My bets have been shut all year. I win on fights I don't bet on, bet on ones and lose. I might just take a break until next year and chalk this year up as an L.
Only thing worse than this year's bets was that Rigo/Casi fight.

It's not even so much the money for me. I wager for the most part to make the fights more interesting, a rooting interest, etc. I just feel I know the sport better than these betting results in 2021. Frustrating.

all the picks you made, except perhaps tanajara being levels above zepada, made a lot of sense. sometimes luck is just bad. its not a lack of knowledge

Understand, I was dormant until McKee, got a cushion now, but all misses this weekend.

Better luck for you next weekend, and whenever I jump back in....
I honestly blame Spence, because everything I bet this weekend was going to be on him. Damn you Spence!!!!

Glad to see the thread still going. Nice winning streak as well Alguiffer!
Trotman, a sharp betting mind on Twitter and myself put together a fast pod for this weekend's betting action. Give a listen if you'd like. Not sure how often we will do it, but it was fun to talk about the sport again.

Action for this weekend: went with Jamal James money line (ML) win over Radzhab Butaev. Could not resist the +100 ML win for James and got in early. Just re-checked the line and the James ML win has weakened to -118 so glad I got in early.

NP man, let me know what you think. One of Trot's picks was a miss, but for an underdog bet, and was a huge upset in that fight. Good luck with your bets this weekend.....

Good hit man!
Miler fight got cancelled which is a shame. I thought that was one he would win. Barraza's whole plan was to ruin the fight for the under bettors. He was in survive mode early.

Seriously considering that Over as well. Line is suspiciously low, imo....expected to see -200ish. Gonna watch Benn-Granados before making a final decision
