@rdbase that was a fucking good night for you friend congratulations on your winnings.

I want to see a great KO on Masvidal's face this time.
Turns out to be one of the easiest fights for Usman in his eight-years unbeaten run, just like I predicted I wanted to see a great KO on Jorge's face and it comes faster than expected just like the Nigerians always say "Empty drum makes the loudest noise" Jorge was just a fcking talkative without a strategy, he is no match for Usman. I didn't enjoy the game I wanted to see blood rolling from someone's eyes, I wanted to see the ground stain with blood, oh how I miss the good old days. Congratulations Usman the undisputed champion.!!! 🇳🇬

Those were some good fights. Grin
There were two leg breaks one in the prelims and the other in the beginning of the main card.

That was the more bad looking one.

I only bet on the main card matches and managed to get the KO's correct for the ladies except for the main event with Usman not finishing him off in the first round. But I can live with that. Wink


So how did everyone else fair on their bets for the night of great fights we had? Embarrassed

The odds are so one sided on every fight but I might make a cool multi between all the three favs Usman, Weili and Shevchenko (@2.23 with odds boost).

I could see Namajunas or Andrade pulling the upset but its been a while since I followed those two and don't have much info on their opponents so hopefully i'm wrong and the favs deliver.  Grin

I was about to put it on all the favorites but then seeing the odds having lowered down to 2.20x, I decided to pick two of the favorites and pick one of your upsets just so to make it worth it with the stake amount used. Grin

Just around 5-6 more hours until the prelims start but you still have over 8 hours until the three championship matches begin and the main event in 9.

Just for the fun of it Wink
I screencapped the odds when I first created the thread for this event. Just to compare odds and to see if any of the fights would be cancelled or replaced just like with other UFC events having this happened previously.
So here are the odds/fights which were scheduled from two weeks ago:



Here are the fights along with the odds available as of today after the weigh-ins which were done yesterday:



Some slight variations in the odds for Zhang and even a slimmer margin for Usman.
Interesting to see them change from a two week interval.

I don't always watch ufc fights but I will probably watch this because I hear it is first big event with real crowd in arena, and dangerous girls fighting should not be missed Smiley

      Preliminary notes

      • This will be Chris Weidman vs Uriah Hall 2. They previously fought in 2010 at ROC 31 with Weidman emerging the victor in round 1 via TKO
      • Jessica Andrade is moving up to the 125 lb weight class to challenge Valentina Shevchenko for the title. Previously Andrade competed at 115 lbs
      • All 3 of Karl Roberson's professional losses are by submission. His opponent Brendan Allen has 8 out of 15 wins by sub. Will be interesting to see what changes either fighter has made (if any) as Roberson's weaknesses would appear to align with Brendan Allen's strengths
      • Tristan Connelly's last win versus Michel Pereira impressed many being that Connelly took the fight on late notice. Michel Pereira's coaches could not obtain travel visas for that fight. And so Pereira himself was somewhat impaired not having anyone to help him cut weight or corner him


      Does anyone know the dimensions of the octagon used in the Jacksonville Florida stadium? I'm assuming its going to be bigger than the Apex one. I can't find any concrete information on this as of now.


      The last Kamaru Usman vs Jorge Masvidal match up did 1.3 million pay per view buys. Which is ranked in the top 55 pay per view sporting events of all time.

      They normally ship the big(ger) cage wherever its needed for big title fights like this one. Although there have been a few exceptions.[/list][/list]

      As for the fight itself. Usman. Despite, probably going to have terrible odds I'd stick a bet down on him winning via TKO. I'm slightly bias in that I'm not a big fan of Masvidal.

      Also, I'm actually not looking forward to having fans back in the stadiums. Over this whole pandemic I've grown accustomed to hearing the corners, and coaching during rounds, and have absolutely loved it. Also, hearing the shots connect each time is somewhat satisfying.

      Checking into it I have found this about the arena's size (it is larger than the one at the APEX) compared to the ones at Abu Dhabi used in the fight island matches:
      "The smaller Octagon at UFC Apex has resulted inentertaining clashes :
      So far in Jacksonville they used the regular cage, at The UFC APEX, the Octagon was smaller, and Dana White hasn't announced yet which they will use in Abu Dhabi on UFC Fight Island. But with Dana preferring finishes it wouldn't be a shock to see the smaller one head to the other side of the planet."
      source: https://www.sportskeeda.com/mma/is-smaller-cage-truly-better-cage

      Seems they will use the regular cage since it's a 'main event' venue and not just a fight night like it was at the APEX in the last one during the 23rd venue.
      The dimensions of the regular cages are here:
      https://www.dimensions.com/element/ufc-octagon#:~:text=UFC%20Octagons%20have%20an%20internal,1.2%20m)%20from%20the%20ground.

      "UFC Octagons have an internal length and width of of 30' (9.14 m) with a total competition area of 750 ft² (69.7 m²). The UFC Octagon is surrounded by a fence with a height of 5'9”-6' (1.75-1.83 m) and is often set on a platform between 3.28'-3.94' (1-1.2 m) from the ground. Dec. 9, 2020"

      I just wanted to share that we have a community that fans of UFC. And since last week, they have been talking about these three championship matches. The majority of the member are supporters of Usman Kamaru and they don’t really see the chance of Masvidal winning and take over the title.

      People will always tell, this guy is on a different level. He is a true warrior and that’s because of his hard work on how he built himself to become the fighter he is now.

      I can't wait for this crucial match, Usman Kamaru will be having his 5th title defense and his second against Masvidal. Usman is very powerful, fast and his cardio is on another level too, not sure Jose can get his revenge right this time, Usman gotta keep the BMF belt, I want to see a great KO on Masvidal's face this time.
      For Jorge Masvidal this will be his last title match and i am expecting a much better fight than the first one as he will coming into this fight after a fight camp while he fought earlier as a short notice replacement and Jorge Masvidal really surprised me in that fight as he was landing solid punches in that fight and was causing some troubles for Kamaru Usman.

      I might not place a bet in the main event but has to check the rest of the card before making a decision.

      This will be the place to discuss UFC fight night and the main events for Sportsbet.io and will be having the odds they provide for each and every fight shown here.

      In just 10 days we will be back just like before with fans allowed in the arena for the fight cards. Grin
      It was strange not having the crowd as background noise for each bout and you could hear the fighters breathing which one commentator mentioned during the last event.

      Looking forward to UFC 261 with three championship fights happening in a single night on April 24, 2021.

      Seems like Jacksonville Florida stadium is the perfect venue to hold this first event to be infront of captivating audience as their restrictions are next to none.
      They can jam as many people in the arena at capacity so it should be back to being loud again.

      Resume FIGHT! Grin
