Result for the UFC on ABC 5 Emmett VS Topuria

Josh Emmett VS Ilia Topuria ROUND 5 DECISION  - WIN

Well after seeing this masterclass boxing from Ilia Topuria I can say that Ilia Topuria is not the same as Yair Rodriguez, Yair has those high kicks but I always thought that Topuria has those kicks aswell but right now he is showing great boxing shoulder defense amazing, from ost of the overhand punch of Emmett, Josh Emmett punches is pretty much obvious Ilia Topuria can clearly see it all, he can read Josh Emmett the whole fight it was a dominant Ilia Topuria fighting Emmett for me all round was for Topuria, but 1 judge have given 1 round to Josh Emmett which is ridiculous,

Amanda Ribas VS Maycee Barber ROUND 2 KO/TKO - LOST

This fight for the Woman Flyweight was a brutal Bloody mess but it was a spectacular fight any of them can win this fight but Maycee Barber has thrown most of the strikes to Ribas, it was a spectacular fight Amanda Ribas have thrown 3 takedowns but only was successful but Maycee Barber have shown good defense with those submission attempts
from Amanda Ribas,

Tabatha Ricci VS Gillian Robertson ROUND 3 DECISION - WIN

And Tabatha Ricci was amazing she have thrown more strikes than Robertson, at 1st it was a close match but Ricci have find her momentum with her takedowns she have thrown 8 takedowns that eventually find 3 of them successful while Gillian Robertson throws only 4 and just 1 success surely takedown defense of Tabatha Ricci is more successful, it was a crazy fight but Tabatha Ricci was amazing with her performance she surely outperform Gillian Robertson

Yup! It was too early I almost didn't get my picks for this event, but still it was a solid event the Main Event was a heaven for action even though it didn't end up with what I expected to be a KO or Submission win for Topuria but even though it ends up in a decision it was an entertaining fight to see,

The Amanda Ribas VS Maycee Barber is an epic fight to watch it was full of action indeed, and the most frustrating fight was the No contest for the Heavyweight Justin Tafa vs Austen Lane, but Brendan Allen vs Bruno Silva has an amazing finish actually I never thought that the fights would be this great,

The result of my picks


Josh Emmett vs Ilia Topuria - WIN

Josh Emmet was one durable fighter but Ilia Topuria got great boxing defending and not giving some for Emmett, the whole fight was a spectacular fight but Ilia Topuria was in full control, had amazing boxing skills, and can surely read Emmett's every move, Josh Emmett doesn't have any opening for Ilia Topuria while Topuria is reading him like a book, it was a dominant fight for Topuria, now I really don't know if Ilia Topuria has elite boxing like Alexander Volkanovski because Josh Emmett is not in that Elite level he is not likely champion material,

Justin Tafa vs Austen Lane - NO CONTEST

It was an intentional Eye poke and respect both fighters Justin Tafa is just full of respect for Austen Lane and don't want him to be booed like that, It was not a great time actually I was frustrated but at the same, it was this kind of thing really happen and I really feel bad about both fighters,

Brendan Allen vs Bruno Silva - WIN

It was a round 1 fight submission win for Brendan Allen it was a crazy win and Bruno Silva made a big mistake for Bruno Silva in giving his back, so it was a win for Brendan Allen,

Yeah it is very early as the prelims main event is just ending with Magny vs Rowe.

But what a great prelim match right from the start with the fight of the night already declared.
Try and guess which one?

All the fights so far have been by decision so have gone the distance. Except for one which the fighters leg just gave out on him after taking alot of strikes.

Ricci won her match so those who had their bets on her to win congratulations on that early win so far!

Getting ready for the rest of the main card to begin in just a few more minutes after this final and third round is done for Magny.

Good luck to all with those bets above!

Picks and Prediction for the UFC on ABC 5

Josh Emmett vs Ilia Topuria

This is an interesting fight Ilia Topuria just like everyone is saying has the same fighting style as Yair Rodriguez but for me, I think Topuria had a strategic approach at the beginning of the fight, and then if he likely sees an opening that is the time he will surely move, while Josh Emmett is a brawler that definitely had his own wrestling game, but for me, the level of Topuria's BJJ is greater than Emmett, Sportsbet odds are 3.70 for Emmett and 1.28 for Topuria, so my pick is Ilia Topuria,

