Some would argue that Brook moved up two weight divisions to challenge Golovkin. Yes, its gonna be a difficult fight to predict, and it should be a close fight. I see something like Golovkin controlling the early action with his jab, Alvarez winning some of the middle rounds with his combination punching, and Golovkin taking advantage of his elite endurance to claim the championship rounds.

Yup. Coach Zahabi is really good in breaking down fights but he kinda sucks in making predictions tho. In case you guys didn't know he's GSP's head coach.

AFAIK, BJJ Scout is Keenan Cornelius. Keenan is known for making technical clips on youtube breaking down grappling and wrestling. He's the biggest suspect as to the identity of BJJ Scout anyway.

Firas Zahabi has his own youtube channel where he breaks things down & makes predictions. His style seems different from BJJ Scout's in terms of the perspective they have and their approach.

BJJ Scout released a good breakdown of Jones Vs Cormier clinch & hand fighting in the first fight.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iq96XmBWSn4

All of BJJ Scout's videos are A+ imo.

Probably the best at breaking down wrestling/grappling. The best that releases videos and shares everything they know publicly anyway.

Thanks for the link. I may get to see what were the factors that decided their first match.

Anyways, I see Jones really determined to win this match. Hope he won't get too cocky this time and just talk when his done beating DC.

This fight will be huge, I can't wait. There's also the Mayweater Macgregor superfight, and Golovkin Canelo is also coming soon. So many huge fights this summer, good year for the fighting game. I don't know who to bet for.

Don't think Canelo vs Golovkin will get some good numbers in tickets sales and PPV considering it's happening a little over three weeks after May vs Mac. A better strategy would either be negotiate Canelo vs Golovkin to be an under card for May vs Mac (which is impossible, but would have been great), or move the fight for another month or two.

I don't think Canelo and Golovkin would have agreed to be anywhere but main card of the night, specially for a fight such as Mayweather vs an UFC guy... the fight will be great but for pure boxing fans is a bit of a joke.

Boxing fans want to see Canelo and Golovkin as main card in their own night so I think the date is set correctly. Real boxing fans would have bought this fight wit our without MayMac fight happening.

I hope that this fight push through. To see who is better, though I'm eyeing DC in this one. Jones, I think is way off his prime and due to his drugs addiction I guess. It will took time for him to recover from that, Even though he doesn't want to accept it.

Mayweather and McGregor fight is also one of the most interesting fight this year. I hope that McGregor won this fight even though it is the playground of Floyd. I guess punching power and accuracy will be McGregor's key in this fight and I hope he don't lose air all through out the match.
