Week In Review Bellator 283 + UFC London
What a wild weekend of fights. We ended up going +16.47 units between Bellator and UFC events. Bellator was almost a clean sweep and UFC London made us sweat it out a bit, but we still ended up in the green (small. Like really small in the green. +.12 units). Green is green baby.
I usually don’t bring up DraftKings in these breakdowns, but I almost took down the 100k tournament. I literally had the best possible lineup of Aspinall had won that fight. I’m not sure Aspinall wins that fight in a rematch, but I like my chances. To lose the way I did hurt. I would much rather have seen Aspinall get out wrestled or knocked out cold. To lose like this sucks, but it only motivates me. We are good at this shit. The work is being put in and we will continue to win money and take over.
Let’s get into the card. Always things to learn and take away.
Bellator 283
Romero Cotton was a bad pick. Dalton Rosta proved to me this fight he is very legit. He brings massive size and power, along with some decent striking, good takedowns and good takedown defense. I’ll be betting on him going forward.
Magomedov ITD was my biggest play of the entire weekend and it hit so easy. One of the hardest things to do in betting is to pull the trigger on big plays when you feel confident. We are getting a lot better at this. It paid off here
Usman Nurmagomedov is that dude
Jason Jackson is nasty and Lima is done. Will be very happy to bet on Jackson going forward. Some good future matchups for him too
UFC London
Claudio Silva finish only is my favorite bet I made looking back on it. It’s not all about results. That sounds weird to say, but results only come consistently with good reads. So it’s not about results it’s about the reads. If you make the right read, bad beats, bad judging and other incidents will effect you sometimes, but you will still come out on top in the long run. This was the exact right read. Silva almost had that finish in the first round, he couldn’t get it, but as always he is impossible to be put away. We had a small amount of risk to win a lot. It didn’t pay this time, but it didn’t hurt us at all either. We need to keep making smart bets like this
Leonardo was the right bet, but Makwan was very very wrong. I had a feeling this was coming too. I took Pearce in DraftKings, because I knew that path was very possible. Bad bet on my part. Should have left that fight off the betting card entirely
Mason Jones didn’t look like the Mason Jones I taped. I thought he was going to come in and be super aggressive. I thought he would bring the pain and make this a grueling fight for Klein. That just didn’t happen. He let Klein dictate the striking and the grappling. He was never the one going first. Weird performance on his end. Don’t know what to think of either fighter going forward
Nikita Krylov did exactly what we thought. We legit called this exactly. In hindsight I wish I bet more on him and the finish prop. Still nice win with him and Volkov parlay.
Paddy and Molly ITD is what saved our entire night. The barstool effect was in full motion. They just seem to have everything go their way always. Molly and paddy were never losing in London. Glad we pulled the trigger on this.
The main event was a bummer. Injury happened too early to make any reads. Hope to see them fight in the future
