ESPN really pushing online gambling it seems..."free" betting to start...like a drug dealer giving somebody the first fix/hit for free to get em on the hook

Wtf was that? He got kicked in the shoulder and laid down nice and peacefully? Hahahha, PFL is such a joke of a promotion.

I was super impressed with Ospinov...he has amazing striking

Not sure how he ended up dipping into that kick but damn he was out for about 45 seconds

Heckuva fight, this format forced action

haha

I think he caught it in the head

that had zero signs of even ahint of a fixed fight...Wade took 8-10 huge clean shots to the head that could end the night.

clear knee/shin to head

Did i say it was fixed? I just said it looked weird, knee clearly connected but it was at a bad angle. It was a bad attempt at a joke, cant even make a joke without the joke police comes along mad asf?

It was a bad angle. Sarcasm lost in text.

That dude was fighting amazing until that.
Unreal chin on the bigger dude.

I like the promotion...I prefer the heavier fighters but the format is pretty cool

I think Sean O Connell sucks, most of their prospects are super athletic, but nobody really cares cause the format sucks balls, turning a MMA fighting into an actual sports league? Thats fucking retarded, why not just a tournament, which is the format MMA has been going through in all these years. IFL failed miserably for the same reasons.

Also the shameless promotion of Clarissa Shields by putting her up against a can in the main event while much better athletes are getting paid way less on the rest of the card makes the whole thing seem "thrillerish". The whole betting thing is trash aswell, Jonathan Coachman was one of the shittiest personalities on WWE and the fact that I have to listen to him in MMA aswell is close to retarded.

I like Lillian Garcia and some of the fighters, rest of the whole thing is just utter trash. Even the cameras look like they just inserted Lillian Garcia into the cage with CGI.

But yeah the worst thing is the constant mentioning of the live odds and propelling of which fighter is gonna win, which disolves the mystery of which man will come out with his hands raised, since you basically already expect one of them winning from the start hence hes the favorite.

PFL is doing a great job of making me never watch the sport in the rest of my lifetime, if that's what they intend then they are doing a homerun.

I'm enjoying pfl. Won a nice bet on OAM. Dude loses to top guys in the ufc and they throw him a straight bjj guy and hes a underdog. Easy pickings

Now I'm thinking of betting 3-6 brittany Elkin. How does PFL think that bringing a big prospect like shields and putting her up against a girl who has been doing bjj tournaments for years. Elkins isnt trying to strike shes going for immediate takedowns and bjj. I dont know much more than the footage I've watched but if shields isnt stopping those tds or getting a quick ko shes probably going to get grapplefucked real hard

Just so your aware 3/4 fights so far the underdog has won. I always make a ton off pfl and bellator because they have such shit odds and those well thought out plans often fail.

The points format and playoffs make it much better imo. I understand your dislike of the favorites getting good matchups at the top of the card like kayla Harrison but that's a dead division. Everyone thought pettis was gonna do great and hes got zero points and got battered.

PFL is legit

Fights are good but the antics surrounding the promotion just sucks to the extreme, only worse commentator team is ONE FC's. Randy is the only guy who actually puts points across and tries to legitimize the promotion, had to mute with the OOH ands OUUU coming from Sean O Connell.

This Alex Martinez kid would have probably fucked up pettis too. Kids a solid prospect and looking great against last years champ and already beat last years runner up. Kids 8-0 with a bright future. Probably 8-1 after this one