Justin Tafa vs Austen Lane

Justin Tafa likely wants to finish this fight quickly so I think he is aiming for a knockout win here and waiting for his opponent to cause a mistake, it is really interesting because Heavyweight fights end quickly but this heavyweight fighter Austen Lane got smarts on his move and you can say he is fast like Cyril Gane a combination of kicks and strikes, and a takedown if his opponent gets to the ground he would surely ground and pound it is really weird but for me, this is an interesting Heavyweight fight, for sure Sportsbet odds are 2.50 for Lane and 1.53 for Tafa, I am going with Austen Lane,

Brendan Allen vs Bruno Silva

For this fight this is really straight forward Bruno Silva is a stand-up fighter, he would want to finish the fight while standing and I never see him getting takedown Brendan Allen is the opposite so for this fight Bruno Silva will likely need takedown defense more because Allen can keep this fight on the ground and Silva doesn't want that to happen but for me, the Sportsbet odds are 1.45 for Allen and 2.75 for Silva, my pick is Brendan Allen,

I think it is never too late to post it here aswell, just like you these are my bet and Predictions, for the Main Event and the Co-Main Event only,

Josh Emmett (3.70) VS Ilia Topuria (1.28)

Both Emmett and Topuria are well-rounded with the stand-up and the ground game, for sure this is one great fight to watch but Ilia Topuria is clearly the most like to win here, for me Ilia Topuria got the fight IQ and durability in withstanding against Emmett's strikes I surely see Topuria can shake off a huge strike from Emmet then retaliates with a strike of his own, or being more well rounded in the ground for me the level of knowledge of Topuria in the ground is vast so Emmett will likely have a hard time for sure, so my pick is Ilia Topuria,



Amanda Ribas (1.50) VS Maycee Barber (2.60)

Clearly, it is hard to predict who's going to win in this fight, but Maycee Barber has proven her worth by winning against Jessica Eye and Andrea Lee I badly want her to fight Erin Blanchfield but it got canceled when Erin Blanchfield got a great win against Molly McCann, and Jéssica Andrade, but for me, Amanda Ribas got a great style and taking on Viviane Araujo and winning it for me has some great thing for her for me I will be giving a go with the bet for Amanda Ribas,

It is a UFC Fight Night if you look at Tapology you will see this,



It was UFC Fight Night Jacksonville, well they have added ABC 5 because that is the Affiliated mainstream station that will broadcast this event live,

Here are my picks, prediction, and bet for the upcoming UFC on ABC 5

Josh Emmett VS Ilia Topuria

The odds for this fight are 3.70 for Emmett and 1.28 for Topuria, For me the level of comparison for these two fighters is so much far away, Ilia Topuria is crazily good with his age, for me this is going to be a close fight on the start but if Ilia Topuria saw an opening he will surely blow out Emmett, we can see if Josh Emmett manage to knockout Topuria, Ilia Topuria will simply get back up as nothing had happened then Topuria will get back that tenfold with a Knock out or a submission just like what he does, I have bet an Ilia Topuria win and winning this fight with a KO or Submission win,

Amanda Ribas VS Maycee Barber

The odds for this fight are 1.50 for Ribas and 2.60 for Barber, Surely it is hard to predict a woman fight but Amanda Ribas is very durable for me Ribas has great striking sure her accuracy but for me her takedowns are superb surely Maycee Barber also has some takedown game but for me, Amanda Ribas is much advance with her game for sure this is going to be a win for Amanda Ribas,

Tabatha Ricci VS Gillian Robertson

The odds for this fight are 1.74 for Ricci and 2.11 for Robertson, Both of these girls have shown great talent with their submission but who has the real leveled submission game, for me that record of Ricci is superb but his experience of Robertson is proven to have come a lot, but for me, this is going to be a close match and the first to give the submission a armbar will be the winner, and looking at their previews fight and both are armbar, this is going to be a win as a submission win, for me I will be going with Baby Shark Tabatha Ricci,

Very early preliminary matches for this UFC event as I would go to guess why this isn't called fight night main event bouts.

Get your bets in early enough as the first one beginnings in about 3.5 hours from now!

Will make my predictions for this UFC event closer to the fight time as the start for it is mid-afternoon so best to make them Saturday morning.

