The Ultimate of Ultimate Fighting Championships

NHL: 51-39-1

MLB: 166-135-7

UFC: 19-10 (11-2 on top confidence picks)

ATP Tennis: 2-0

NFL Preseason: 3-0 ATS

Before I get to tonight's picks, let's recap the last two events. The first UFC event I went 5-1 with my only incorrect pick being Anderson Silva, whose loss shocked the entire world and was talked about non-stop for 2 weeks after the fight. There will be a rematch and I'm doubling down on Silva coming back and taking the rematch. I also had Swanson v Siver for FOTN which hit and was a great bout. Not too much to explain when you pull out an 83% night, especially when I said Parlay my 1 & 2 with everything and my 1 & 2 of course hit, so I hope people enjoyed that one.

As for the second UFC event, it was a weird one. I was on the right side for my big loss which was Loyto Machida - even now every expert on the planet except those three judges in Brazil said Machida won that fight 30-27 unanimous decision.  I don't know what to say except that is was absolute highway robbery. My underdog Magny lost, with his natural reach and body I don't know how he isn't unstoppable, but he lost fair and square and seriously needs to scratch everything and learn how to wrestle/TDD/Submission defence. Vinny Magalhaes simply did not show up to fight, he was a 5-1 favorite and will probably be fired from the UFC for that embarrassment of a performance. My winners all won convincingly, my not going 2 rounds was a very quick fight as predicted. So not great but it was a weird one. My UFC totals nonetheless have gone 19-10 (11-2 on my top confidence picks.) Here's how I see tonight's fights shaking out.
