Sadly we don't get to see Conor get smashed by Rafael Dos Anjos, instead we get to see Diaz get toyed with. I hope I am wrong but I see Conor finishing Nate early.

+0.98 Joe Rogans


Jim Miller beat Diego Sanchez $1.74 (-135) *4 Joe Rogans


Miller wrestling will be the difference, only problem with this bet is Sanchez is the King of gift decisions.

Already on Nate Diaz +280 for 0.5 units, probably add more as the line goes up (+300 now). I just have to bet on him by principle - going up TWO weight classes, and Nate has a pretty good chin? Conor's best attributes are his length and speed - and I'm not sure he has an advantage. Not going to lose a lot here, but cautious. Would LOVE to see him get smoked by Robbie Lawler... or fight someone like Carlos Condit.

Kick, with you on Jim Miller 2.8/2

Also really like Corey Anderson, but think he's parlay fodder with maybe Ilir Latifi?

Any interest in Tate vs Holm? I think Holm's style vs Rousey was perfect for her, but Tate presents a better striker and Tate will try to get inside to dirty box...

Overall 61-44 +61.74 units


Opinions 18-19 +2.75(always .5 unit)


Tate +285 1unit


Playing small on this one and just don't like much else on the card. April 16th will be a max bet as long as nobody gets injured. I use to like betting as early as I could but MMA doesn't allow that anymore with the amount of injuries they have.

The Tate play is based on the odds and I do think there's a chance if Tate uses her quickness she can give Holms some problems. Hopefully she doesn't get jabbed to death and can get 1 or 2 shots at some submission attempts.

Tate +285 1unit

It seems like everybody and their grandmother is on Tate, interesting.

 

[ClevelandSteamers]

Not sure why. Tate is likely gonna get picked apart. Then I see her getting finished against the cage after a few combo's from Holm.

LOVE miller


Also going to take a flyer on Nate as well

He knows how to fight at distance. Now Conor is fast as shit so that could backfire.

the miller line surprised me too.....made me wonder if I`m missing something....maybe sanchez outhustles/outcardio`s miller?.....warrants a longer look.....

I hope holm isn`t a flash in the pan....I noticed that miesha`s really changed up her striking...she really setsdown on her shots and can generate real power(that`s unusual for the women).....but that kind of striking(looking for a big shot) probably a bad strategy vs someone with holm`s wheels.....

miesha`s probably gonna have to grapple holm and I`m not sure theres a physically stronger,fitter girl in that division than holm....she`s a big girl....

I don`t see latifi/.villante going the distance....ata a little under 3-1,i`ll be using it as parlay fodder... `

I'm ready to see how much stronger and quicker Conor is since he's not having to watch his calories. If you've ever cut really hard and held back on what you eat while trying to train then you'll know how much it zaps you. If you do it for long enough and then get to start eating what you want you really feel an abundance of energy. I guess the question could be on whether or not he's gone overboard with his eating and adding weight. I would think they and he could tell in his training if he's slowing down at all.