For me, there aren't really much exciting fights in here except for the Main Event, Josh Emmett still has a great record and his fights were really great to watch for sure Yair Rodriguez's fight was stunningly good and Rodriguez had a hard time against Emmett for sure even though Emmett lost that fight and surely those kicks from Yair Rodriguez is solid and brutal to Emmett well it was finished with a triangle choke and it was spectacular what these two have showcased in the fight and after that, Yair Rodriguez shows some respect to Josh Emmett after he taps out, for me Ilia Topuria has a same technique as Yair Rodriguez so a fight with Josh Emmett will be a banger aswell,

Right now as I am posting this the fight for Trevor Peek vs. Victor Martinez was canceled due to Victor Martinez withdrawing from the fight I don't know the reason then Trevor Peek will now face Chepe Mariscal as a substitute fighter for Martinez,

The UFC on ABC 5 Multi-Master Challenge is up and here is the link - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.62435568


It was canceled for the UFC Fight Night: Vettori vs. Cannonier, but it was rescheduled in UFC Fight Night Jacksonville but yeah it was postponed and likely reschedule in a better time slot, for me well this is truly a banger fight for sure, Josh Emmett is really durable, but Ilia Topuria will showcase another great fight for sure,

It wasn't necessarily cancelled but postponed and rescheduled according to this article I found posted yesterday:

source: https://www.sportskeeda.com/mma/ufc-fight-night-marvin-vettori-vs-jared-cannonier

Delaying it for the week after just makes it sound less like either fighter had to pull out due to injury. Thus the entire fight between these two would have to be cancelled and not rescheduled because then it would be at an unknown date at that point.

Now that the UFC Fight Night Las Vegas is settled I think we can move on to UFC Fight Night Jacksonville, where I think this is going to be an interesting event, here is the full card,

Updated: The Multi-Master Challenge - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.62435568

The Killa Gorilla has improved so much and I think this is because of Israel Adesanya he is motivated by what has happened with their fight he said that in the interview he was really aiming for a title fight and he wants to out strike Adesanya on their next fight, and right now he can wrestle now he also has said that he hadn't shown his wrestling capabilities yet, and right now he has a huge cardio going in the fight that fights was 5 rounds and he was an interview and he was never breathing heavily, that goes to show the level of the gas tank going into the fight,

The result of my full picks

MAIN EVENT
Marvin Vettori VS Jared Cannonier ROUND 5 DECISION - WIN

CO-MAIN EVENT
Arman Tsarukyan VS Joaquim Silva ROUND 3 KO/TKO - WIN

MAIN CARD
Christian Leroy Duncan VS Armen Petrosyan ROUND 3 DECISION - LOST
Pat Sabatini VS Lucas Almeida ROUND 2 SUBMISSION - WIN
Nikolas Motta VS Manuel Torres ROUND 1 KO/TKO - WIN
Muslim Salikhov VS Nicolas Dalby ROUND 3 DECISION - LOST

PRELIMINARY CARD
Jimmy Flick VS Alessandro Costa ROUND 2 KO/TKO - WIN
Kyung Ho Kang VS Cristian Quiñonez ROUND 1 SUBMISSION - LOST
Carlos Hernandez VS Denys Bondar ROUND 3 DECISION - LOST
Tereza Bledá VS Gabriella Fernandes ROUND 3 DECISION - WIN
Ronnie Lawrence VS Daniel Argueta ROUND 1 PREMATURE STOPPAGE - NO CONTEST
Modestas Bukauskas VS Zac Pauga ROUND 3 DECISION - WIN

It was a breaking-record fight for Jared Cannonier as he sets the record for the most significant strike in a middleweight fight surely his strike volume really did increase and goes to the roof while Marvin Vettori really has durability going with the fight that I think made Jared Cannonier struggle because of the impressive chin of Vettori, surely he has done everything in his power to knockout Vettori and I think it also adds up for Cannonier to break the record the awesome durability of Marvin Vettori,


Congratulations on your winnings but likely seeing the cards and who's going to fight I was really surprised aswell, but yeah it was likely many in this event has some potential that are underdog, so it was unlikely a underdog paradise if you likely want to bet for the Underdog,

---

Result of my picks and prediction,

Marvin Vettori (1.80) VS Jared Cannonier (2.02) - LOST

I thought that Marvin Vettori will likely dominate the ground by controlling Cannonier, but it was the opposite way, Jared Cannonier now has a takedown and I was totally surprised about this he was likely training takedowns, and he also said that he has a lot to show and always thinking that Israel Adesanya lost, he surely wants to out strike Adesanya this time, but breaking the record of most significant strikes, a truly amazing feat, but yeah it was possible because of Vettori's durable chin, that likely withstanding the power shots of the Killa Gorilla, it was a lost but Vettori fight well,

Arman Tsarukyan (1.09) VS Joaquim Silva (7.60) - WIN

There is no surprise in this result but Tsarukyan is simply losing the 1st round Joaquim Silva also landed a hard shot at Tsarukyan at the beginning of the fight but it was all in vain when Tsarukyan retaliated with a takedown then the elbow ground and strike was pretty much the thing that taken Joaquim Silva to sleep,

It was a great fight to watch, even though most of the fight was in decision the Main Event, was the real Main Event Jared Cannonier VS Marvin Vettori have shown great upgrades for both fighters,

Now here are my Bets results,

Marvin Vettori vs Jared Cannonier - WIN

It's a great fight actually Marvin Vettori has shown a lot of heart in this match he was eating too many shots from Jared Cannonier but he surely got a great chin and durability the power shots of Jared Cannonier surely have a lasting effect on Vettori that may damage Vettori's chin and it will never be the same in the next time Vettori fight, but the thing that I was surprised about was Jared Cannonier's takedown game it was a surprising thing for Jared Cannonier to do he outwrestled Marvin Vettori that many fans is expecting has the advantage on the ground, but Jared Cannoier was the one controlling him in the ground

Arman Tsarukyan vs Joaquim Silva - WIN

WOW! Both fighters have shown great striking Joaquim Silva has given Arman Tsarukyan some beating at 1st and rocked him with a big punch that many have thought that Tsarukyan could lose, Arman Tsarukyan was triggered he was a different person after he was hit by Silva, from that he has taken Joaquim Silva to the ground and it was a fast pace takedown than the ground and pound comes next and it was hard rocking elbow that Silva can not defended and so the fight was finished with a TKO ground and pound,

I would have lost an amount as I was planning to bet for Vettori because he was younger.  Cannonier is quite impressive even at such an age he still swinging and taking down Vettori when it should have been the other way around.

Adesanya and him fought already which Jared lost in a UD as well. Since Izzy is not willing to go upper weight class, he might just get a rematch with Jared.  A fight that may not make a huge sale.

Cannonier also known as The Killer Gorilla made a statement making history from this fight with Vettori. In the UFC middleweight category, Cannonier now holds the record of the most significant strikes in a bout with about 241 strikes. Cannonier did not start the fight well, looked shaky, but he did a good job remembering that he wants to beat the champion Adesanya, A thought that must have  pushed him into winning taking on Vettori more aggressively.
I would have loved to see a Knockout, but it just did not get to that.

Owengtam09 was correct. It was a night of the underdogs as it seemed the higher odds fighters won most of the night.

Glad I backed these to win last night as both my bets and several other parlays I had Jared Cannonier won!

That was an epic main event between Cannonier and Vettori, Cannonier breaking the record for the significant strikes landed but that wasn't even enough to put Vettori off his feet, that guy definitely built different, If the game had gone on like typical boxing game with 12 rounds, I believe their could have been a window for Vettori to aim for a knockout, because no ones stays up after receiving such amount significant battering without seeking their own opportunity window. Congratulations to Cannonier too for being able to turn the game completely around after losing the first round to go on to win the remaining 4 consecutive ones. This exactly is what every main event is suppose to seem like, EPIC!!!

Yup! and Ilia Topuria was the likely favorite to win that fight for sure I really think that just like Yair Rodriguez this is a great match to see Rodriguez did a great job in getting that volume of strikes to win the fight and carrying it to the Submission he likely has time that on Josh Emmett cracking him open to execute that triangle choke, for me Ilia Topuria is like Yair Rodriguez he is a calculating dude and his fight IQ is really amazing this is what I likely seeing on what may happen to that next fight looking at Yair Rodriguez win this is likely the path where Topuria could get a win over Emmett,


I really think that underdogs now are very popular to bet on and with this kind of combat sport you will never know who's really going to win, and with that slight idea that this guy could beat the other guy we tend to go with that scenario in betting but betting on the underdog is pretty much common to get a large sum towards that risk you take, a great example is on the last event the UFC 289 Nunes VS Aldana, Charles Oliveira is the underdog over Beneil Dariush and Oliveira won that fight, same goes with Jasmine Jasudavicius and was the underdog against Miranda Maverick and she wins that via decision and lastly with Diana Belbiţă against Maria Oliveira and won it via decision again,
